On this episode of Now Conspiring, Maria takes a week off as Adonis, Bridget, and Sam count down their top 3 favorite film trilogies of all time in celebration of War for the Planet of the Apes. There is a bit of an overlap in their lists, as well as a few surprises, and, as always, plenty of nonsensical tangents.
Later on, we read some of your comments and briefly discuss our excitement for War for the Planet of the Apes.
Question of the Week: What are some of your favorite (or least favorite) movie trilogies of all time? Also, don’t forget to leave any questions you may have for our Reunion Episode in the comments section of this episode, last week’s episode, or on our facebook page linked below.
Extra question: Rice or Noodles? (Blame Adonis)

This week, Now Conspiring saw a double feature and we tell you everything we thought of Edgar Wright’s Baby Driver and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Sam, Maria and Jenny talk about their thoughts on Baby Driver and its incredible style and rich soundtrack. We gushed too much about this movie, but we’d still love to hear your thoughts on it in the comment section.

Later on, Adonis Gonzalez joins us to discuss his favorite superhero. Warning: more gushing happens and a whole lot of hazing.

Things become a little confusing and upsetting when we discuss the upcoming sequel to Jumanji. With the latest trailer released, we rant about the changes and wonder how many more sequels will ruin our childhoods.

Question of the Week: This week we ask for your questions for our upcoming Q&A episode and reunion of Now Conspiring members. You can leave your questions in the comment section or on our Facebook page linked below.

This week we get together to discuss some classic movies we have been meaning to watch for a long time. Sam gives his opinion of Casablanca, Maria crossed off Psycho from her list and Bridget finally saw Pulp Fiction. Some were impressed by these films. Some were not. Can you guess who?
We also bring back a shorter version of Bridget’s Science corner, where Bridget discusses six new science facts discovered this year.

By the end we were faced with the most difficult Kiss Marry Kill ever. Friendships ended as consequence.

Better late than never. In this super late episode of Now Conspiring, we dive into Ridley Scott’s franchise and discuss what made it so great and whine about all the questions that are still unanswered, even after watching Alien: Covenant.
Before our science fiction rant, we talk about real science in our very first Bridget’s Science Corner! It is quite a treat with a great reaction track provided by our Sam Noland.

 SIDE NOTES: Jenny had to leave at some point during the show, which is why she suddenly doesn’t have any opinions about anything we talked about but we later added her outro so you don’t forget how freaking great Jenny is. As if you’d forget…

It aggravates us to know of these amazing actors that don’t receive the praise or fame they deserve. In these week of Now Conspiring, the gang talks about their favorite underrated actors. As expected, we had major issues with the word ‘underrated’ and some actual Academy Nominees made it to our list. I know. We apologize. Before that we play a new game suggested by one of our listeners, Kiss Marry Kill. You will be surprised who Bridget picks to marry in order to explore the universe. Later on, Bridget discusses her mixed feelings for King Arthur: Legend of the Sword and then geeks out with Adonis about their unconditional love for Baby Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2.

We have a full house on this week’s episode. RAK (aka Khan) and Jenny Pan join the podcast along with Maria’s best friend, Evie. After lengthy introductions and many fun tangents, we go around the table to talk about what we have read or watched in the past few weeks. This is quickly followed by Evie saying very embarrassing things about Maria that can never be unheard. Later on, we play Guess the Disney Song! Where Jenny is overconfident, Sam is confused by everyone’s hardwired knowledge of Disney and a lot of yelling from everybody involved. It is important to note after a certain point, Sam unofficially quits the game and continues to play his computer game, which we were all able to watch. In case you hear anyone saying ‘Sam! You nearly died’ or ‘Sam exploded’, we mean the game. Question of the Week: What is your favorite Disney song? Survey:  Don’t forget to put in your two cents for our podcast name change.

Just because they are famous, doesn’t mean they live up to the hype. This week on Now Conspiring, we talk about the actors and actresses we consider overrated but not before playing a good ol’ round of Would You Rather. We also discuss a little bit of what we did during our Easter weekend and our family traditions like ultra-challenging egg hunts. Later on, we reply to all of your comments which were all mostly related to 13 Reasons Why and how it could negatively affect people suffering with depression.
