355: 'The Cloverfield Paradox' Starring Gugu Mbatha-Raw, David Oyelowo, Daniel Brühl

It's the prequel that came out of nowhere. It was such a surprise that even the people making the movie didn't know it was a Cloverfield movie. But leave it to Paramount and J.J. Abrams to keep us guessing, and announce a movie during the Super Bowl that would premiere the same night.


Chris Frank from the St. Louis Blues Podcast is back to discuss the new movie, which is a part of a franchise he loves. While he goes in depth about the mythology, Joey Butts tries to sneak a few more wrasslin' references by us. Tom continues to test Dan's maracas, and Kevin seems to have a crush on a feather duster.


It's Reel Spoilers 355. You've been warned.
