Avengers: End Game was not just a film with a great storyline and excellent performances. It was an paralleled, unifying experience that we shared with a room full of fellow fans. We were as ONE for 3 hours and 2 minutes. We cried and cheered together...some of us even hugged it out afterwards. A movie that can move an audience in that manner, is indeed unique.

Avengers: End Game was an "end cap" for twenty-one films that fans invested time and emotion into. And what an ending it was!

In this transmission of Anomaly, we talk about everything from the passing of Peter Mayhew (the actor who played Chewbacca in Star Wars), how End Game treated Black Widow and Captain Marvel, loving Peter Parker...in a mom way, getting a little verklempt with everyone else in the theater, and much more.

Go to the show notes for links to the things things we discussed in this episode, like Angela's waterproof mascara, Peter Gunn's PG Porn, and the MCU Recap featured at The Alamo Drafthouse.

It's taken a while for SciFi to get a foot-hold as a serious genre. Yet even now some cinematic SciFi still gets panned and under appreciated. Angela and Jen want to challenge that idea. So they have each picked an underrated Sci fi movie that got an unfair shake. Check out their second look at Passengers (2016) and Æon Flux (2005). Æon Flux is available to watch on Netflix and Passengers will be broadcast on FX starting May 3, 2019.

Our chat on “Jose Chung’s from Outer Space”, was originally released around 2008. In it we discussed the comical X-Files episode, which may just be the best ever.

Stick around after the credits for this edition of Anomaly to hear the first half of the episode, where we talked about the last few episodes of Ronald D. Moore's Battlestar Galactica.

To find more classic Anomaly episodes that are not currently available in our feed,  head over to our Archive to find episodes dating all the way back to 2007.

Thanks for listening, we'll be back next week with a discussion about the women of Marvel and "Captain Marvel".
