Friends! Today we bring up our favorite Superhero of all time: Spiderman. Who has the best franchise? Did Far From Home hit you in the feels? Is Nick Fury an example of a good leader? How do you energize a story so your audience doesn't blank on you? Does Carlos really know everything? Coming up next on Commentary No One Asked For.

Today we jump into our first Japanese Anime film, A Silent Voice. We talk about social issues like bullying, abusers and their victims, forgiveness and how Carlos might be a crazy parent one day. What would you do for your kids in the event of bullying?

This episode is all about the Spaniards. Literally. We discuss a popular movie set in Spain, that was shot completely in Spanish with English Subtitles. We were pretty mind blown too. Besides being stoked about hearing something outside of English, we were also pretty excited about the costumes and the fairies and Alx's imaginary friends... you can ask her about it. She doesn't mind.

A short sweet vignette of one of our favorite animated movies... Also, there's some talk of parenting styles, growing up second gen, following your dreams, being patient in relationships, multiple reasons to love (and hate) Disney, and Alx shares a sweet moment. Carlos too but like mostly Alx.

On this episode we dive deep into the little known movie Upgrade. This podcast takes on the topics of AI and whether or not humans should be evolving the technology. Are machines really taking jobs away from the general populace? And most importantly... we hear Alx sing.
Special Announcement at the end.
On this week's podcast we talk about the importance of family and what that actually means. Which member of your family is more important; exactly how many betrayals does it take to make you a jerk; is the government trying to divide us; and honestly, why can't we all just get along?

Today we breach the movie Bodied, found on Youtube Red and produced by Eminem. A story rich with the elements of the underground rap battle game, we delve into topics surrounding the racial tensions in the movies. What is racist/sexist? What is Rap culture? Are racial prejudices exacerbated in music? And the ever popular: is it possible to have an internal black woman as your identity if you yourself are another race?
No. In case you were wondering, the answer is no.

In this special episode, we talk about some of the themes of the heart warming classic, Back to the Future. We discuss hit topics like: "Where were the parents in 80s movies", "The importance of the Bromance", and the ever popular "Don't say racist *insert expletive here* if you don't want to get knocked out."
Special dedication to Carlos' father: Edin Alvarez, thank you for the many gifts and talents you left behind. We'll carry you with us always.
On this episode, Liza takes the lead and introduces us to the wonderful cinematic world of Crazy Rich Asians. We discuss cultural movies, the haters, what is what like growing up second generation, Alex's first crush, and that amazing wedding scene that made everyone crazy. Join us.
In this episode we discuss the allegations of Bird Box being a Quiet Place knock off, actors with disabilities, inclusion, and that one time that Liza was type cast as a small nerdy Asian... which she is... It also gets a little heated towards the end but don't worry, if we were going to break up it'd be because someone stole food and probably nothing else.
We discuss how the "White Voice" affected our social groups; why intelligence isn't measured by race, and how you can't trust everyone who has the same background as you. Also, we've decided Capitalism might be a bad idea when there are naked horse men around.
We discuss the nuances of #notmyLuke, Episode 8 rewrites, Cyberbullying, the destruction of the Jedi Order and oh... that one time Ally may have possibly slapped the soul out of Carlos.... unintentionally of course.
We continue our conversation on why Tony didn't have to die, the way Marvel shook up Hollywood, and a crazy Aunt May story that we're all happy didn't get the green light.
What did Avengers Endgame do to our Mental Health, society, and the future of film? Also, and more importantly, who else could have snapped?
We share our thoughts on the latest Spiderman movie; the animation, the music, adult Peter and what was most important in Into the Spiderverse... New York.
Also Spiderman. He's great!
We wrap up the rest of our Captain Marvel commentary while considering the impacts of footwear in superhero movies and in life. Conclusion: Girls don't run in heels.
In this portion of our Captain Marvel discussion we ponder on her new iteration, the reception of the movie, and make a connection between Brie Larson and Chris Hemsworth... It makes sense we promise.
