This week the boys talk about the first half of the surprisingly strong Amazon series Fallout. Like seriously, this was SO much better than we expected, it's honestly as shocking as the USSR pumping a ton of nukes our way. What's that? Oh yeah, the USSR is still around in the Fallout series, just like black and white TV's and other 1950's things.... yeah it's a whole thing and we DEFINITELY cover it all in the most graceful way imaginable. Plus we have a full episodes worth of news! There's a new trailer for Joker: Foilé a Deux, they are making a Last Ronin movie (and game which we apparently already talked about on a previous episode) and emulators are now available on the Apple App Store (officially) for the first time! Finally, another place to play old Pokémon games! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week Jake and Ryan jump back into the late 90's to look at this fantastic Disney + sequel series, X-Men '97! They also have a jam-packed week of news, from a supposed Happy Gilmore sequel being developed on Netflix, to a new trailer for Colin Farrell's Penguin, to how music and tv kinda sucks in the modern age. Hey, we do it all on this show. And we're getting older and we like to complain sometimes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We have another bumper episode of news, with some new trailers for the Star Wars Acolyte series, The Crow, & announcements that The Batman 2 is being delayed, a second season of Peacemaker is coming.... sometime... they're making another animated Cat in the Hat movie... in 2026... and that Blade movie is never coming out. Like seriously. Point being, new movies will come out eventually! And rest assured, when they do, Almost Accurate will be here watching them. But in the meantime, we sit and speculate. So why not relax and have some speculating time with us, won't you? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wow that was a long title. I've had to put my thumbs on ice from all of the typing I've just done. Anyways, I guess it's time to write an episode description unless you all think that title is long enough. You know what? I'll say it again. This is about playing Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, and we talk about watching Midsummer and the movie Thanksgiving (the movie, not the holiday. Our review of the holiday of Thanksgiving is like, way different). Also there's some news. Anything we miss?? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The boys have been sick but the news doesn't stop! Jake snagged an Analogue Pocket (IYKYK) which is pretty rad, Madam Web has been a huge 'effing flop for Marvel & Sony, Star Wars is releasing a collection of Battlefront games, and SO SO many more things! Strap in y'all, 3 weeks is a lot of time for news to accumulate and the boys do their dardnest to plow through all this packed in winter news. Lord help us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're joining the 20-million something players that are checking out Palworld! Is it innovative and new and unlike anything that's ever been seen before? Come on now, you know we were joking about that part. The boys also talk Jon Stewart returning to the Daily Show, that INSANE looking Death Stranding 2 trailer, and more in this week's episode! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Almost Accurate has hit 200 episodes and it's a milestone for the podcast. How do the boys celebrate? They lightly talk briefly about Saltburn and mostly get sentimental about everything that's changed in their lives over these past 5 plus years and 200 episodes! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well well well, it's that time of year again.... it's the first week of January, so naturally for Almost Accurate we're going to review the year that was in 2023 in all of the formats of media that were (as long as those formats are movies, TV shows and videos that is). It's an annual tradition for us (except of course for last year when the podcast was paused for some obvious reasons) and we're happy to be back doing it again. We had so much fun recording this one we didn't even bother to try and write any jokes or snarky comments or anything like that, just happy to be here and talk about things that made us happy in the year that was, so pull up a seat, and spin it around like a cool teacher and listen to us review that year that was 2023! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the most wonderful time, IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME FOR THE GAME AWARDSSSSSSSS! That's right folks, it's December once again, and it's time to both watch and recap a 3 and a half-hour commercial for video games and we are happy to once again do it. We've got new DLC for God of War Ragnarok, they're making a new Blade game for the Xbox, Sean Murray got onstage and overpromised once again as Hello Games are making an entirely new PLANET. There's so much to talk about! And we're here for it, once again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ryan has survived a second bout of Covid and the boys have returned with a BUMPER episode this week. Has some news happened in the 3 weeks that we've been off the air? You bet it has. We're talking leaks, rumors, the new GTA VI trailer (that apparently some people on twitter... excuse us, x.com are upset about) and SO MUCH MORE. Also, have y'all been watching Netflix's new version of Squid Game? We kinda hate that it exists but we also hate that we love it. Squid Game: The Challenge is so well done on almost every level that we're hard pressed to not recommend that you at least watch it, because we sure have. So strap in! We've had a couple of weeks off but we're back and clearly have missed each other and hope that you guys enjoy the ride. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Y'all see Showtime's The Curse yet? It's a slow burn in the first episode for a bit but then it suddenly goes 100 MILES PER HOUR AND YOU WON'T KNOW LITERALLY WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO YOU. AM I TYPING WITH MY CAPS LOCK ON FOR DRAMATIC EFFECT OR IS THIS AN ACCIDENT??! The boys also have a TON (see I did it again) of news to get through this week, from rumors that Pedro Pascal is set to join the MCU, The Marvels has done a big 'ole flop at the box office, and Insomniac seemingly confirming that Miles Morales will be the primary Spider-Man going forward, and even more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Just what the title says. How on earth do Jake and Ryan combine the adapted works of Edgar Allan Poe and Sony's latest PS5 exclusive into one episode? How does that even work? Does it sound as disjointed and potentially all over the place as that title sounds? Yes. Well kinda. Both of these are great though so why not put them into one episode together, dontchathink? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

An extra late night recording session has led to an extra silly episode so apologies in advance everyone! The boys have watched the opening two episodes of Loki Season 2 and so far it's off to a great start! Sony has slimmed down the PS5 and fattened up the price tag on extras they want to charge you for, Netflix is apparently trying to start up their own Dave & Busters, Taylor Swift is holding the entire economy together single-handedly, and Ezra Miller isn't going to be the Flash anymore. Wow. No way. Strap in folks and have fun with this one! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's officially SPOOKY SEASON and the boys down at Almost Accurate HQ have been hard at work curating a list of all (or at least 34) of our favorite horror movies and horror movie recommendations for this October. How'd we do? Well Ryan went all out in his list, so if you want to hear us talking about Cabin in the Woods, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, Japanese horror movies and EVEN MORE then stick around for this special episode! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jake has been diving into the Starfield via Microsoft's magical Xcloud, and Ryan has been watching some GEMS of horror movies. That's right, we're talking about The Gate, we're talking about My Bloody Valentine, we're talking about Evil Dead Rise, we're talking Joe Dirt and Joe Dirt 2 (wait maybe those last ones aren't in the same genre). So sit back, and relax as we take you to some far away places and realties in this episode! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ryan has been on a TEAR lately and he's got to tell you all about the Meg 2 and even more importantly (and insanely) They Cloned Tyrone- a Netflix Original Movie which is somehow flying under the radar... but hopefully after this episode, that will no longer be the case! RIP Bob Barker and Jimmy Buffet Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Whew.... my hands are tired from the sheer length of this episodes title, but don't you listener's worry, it's quite dirty with content as well. Jake is a sucker that bought that Read Dead Redemption Re-Release, and also went to see Oppenheimer (which rules btw) Ryan went to see Disney's Haunted Mansion and is bucking the trend of critics who say it sucks (because he thought it was actually a fun and enjoyable movie). So yeah. There's that. You got something to say about that? That King of the Hill reboot can't come soon enough. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Fresh off a summer vacation, Jake and Ryan are back and they have been BUSY. The boys check in on their summer reading, including the newly billion dollar earning Barbie, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: Mutant Mayhem, Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning (Part 1) and, just because Ryan was feeling nostalgic, rewatching the original Fast and the Furious. Ahhh... what a simpler time it was when it was only about family, Corona's, cars, and occasionally stealing some DVD players. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week the boys have a Nintendo Direct to get through, E3 is canceled for the next two years (and let's be honest, probably for the rest of forever) and more! HBO's The Righteous Gemstones is back for a two-episode Season 3 premiere and it is excellent as always, and the boys have also watched Flamin' Hot, the story of the creation of flaming hot Cheeto's which is either a wholesome family movie that tells a great story (if you're a normal person) or it's woke propaganda gone mad (you know... if you're a lunatic). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's time for a colorful and eye-catching swing across the Spider-Verse folks! Also teeing up in the news, Apple is finally realizing that there is money to be made in gaming, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 FINALLY has a release date, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has been delayed (kinda) until 2024, and Will Smith is starring in what looks like a bad open-world zombie game with an even worse title! (It's called Undawn... like what is is that, C'mon.....) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
