This week, Steve and DJ are back in the home theater diving deeper into their road to Avengers: Doomsday, with a big focus on X2: X-Men United and X-Men: Days of Future Past. They talk through why X2 still holds up as one of the best early superhero sequels, from its stronger character work to its excellent surround sound design, while they also dig into the possibility that its inclusion on the watchlist is really about reintroducing Nightcrawler ahead of Doomsday. They also go off-list for Days of Future Past, a movie they both think is outstanding and maybe even essential viewing because of how it plays with altered timelines, consequences, and “borrowed lives” in a way that could connect directly to what Doctor Doom is doing next.
On the home theater side, the guys get into why both films are still terrific demo material, especially Days of Future Past with its powerful bass, immersive action, and standout 4K presentation. They also branch out into a few other highlights, including early praise for Resident Evil, which they think could end up being one of the year’s most fun horror releases, plus a quick revisit to Barbarian, where Steve admits he's still not fully won over by the movie even though the disc presentation is strong. They also check in on their growing Doomsday countdown, tease upcoming reviews like Captain America: The First Avenger, and start planting the seeds for a vampire-themed October lineup.
