The Problem With Michael B. Jordan’s Face, Mortal Kombat And Godzilla vs. Kong Surprises, Plus Law and Order: Organized Crime
This week on the Podcast CL and Shawn reunite like Benson and Stabler to give you a rundown of some of the latest movies and TV to hit streaming. We look into the latest HBO Max offerings. First up is the new Mortal Kombat remake. While Shawn openly admits being a fan of the video game, he had not seen any of the previous iterations deeming this was only worth his time by trailer alone. Was he wrong? Well...
Then we follow up with a quick breakdown of Kong vs. Godzilla. This movie gets some extra love because the word podcast was uttered multiple times and Bryan Tyree Henry who is officially a show favorite, gets some real shine.
After maxing out on HBO, we switch to Amazon Prime’s latest blockbuster, Tom Clancy’s ‘Without Remorse’ starring Michael B. Jordan. We tried talking about the movie, but you can’t discuss it without talking about Adonis Creed’s face. Like we said in the podcast, it’s not his fault. He is a decent actor overall. We want him to succeed. It’s just you know.
We wrap up by getting into the latest addition to the Law and Order Universe, Organized Crime. "The Law and Order: SVU" spin-off on takes the character Detective Elliot Stabler and revives him for the new show. We try to untangle the hand-off and decide whether or not it’s worth sticking around. Thanks for listening

Harlem Nights (1989)
As promised, the Madcap Crew finally chopped it up on Derek's favorite movie, 1989's Harlem Nights!
In the waning days of Prohibition, Sugar Ray (Richard Pryor) and his adopted son, Quick (Eddie Murphy), run a speakeasy called Club Sugar Ray. When gangster Bugsy Calhoune (Michael Lerner) learns that Sugar Ray's place is pulling in more money than his own establishment, the Pitty Pat Club, he pays corrupt cop Phil Cantone (Danny Aiello) to close Club Sugar Ray down. Quick doesn't exactly help the situation when he falls for Calhoune's gun moll, Miss Dominique La Rue (Jasmine Guy).
