Best Bits of the Week with Morgan.

It's listener Q&Daytime.

Where Morgan and a show member answer almost all your questions.

Happy weekend, everybody.

It is still birthday week for Mr. Mike Deistro.

It's kind of like a birthday celebration this weekend. Yeah, I guess it is still. It's belated, but it's still a celebration because I think everybody gets a week to celebrate their birthday at least. A week. I'm hard taking a day. I mean, but you deserve to feel special for an entire week, if not a month. I mean, it's your birthday month. Yeah, I guess I've always just been weird about birthdays. Yeah. Well, I think you should be celebrated. So that is why you're joining this best, but I don't know if that to you. It's a present to me. So might need to figure that out. Anyways, we got listener Q&A time. Mike D is joining me and he did

have a fun birthday this week. If you want to hear about that, we'll talk about some other stuff

on part one. But for now, Carly from Oregon would like to know your must-see movies this summer

because you are movie Mike DeSro. You have a movie podcast. People consider you an expert.

In theaters, my number one movie, not even just of the summer, but the entire year is Wolverine and Deadpool. Oh, yeah, that's coming out in July, right? Yeah, at the end of July. And I've been waiting for this movie for so long because, first of all, Marvel is kind of scaling back on how many movies they do a year. This is it. This is all we get this year. Yeah, just one. They're getting kind of out of that world of building all these things. They're still going to do an Avengers movie probably in a couple of years. But for Marvel fans, like this is the event of the year. And a lot of people are saying that this is going to be the one they need to put them back on the map, which I don't really feel in my eyes that Marvel is falling off,

but a lot of people feel like their quality is kind of diminished and you make a few bad movies and then suddenly people jump ship. I haven't jumped ship. I love Wolverine. He is a top three-year superhero for me. Okay, because Spider-Man's number one. Who's that number one? Batman is number two. Not Marvel, but in just superheroes. It's Spider-Man, Batman, Wolverine is in that third slot. Got it. Okay. Okay. So do you think it's going to live up to the expectation? I hope so. We just, well, my wife hadn't seen any of the Deadpool movies, so we just watched one and two. I forgot how good they are. Did she like them? She did like them.

Okay. Well, my wife hadn't seen any of the Deadpool movies, so we just watched one and two. I forgot how good they are.

Did she like them?

She did like them.

Okay. Because you kind of have to be into the R-rated humor and she's just a big Ryan Reynolds fan that she ended up enjoying them. Yeah, they are a bit vulgar. Yeah. Yeah. I still think part one is better than part two, but I feel like with the third one, and I kind of forgot like how much you made fun of them in one and two and how much this movie actually makes sense because for a while there, I just kind of felt like it was a cash grab. They're bringing back Hugh Jackman to be Wolverine. They're throwing them in a Deadpool movie. But when you look at the movies, it actually makes sense that, oh, yeah, he would be in a Deadpool movie eventually. So I think it's going to live up to the hype. Yeah, and they are friends in real life. So that also, I think, builds a lot of chemistry between two people, just in general, friendships, relationships. I feel like that, like, real life friendship chemistry is going to come to life on screen.

That's what I'm hoping for anyway. Yeah, that's a big part of it. Yeah, where they really mess with each other all the time. Yeah, because for me, I get a little bit tired of Ryan

Reynolds humor because I feel like he is the same in every single movie, but I feel like it's

Deadpool and that persona that's really amplified that and people know him for.

So if I'm going to go to watch Ryan Reynolds, be Ryan Reynolds, I want to see him as Deadpool.

Nothing else.

I wish he would do different types of characters in different movies.
