In Episode 287 of Movie Podcast Weekly, you will learn about Ryan’s connection with the late Verne Troyer (aka “Mini Me”), as well as Andy’s connections with Time magazine, Sports Illustrated and an RV driver from “Independence Day” (1996)! No foolin’. We also welcome back a special guest who is a literal tennis expert, “The Coach” Scott Welsh (on Twitter: @SWelsh66). Scott joins us to help Jason Feature Review Borg vs. McEnroe (2018). We also bring you other weirdly titled Feature Reviews, including I Feel Pretty (2018) and Beirut (2018) and Braven (2018) and Bullet Head (2018). We also bring you a very short Part 1 of MPW’s 2018 Summer Movie Preview, which primarily consists of pre-Avengers: Infinity War hype and speculation. Oh, and we also bring you our favorite memory pertaining to a summer blockbuster popcorn movie! Join us! #DiscountJasonMomoa
