The Bumblebee trailer dropped and we are over the moon with excitement for what looks like the first good Transformers movie since the first one. Why are we psyched? Maybe it’s the appearance of classic Transformers like Soundwave, Starscream and Ravage or maybe it’s the fact that they actually look like the Transformers of our youth or maybe it’s John Cena. Regardless, we are excited and we talk about it a bunch on the latest episode of Mai Tai Happy Hour. 

We also discuss the recent comments by Disney head honcho Bob Iger that Star Wars fans should expect a slowdown in the quantity of movies coming out, even though the problem with the Star Wars franchise isn’t the amount of movies but the lack of a coherent structure to the storytelling. We go deep on how they could fix it. I rant endlessly about how shitty geek boxes like Loot Crate and Marvel Collectors Corps have gotten in recent months and we finish off with a sad tale of the death of choose-your-own-adventure creator Telltale Games. All that, and Hambone teaches us how to make a cocktail.
