Welcome back to Geek Freaks! In this episode, Frank and Squeaks break down the latest in geek culture, including the horror-inspired Clayface movie, a new director for the Street Fighter film, and an exciting new Avatar: The Last Airbender sequel. Plus, we dive into our Question of the Week—which video game stresses you out the most? And don’t miss our special interview with Moroni Aguilar, the mind behind Myth Maker Submission! Stay tuned for our short review of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and the latest updates on Marvel Rivals, DC crossovers, and more! Timestamps & Topics 📌 00:00 – Introduction & This Week’s Topics 📌 00:23 – Interview Preview: Moroni Aguilar (Myth Maker Submission) 📌 00:31 – Question of the Week: Which Video Game Stresses You Out the Most? 📌 04:01 – James Watkins Directing DC’s Clayface – A Horror Take on a Batman Villain 📌 07:31 – Sakurai Takes Over Street Fighter Movie – What Can We Expect? 📌 11:02 – New Avatar: The Last Airbender Series Announced – What We Know 📌 17:08 – Marvel Studios Bringing Back The Defenders – Is It a Good Idea? 📌 23:09 – Marvel and DC Are Teaming Up Again – Best Crossovers? 📌 27:32 – Marvel Rivals vs Overwatch – How Blizzard is Responding 📌 39:04 – Leaked Pokémon Collection & Hellfire Gala Event in Marvel Rivals 📌 47:10 – Review: Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man – Worth Watching? 📌 49:49 – Closing Thoughts & Call to Action Sponsor: FREAKS20 https://www.magicmind.com/FREAKS20 - 20% off for one-time purchases and subscriptions. Key Takeaways ✅ Clayface is getting a horror-style film directed by James Watkins ( Speak No Evil ). Could this be DC’s first true horror movie? ✅ A Street Fighter movie is in the works, but its director’s background in comedy ( Eric Andre Show, Twisted Metal ) raises concerns. ✅ The new Avatar series follows an Earthbender Avatar who is hunted by humans and spirits alike—adding a fresh twist to the universe. ✅ Marvel is bringing back The Defenders, but will characters like Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist be able to stand on their own? ✅ Marvel and DC’s new crossover comics will be published separately by both companies—who will do it better? ✅ Blizzard is revamping Overwatch in response to Marvel Rivals, introducing a perk system, more ultimates, and 6v6 modes to compete. ✅ Marvel Rivals leaks hint at an X-Men Hellfire Gala event, with Emma Frost as a new character and potentially Gambit, Nightcrawler, and Rogue on the way. ✅ The Pokémon collection leak suggests a re-release of Gen 1–3 on the Nintendo Switch—a must-buy for classic fans. ✅ Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man changes too much from traditional Spider-Man stories, making it a lackluster adaptation. Memorable Quotes 🎤 "Clayface could be DC’s version of The Thing —pure body horror. I’m all for it!" – Frank 🎤 "Street Fighter needs to embrace its over-the-top fighting. If they go full comedy, I’m out." – Squeaks 🎤 "Avatar has always been about growth.

And for once, they actually are." – Squeaks 🎤 "Marvel vs DC crossovers are a geek’s dream. But please, let’s get Brainiac & Ultron teaming up this time!" – Frank Call to Action 💥 Enjoyed this episode?
