Plug time! A couple months before #thelegendofpontianak shoot, I asked @greenroom136, Malaysia’s best kept secret in urban carry gear (and proud sponsor of #mcyapandfries), to whip something up for me just for the shoot and I got this beauty. And it’s been f**king awesome. I hate having a bunch of shit in my pockets and not only has this thing managed to hold all this crap in it, but it’s also unexpectedly become a really great armrest haha. #thelegendofpontianak #greenroom136 #urbancarry #malaysianmade #handmade #malaysianproduct #worldwideshipping #mcyapandfries #directing #shooting #shamelessplug

Iain and Gavin sit down with some Asgardian ale to discuss the latest adventure for Marvel’s space vikings in Thor:Ragnarok and what could be the funniest Marvel Studios movie so far, although it’s not without it’s dark edges.

We go easy on the spoilers for our review at first before diving into a spoiler section at the end to discuss the finer plot details of the God Of Thunder’s latest exploits and possible directions for the Marvel universe post-Ragnarok, so you’re probably better off waiting to listen to the podcasts until after you’ve seen the movie.
