Spy

Description

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are chewing gum and kicking bad guy asses… and we’re all out of gum in the 2015 film from Paul Feig, Spy.

This film is a breath of fresh air. It’s a healing tonic when the world gets to be just too dang much. It’s a thrilling adventure story with amazing action, heartwarming friendship, and creepy Italian men. What more could a person want?

I’ll tell you what I want: a sequel to this wonderful film!

What the hell is happening out in Hollywood that a new adventure featuring the surprisingly badass Susan Cooper isn’t already a reality? It’s been years since this film came out. Give us a Spy 2, you cowards!

I’d be willing to put some money down that everyone involved with this first film would love to do a second. Where are the speed bumps? What could possibly be slowing things down? Readers/listeners, rest assured that if I had movie producer levels of money, then I would make the sequel happen in a heartbeat.

I don’t, unfortunately, but the spirit is there. Regardless, give us all more of this goodness. We deserve it after the last few years, wouldn’t you say?
