Summer rerun of the Planet of the Apes

We're recording a Biggs on Film for Raiders of the Lost Ark, so we've got a summer rerun this week.  But it's new to this feed since we're pulling from the cancelled Reel Roulette podcast where Zac Lachenbruch and Biggs break down a 1968 science fiction classic scene by scene:  Planet of the Apes.

We review Suicide Squad and even though we promise to spoil, it is spoiler free.  Then we discuss Arrow, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow, and sexism baked into superhero shows and movies.  Luke Cage, Daredevil Rebirth, Jessica Jones, Stranger Things, and animated movie:  The Killing Joke get some time as well.  Brent Beardslee sits in.
