Not only would Speed be a rip-roaring action thriller that would get your heart racing throughout, it would also launch Keanu Reeves career into the stratosphere and pull him from the shadow of Theodore “Ted” Logan.

We finally did it. We reached the end of the MCU…or at least our desire to talk about these movies in podcast form. This Endgame in both film and podcast tradition has been a long time coming and we brought back Samantha Garrison from the Sam Wise podcast to help us bring this saga to a close.
Yewsiff, Fetter, Leysa, and Taslinn find themselves in a prison, this time atop a mountain instead of under it.
