Episode 409: What have we here? Matching uniforms?

About this episode

The episode discusses the recent Oscars, new trailers, and various gaming and film news.

The Oscars were this weekend, and surprise surprise, PTA won big, while Chalamet went home with nothing. We also got two big trailers this week, Dune Pt. 3 and Spider-Man: Brand New Day! Pokémon Go was used to farm us for AR images and map data, and Nvidia says we're wrong about DLSS5. Plus we have the Scooby gang all casted for Netflix's upcoming adaptation.
