Back for another comic book movie, I lure Mom in with promises of Colin Firth without spoiling/warning that he violently kills dozens of people! In our episode on Matthew Vaughn\\u2019s Kingsman: The Secret Service we talk for a bit about my mom\\u2019s legs, she confuses the first scene for the second scene and vice versa, and I rely completely on what she tells me about Pygmalion; the Shaw play, not the myth, as there are decidedly fewer statues to fall in love with. Somehow, we briefly mention Donald Trump, because I\\u2019m sure he\\u2019ll love the media attention. I try to get to the bottom of what framing of violence is worse to my mother\\u2019s sensibilities, in order to gauge whether or not movies that question why, as a society, we enjoy violence as entertainment are less offensive to her \\u2013 and therefore possible future episodes.
\\nFor this episode\\u2019s Trailer Time, Mom gets to choose from the Aquaman and Shazam! Comic-Con trailers and picks the latter, which is a choice I approve of.
