Jay has been diving into Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance on iPad, a tower defense game bursting with cartoon charm and clever pop culture easter eggs. Its lighthearted tone and strategic depth make it easy to pick up but tough to master. Shua has been moved by Sentimental Value, an Academy Award–nominated drama starring Renate Reinsve, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, Stellan Skarsgard, and Elle Fanning. This emotional story of estranged family members reconnecting delivers powerful performances and a heartfelt punch.

Sci-Fi Saturdays -

Enjoy Video Games! 

This week we journey back to 1986 and celebrate the revolutionary release of The Legend of Zelda, created by Shigeru Miyamoto. Inspired by childhood exploration, fantasy literature, and a desire to let players discover secrets on their own, Zelda dropped players into Hyrule with no hand-holding and no instructions beyond a wooden sword and courage.

We relive dungeon bosses, secret bombable walls, cryptic old men, and the unforgettable music composed by Koji Kondo. From Aquamentus to Ganon, from Second Quest surprises to Silver Arrow victories, we explore why this game still resonates four decades later, and why sometimes the best adventures are the ones where nobody tells you what to do.

Have you played through all of The Legend of Zelda? Let us know! First person that emails me with the subject line, “You have acquired a sword!” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com

What we’re Enjoying

Shua has been diving into Reacher, where the towering former military policeman dispenses his own brand of justice with quiet intensity and very loud punches. Based on the Lee Child novels, the series delivers tightly constructed mysteries and satisfying payoffs that make it perfect comfort viewing for action fans. Jay is revisiting Twin Peaks Season 1, soaking in David Lynch’s wonderfully strange blend of soap opera melodrama and unsettling mystery. Between cherry pie, coffee, and cryptic dream sequences, it’s a masterclass in mood and quirky storytelling that still feels fresh decades later.

Sci-Fi Saturdays - 

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay looks at the forgotten sci-fi gem Colossal (2017). Gloria (Anne Hathaway), an out-of-work woman struggling with alcoholism, returns to her hometown only to discover she may somehow be connected to a giant monster attacking Seoul. It’s a clever, genre-bending mix of kaiju chaos and personal drama, blending big sci-fi spectacle with intimate character study. Hathaway did a great job, and Jason Sudeikis plays against type in a role that’s equal parts charming and unsettling. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.  

Enjoy Movies! 

The 1990s were packed with massive sci-fi blockbusters! But what about the ones that didn’t dominate the multiplex? This week, Jay and Shua explore the fascinating middle tier of 90s science fiction: the cyber-thrillers, alien shootouts, dystopian futures, and existential thought experiments that lived just outside the spotlight.

From cult classics to genuine box office swings, they discuss why some of these films faded from pop culture memory while others quietly built loyal fanbases. It’s a nostalgic, lighthearted look at the ambition, weirdness, and undeniable creativity that made 90s sci-fi such a strange and wonderful era.

Jay has been diving into Wonder Man, calling it a refreshing Marvel character study with sharp humor and strong performances. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley bring an unexpected buddy dynamic that makes the show feel smaller in scale but bigger in personality.

Sci-Fi Saturdays - 

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay talks about Ghost in the Shell (2017).  Despite the controversy surrounding casting, this live-action adaptation delivers striking cyberpunk visuals, philosophical undertones, and slick sci-fi action.

Enjoy Animated Love! 

Love takes center stage this week as Jay and Shua explore romance through the lens of cartoons, comics, sci-fi, and action movies. The guys draft their animated “Hall Pass” dream dates, complete with ridiculous vehicles, over-the-top adventures, themed dinners, and end-of-night finales that range from volcanic lairs to jazz-filled swamp picnics. It’s equal parts sweet, absurd, and deeply committed to the bit.

Then things go multiversal as iconic movie couples get scrambled in a romantic crossover event no one asked for but everyone secretly needs. From cyberpunk warriors to action heroes and sitcom sweethearts, the mashups spiral into hilarious hypotheticals filled with explosions, existential dread, and neon heart emojis. It’s Valentine’s Day, Enjoy Stuff style.

He’s still enjoying the journey and is happy to know a third season is already on the way.

This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay looks at Life (2017), a tense and claustrophobic sci-fi thriller about scientists aboard the ISS discovering a rapidly evolving life form from Mars.

Enjoy The Moon! 

This week, Jay and Shua take a giant leap through the Moon’s long history in fiction, film, and real-world exploration. From early writers imagining lunar voyages to Hollywood’s evolving obsession with moon bases, secret missions, and alien mysteries, the Moon has always been a perfect sci-fi playground.

They also look at how real lunar exploration influenced pop culture, from the Apollo missions to the upcoming Artemis II launch, and why the Moon continues to inspire stories across science fiction, fantasy, horror, music, and comics. Whether it’s astronauts, superheroes, or werewolves, the Moon always finds a way to steal the spotlight.
