Don’t worry, the crew picks all the favorite titles! Although many of the guys are familiar with anime, that doesn’t mean that they have even the slightest clue what the plot of this anime favorite is. Speaking of popular titles, Chris wonders how much of Stranger Things was inspired by this movie. Finally, do street gangs need to step up their game?
