Origin stories. A common trope all too common in today’s comic book movies. BLUE BEETLE tells the story of Jaime Reyes being chosen by an alien scarab to be its symbiotic host giving him extraordinary powers and thus becoming a superhero. Alan & Chris share their thoughts on this superhero’s beginnings as well as sample four trailers for upcoming films in a segment Alan entitles Trailerpalooza (a.k.a. Trailer Tapas).
