In this episode, we dive into Weapons, the recent film from director Zach Cregger, unpacking its spiritual themes and the cultural conversations it sparks. From its layered storytelling to the moral questions at its core, we explore how the film challenges and engages its audience. This full discussion is available now on YouTube.

In this episode of Sacred Frames, Jeff Cook, Sean Palmer, and Mike Yager dive deep into Marvel’s new Fantastic Four—a film loaded with potential but plagued by missed opportunities. We explore the movie’s central moral question: Would you sacrifice one life—your own child—to save the world? Along the way, we compare this film to The Incredibles, unpack the themes of motherhood, cosmic hunger, and accountability, and ask what’s next for the MCU as it heads toward Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars. Plus, a hilarious game of “Dr. Doom or God?” you won’t want to miss.
