Our friend Alex had to interview us for a college class and it turned into more than an hour of some seriously honest and transparent dialogue about our relationship.

Originally Published Over At Love Thy Nerd, Hector once again puts Chris to shame by seeing Captain Marvel before Chris does and has a bold proclamation to make concerning its standing in the MCU rankings. In a spoiler-free discussion the duo talk about impressions, easter eggs, and why Hector’s daughters were obsessed with the first Marvel woman led movie in the MCU.
