You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show. The founder of this company 10 years ago was trying to sell his house and went through real estate agent after real estate agent. And they were all talking a great game. And this guy who is selling his house, the founder of this company, he's kind of an important guy and should get the best treatment. And he said to his wife, if this is what it's like for us, how do people who have no clout ever get around this? So he started a company and it went into business, I think, three years ago. Their deal is, their word is their bond. And they are just like you.

Now, how can I say that? Because I'm the founder of the company. We have a thousand agents across the country and they are people that listen to the show. And so when you go through real estate agents I trust, it's sent to somebody who already, you already know their sensibilities. They already are cut from exactly the same cloth. There's got to be a better way. There is.

real estate agents i trust.com X-Men Apocalypse is coming out May 27th I think that will be a decent one have you noticed the superhero thing lately and this again goes back to our desire to escape reality or just that

and I want to say escape reality sounds like we're sticking your head in the sand we're not doing that it's a diversion from reality it's that you know when you have I know any bad news in your life. If you go to the movie, you've got that two-hour respite where your brain can actually get on another track and not think about whatever it is that's bothering you,

making you sad, whatever it is. But collectively as a nation, when we are at a funk like this, going to the movies is a real, it's therapy. You look back at the Great Depression. You look at every time when there's been a crisis in the country, that is what we do. We go to the movies. Pop Star. And this is another angry birds, if you ask me. This opens June 3rd. Pop Star, never stop, never stopping. This is, okay, I'll give it a shot because this is Andy Sandberg.

Is it Jorma? The Cone? Andy Sandberg can be really funny. their YouTube videos, they can be hysterical. I don't know. We'll see what happens in a two-hour situation. It just does not sound all that great. Warcraft, of course, based on the game.

This comes out June 10th and could possibly be decent. This one, I think, is going to be a hit. Now, this is risky because coming up June 17th, Finding Dory is coming out. And this is what the follow-up to, the 13 years, kind of like my Big Fat Greek Wedding, 14 years later.

This is 13 years later for Finding Nemo, the movie that resurrected Ellen's career. She's going to be in this one as well. And this is Dory trying to find her own parents, who are played by Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy. Actually, that sounds funny.

Albert Brooks is back as Marlin, Ed O'Neill, Ty Borell, and Caitlin Olson are also in this. Their voices are anyway. This could actually be good. But again, it's risky because it's kind of like doing the sequel to Gone with the Wind. Did he just compare Gone with the Wind to Finding Nemo? Yeah, I know. But it is.

It's risky because you do. You have such a, I mean, finding Nemo was, for lack of a better word, classic. So it'll be interesting to see what that does. June 24th, and this is another one I'm looking forward to, Independence Day, Resurgence. This is, again, a follow-up, a 20-year follow-up. And it does. It takes place 20 years after the invasion that Will Smith fought off with those great one-liners that they had. We'll see. It's always scary when you do that. BFG, July 1st, this is a Stephen Spielberg project. And it's based on a novel by Roll Doll.

It centers on a young Londoner named Sophie and the mysterious giant who introduces her to the wonders and the perils of giant country. And again, this BFG, by the way, stands for big, friendly giant. So this could be an interesting movie as well. Legend of Tarzan is coming out in July. David Yates is the director of this one. Alexander Scarsgard is the title character in this one.

Obviously he's been eating a lot of salads and doing a lot of sit-ups because he's in pretty good shape. July 15th, this is another one of those where they've taken a movie and kind of turn it on its head. Ghostbusters is coming out July 15th. but this time it's all women Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Whig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon. Chris Hemsworth is also in this, and Michael Kenneth Williams. I don't know. Do you take, what is the, I guess he goes intent, what is the reason that you've taken this movie and you decided to cast as all females? I mean, it could be funny.

Melissa McCarthy is funny. Kristen Wigg, I love her. And so that's one of those. I guess you just have to wait and see what they're going to do with it because otherwise it just, I don't know. We'll see. We'll see. It's always risking when you do that. All right, more movies coming up as we continue to escape reality.

Another one of my favorites. We'll talk about that next here on the Jeff Fisher radio show. Brad Stikes filling in on the Blaze Radio Network. Here we go. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
