Book Club: Green Arrow Rebirth Part 1 (Green Arrow: Year One)

In French, "gorge" means throat. In English, it's a movie about giant hole that maybe leads to hell...?

The Film School Janitors watched THE GORGE, starring that guy that flew jets that wasn't Tom Cruise and the witch from a movie about a new mutants. Enjoy!

Apple TV+'s The Gorge Review

Here’s a little story about a trio of janitors. 
Might have heard they worked at a well-known film school.
They picked up a few things other than trash. 
They might hate your movie, or if drunk think it’s cool.
Every now and then they get together for a lunch break. 
Trash talk some movie, or TV, or streaming.
Rodney and Jason and Sean – they all clean halls. 
If you listen close you can hear kids screaming: Film School Janitors!

At your local top-tier film-and-TV school, these three lurk the halls… sweeping… scrubbing…mopping…

What you drop, they pick up.  But that’s not all they’re picking up.

You see, after twenty years of cleaning up after film students, they’ve learned something – most movies are garbage.

So whenever their lunch breaks align, they catch up on the latest Hollywood has to offer.

In between taking out the trash, they’re talking trash.

Rodney – Sean – Jason… They are The Film School Janitors
