    X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

    PREQUELITIS!  This week we're going back to 2009 for the Writers' Strike Special:  X-Men Origins: Wolverine.  Come see how a boy named James gets all his iconic things:  his names Logan and Wolverine, his mortal enemy, his sayings, his claws, his jacket, his belt buckle, his catchy phrases, his dubious morals, his motorcycle, and his lack of memories!  Logan forgot the events of this film, but we sure haven't! 

    On Keep or Cancel, we're talking about the best hobbit, Dominic Monaghan!

    X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), directed by Gavin Hood and starring Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, and Ryan Reynolds is available on Disney+.

    Review - Madame Web

    Review - Madame Web

    Madame Web, Madame Web, does whatever a blind lady hooked up to a web of life-support who can predict the future and is intrinsically related to Spider-Man does!  This movie may be dead-on-arrival for most, but we wouldn't be us if we didn't give it the time of day!

    Madame Web is in theaters!

    The Last Airbender (2010)(Guests: Sabel & Blake's Takes)

    Water. Earth. Fire. Air.  Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the M. Night Shyamalan attacked.... In honor of the Netflix live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender coming in just 7 days, we are tackling maybe one of the biggest disappointment in film history: M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender. 

    Instead of Keep or Cancel, we're calling our good friends Blake and Garrett from Blake's Takes for their thoughts!

    The Last Airbender (2010) is available on Paramount+.

    Review - Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom

    This is it, the very end of the DCEU.  I can't say I'm either shocked nor happy, but here we are.  I couldn't get to the theater for a few weeks, so here's our review finally.

    Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom is in theaters!

    Aquaman (2006)

    Aquaman (2006)

    Happy New Year! With Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom in theaters, we're going back to our roots by reviewing the Aquaman TV pilot episode from 2006.  Originally a spin-off of Smallville, this Alfred Gough and Miles Millar show could not be more of a product of its time. 

    On Keep or Cancel, we're talking about surprise actors Ving Rhames and Adrianne Palicky.

    Aquaman (2006) is not available for streaming or purchase, but can be found, if you know what I mean.

Sabel’s Takeover needs a sequel

Found this bc I’m listening to another podcast and did a search for Batman & Robin, stumbled randomly on this podcast. My favorite podcast is when they were forced to watch Twilight against their wills. I vote for another Twilight episode!!

I do have a request though: Sam Rami’s Spider-Man and also should do some episodes based on the unmade sequels and react to those ideas as a bonus gift to us.

Great topic!!!

I found this podcast after deciding I wanted to dig into non-MCU super hero movies! I found over time - a lot of bad and some good. After watching Ghost Rider, I found this podcast. Very fitting it was was episode 1. Now I’m hooked and enjoy this podcast. Look forward to what you guys do in 2022!

My name really is Thor ,

Great show. You’ve made a new regular listener. Just one thing…how did you not call it Fantom Zone?
