"YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE." After the shock success of Iron Man, Marvel quickly put a sequel into production. Problem was, between their acquisition by Disney, their planned roadmap, and a non-negotiable May 2010 release date, this was a project doomed to be rushed, disjointed, and interfered with. However, is it really as messy as everyone says it is? Come join Brian and Alec to find out as they continue Phase One of the MCUathon with the other bump in the road towards The Avengers -- IRON MAN 2!
WOW, LOOK! NOTHING! In the very, VERY early days of the MCU, Kevin was trying to get the various studios that had the rights to Marvel's biggest characters to cooperate with him and Marvel Studios in building his interconnected universe. One that seemed to join him at the start was Universal, as the two worked together to create a new Hulk movie. While nothing seemed to really go wrong, one could say it's clear from the final product why they haven't come together again. So, come join Brian and Alec as they continue Phase 1 of the MCUathon with the often-forgotten follow-up to Iron Man -- THE INCREDIBLE HULK!
"MY TURN." The next Avengers film is about a year out. We have over thirty films to sift through. Let's get started. Back in the day, it was inconceivable to make a franchise connecting a bunch of different solo characters on the big screen the way they were in comics. Back in the day, Tony Stark and Robert Downey Jr. were seen as box office bombs waiting to happen. Little did we all know this was the movie that launched the most profitable film franchise of all time. Come join Brian and Alec to look back at how it all started as they being their MCUathon with the genesis -- IRON MAN!
"TAKE ME HOME."One of 2025's most anticipated and successful movies of the year has finally come out on digital, and it's time for the gang to take a looksie. The Big Blue Boy Scout's first solo movie in twelve years has been a massive hit, but has proven somewhat divisive amongst fans. So, with a menagerie of different viewpoints looking at it, what do we think this time around? Come join Brian, Alec, and special guests Darby (@gwenstacying) and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) to find out as they revisit the film that has the general public believing in DC again -- James Gunn's SUPERMAN!
HERO OR SIDEKICK?As we all know, the 2000's were something of a renaissance when it came to superhero adaptations, all culminating with the golden age that started with The Avengers in 2012. What many people didn't often discuss were the myriad of satires and pastiches that appeared around then that had no clue how ahead of their time they would be. From Kirkman's Invincible to Mazin's Superhero Movie, lots of different things were already taking tropes we knew of and turning them on their heads. In 2005, Disney sought to do the same on a family-friendly level. While it may not have been a smash hit, it certainly left an impact on a lot of us. So, come join Brian, Alec, and special guest Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) as they revisit a childhood classic (that may be more messed up than they remember) -- SKY HIGH!
IT'S WORSE THAN YOU THINK. 2020 was a strange time. We all stayed in our homes. Brian and Alec were doing a different show. And movies were struggling to find new ways to get made. One blooming subgenre, Screenlife, was poised by producer Timur Bekmambetov over the years as the evolution of found footage. With lockdown seemingly indefinite, he was tasked by Universal to prove that this subgenre had enough mileage in it to navigate this unforeseeable future. The resulting film was so historically awful that it came out five years later on Amazon prime after just six days of marketing. Oh boy. Come join Brian, Alec, and special guests Darby (@gwenstacying) and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) as they take a look at what many consider to be one of the worst films in recent memory, Amazon's WAR OF THE WORLDS!
"THIS IS WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE!" Time and again in recent years, Sony Animation has proven to be the bright spot at Sony Pictures. Ever since Into the Spider-Verse, they've taken bold risks and received great reward in turn, and this film has been no exception. Ever since its release nearly two months ago, the story of HUNTR/X has had a chokehold on people, quickly becoming one of Netflix's most-watched films of all time. So, what do we think of it? Tune in to find out as Darby (@gwenstacying) and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) lead Brian and Alec through their first viewing of this year's most popular animated film -- KPOP DEMON HUNTERS!
"THAT'S WHAT MAKES ME STRONG." After James Gunn took control of DC and after The Flash basically killed it it for everyone, a few stragglers trailed behind that were in between cinematic universes. One of these was a silver screen adaptation of Blue Beetle, and many didn't know what to think of it when going in. While the film has had its fiar share of detractors, it has proven to be one of the very few bright spots of the previous era, with pushes being made to include it in the DCU going forward. So, how does it hold up? Come join Brian, Alec, and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) to find out as they take a look at the elusive actually good DC film, Angel Manuel Soto's BLUE BEETLE!
DANCE WITH THE DEVIL. Ryan Coogler has been one of the hottest names in the directing world for the past decade, and for the first time since his freshman outing, he has released a wholly original film. Sinners has been hailed as an instant-classic since its release in April, and it's time for us to dive in. So, come join Alec and Brian as they take a look at what many consider to be the best film of 2025 thus far, Ryan Coogler's SINNERS!
"SAY THAT AGAIN..." After Rise of the Silver Surfer failed to captivate audiences, future plans with the 00's iteration of Marvel's First Family fizzled out. Thus, Josh Trank was brought on board to reboot the franchise with a more modern and serious edge. What resulted was what many consider to be one of the worst comic book films of all time. Oh, boy. Before you see First Steps this weekend, come join Brian, Alec, Darby (@gwenstacying), and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) as they take a look at the travesty that is Josh Trank's FANT4STIC!
"I'M GONNA NEED THERAPY." Kevin Feige's full attempt at making the first good movie about Marvel's First Family releases in one week, so it's time to look back at prior attempts. The 00's were not kind to most comic book characters when it came to movies, and the F4 were no exception. While many remain nostalgic for these films, even going as far as saying nothing can top their cast, they boast a whole lot of issues that were the style at the time, and it's time to dig into each and every one. So, come join Brian, Alec, and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) as they take a look at the goofy, derivative, and bizarrely misogynistic (to the point of Jessica Alba nearly quitting acting) FANTASTIC FOUR and FANTASTIC FOUR: RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER!
THIS MOVIE IS OUR KRYPTONITE. For many years after Superman IV, WB had struggled to get a new take on the Man of Steel off the ground. From Tim Burton's Superman Lives to J.J. Abrams' Superman: Flyby, nothing seemed to stick. It was only at the tail-end of the latter's existence that they decided to make a "direct" sequel to Superman II, with everyone recast and still taking place in modern day. What resulted was a movie that felt like it was written with melatonin for ink. Somebody save us. Come join Brian and Alec as they wrap up the Supermanathon with the movie that very may well have caused the public to be bored with the big blue boy scout -- SUPERMAN RETURNS!
AKA CAVEMAN SUPERMAN: ORIGINS. After the ludicrously underwhelming Superman III, Christopher Reeve swore off the tights forever. However, a script for a fourth installment, one that would touch on topics he was passionate about, convinced him to give it another shot. What resulted was one of the most poorly-made and maligned comic book movies of all time. But we'd like to ask -- is it truly that bad? Come join Brian and Alec to find out as they reach the end of the Christopher Reeve era with SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE!
THE BEGINNING OF BAD COMIC BOOK MOVIES! The troubled production of Superman II would only herald a beginning of wrong choices made with the character. Despite the success of the first two and what made them work, this film decided to shift gears and focus on the aspects not many people cared for. You know what they (Brian) say about bad DC movies. If you don't, come join Brian and Alec to find out as they continue the Supermanathon with the first sign that comic book movies could suck -- SUPERMAN III!
THE MOVIE SPIDER-MAN 2 OWED EVERYTHING TO! Superman: The Movie was generational. So much so that Donner and the Salkinds saw it preemptively and had a sequel made in tandem with the first! Unfortunately, despite the promise of a release the year after, the highly-anticipated sequel was delayed to 1980 in light of Donner being fired and a lot of the movie being reshot. After many years and public demand, his cut wouldn't release until 2006, making do with camera tests and newly-shot footage to fill out the blank spots. So, how did it fare? Tune in to find out as Brian and Alec continue the Supermanathon with Richard Donner's (close-to) original cut of SUPERMAN II!
YOU'LL BELIEVE A MAN CAN FLY! We are five weeks out from the next iteration of the man of tomorrow, which means it's time to go back to where it all began -- not only for him, but for comic book movies as a whole! This classic that introduced Christopher Reeve to the world changed the landscape of blockbuster filmmaking forever, but does it still hold up? Join Brian and Alec to find out as they begin the Supermanathon with the film that defined the character -- Richard Donner's SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE!
LIVE AND LEARN! After the massive success of Sonic 2 -- and with the promise of Shadow in the next one -- fans were eagerly awaiting to see what Fowler and co. would cook up next. The answer was a banger. Yeah, that's it. What, you want another long rambling backstory on the film? Shut up and join Brian and Alec as they revisit what might be the best Sonic film yet -- SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3!
LET'S. GET. BRICKED. For the past fifteen years, Minecraft has risen to being and has remained as one of the most popular games in the world. As Hollywood does, a film adaptation was soon commissioned, and was passed around between different directors before finally landing at the feet of Jared Hess -- director of Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre. You'd think this would allow him to flex his comedic prowess. You'd think this would ensure the movie being decent. You would be wrong. So, come join Brian, Alec, and special guests Darby (@gwenstacying) and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) as they take a look at the first movie requiring brainrot to be enjoyed -- A MINECRAFT MOVIE!
THE END OF THE IMPOSSIBLE! As we gear up for the (supposed) end of this saga, thus do we reach the end of our marathon. After Fallout, Cruise and McQuarrie sought to top the double whammy they previously released with an all-new one -- a two-parter to close out the nearly-thirty-year franchise. However, a worldwide pandemic, numerous delays, a whole lot of money over the initial budget, and a bad release window kept things from rocketing off immediately. Nearly two years later, how does the beginning of the end still fare? Come join Brian and Alec before you see THE FINAL RECKONING to find out as they finish Marathon: Impossible with what used to be called a Part One -- MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - DEAD RECKONING!
"WHAT'S DONE IS DONE, WHEN WE SAY IT'S DONE." After the success of Rogue Nation proved that the franchise had long enough legs to keep going, Christopher McQuarrie signed on to direct the next film -- a first for the franchise. What resulted was what many consider to be not only the best Mission: Impossible film, but one of the best action films in recent memory overall. Time to lock in. Come join Brian and Alec as they continue Marathon: Impossible with the (as-of-now) peak of the franchise -- MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT!
