S1 E27: "Fantastic Four" (#13) - with David Neary!
Description
In one of our absolute best episodes yet, our wonderful longtime pal David Neary joins us to discuss one of the most picked-apart films on our list, Tim Story's 2005 adaptation of FANTASTIC FOUR! We discuss the series' comic origins, the difficulty with adapting these earnest, perennially-arguing Silver Age characters to modern screens, genre's cinema's fundamental buy-in w/r/t suspension of disbelief, and the revelation that we all secretly kinda liked this? We delve into TopTrumps, Heroclix, and the delicious Flame-Broiled Whopper(©)!
As I said, we had an absolute blast on this episode, one of my favorites that we've done so far, and you should absolutely check it out!
