His father is known as The Mandarin, the leader of the Ten Rings organization and one of the most villainous people in…
I try to stay away from spoilers, but just in case, SPOILERS ARE POSSIBLE for the first three episodes. I have to admit it, but sometimes the MCU exhausts me. Now don?t get me wrong. I love it, especially over the past few years as I?ve gotten more involved in the screening and reviewing and…

Marvel Studio?s latest masterpiece, BLACK WIDOW, is a phenomenal solo movie about Natasha Romanoff, ?a total poser?, aka Black Widow, as she confronts the darker parts of her ledger when a dangerous conspiracy with ties to her past arises. Pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, Natasha must deal with her history as a spy, and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she became an Avenger. This month, Daniel is joined by Cat, Riley, and Jacob to discuss sexism, family, human trafficking, and some great acting!

Do I even have to put a SPOILER WARNING here? Because we will be talking about Black Widow, so?yeah?potential spoilers. I have short hair.

Even so,…
Is anybody better at bringing people back from the dead better than Marvel? Whether its Phil Coulson reappearing in?Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?or Natasha Romanoff receiving her first solo film posthumously (albeit as a prequel), Marvel knows how to maximize the characters that fans have grown to love, even after their apparent deaths. Now, after his ?no…
I mean, who doesn?t think a mutated head bent on murder and ruling the world is adorable? Wait. Maybe I should rewind a little bit. Marvel?s M.O.D.O.K. follows Marvel supervillain MODOK (voiced by Patton Oswalt) who has come to major crossroads in his life. After years of failure in his attempts to defeat the Avengers and take over…
It wasn?t supposed to go like that. After unexpectedly re-arranging the schedule to push Best Picture up and let the acting categories shine, the Academy clearly wanted to send a message. With the foregone conclusion that Chadwick Boseman would posthumously take Best Actor for his work in Ma Rainey?s Black Bottom, it was going to definitively…
Next one up. With seven series and five films (!) on tap for 2021, it?s fair to say that Marvel wants to keep their schedule moving along. As a result, even though we?re only two weeks out from the finale of WandaVision (don?t you kind of miss Agatha already?), the House that Stan Lee Built has already…
