There was a LOT of news coming out of SDCC 2022. And there will be MORE coming soon from D23. For now, though, Ben and Samantha run through the announced movies and TV from the Marvel side of things. Post-credit, we talk about DC. It's a much shorter conversation.

It's time for the first MCU character to have a 4th movie to have his 4th movie. It's time for us to talk about it. It's all here: Thor Mighty Thor Many other gods Guardians Korg Rock music Goats Jokes…so many jokes… Ben's second most anticipated MCU appearance of a comic book favorite character As […]

We're back with another Disney+ series! This one was a lot of fun (for us – “us” being Ben and Samantha) and it got us thinking both about how things were when we were kids . . . and how things are for Ben, as a parent of teenagers!  There was a real energetic vibe […]

The Multiverse mess begun in Spider-Man No Way Home . . . or maybe in Loki . . . come to a head here, as a young hero with universe jumping powers is threatened by a witch who wants her power. And Doctor Strange stands in the gap . . . So much going on […]

Moon Knight completes its limited series run with an ending that could lead into more . . . but also could very easily end right here. Either way, Ben and Samantha talk about “Asylum” and “Gods and Monsters”, following the format of our previous episode. Did we like it? Well, yes. Next: Dr Strange and […]

For the episode, because of some busy-ness and some scheduling difficulties, we combined to talk about episodes 3 and 4! In these episodes we are finally getting close to some answers. The answers we are getting close to seem to bring up more questions, but there's still two episodes to reveal everything, right? That's a […]

Moon Knight continues with episode two! Some mysteries are explained! Some mysteries get deeper! Some powers get revealed! Some suits get summoned! Also, we catch up on some feedback and Ben feels really bad about how long it took to get it . . .

A new series premieres! A new pilot episode debuts! A new hero arrives! It's MOON KNIGHT! This series is one of the most stand alone MCU entries since Iron Man! No references to events you may have missed if you weren't watching all the movies and TV series. No surprise returning characters. Just a new […]

MORBIUS has arrived! Finally! Ben goes solo on a spoiler-free review . . . Sort of a preview of his thoughts on the movie, Ben told Samantha and Stewart they could take this movie off and didn't need to feel the urgency of an MCU movie (even though this is technically an MCU movie). This […]

HAWKEYE ends here. And yet . . . perhaps this is just the beginning? All the threads get pulled together for a Christmas party. Bad guys show up, people fight, and in the end the question is finally answered: will Hawkeye get home in time for Christmas???

The past has a habit of creating problems for people. And if you're people who are also superhero people, the complications are even worse! So Clint and Kate are going to find out, anyway, as they move toward HAWKEYE's conclusion!

HAWKEYE's partnership with Kate continues to grow, even as Kate's mom disapproves. There are maguffins to find! And people getting in the way . . . including a Black Widow?!? (The most unsurprising surprise so far . . . but that doesn't mean it's not emotionally satisfying to see . . .) Will Clint be […]

We continue our coverage of WHAT IF…? with the SEASON FINALE . . . the Watcher is done watching! Now he's gathering a team, Avengers-style! Who does he gather? All the protagonists from the previous episodes! What are they going to do? Just take down a god-robot!

We continue our coverage of WHAT IF…? with a commentary styled episode. Sync your Disney+ account to 33 seconds in and watch along with us! If you want. It's totally not necessary. So what if Ultron won? Well, if Ultron won it would set up a cliffhanger ending that would be concluded in the next […]

HAWKEYE is here! And he brings with him . . . a new sidekick who wants to be him; Christmas cheer; fight scenes; a dog; a lot of looking back to the past; some hints to the future! Will Clint be home in time for Christmas? He'll need a Christmas miracle!

We've moved to new servers, and the move was fairly uneventful BUT we did lose on post in doing so… SO we are re-uploading our Spider-Man: No Way Home review. Sorry if this causes any problems for you! Spider-Man: No Way Home has COME and so has a host of new conversational topics! Things like […]

We moved to new servers for the website, which resulted in the lose of two posts. Sorry for the inconvenience if you get this episode twice! HAWKEYE is here! And he brings with him . . . a new sidekick who wants to be him; Christmas cheer; fight scenes; a dog; a lot of looking […]

Continuing our “WHAT IF” coverage, we take a look at an episode that's not our favorite. The “Party Thor” episode. It asks the question: “What if the MCU were a sitcom?”

THE ETERNALS are here!!! But is the vehicle they came in any good? No, not the Monolith inspired spaceship the characters use in the movie (that's so rad!!!) — we're talking about the movie that brought the characters into the MCU!!! Everyone seems to have an opinion about THE ETERNALS, and Samantha and Ben both […]

By now you probably know the answer to everyone's favorite Marvel related fake gameshow — “IS? IT? MCU!?!” — when it comes to VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE. If you don't know the answer, well, we spoil the ANSWER in the beginning of this episode, but we don't spoil the details. Not right away. This […]

What if Killmonger got an earlier start with his plan to destroy the colonizers and take over Wakanda? Well, his plan would start with rescuing Tony Stark from the Ten Rings! Join Ben and Samantha as they talk about it!
