Marvelous! Or, the Death of Cinema

Justice League, or Two Guys One (Good) Cut

In this luxurious, deluxe episode the crew bring you two movies for the length of three: Justice League (2017) and Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021). We outline the troubled production and personal tragedy that led to Snyder's ouster from his superhero magnum opus, and how WB brought in noted male feminist Joss Whedon to work his MCU magic, soy-up the grim epic and bring the runtime down to a svelte one hour, fifty-nine minutes and fifty-nine seconds. Disaster ensues, then a phoenix rises from the ashes - after fan outcry and studio desperation, a undulturated four hour original cut is produced and released in 2021. We watched both. We liked one. Tune in to find out which, and much more, in this must-hear episode.
 
*The 'Stu Cut' of this episode will be released in 2024 pending fan outcry.

UNLOCKED - A Marvelous! Special Report: We Need to Talk About Ezra, or Who Watches the They/Thems?

With the release of The Flash on the summer movie horizon, we're unlocking our Patreon bonus special investigative report on Ezra Miller and their crazy ass 2022. 
WB-Discovery cancelled basically everything except their upcoming The Flash movie, the basket in which the newly forged juggernaut of classic films, DC superheroes and Shark Week has decided to put all their eggs? Ezra Miller. Once indie darling (alleged) turned blockbuster star (alleged) turned raving groomer psycho (alleged) turned messianic cult leader (alleged). Why, in the era of MeToo, has WB pinned their fate on a powderkeg combination of Jim Jones and FF7haus? We don't know, but we're going to find out* in this Marvelous! special celebrity gossip true crime investigation.*We may not in fact 'find out'. Offer void where prohibited.

TEASER: Cara Delevingne’s Eyebrows

Thor Ragnarok, or Taika This Movie and Shove It

On this episode Stu and Cole bully Nicole for enjoying things. Cole tells us about Thor and Hulk in comics, and how the MCU films have sold them both short. We discuss how a film that seems to want to be so whimsical and colorful seems to fall so flat, and how director Taika Waititi seems totally apathetic towards if not contemptuous of fantasy and science fiction: The small-minded and unimaginative cynicism that deflates the wonder and spectacle from Marvel's adaptations of it's more cosmic and psychedelic material. Also everything is on a green screen and half the cast are clearly never on set at the same time.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, or Turtle Penis! (w/ Andy) [BONUS]

In this special bonus episode, Andy from Those Good Old Fashioned Values joins the pod to walk us through a retrospective on the formative years of this generation spanning cartoon franchise, its origin in independent comics, and a discussion of the surprisingly well-crafted and endearingly corny 1990 live action film. But first, Nicole makes a horrifying discovery about Turtle biology.

Logan, or Children of X-Men

What if they made a comic-book movie... for grown ups? It's Logan! It's Wolverine! Remember Wolverine? He's old and sad. He says fuck. He chops dudes arms off. Professor X says swears and poops his pants. Everybody dies in the grim dark future of six years from now. We liked it ok, it's good but not as good as you remember, but we get to enjoy some great performances, fun gore, and discuss just what it means to make a 'mature' superhero story.

Wonder Woman, or Waiting for Godot (To Learn How to Act)

Nicole reckons with her cringe girlboss past, Stu spergs about how badly they got WWI wrong, new permanent third mic Cole has some wild shit to tell you about Wonder Woman comics lore. How could you take something as wild as a demigoddess created by a Freudian bdsm polycule and turn it into this bland rehash of First Avenger? How could you take a solid cast of stars and character actors and force them into orbit around the dead cold star that is animate mannequin Gal Gadot? Why did people like this movie? All this and much more on Marvelous!

Spider-Man: Homecoming, or Peter Parker Custody Battle

Cole (@java_jigga) returns once again to help us out with Spidey's grand foray into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (and Disney shareholders' wallets), Spider-Man: Homecoming. After a prolonged and ugly custody battle, Sony begrudgingly offered Marvel Studios to share parental rights over their little baby cash cow, and the result is yet another genre pastiche with the visual tactility of a Verizon commercial.
