#169 The Legacy of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Aug 20, 2020

Show notes

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has come to an end after seven seasons on ABC. On this episode, we examine the legacy of the show from the "Coulson Lives" campaign and series premiere (which was a big deal in 2013) to the show's two endings, and all of the successes and struggles in between. We also look at where the show fits within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's a good thing we have multiple timelines now!

Hosted by Sean Gerber and Paul Hermann.

#165 Self-reflection, learning, accountability, and growth Jun 25, 2020

Show notes

The Black Lives Matter movement is vital if our society is ever going to offer true equality for all. Overcoming systemic racism means examining our own complicity, regardless of our intent. In this episode, Sean Gerber looks at how fandom has contributed to systemic oppression by trying to artificially separate social commentary from entertainment in order to silence the conversations we should be having. The MCU and its fans have not been immune to this. We can and must do better if we are to say the stories and heroes of the MCU offer more than a disposable distraction from the real world. It's time for us to be true to the thematic core of the MCU. It's time to reflect, learn, hold ourselves accountable, and grow.

Show notes

There may be a shortage of news right now, but there are always plenty of questions surrounding the Marvel Cinematic Universe! How should the X-Men and mutants be added into the MCU? Should Galactus be the next big bad? Is Thor set for another trilogy? What are our favorite moments in each phase of The Infinity Saga? These listener questions and more are answered in this episode!

#162 Marvel Studios can (and should) have a panel without San Diego Comic-Con Apr 22, 2020

Show notes

San Diego Comic-Con has officially been canceled. It is the right thing to do and we understand all of the reasons why, but it’s still disappointing. Even so, Marvel Studios has options outside of SDCC and Hall H is the company wants to engage MCU fandom. We discuss Marvel’s virtual panel options on Disney+ (or wherever Disney may want to air it) on this week’s episode!

We look at the new schedule for Black Widow, The Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Panther 2, and Captain Marvel 2. We also discuss Jeff Loveness writing the script for the next Ant-Man film!

Hosts: Sean Gerber and Paul Hermann

#160 What should Disney do with Black Widow? Apr 02, 2020

Show notes

Disney and Marvel Studios, as of this moment, are still planning to release Black Widow in theaters. That's the plan right now, but plans always have the potential to change. This week, we explore the different factors Disney may look at and how VOD and Disney+ could, at some point, become a more attractive option, even for a film set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We also look at how Marvel Studios could use Disney+ to have its own virtual Hall H panels without San Diego Comic-Con.
