On this episode of The World’s Best Podcast, Mike Cole joins me for a trek into the heart of darkness… THE ACOLYTE! The latest Star Wars series from Disney+, sure was… something.
Viewers shouldn’t expect to see a second season anytime soon. Because the series has been officially cancelled by Disney and Lucasfilm. So what better time to look back on this controversial Star Wars project? In our FULL SPOILER deep-dive into the season, we cover the “good”, the bad, the really bad, the terrible, and everything in between! Enjoy and thanks for listening!

One of the most highly anticipated upcoming films is undoubtedly James Gunn’s Superman (originally titled Superman: Legacy). Now we have our first official look, at our new Clark Kent/Superman, David Corenswet, in the new Superman suit! Check it out…
On this episode, we analyze the image of the new suit, and what it says about this new version of The Man of Steel (which is a lot more than you might think). We also take some time to sing the praises of the incredible new Disney+ animated series, X-Men ‘97.
A lot of fans have been speculating as to the identity of the seemingly alien entity attacking Metropolis in the background of the photo. Some have suggested it could be Solaris The Tyrant Sun, an evil, sentient, artificial sun, seen in the image below.
The character has appeared in stories like Grant Morrison’s DC One Million and All-Star Superman.
In the podcast, I mentioned a video James Gunn put out last year, going into detail about what to expect from upcoming DC Studios projects. It’s really cool and informative, and must watch if your a DC fan:
The first look at the latest bug screen incarnation of The Last Son of Krypton is always a big deal. Below are the debut images of Brandon Routh as Superman in Bryan Singer’s 2006 film, Superman Returns and Henry Cavill in 2013’s Man of Steel directed by Zack Snyder.
Both images are an interesting contrast to this new “first look” at Superman. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and the debut pictures for Superman Returns and Man of Steel bring to mind words like: strength, power, classic, godlike, and heroic. It’s no accident that in comparison David Corenswet’s Superman comes across as far more human and down to earth. The 2 images above evoke heroes from Greek mythology. While James Gunn’s Superman looks more like a fireman, putting on his battered gear to answer another emergency call (a far more heroic image in my opinion). But I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!
Lastly, I think everything about this first look at David Corenswet as Supermen, and everything about it, was very carefully chosen. I think it tells us a lot about the kind of Superman film he’s making.
Recently, Gunn posted this comment on Twitter (yes, I know it’s X now, but dammit I’m not calling it that)
He went on post the below images of the Superman stories that were influencing the movie The examples he chose only made more confident in his ability to this a special film…

I certainly like what I see, but at the end of the day we’re painstakingly going over every detail of ONE photo. As fans, we tend to over analyze everything. Especially when it comes to our most beloved figures. Others have said, and I happen to agree, that you can’t get a sense of how well a superhero costume works, until we see it in motion on screen. I think that’s when we can actually judge the latest take on Superman’s iconic uniform. Again, let me know what you think!

On this episode, Paul and Ryan review the fifth installment in the beloved Indiana Jones franchise, Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny! This episode contains FULL SPOILERS, so check out the movie, then come on back and listen to our full discussion and review!
Below the links for the podcast, you’ll find my Podcast Afterthoughts, as well as the excellent retrospectives of the first four Indiana Jones films, by Mr. Sunday Movies, that we mentioned in the episode.
I love Indiana Jones. I even say in this episode that I’m big Kingdom of The Crystal Skull apologist. So I can get pretty passionate when talking about my favorite big screen hero. If you listened to the episode, you know there was one aspect of the movie that REALLY, REALLY didn’t work for me and I spent a lot of time on the topic as we discussed Dial of Destiny. In hindsight, I wanted to make it clear that despite it’s issues, I really liked this movie. It’s a solid Indiana Jones adventure. Because I grew up with this character, and I brought so much emotional baggage to this move, I’ll probably have to see it at least one more time in theaters before I really get a sense of how I feel about it. I could see someone listening to this episode of the podcast and thinking I hated the movie and that was not the case at all. So to wrap things up, I just wanted to clarify my feelings a little bit. Anyway, thanks for reading and thanks for listening! We really appreciate it!
MR. SUNDAY MOVIES; CARAVAN OF GARBAGE – INDIANA JONES
In the weeks leading up to The Dial of Destiny, the guys over at Mr. Sunday Movies took a look back at each of the first four Indiana Jones movies, and the videos are a blast to watch and funny as hell. The co-hosts, James and Mason, have hilarious takes on each film and the character of Indiana Jones. But unlike so many other movie YouTubers, they aren’t cynical or negative for the sake of a laugh. These guys love movies like this and it comes through even when they’re making fun of them. I highly recommend their YouTube channel and their weekly podcast. Check out their fantastic breakdowns of Dr. Henry Jones Jr.’s original adventures, right here:

This article is probably a little late to the game, but I wanted to put my two cents in anyway, so I appreciate your indulgence. Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3, is the latest installment in Phase 5 of The Marvel Cinematic Universe. Director James Gunn has always said that the 3rd film would the swan song for this iteration of the team. The final film telling the story of a group of broken people, coming together to form an unlikely family. Helping each other heal from the traumas of their past, to become something better. Of course, other great characters like Mantis, Nebula, Yondu, Kraglin, and Cosmo have joined the family of the course of the films, but the core team has always been Peter Quill, Drax, Gamora, Groot, and Rocket. The original team that we fell in love with almost ten years ago.
Vol.3 is with out a doubt, Rocket’s movie. While all of the characters are expertly handled, and each have their moments to shine, this is Rocket’s story through and through. Vol.3 brings the character’s arc, across the Guardians and Avengers films, to a beautiful and satisfying conclusion.
To be clear, just because this is the conclusion to this iteration of the Guardians of The Galaxy, that doesn’t mean that we’ll never see these characters again or they’ll never be another Guardians project. James Gunn is concluding the story he began telling with Guardians of The Galaxy in 2014. It’s just like how TheMCU’s The Infinity Saga concluded with Avengers: Endgame, but The MCU continued on. The new status quo that we have by the end of the movie, offers up some intriguing possibilities for future projects in this corner of The Marvel Cinematic Universe. Anyway, you can check out both episodes of our two-part Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.3 podcast below. FULL SPOILERS for all of The Guardians of The Galaxy films, as well as Infinity War and Endgame. As always, thanks for listening and enjoy!

As you’ll hear in this episode, one of my favorite things to talk about is Tom Cruise and the INSANE stunts he does in his films. Above is a picture from the zero-gravity, plane crush stunt from 2017’s The Mummy, that I mentioned in the podcast. Tom Cruise has done a lot of bat-shit crazy stunts over the years, so I thought it would be cool to post this video, showcasing some of his most impressive stunts performed throughout his illustrious career…
