FIRST LOOK: The Marvels Trailer!

Hey Everyone,

Paul here…

Marvel just dropped the first trailer for The Marvels, the upcoming sequel to Captain Marvel. The film will be more of a team-up movie than it’s predecessor, with Carol Danvers teaming up with Kamala Khan from Ms Marvel and Monica Rambeau from WandaVision. Of course let’s not forget none other than Nick Fury himself is along for the ride. I think this looks like a blast! Check out the trailer right here:

Our heroes will be facing off against a Kree revolutionary called Dar-Benn (Man, those Kree are just a bunch of assholes). Interestingly she’s seen wielding the cosmic hammer of a Kree Accuser, like the one used by Ronan The Accuser in Guardians of The Galaxy and Captain Marvel.

The film’s villain, Dar-Benn. A dangerous Kree warrior.

Here’s the official synopsis: “In Marvel Studios’ The Marvels, Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau. Together, this unlikely trio must team up to learn to work in concert to save the universe as ‘The Marvels.

Sounds like a hell of a lot of fun to me! The Marvels hits theaters November 10th.

FIRST LOOK: The Marvels! New Poster!

Hey Everyone,

Paul here…

The first Captain Marvel film may have had its detractors, but personally I really enjoyed the first one. I honestly believe that a lot of the hate thrown at this movie is fueled by the misogyny of a relatively small population of the audience. I really liked Brie Larson in the role of Carol Danvers and the sequel, titled The Marvels, will see the inclusion of some interesting characters like Monica Rambeau from WandaVision and Kamala Khan from Ms. Marvel. All three of these characters are connected in very different, but very important way. While I’m sure Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel will be the main focus of the film, it makes a lot of sense to bring these characters together for something closer to an ensemble than a straight up Captain Marvel 2. So I’m definitely looking forward to the next film when it hits theaters later this year.

Kamala Khan AKA Ms. Marvel
Monica Rambeau

The Marvels was originally supposed to premiere in late July, but was recently pushed back to November 10. This seems to be an effort on the part of Marvel Studios to spread their films out a bit more. I think they realized that, over the past couple of years, they’ve oversaturated the market a little. So we’re going to start seeing less MCU Disney+ shows premiering as well as a longer amount of time between new film releases. Which I think is a really good idea. In fact, it’s probably one of the best moves Marvel Studios could make right now. As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. In the meantime, Marvel has debuted a very cool, new teaser poster for The Marvels. I like the inclusion of the three main characters and how it evokes the very cool teaser poster for the first Captain Marvel movie. Check it out…

MOVIE REVIEW: Shang-Chi & The Legend of The Ten Rings!

Hey Everyone,

Paul here…


On this episode of The World’s Best Podcast, we give our straight out of the theater reaction, to latest MCU film, Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings! While not a FULL SPOILER review, a few MAJOR SPOILERS get dropped in our discussion, so listener beware! Instead of the studio, we recorded this in our car, immediately after seeing the film, which is why there’s a little background noise. However, I did want to include some Easter Eggs, interesting background info, and connections to the rest of The MCU, that just might enrich your experience when seeing Shang-Chi.


One of the cool things about Shang Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings, is that certain elements of the character’s history have been present in The MCU, all the way back to the first Iron Man film in 2008. None of this really counts as a spoiler, because it’s nothing that hasn’t been shown in the trailer. is nothing that you haven’t seen in the trailers. The Ten Rings is like a more mysterious, ninja HYDRA. I’m going to elaborate on how the organization was pulling the strings and making moves during some key moments in The MCU. The Ten Rings make their debut in the first MCU movie, Iron Man, in 2008. The Ten Rings were the terrorist organization that kidnapped Tony Stark at the beginning of the movie. They want him to make a weapons of mass destruction but instead Tony plans an escape by building his Mach 1 armor. With that Iron Man, and the MCU, was born. 


In Iron Man 2, it’s revealed that, in a deleted scene, agents of The Ten Rings, helped Mickey Rourke’s Whiplash get past security and onto the race track, where ha attacked Tony in his race car during the Monaco Grand Prix. 


Even in Ant-Man, towards the end of the film the current head of Pym Tech, Cross has finally been able to replicate his hands on Hank Pym’s shrinking technology. Cross, who’s a real sack if shit, intends to sell it to the highest bidders. Many shady buyers showed for the unveiling of the Yellowjacket, Cross’s version of the Ant-Man suit. Including Hydra, A.I.M., several agents of The Ten Rings. If you have Disney+ I’d also recommend checking out the short film All Hail The King, starring Ben Kingsley‘s character from Iron Man 3, Trevor Slattery. Not only is it a really fun little short, it also has a really cool connection to Shang Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings.

PODCAST: Captain Marvel Review!

Hey Everyone,

Paul here…

5E5D407D-64BD-4C84-B96D-903BC9452818

The MCU’s Phase III has been, so far, Marvel’s best set of films yet. Phase III began with  Captain America: Civil War and will wrap up with this April’s Avengers: Endgame.  All of   Marvel’s movies have been, at the very least, solid & fun at their worst and masterpieces at the best. The current renaissance of Mavel’s flicks has largely been the result of the  creation of Marvel Studios, an independent movie studio that produces and has complete control over creative choices.  Kevin Fiege, the head of Marvel Studios, has bee a huge part of the MCU’s success. Disney bought Marvel a few years ago,  but Marvel Studios still remains independent and free to produce films in anyway they see fit.

C3779BE2-8818-40D6-8A27-61D946975503

Don’t get me wrong there are some great movies here, some of the best in Phases I & II include:

Phase I

Iron Man

Captain America: The First Avenger

Thor

The Avengers

Phase II

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Guadians of The Galaxy

Ant-Man

but they don’t compared to the level of quality and experimentation that we saw in Phase III:

Capain America: Civil War

Doctor Strange

Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.2

Spider-Man: Homecoming

Thor: Ragnarok

Black Panther

Avengers: Infinity War

Ant-Man & The Wasp

Captain Marvel

That a pretty fucking great set of movies in Phase III which culminates in Endgame.  Phase IV starts with Spider-Man: Far From Home FYI.

I’m happy  to say that Phases III has not disappointed us with Captain Marvel. This episode of The World’s Best Podcast is all about Captain Marvel.  We are doing a deep dive review of Captain Marvel with full spoilers, so we were there.

Captain Marvel Trailer Breakdown!

Hey Everyone,

Paul here..

The second trailer for Captain Marvel dropped today (meanwhile those sons of bitches over at Marvel keep cock teasing us with the Avengers 4 trailer)! It looks pretty darn good, if I do say so myself! This looks like it’s going to be a fun space adventure, leading up to the epic finale of Avengers 4.

Below I recorded a full trailer breakdown with all of the inside info on connections to the comic book source material, how this movie relates to the rest of the MCU, background on key character and story details, and much more!

All of this is pretty SPOILER FREE, despite some speculation on my part regarding where the movie might go. Unless you want to know absolutely nothing going into this film, you should be ok. You can watch the full trailer here and listen to my audio breakdown below. I’d recommend watching the trailer and then playing it again along with my audio commentary for full effect:
