Thought Bubble 41, Part 1 – DC Rebirth, DC Films, DC Shows and Preacher
Thought Bubble | | 31. May, 2016
A podcast about Comics Pop Culture!
Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fanatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back for more comics discussion!
New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by a guy who just re-read Garth Ennis’ Preacher, Da7e Gonzales of Geek.com and Latino-Review.com
No matter your level of engagement, if you’re interested in comic books and their surrounding pop culture, this show’s for you!
THIS WEEK: Too much has happened in comics and comics related media in the past few weeks that this week’s Thought Bubble comes in two parts!
PART 1 – Much ado about DC Comics. Not only has DC Rebirth #1 rebooted the universe with a twist, but Geoff Johns C.C.O. of the comics has ascended to create DC Films to oversee future film entries. Then, The Flash and Arrow fail to stick their season landings, but that doesn’t mean we’re not in a Golden Age of DC TV with Supergirl jumping to the CW in the fall. Finally, Da7e and Joanna discuss AMC’s Preacher, since Joanna loves the show and Da7e just finished a re-read of the comics.
PART 2 – Kicking things off: did Marvel really just make Steve Rogers a Hydra agent? Then, both Da7e and Joanna have seen X-Men: Apocalypse, undoubtably the oddest installment Bryan Singer has contributed to the franchise. Things they like get overshadowed by things that they don’t and the whole chain of decision making leaves everyone puzzled. Finally, SPOILERS for Thor: Ragnarok, we check in with the new official casting and Da7e applies that to what he thinks he knows.

STORM OF SPOILERS – Casual Causal Loops
Storm of Spoilers | | 25. May, 2016
A GAME OF THRONES PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO TALK ABOUT SPOILERS
With Joanna Robinson from Vanity Fair, Dave Gonzales from Geek.com and Neil Miller from Film School Rejects!
If you're looking for spoiler-free dissection of the highest caliber, or reading along with Season One of the HBO show, you're looking for A CAST OF KINGS (click there)
Welcome back to A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This is the Storm of Spoilers episode for Season 6, Episode 5 "The Door."
WOW. Okay. So…
Neil, Da7e and Joanna band together to take on this groundbreaking (and heartbreaking) episode of Game of Thrones. Sansa's doing great and Da7e has hope that Littlefinger knows what he's doing. Neil and Joanna try to find hope for people who hope #TarthBane can wrestle their way into canon. Jorah is fine, and it looks like he might be off to travel the world. Where, d'ya'think?
Arya sees a play, a new Red Priestess rattles Varys and Da7e is kind of mad that ALL THAT KINGSMOOT BUILD-UP was for one scene.
All that plus – oh yeah – HODOR.

120 – Time Travel is Tricky
It’s Not A Paradox
This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David fix their audio and deliver a whole show! AMC has finally brought a Preacher adaptation to screen? Is it working for our hosts, who didn’t read the graphic novel (except for Da7e, who did)? Then, Independence Day: Resurgence released an almost 5 minute trailer. That is too long. Finally, SPOILERS FOR GAME OF THRONES in segment 3 when we debate the perils and perks of time travel in an ongoing narrative.
