Huntsman

With returning guest Joe Reid of Decider!

This week, Katey, Patches, and special guest Joe Reid of Decider and the Extra Hot Great podcast gaze into the magical mirror of their local AMC multiplex and wonder, “Mirror, Mirror, on the 60-foot wall, which fantasy franchise is the fairest of them all?” The answer is not The Huntsman: Winter’s War. Plus, your answers to our Elvis and Nixon-themed lightning round question.

Thought Bubble 39 – Prepare For Civil War

Captain-America-Civil-War-Key-Art

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 Spider-Man fan,  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: Joanna and Da7e are back, although there isn’t a ton of comic book news discussed outside of this year’s Eisner Award Nominations. Otherwise, Da7e has seen Captain America: Civil War and Joanna hasn’t so there’s a spoiler-free prep section (spoiler free in the sense that you should know Black Panther and Spider-Man are in this movie already). Then, recent Doctor Strange and Iron Fist developments has the duo revisiting how actors of Asian descent are getting the shaft. Finally, a quick jaunt through The Flash (Zoom!), iZombie (Joanna loves it!) and Agent Carter season 2 (Da7e caught up)! Oh, and The Killing Joke comes up again because WB released the trailer for the R-Rated animated Batman film.

It’s a review menagerie!

This week, Kitty Rich, Matt Pooches, and David Ehrliphant brave the wild for Disney’s reimagined Jungle Book. Jon Favreu’s live-action take wants to be like the original, wants to walk like the original, and wants to talk like the original. FITWR’ll see if it’s true. Plus, answers to our talking animal lightning round question.
