Min 5: THUMBERBOLTS: Marvel encuentra pandilla random para remontar Después de años salvando (y a veces arruinando) el mundo, el Universo Marvel pone el foco en los que siempre quedaron al margen: los antihéroes, los que cargan con cicatrices, errores y secretos. Thunderbolts reúne a un grupo de personajes rotos —Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), Red Guardian (David Harbour), Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) y U.S. Agent (Wyatt Russell)— Todos son reclutados por la directora de la CIA, Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), para llevar a cabo misiones encubiertas. Sin embargo, pronto descubren que han sido manipulados y se ven obligados a unirse para enfrentar una amenaza mayor. La crítica ha recibido el golpe de efecto de Marvel de buen grado y ha destacado su enfoque más cercano y emocional en comparación con entregas anteriores del UCM. En Rotten Tomatoes, la película cuenta con un 88% de aprobación, y en Metacritic, una puntuación de 68 sobre 100, indicando críticas favorables. Thumberbolts sale del Filtro Luchini con un meritorio notable. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas MIN 18: LA BUENA LETRA: Masterclass de Loreto Mauleón La directora Celia Rico Clavellino lleva al cine la aclamada novela de Rafael Chirbes y con una más que buena aceptación por parte de la crítica. La película se centra en Ana (interpretada por Loreto Mauleón), una mujer que sobrevive con esfuerzo en un entorno marcado por la carencia, el silencio y la represión. La narrativa también explora las secuelas psicológicas de la guerra a través de Tomás y Antonio (Roger Casamajor y Enric Auquer), hermanos cuyo intento de reconstruirse tras la derrota revela profundas heridas y contradicciones. Para nuestros críticos se convierte sin duda en la película de la semana y en una de las cintas españolas del año. NOTA EDC: 4 estrellas Min 27: BIENVENIDO A LA MONTAÑA: La fórmula infalible Comedia italiana dirigida por Riccardo Milani, protagonizada por Antonio Albanese y Virginia Raffaele y que llega a España tras arrasar en la taquilla italiana. Un veterano profesor romano, logra que lo trasladen a una pequeña escuela rural en el Parque Nacional de los Abruzos. Gracias a la subdirectora Agnese y a sus nuevos alumnos, se integra rápidamente en la comunidad. Sin embargo, cuando todo parece ir bien, se anuncia el cierre inminente de la escuela por falta de inscripciones. Michele y sus compañeros emprenden una carrera contrarreloj para evitar el cierre y mantener viva la escuela. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas Min 29: RITOS OCULTOS: Folk Horror con sello british Ritos ocultos ofrece una exploración del terror rural y las creencias ancestrales en una comunidad cerrada. Aunque presenta una ambientación lograda y actuaciones destacadas, su narrativa convencional puede no satisfacer a quienes buscan una propuesta más innovadora dentro del género. NOTA EDC: 2,5 estrellas Min 34: L'histoire de Souleymane L'histoire de Souleymane, dirigida por Boris Lojkine, es una película francesa de 2024 que ofrece una mirada intensa y realista sobre la vida de los inmigrantes en Francia. La historia sigue a Souleymane, un joven guineano sin papeles que trabaja como repartidor en bicicleta por las calles de París mientras se prepara para su entrevista de solicitud de asilo. Durante dos días, la película muestra su lucha por memorizar una historia ficticia que le permita obtener la residencia legal, reflejando las dificultades y la precariedad que enfrentan muchos inmigrantes en situaciones similares. NOTA EDC: 4 estrellas MIN 36: SEPTEMBER SAYS Debut como directora de la actriz franco-griega Ariane Labed, es una inquietante exploración de los lazos fraternales y la identidad femenina, ambientada en la costa irlandesa. Basada en la novela Hermanas de Daisy Johnson, la película narra la historia de July y September, dos adolescentes que, tras un incidente escolar, se refugian con su madre en una casa aislada. Allí, su relación simbiótica y cargada de rituales se ve desafiada por el despertar sexual y la irrupción de traumas familiares. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas Min 37: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON JUAN SOLO En este nuevo capítulo de “Estamos de Cine” abrimos una línea directa con Guadalajara para hablar con alguien muy especial. Él es periodista, uno de los mejores paladares musicales de nuestro país y una de esas voces que ya forman parte de la familia de Radio Castilla-La Mancha. De hecho, cada sábado toma el testigo de este programa con su espacio "Solo con música". Sí, hablamos de Juan Solo, que hoy nos confiesa qué película ha sido clave en su vida. Y ojo, porque su nombre artístico ya nos da una pista clara Min 39: ESPECIAL BSO EL PAPA EN EL CINE Y en esta semana especial de precónclave, colocaremos el diván de las bandas sonoras en el corazón del Vaticano. Si te digo que Ángel Luque nos trae una selección de bandas sonoras vinculadas a la figura dle Papa en el Cine, seguro que te vienen varios títulos obligatorios: desde la propia Cónclave, hasta Las sandalias del pescador, pasando por los Dos Papas o el Tormento y el Éxtasis.

Langsam verabschiedet sich der Sommer mit den letzten warmen Tagen. Doch kein Grund zur Wehmut: Endlich haben wir wieder Zeit, uns an kühlen Abenden gemütlich mit einem Schmöker zurückzuziehen. Karla und Günter empfehlen diese vier Bücher als stimmungsvolle Herbstlektüre: In Sarah Brooks‘ Debütroman reist eine junge Frau 1899 im Zug von Peking nach Moskau. Das „Handbuch für den vorsichtigen Reisenden durch das Ödland“ ist eine Mischung aus Krimi, Fantasy und Steampunk – und eine ernsthafte Konkurrenz zu Netflix! Paolo Cognetti erzählt in „Unten im Tal“ von zwei ungleichen Brüdern, die in einem Dorf im Piemont aufwachsen. Ein melancholischer Bergroman voller Magie und Sprachkraft. Dagegen erinnert „Aufruhr der Meerestiere“ von Marie Gamillscheg an ein modernes Theaterstück. Meeresbiologin Luise hat Karriere gemacht und kommt zurück in ihre Heimatstadt Graz. Dort wird sie von den seelischen Verletzungen ihrer Kindheit eingeholt. Düster und unglaublich spannend ist „Die Schwestern“ von Daisy Johnson. In einem unheimlichen Cottage kommen die Schwestern Juli und September einem traumatischen Vorfall in ihrer Vergangenheit auf die Spur. Die Titel dieser Folge: Sarah Brooks: „Handbuch für den vorsichtigen Reisenden durch das Ödland“ (C.Bertelsmann), Paolo Cognetti: „Unten im Tal” (Penguin Verlag), Marie Gamillscheg: „Aufruhr der Meerestiere“ (Luchterhand), Daisy Johnson: „Die Schwestern“ (btb) +++ Viel Spaß mit dieser Folge.

Nick August-Perna complex documentary feature TELL THEM YOU LOVE ME explores the story of Anna Stubblefield, an esteemed  Rutgers University professor who becomes embroiled in a controversial affair with Derrick Johnson, a Black man with cerebral palsy, and who has been non-communicative since his earliest days. Using a highly disputed technique Anna says she unlocked Derrick's mind from his body by teaching him to communicate using a keyboard. In addition to Anna Stubblefield, we hear from Derrick's brother John Johnson, their mother Daisy Johnson and a variety of academics and doctors who lend their perspective on the relationship and what follows from it. The relationship eventually leads to Anna's arrest and a high profile criminal trial that would challenge our perceptions of disability and the nature of consent. Through exclusive footage and interviews with those on both sides of the case, the film weaves a riveting and endlessly nuanced story about communications, race and sex. Director and co-writer Nick August-Perna (The Oxy-Kingpins) joins us for a conversation on going about gaining the cooperation and trust from the participants, including Anna Stubblefield and her mother, finding a balanced approach to telling the story and his joy at seeing how TELL THEM YOU LOVE ME seems to resonate with audiences at film festivals, 2023 Hamptons International Film Festival, and the 2023 Montclair Film Festival where it won the jury awards for Best Documentary Feature and now as the most popular documentary on NETFLIX.

Episode 107: Using fiction as a way to educate, heal and connect This is an interview on using fiction as a way to educate, heal and connect. I absolutely loved recording this episode and I hope you love the stories that Jolene shares with us.  From Jolene: In my stories I've focused on the effects of fertility on women, the men who care for them, and small town culture around issues of fertility. In my stories, I've chosen to use specific and medical jargon and terms relating to, specifically, women's health issues to bring awareness. I've written stories about infertility, miscarriage, pregnancy, high-risk pregnancy, pre-term labor, endometriosis, mental health issues, PTSD, post-natal PTSD. I've written at least one story (“You Four Are the One”) using a technique in therapy treatment for people with PTSD called RECON (reconsolidation therapy) by Courtney Armstrong. I'm hoping our talk will inspire others to write their own fictional (or nonfiction) stories of fertility and women's health issues. I'm hoping they'll buy SIDLE CREEK and they'll find they're not alone. Jolene McIlwain's work has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and appears in numerous online and print literary journals including West Branch, Florida Review, Cincinnati Review, CRAFT, Smokelong Quarterly, New Orleans Review, LITRO, and more.   Her work was included in 2019's Best Small Fictions Anthology and named finalist for 2018's Best of the Net, Glimmer Train's and River Styx's contests, and semifinalist in Nimrod's Katherine Anne Porter Prize and two American Short Fictions contests. She's received a Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council grant, the Georgia Court Chautauqua faculty scholarship, and Tinker Mountain's merit scholarship.    She's taught literary theory/analysis at Duquesne and Chatham Universities, and she worked as a radiologic technologist before attending college (BS English, minor in sculpture, MA Literature). She was born, raised, and currently lives in a small town in the Appalachian plateau of Western Pennsylvania.    Her debut, SIDLE CREEK, out with Melville House this spring, received a starred review from Publishers Weekly and Shelf Awareness calls it a “riveting debut collection” and “a rare gem, a compelling blend of nature and humanity perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver's Prodigal Summer and Daisy Johnson's Fen." Connect with Jolene and buy Sidle Creek www.jolenemcilwain.com   Twitter @jolene_mcilwain  IG @jolenemcilwain  FB @JoleneMcIlwain   Trigger warning, this book includes short stories on stillbirth, miscarriage, fetal abduction and true crime.   For mind-body fertility freebies sign up at www.embracefertility.co.uk and follow me on Instagram @embracefertility for inspiration.

You could make a family from recent novels depicting sisterhood from Oyinkan Braithwaite's My Sister the Serial Killer, to Daisy Johnson's Sisters and Brit Bennett's The Vanishing Half but literary sisterhood goes back via Jane Austen and the Brontës to Chekhov, King Lear's daughters, Cinderella and Greek myths about the seven sisters who formed the Pleiades, or Antigone and Ismene. And if you're looking at feminist history the idea of the sisterhood has been a cornerstone of political action. Is it right that sisters will have a particular bond and sound if they perform music together? All of this and more in tonight's Free Thinking conversation. The Unthank sisters will be on tour with their latest album Sorrows Away visiting a range of venues from Norwich, Poole, Northampton, Middlesborough, Belfast, Edinburgh, Dublin and a range of places in between starting on March 13th in Lincoln Lucy Holland has written Sistersong set in Anglo-Saxon Britannia. She also presents Breaking the Glass Slipper, a podcast celebrating women in genre. You can hear a reading of Oyinkan's novel My Sister the Serial Killer by Weruche Opia on BBC Sounds https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/series/p08q6q19 Sally Alexander, Professor Emerita at Goldsmiths, is founding editor of the History Workshop Journal and is working on a history of psycho-analysis.

In the second episode in the Point season of Elements, I talk to Emma Hislop about point of view and what it is to write it. We use as starting point for this discussion Daisy Johnson's short story 'The Hunt' which is part of 'The Scattering: a story in three parts' and is published in Johnson's amazing collection Fen. Here's a link to more information about Fen Some of the things we talk about are: Here's a link to Emma Hislop's short story 'The Game' Here's a link to Sarah Hall's short story 'Mrs Fox' Here's a link to Karen Russel's short story 'Orange World' Here's a link to Emma's Instagram Here's a link to Emma on Twitter Exercise: Emma's story 'The Game' does an amazing job of limiting what the point of view character knows. Think of an object. Name three facts about this object. Now get three people in the room with this object and give each of them one of the facts about the object but not the other two. Each of them wants the object. Now write the dialogue.

But really we’re focusing on delivering the best seasons we can one at a time so far.” When asked about the possibility of a WandaVision Season 2, Feige said, “I’ve been at Marvel too long to say a definitive no to anything.” However he added that WandaVision was designed to feed right into Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

"Everything else, we'll have to see." #TCA21 Billy’s Opening Comment: “Not about Wandavision, but....Regarding the Prime MCU (Earth 199,999),....Agents of SHIELD is 100 percent canon, taking place and fitting perfectly within that universe.” Be careful about absolutes when it comes to a fictional universe. Canon can change over time within Disney - i.e. Star Wars And if it isn’t specifically stated by those in charge of Disney creative content, there will always be ambiguity Thank you again - VERY MUCH - Billy for your comment and for listening to and watching Legends Of S.H.I.E.L.D.. We are all very greatly to read your comment   Billy THE KID Lawrence 5 days ago Not about Wandavision, but....Regarding the Prime MCU (Earth 199999),....Agents of SHIELD is 100 percent canon, taking place and fitting perfectly within that universe. SHIELD in particular, goes out of its way to make it clear they fit into that timeline in their finale. They finished strong on Prime MCU (Earth 199999) in the year 2020, between the events of Infinity War and Endgame.   Forgive me. This is going to be slightly long-winded, but I see so many people that like to spread misinformation and say that SHIELD and the other shows somehow aren't canon. I'll use SHIELD as my main example and the controversies surrounding its continuity. Everyone likes to act like it doesn't take place in the same universe for some reason just because of things like…they don't mention the Snap/Blip in Season 6 onward. Listen. Not everyone has to mention the Snap/Blip every second like it's the biggest deal going on, especially a year into it, which is when Season 6 takes place. Also, none of our agents were directly affected by the Snap/Blip like the rest of the world. They were in that half that didn't get snapped, and Coulson's death was not something that made them think of said event. It wasn't the thing that killed him. It was the last thing on their minds an entire year later. They wouldn't feel the need to mention it constantly and simply would be focusing on their duty protecting the world as they did. That's like saying I should lose focus on my reality because 9/11 happened. It doesn't work like that. It makes perfect sense for it to be represented the way it was and the world was just trying to return to normal again alongside them protecting it.   Then, there's the "but everything didn't look bleak and dark like in Endgame argument"...Newsflash, even in Endgame, every single place on Earth didn't feel depressing or dark, and quite clearly, Tony Stark was living a normal "I've moved on" sort of life, as were the Asgardians & more. The Agents, who were much less affected than Stark, are likewise going to move on, and mention the event even less than he probably does, if at all. They also had some of their team on missions up in space for a long while, four of them to be exact. Again, their focus is not on the Blip/Snap aftermath a year later. The state of the Earth recovering is maybe a part of their focus, but only in that they continued to do their jobs, and protect the Earth whilst it recovered.....A YEAR AFTER IT HAPPENED.   Then, the argument becomes "they time traveled and entered a different timeline so now it's not canon" Wrong again. In both instances of time travel, they always came back to their original timeline and this is made explicit every time. They did not create a new one and then simply stay there. Not in Season 5. Not in Season 7. Only one character stayed in the alternative timeline they created and that was Deke. The show ended in the year 2020, after our characters traveled through the Quantum Realm back to their home Earth of which I just mentioned is the mainline MCU. Fitz clearly explains how this works and makes it clear to the audience that this is what they do, aside from the clear shots of them doing so in the Quantum Realm....   The 2020 they are in,…is the time period of the Snap/Blip, in between Infinity War and Endgame, on Earth 199999 (Prime MCU). SHIELD has been fully re-established and the Triskelion has been rebuilt, as seen briefly in the background at the end of SHIELD and in a Spider-Man Homecoming deleted scene. This is canon, not alternative timeline stuff. The other argument becomes “but the Triskelion has to be an alternative timeline because it was destroyed. No. In the ONLY ONE alternative timeline they created in Season 7, the Triskelion was destroyed the same exact day that they went back to their original timeline. There would be zero time to rebuild it after merely a year and it would make zero sense if that were the case. What makes more sense and is actually confirmed canon based on what we've seen on-screen and in dialogue, is that they are in the prime MCU timeline, with the newly rebuilt Triskelion, as was clearly represented with their journey back through the Quantum Realm, and again, the Triskelion was confirmed being rebuilt in the Spider-Man Homecoming deleted scene, and it would make more sense that it took 6 years to rebuild versus the 1 day alternatively.   In this 2020, within the prime MCU on Earth 199999, as has been established numerous times now (hope people get that through their head), a new SHIELD academy was also built, honoring Coulson's memory after he passed in the year of 2018. The characters' stories, as far as that series is concerned, ended, but there is full potential for them to return, and they absolutely should return in their own Disney+ show and/or other Disney+ shows/movies in the MCU. The characters were too consistently well-written and have so much further potential to be explored as well as finally being able to cross over in a more in-depth manner with Feige running the show. I hope they pick back up on the stories in the present day, time-jumping the narrative from 2020 like they did from 2018-2023 in Endgame. Too much time was spent on these characters by fans who love & adore them to no end, and too much of that time was invested with the notion of them being in the prime MCU, of which nothing thus far retcons them out of it. Please, Kevin Feige & Marvel Studios, do these characters justice and don’t ignore prior continuities. Same can be said for the Netflix characters, Runaways, Cloak & Dagger, etc.    Also, the other big argument is that Feige doesn't consider the shows canon and that it's all interlinking for the first time by his own mouth. Wrong. He never once has confirmed anything not canon and has only said otherwise, confirming them all to be in the same continuity, and that the potential opportunity to use them in the MCU again is always there. He only said they'll be interlinking for the first time in regards to the bigger picture and story all-around, not the canon of them being within universe. People are highly ignorant of this and they also like so spread false drama hearsay as if they know everything going on behind the scenes. All we know is what is confirmed by Feige, on-screen visuals, and dialogue...and all of it says Agents of SHIELD and the other shows are canon.   The current state of the AoS characters in the year 2020 (Prime MCU Earth 199999) is as follows:   Coulson (Chronicom LMD): An Advanced Chronicom LMD of Coulson, out seeing the world   Mack: Director of SHIELD, Fury is retired/snapped   May: Teacher at the new SHIELD academy   Flint: Student at the new SHIELD academy   Deke: Running an alternate timeline SHIELD as Director   Daisy: In Space with Daniel Sousa & Kora (SWORD?)   Sousa: In Space with Daisy Johnson & Kora (SWORD?)   Kora: In Space with Daisy Johnson and Daniel Sousa (SWORD?)   Piper: Working missions with Yo-Yo/LMD Davis   LMD Davis: Working missions with Yo-Yo/Piper   Yo-Yo: Working missions with Piper/LMD Davis   Fitz: Retired with kid, married to Simmons   Simmons: Retired with kid, married to Fitz   There are other supporting/minor/prior main characters whose stories are left to the imagination as of current, as the last time we saw them, they could have ended up anywhere, but I’m sure they could be brought back just as easily (gimme some Koenig Patton Oswalt action!), and I hope they are. Anyway, I really needed to make this comment because I’m so tired of seeing everyone falsify this narrative of non-canonicity and act like it’s the truth, that they’re not canon, when they are. It sickens me. So, I apologize if I came off kinda jerk-ish in places on here, but it just frustrates me. It’s a beautiful written show that consistently gets better and better each season, and deserves way better than it’s gotten in the eyes of the public. I sincerely hope Feige, Disney, and Marvel Studios do the right thing to bring these characters back full-force with their established continuities........   E-MAIL   Oh8four Thu, Feb 25, 11:24 AM (3 days ago) to stargatepioneer@gonnageek.com   I keep thinking about how we got the amazing Photon/Spectrum origin in episode 7 but most of the chatter was about the fact that (ostensibly) a big comic book name wasn't involved in it.     Or how a lot of the theorizing has phrases like "it has to be" "it better be" "if it's not (x) I'm gonna"   Ever wonder if the real big bad of Wandavision, the people Agnes might be pulling all of these strings for the benefit of, even though in the end it probably won't even be good enough, is us, the audience?   OUTRO [1:13:29]   Lauren, Michelle and SP love to hear back from you about how you would rate the episode we just discussed, your top 5 Marvel character lists, your science of Marvel questions, who would you pick in an all-female Avenger team, or which Marvel male you would like to see shirtless.

Inseparable, intense, secretive and spookily intertwined: these are the two sibling protagonists at the centre of Daisy Johnson’s unsettling novel "Sisters". The author tells us about how the relationship between July and her older sister September evolved throughout the course of her writing and why she wanted to explore the darker parts of family dynamics. We also talk about lockdown reading, the pervasive presence of internet culture and how, as a precociously talented writer, Daisy found herself on the Man Booker shortlist at just 27 years old.

Please not in the MCU...please no!!! Quick question: do you think (or worry!) that the Tobey McGuire version of the Spider-Man costume we saw in the background with ‘murderer' written on it will be a fake out, and it'll be the Tom Holland version in the actual movie, similar to the Far From Home trailer pre-Endgame concealing the Iron Spider suit?  Here's hoping to NO, and it won't happen...! Thanks as always!5:58 Joshua ShurbetSean, the current immortal hulk series is tackling the Roxxon Corp. Thoughts on this being the company that takes over Stark towers in the MCU? What reasons would this not be a possibility?10:00 Brett HeierDo you think that Wakandans will have a general dislike or fear of wanda since she killed their delegate by accident and also because she is kinda the reason that they went to war and got their armies killed since she would destroy the stone. Of course this isnt exactly how it happened but this could be how the general public sees it.19:39 Mookie JohnsonIs Venom had  performed at the level of Dark Phoenix , do you think we still would have seen Michael Keaton at the end of the Morbius trailer?21:47 Amazin AsianIf Morbius bombs, and Venom 2 does mediocre numbers (or bombs) at the box office, is Sony back at square one? Maybe that will kill the SUMC25:50 Michael Weaselboy How would you have reacted if it was Tom Holland in the morbius stinger instead of Keaton??28:07 Adam NighI'm wondering when we are likely to find out the title of the new Spider-Man movie. About how long before release did we learn the titles of Homecoming and Far From Home?30:24 Jim ScroggsFrom a movie score standpoint, Do you think there will be a new team up theme that will accompany the new roster of characters that we will see going forward with maybe hearing Silvestri's Avengers theme every now and then?40:31 Terry MortensenIt feels like Phase 4 and/or 5 will feature the MCU's multiverse. I have two questions based on this:1 Do you think we will revisit the MCU timeline where Thanos and his armies vanished in 2016? I thought this could evolve into the Cancerverse without Thanos' actions, or this could be where a new Mjolnir or alternate versions of characters come from. 2 Would the MCU ever bring in Marvel Television continuity in the way that DC did with the CW's Crisis? It would be fun to see something like Last Days of Marvel Netflix or Daisy Johnson.48:03 Wardeathjust rewatched the portals part and still love it, but I noticed...how did Dr. Strange know to sling ring to the Avengers compound upstate NY? I thought to create a portal with sling rings, you need to know the location from memory up to a certain degree.in my head cannon, Wong distributed maps or instructions to all the other masters of mystic arts that were alive so that they'd know where to go...but no one was alive in Strange's party51:33 Mookie JohnsonIf not for Natasha having a separate mission on the Lumerian Star, do you think Steve would have given the thumb drive to Natasha at the hospital himself?53:02 Joshua ShurbetI do not believe cap was able to perfectly return all the stones. It seems the ancient one gave the writers a perfect setup for alternate timelines. Do you believe he finished the job to perfection?

With all the speculation on Marvel Studios' upcoming slate, and everyone claiming they have the latest leak/scoop/reveal, what are some tips on spotting fake/ non-credible sources?15:01 Otto RogersWith some of the rumors out there about Keanu Reeves being in the MCU as a villain,  what villain do you think that Keanu would be perfect for?  They mentioned him as a possible villain in the Eternals movie.17:04 Oni OmoregieHello, Sean. So far, there have been no heroes that have turned out to be Skrulls. Do you think it is possible that that one of the Avengers could be a Skrull? Also, what do you think about the theory that the Black Widow who died in End Game was a Skrull and the real one is still alive? Thanks for all you do.20:04 Robert ReinekeHello Sean. Hypothetically, if you had one opportunity to get anything Marvel or DC greenlit, what would it be? A Hulk storyline? Burton/Keaton Batman reunion? Kingdom Come? Howard the Duck? Booster Gold? The skies the limit, but you only get one shot.24:05 James KaplanI think the orchestral scores for the MCU movies have been quite strong, with the Captain America movies and Black Panther being personal favorites. Do you have a favorite score or few scores?25:50 James KaplanSorry if tis is ground you covered, but do you have a preferred approach for how to integrate the F4 into the MCU?  I'd been thinking that maybe they were time-displaced, and had been stuck in the Quantum Realm, where they also maybe picked up their powers.  I know they don't want to overdo the "time displaced people" trope, but one of the reasons I like this idea is that it's hard for me to separate the F4 from their very Atomic Age/New Frontier 1960's origins.  But I can also imagine them not wanting to overdo the "fish out of water" stuff since that has come up for Steve, Thor and Carol to varying degrees.29:18 Alex WardIn light of the Roger Wardell tweet bringing Venom back into the conversation, I have a question about the character. Since Venom 1 was so successful, do you think Sony will focus on making the sequel a more objectively good or even great movie? Maybe a bigger budget or more prolific talent? We haven't heard anything about it in a while and I can't tell if they're waiting for people to forget about it or if they are gearing up for something actually good. I could see them jumping at the chance to adapt elements of Donny Cates' current run.32:09 Alex WardEven if Marvel did have full rights to a Namor film, would you still prefer him as a supporting/co-starring character, or would you prefer he have his own franchise?33:32 Woo S! KimIf you could bring two members of the “Agents of Shield” cast into the Marvel Cinematic Universe film universe who would they be and why mine would be of course Coulson and Daisy Johnson?37:25 Woo S! KimThis was not really addressed in “Avengers: Endgame” but was the reason Captain Rogers was wearing his S.H.I.E.L.D. stealth suit was because it was the only suit that he had that wasn't beat up or torn in battles or was it because The Russo Brothers first Marvel Cinematic Universe was “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” and Captain Rogers wearing that suit was a little nod to that film?39:42 Woo S! KimWhat if Disney never bought Marvel would the Marvel Cinematic Universe be as big and or popular as it is now if Paramount still distributed the Marvel Cinematic Universe films, something tells me that the sharing deal would not have taken place between Marvel Studios and Sony if Marvel was not owned by Disney, what are your thoughts?45:41 Alex WardMonday's Bugle got me thinking about all the possible characters who could show up in Eternals; two seemingly unlikely characters, Hercules and Thanos, are nearly expected at this point, so I'm wondering if the MCU Eternals will take even more liberties from the source material, and I hope they do. Which unexpected Marvel characters would you like to see appear for the first time in Eternals? I'm still hoping for Namor to be an Eternal in the MCU!47:53 Giuseppe VicarettiHey Sean and fellow Patrons, I'm very much enjoying these episodes and everything you're doing, and all the info you've been giving us, I've certainly appreciated it and will always come back for more, my question this week for is how has the MCU affected you in these last 10 years and 22 films leading up to Endgame. I feel like if these movies have never happened, I wouldn't be the same person I am today. I wonder if I'm the only one?1:02:29 Giuseppe VicarettiTo follow my last question, what items have you collected through the years because of Marvel? I've collected all the steelbooks for the movies, as well as some vintage comics. What have you got Sean, and are you still building your collections?1:06:58 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and patrons, hope everyone is doing well. I've just listened to the May ‘Soapbox' which was a very well balanced conversation (as always) on fandom and the entitlement of some fans with certain properties and how their stories unfold.I 100% subscribe to the view that “it's not my story to tell” and as long as I get an enjoyable and entertaining tale (be it comics, movies or whatever) then the satisfaction I gain from endings or narrative directions etc should be part of the process of my own enjoyment, and not something to use as a stick to beat the creators with if I didn't agree with how the story unfolded.Your soapbox got me thinking about the 1988 Batman comics storyline Death in the Family, which some younger (on non-comic book fan) patrons may not know involved the Jason Todd Robin being killed by the Joker after an reader phone-in gave 2 options - he survives, he dies.I was 16 when I read this and because I live in the UK I couldn't vote. I wouldn't have voted anyway, as I don't like this form of interactive entertainment and I disagreed with the whole idea. Maybe the fact we haven't seen it since tells its own story about its success...!So my question for you, Sean, relates to what your take on this type of fan interaction is, and to what degree you like your engagement to be (as an example,  for me, social media interaction with creators is enough for me to feel involved without telling me them how to tell their stories).Sorry for the long post, hope it makes sense and thanks as always for your time with this and other questions! Best wishes to all for the week ahead.1:14:36 Benny JacksonHey Sean.I'm not sure if someone already asked this but I'll ask anyway... do you think the MCU has a villain problem? I'm not sure about the numbers but I'm pretty sure heroes greatly outnumber the villains.I feel like the only movies that did a good job with this was Infinity War, Spider-Man Homecoming and Incredible Hulk (I know this isn't technically the MCU).  All of the villains that actually mattered lived so we can look forward to seeing them again. Infinity War was even more special because the good guys lost and that is something very rare in film.I just think this is an old way of storytelling, where the heroes must always win and eliminate the bad guys. That being said, I love ALL of the marvel movies. I just wish more villains lasted longer than one movie.  Ok, keep up the awesome work and thanks for everything you do.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Although Meet the New Boss as an episode is mostly about connecting Ghost Rider to the disembodied spirits as well as Robbie Reyes to Daisy Johnson, the title of course refers to the new director who has a few surprises up his sleeve as well! And let's not forget the unknown fate of the normally nigh-invulnerable Melinda May! Join us for show news, commentary and analysis for Meet the New Boss, Faith's CoulSass moments, and our listener feedback segment! This week we talk about Fitz's anger at Daisy, Mack's realization of Yoyo's involvement, the Director's secret powers, Daisy's death wish, and why Coulson isn't in charge of SHIELD anymore.
