We'll explore the unique investment deal that allowed Marvel Studios to launch the MCU, Jon Favreau's original pitch to make Captain America a COMEDY MOVIE(!), the list of actors who were nearly cast in the title role, Joss Whedon's involvement in the movie, the ties to the imminent Avengers film, the special effects used for Cap's body transformation, and tons more!

Happy Halloween! We don't dedicate too many episodes of Watch With Jen to television shows, mostly because of the time & effort involved in rewatching several seasons over a long period of time. But if a TV series touches us enough, if it's beloved, created & executed with a true original vision, raises & sets the bar, has been unfairly overlooked, or if it's something that has impacted an entire generation of fans, then we want to be sure to celebrate its greatness. After all, in every generation, a slayer is born, & in our second of two Halloween episodes, past guests Elizabeth Cantwell, Jessica Ellis, & Roxana Hadadi join me to discuss all seven seasons of the landmark Gen X/Millennial favorite "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Honoring its legacy, evolution, the creative minds & talents involved, we take you on a journey of the highs & lows of Joss Whedon's Scooby Gang in Sunnydale, California & all seven seasons of episodes of this WB & UPN series. Comprised mostly of a long conversation between myself, Elizabeth, (+ a cameo by her son Cooper) & Jessica, the final segment of this installment includes a great bonus chat/afterward with Vulture TV Critic Roxana Hadadi as well. (Note: We will return in Season 7 with another conversation focused on the spin-off series "Angel.")Originally Posted on Patreon (10/28/25) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/142276745Shop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless ShopDonate to the Pod via Ko-fiTheme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive

Don't you love sequels? Especially when they make as much sense as Alien Resurrection, a movie that said, "oh no, Ripley burned herself to death and we have to bring her back... I dunno, clones?" The guys discuss the 4th Alien film in the franchise and talk about the one-liner filled Joss Whedon script, Ripley being super horny for aliens, the deeply disturbing ending, Ron Perlman shooting a spider and much more. Next week: small-screens on the big screen + the next movie is revealed.

This week's episode covers a topic the Junkies rarely talk about: Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Kidding! But in this in-depth look at the iconic television drama, Shauna and Olivia take a deep dive into the background, lore, and future of the show that brought them together as friends long ago, during the plague years. The Junkies take you through the basics, like who plays what character, how the show developed from the movie of the same name written by Joss Whedon, and how the show broke new ground in representation - not just of vampires but also of women, LGBTQ people, and in its themes of identity, family, friendship, free will and sacrifice. Shauna and Olivia discuss how the Buffy-Verse has remained active and the new sequel series coming to Hulu next year - along with their hopes that it will be a fitting followup to the show they love so much. You can watch the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast on YouTube!

The media doesn't want beautiful things to live so you've got to scalvage what you can.

The paralells between Firefly and Barenaked Ladies are obvious to everyone, but Harry Nelson puts them all down for the record anyway.

Everyone is terrible but maybe that doesn't matter in the black. We start in on the show we thought we'd never do. The most eternal single season television to ever barely exist, Fox's 2002 Joss Whedon vanity project, Firefly. 让我们开始吧!

Have you noticed that recently Westerns are making a bit of a comeback? I'm not speaking directly about the most recent Oscar buzz of "Brokeback Mountain", but rather the successes of shows like Colonial Radio Theatre's "Powder River" which is getting rave reviews and thunderous applause from all quarters. XM Satellite radio can't seem to get enough Powder River, and Jerry Robbins is now working on season three of the hit series. On televsion, even science fiction takes a turn moseying along with the "wagon trains of the stars". Gene Roddenberry claimed to sell Star Trek in the 60's with that phrase, and Joss Whedon's pre-empted triumph "Firefly" along with its followup movie "Serenity" leans heavily on that age of old west. While I'm well aware that genres weave in and out of popularity, I'm more interested in why cycles occur rather than suggesting that they somehow have a regular pattern- if they did, wouldn't it have been time for a big 30's pulp movie like Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow? How long has it been since we've had a new renaissance in that genre? I think there's something about the world we live in today, and the values that the Old West represented- simplicity, even a clearer sense of what's right and what's wrong. In today's complex society, there's a real yearning for a tangible way to make a better life. Later we'll finish our interview with Schlock Audio's Bruce Humphries, and end this meeting with a little... Wasted Tape. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! FIREFLY es una serie que mezcla perfectamente el western con la ciencia-ficción más aventurera, con unos personajes pintorescos y bien definidos y una cantidad de situaciones de lo más imprevisibles. Su creador, Joss Whedon, ha sido también el responsable de productos tan reconocidos por gran parte del mundillo friki como Buffy, Cazavampiros, Ángel o, más recientemente, el fastuoso film Los Vengadores. Firefly nos contaba la historia de un grupo de mercenarios y/o contrabandistas y/o piratas y/o chusma-problemática-en-busca-de-problemas, a bordo de una chatarra espacial capaz de resistir lo que le echen, en un universo que reflejaba el salvaje oeste a lo largo de un sinfín de sistemas estelares pertenecientes a los bajos fondos de la galaxia. Firefly contó con una película titulada SERENITY, que redondeaba ciertas tramas abiertas que no pudieron desarrollarse en la serie debido a su cancelación injusta y prematura. Aunque Serenity sí llegó a España, la serie aún sigue siendo inédita en este país, por lo que estamos hablando de un producto de culto por méritos propios, que además en la piel toro cuenta con ese toque de frescura incorruptible que tienen los títulos que no muchos conocen y que ya no pueden comercializarse ni venderse al dólar, porque ya están extintos. Hoy, con Raúl Martín, sacaremos punta a un producto que cuenta con un ejército de seguidores confederados en todo el mundo. Además, en la segunda parte del programa, el Coronel Kurtz nos traerá un Expediente Star Wars de lo más ameno, que tendrá como protagonistas a los SABLES DE LUZ de los caballeros Jedi y los malvados Sith. Cómo se fabrican, sus curiosidades más notables, historias de leyenda vinculadas a estas poderosas armas, las gemas que habitan en su interior, cómo surgieron y quién los inventó, amén de un sinfín de preguntas de todo tipo que serán respondidas en un dossier que os sorprenderá gratamente. Ningún fan de Star Wars podrá perderse el que es el último de los documentos sonoros dedicados a este universo en la presente temporada. Por supuesto, editando, presentando y dirigiendo, tendremos como siempre a Antonio Runa. Un programa espacial de LA ÓRBITA DE ENDOR de casi 3 horas que os atrapará y os llenará de asombro.

fWotD Episode 3033: Satsu (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 24 August 2025, is Satsu (Buffy the Vampire Slayer).Satsu is a fictional character in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics published by Dark Horse Comics. She first appears in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight #1 (2007), a canonical continuation of the television series of the same name. The television series follows Buffy Summers, a Slayer destined to fight supernatural foes, and ends with her sharing this power with others. After being activated as a Slayer, Satsu is trained by Buffy, becoming her strongest fighter, and falls in love with her. They have sex together twice before Satsu becomes the leader of a squad of Slayers in Tokyo. In her later storylines, Satsu: struggles to move on from Buffy, fights demonically-possessed stuffed animals, and briefly reappears in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Ten.Satsu was developed by Buffy's creator Joss Whedon and artist Georges Jeanty; Jeanty was the primary artist for Satsu and took inspiration for her appearance from Japanese street fashion. Whedon considered Satsu's sexual relationship with Buffy a natural progression of their storylines and a way to further explore both characters. In response to criticism, editor Scott Allie and writer Drew Goddard denied that it was a publicity stunt or a political statement. Acknowledging past criticism of his treatment of LGBT characters, Whedon confirmed that Satsu would continue to appear after the end of her relationship with Buffy.Satsu's relationship with Buffy received mixed reactions from fans, some of which Dark Horse Comics published in the letter columns of several issues. Reviewers discussed Season Eight's treatment of its lesbian characters, with some praising Satsu's storyline. Critics, fans, and industry insiders had a more mixed response to Satsu's sexual relationship with Buffy; some reviewers found it a positive representation of sexuality, while others deemed it gratuitous. Several scholarly articles focused on this aspect of the character. Academics have analyzed the unequal power dynamic between Satsu and Buffy and have compared the representations of their sexuality. To a lesser extent, scholars have also discussed the depiction of Satsu's race and ethnicity.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:24 UTC on Sunday, 24 August 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Satsu (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Olivia.

Following the commercial disappointment of the oppressively downbeat Alien 3, it stands to reason that 1997's follow-up, Alien Resurrection, would attempt to recapture the fun, bug-hunt thrills of James Cameron's Aliens. And while French auteur director Jean-Pierre Jeunet certainly lightened the mood—credited in part to the quippy, Joss Whedon-penned script—audiences were puzzled by this strange newborn, even with series heroine Sigourney Weaver returning and a solid supporting cast featuring Winona Ryder and Ron Perlman. Join Sebastian, Chris and Steve as they clone themselves 8 times, laser some whiskey cubes and lovingly cradle this bizarre hybrid of sci fi and French comedy/satire.

This week, we're talking about the 1997 flop Alien: Resurrection! We discuss Ripley's sick gel manicure, praise Michael Wincott, and discuss how Joss Whedon would note the podcast if only he had a chance.     Produced by Andrew Ivimey as part of The From Superheroes Network   Visit www.FromSuperheroes.com for more podcasts, articles, video series, web comics, and more.

This week's nostalgic dive comes courtesy of Patreon supporter Lucky Looloo Green—who's not only a proud VHS Strikes Back backer, but also a top-tier supporter of our CD Reality TV Cast! Her pick? The gloriously goofy, genre-clashing Buffy the Vampire Slayer from 1992. Before the brooding drama and Scooby Gang of the TV series, there was Kristy Swanson in neon spandex, staking vamps between cheer routines and shopping trips. It's a wildly uneven ride, and Lucky Looloo knew exactly what kind of glorious chaos she was serving up.Written by Joss Whedon as a darker, more subversive take on the horror genre, the production of Buffy quickly veered away from his vision. Director Fran Rubel Kuzui leaned into campy comedy and teen movie tropes, creating a tonally uneven but undeniably memorable cult film. Whedon eventually walked off set due to creative differences, which later inspired him to relaunch the concept as a TV series that stuck much closer to his original script. Still, the movie had its charms: a young Kristy Swanson in the title role, Donald Sutherland and Rutger Hauer vamping it up, and an early appearance by Luke Perry that helped draw teen audiences. It's a quirky artifact of its time, and Lucky Looloo Green clearly knew exactly what kind of nostalgic madness she was unleashing.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryShe was just your average valley girl—cheer captain by day, mall rat by night.

This genre-defining series from 1998 follows a ragtag crew of bounty hunters aboard their ship, the Bebop, traveling through a post-apocalyptic solar system where humanity has spread to the stars.What sets Cowboy Bebop apart from its contemporaries? Nearly everything. From its meticulously crafted animation with no recycled scenes to its revolutionary jazz soundtrack by Yoko Kanno and The Seatbelts, this show broke every convention of what anime could be. We dive deep into the noir aesthetics, the complex character dynamics between Spike, Jet, Faye, Edward and Ein, and the show's unique approach to storytelling that relies heavily on vibes and atmosphere rather than exposition.The first 13 episodes introduce us to a world that feels lived-in and believable, where technology seems plausible yet fantastical. We explore standout moments like the breathtaking church scene in "Ballad of Fallen Angels" and the horror-inspired bottle episode "Toys in the Attic." Beyond just analyzing the show itself, we discuss Cowboy Bebop's massive influence on western media, particularly its striking similarities to Joss Whedon's Firefly, demonstrating how this anime transcended cultural boundaries to impact science fiction storytelling worldwide.Whether you're rewatching this classic or experiencing it for the first time alongside our hosts, you'll discover new details and perspectives on what makes Cowboy Bebop one of the most enduring and beloved anime series of all time.

Case and Sam are joined by DJ Nik to revivify some Xenomorphs!   Overview   In the latest episode of the Another Pass podcast, hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea, along with guest DJ Nik, delve into the complexities of "Alien Resurrection," the fourth installment of the renowned Alien franchise. They discuss the film's controversial elements, including its scientific plausibility, character dynamics, and Joss Whedon's unique screenplay style. The conversation highlights the film's shift towards a more campy tone and examines the visual aesthetics brought by director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, particularly the impressive underwater sequences. The hosts critique the character motivations and propose improvements, with Sam suggesting clearer intentions for the scientists and more depth for the space pirates, while Nick proposes focusing primarily on the scientists and Ripley in a more claustrophobic setting. Case adds ideas for restructuring the narrative arc to enhance suspense. The episode concludes with a tease for their next discussion covering "Highlander 2: The Quickening."   Notes Introduction to Alien Resurrection Discussion (00:00 - 10:27) Case Aiken and Sam Alicea host Another Pass podcast with guest DJ Nik They're discussing Alien Resurrection, the fourth film in the Alien franchise Nik introduces himself as a host of multiple podcasts including Whiskey and Cigarettes Case positions this film as less respected than Alien 3, which he previously defended Nick describes his love for the franchise, noting the Xenomorph as 'the greatest creature ever created' He appreciates how each film in the franchise has different directors with different visual styles Sam admits she only watched the Alien films because of the podcast, as she's 'afraid of everything' Plot Elements and Science Issues (10:27 - 20:35) The group discusses the questionable science of cloning Ripley to harvest the alien inside her The movie is set 200 years after Alien 3, with Ripley having died in the previous film Sam suggests the genetic material might have been recovered like in Jurassic Park Case notes the first three films maintained scientific plausibility while this one stretches credibility The movie explores Ripley as a superhuman hybrid, shifting the franchise toward sci-fi adventure Nick points out that Sigourney Weaver was brought back as the flagship character Case questions the scientists' motives for bringing the aliens to Earth Characters and Crew Dynamic (20:35 - 30:37) The movie features a crew of space pirates rather than soldiers or workers as in previous films Sam notes the villain motivations aren't properly established, raising questions about their plans The group questions why the aliens are kept together in cells where they can conspire to escape Nick suggests this is due to 'human hubris' and scientists wanting to study their interactions The movie has a distinct 'Joss Whedon' style, as he wrote the screenplay Case appreciates the lived-in world aesthetic consistent with previous Alien films Sam praises the film's beautiful visuals and camera work despite her criticisms Alien Sequences and Visual Elements (30:38 - 39:45) The underwater sequence with aliens swimming is praised as visually impressive Sam notes the unrealistic breath-holding duration in the underwater scene The group appreciates creative kills and set pieces in the film They discuss how director Jean-Pierre Jeunet brought a different visual style The film is described as more campy than previous entries, closer to a slasher film in space The cast is discussed, with Michael Wincott as the captain and Ron Perlman as an abrasive character Winona Ryder is described as distractingly famous for her role as the android Call The Xenomorphs and Newborn Design (39:45 - 49:46) The aliens show intelligence when escaping their cells by sacrificing one of their own The group discusses the alien queen's live birth ability instead of egg-laying Case questions how this is an 'evolutionary upgrade' when it seems painful and inefficient The newborn hybrid alien design is praised as appropriately freaky and different The theme of motherhood continues from previous films in the franchise Nick points out how the newborn looks more human than regular xenomorphs Sam simply finds the newborn 'gross' and disturbing Improving the Film - Sam's Pitch (49:46 - 01:01:06) Sam suggests clarifying the scientists' motives early in the film She proposes establishing that the main goal is creating super-soldiers like Ripley Sam recommends making the pirates more likeable so viewers care when they die She suggests giving hints about Winona Ryder's character being an android earlier Sam recommends establishing a military base on Earth as the destination for the specimens For the underwater scene, she suggests allowing characters to surface for air occasionally She would keep the film's ending but focus on fixing the first act and character development Nick's Alternative Approach (01:01:06 - 01:10:07) Nick proposes eliminating the space pirates entirely He suggests focusing on scientists, Ripley, and Call (Winona Ryder's character) He recommends a more claustrophobic setting with military presence to explore ethics Nick suggests adding communication between the space station and Earth He proposes showing how Ripley's DNA was extracted to address audience questions Nick mentions that Joss Whedon's original script featured Newt instead of Ripley He wonders how the film might have been different if directed by Danny Boyle, who was approached first Case's Restructuring Proposal (01:10:08 - 01:18:51) Case suggests making the space pirates the focus of the first act, with Winona Ryder as the viewpoint character He proposes revealing Ripley later as a surprise, during the basketball scene He recommends establishing that scientists have been successfully cloning aliens already Case suggests the aliens should have been in captivity longer to justify their escape methods He likes keeping the back half of the movie mostly intact The hosts share that Sigourney Weaver actually made the backward basketball shot in one take They conclude by mentioning their next episode will cover Highlander 2: The Quickening
