Kevin Feige is promising major “pinch-me” moments for Avengers: Secret Wars, and all signs increasingly point to Doctor Doom sitting at the center of Marvel's next big reset. Jim Hill and Dan Graney break down the newest Avengers: Doomsday rumors, the Russo Brothers' unusual script process, Wanda speculation, and the possible future of Vision Quest. They also dig into new Marvel casting, Avengers Campus construction, Jack Kirby tributes, Star Wars' post-sequel plans, and the return of classic Indiana Jones comics. HIGHLIGHTS • Kevin Feige calls Doctor Doom the centerpiece of Secret Wars and teases crossover moments Marvel fans have never seen on screen. • The Russo Brothers reveal Avengers: Doomsday began production without a finished script, describing the screenplay as a “living organism.” • New rumors point toward Wanda Maximoff's possible return and suggest Doom may be targeting characters whose lives were changed by time travel and the multiverse. • Noah Jupe joins Secret Wars in a mystery role, sparking theories ranging from Franklin Richards and Doom's son to Molecule Man and the Beyonder. • Vision Quest is now positioned around the same point in the MCU timeline as Spider-Man: Brand New Day and may be laying groundwork for Avengers: The Children's Crusade. • Marvel casting chatter includes Asa Germann as Angel, reported Al Pacino talks, Emma Myers rumors, and Destin Daniel Cretton returning for another Spider-Man movie. • Disney's World Builders offers a closer look at Avengers Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab, including the ride systems and Marvel technology behind the attractions. • Jack Kirby's legacy gets new attention through an Avengers Campus tribute, a New York street dedication, and upcoming books exploring his career. • Star Wars begins moving beyond the sequel trilogy with its New Jedi Order era while the original 1977 film prepares for a 50th-anniversary IMAX release. • Marvel's classic Indiana Jones comics return in deluxe collections alongside a brand-new series set after Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Today's episode is a little bit different than usual. As part of the Kickstarter for our graphic novel series Meow the Infinite, we promised our backers we would make a special “Making of” podcast. We figured it made sense to post it to our Molly Movie Club podcast feed!For those unfamiliar, Meow the Infinite is an all-ages graphic novel adventure series that spans over 700 pages total. Meow is inspired by the movies we grew up watching, and our love for classic adventure films of the 80s and 90s (if you're a long-time listener of Molly Movie club, you'll know we love movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, and E.T. The Extraterrestrial). Meow is our attempt to capture a little bit of that magic. We started working on it back in 2017, and the Kickstarter campaign for the final book ran last year. We're so happy that the story is finally complete and available for everyone to read.If you are just hearing about Meow the Infinite for the first time and want to check it out, we have digital versions available for purchase worldwide, and physical copies of Book One, Book Two, and Book Three available on Amazon in the US.As always, thanks for listening.

Ep 154 — Wolf Kahler — Colonel Dietrich in Raiders of the Lost ArkFor Episode 154 of The Filmumentaries Podcast, I'm going back to one of my earliest and most memorable interviews: a conversation with German actor Wolf Kahler, best known to film fans as Colonel Dietrich in Raiders of the Lost Ark.Kahler's wonderfully imposing performance as the Nazi officer who helps Belloq search for the Ark is one of the many unforgettable supporting performances in Spielberg's 1981 adventure. But there's much more to his career than one film.In this episode, Wolf talks about his acting career, how he came to be cast in Raiders of the Lost Ark, working with Steven Spielberg and the cast, and his memories of making one of the most beloved adventure films ever made.It's also a chance to revisit the making of Raiders from the perspective of someone who was actually there — and to hear stories from behind the scenes that you won't find in the finished film.Wolf Kahler has appeared in numerous films and television productions, often playing German military characters, including The Dirty Dozen: The Next Mission, The Bourne Identity, The Remains of the Day, Charlotte Gray, Wonder Woman and The Great Escaper.So, grab your hat, whip and favourite archaeological artefact, and join me for a conversation with Colonel Dietrich himself.This podcast is completely independent and made possible by listener support.

Episode 205: Pet Shop Boys – Please (1986) – Part 3 Brian and Sarah are back at their microphones to continue their discussion of Please, the debut album by the Pet Shop Boys.  In Part 2, our hosts discussed the first two songs on the album. The next song up for discussion is "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)," which, like the track before it, had two different versions released. However, unlike "West End Girls," neither version of "Opportunities" was produced by Bobby O.  "Opportunities" also had two videos released, and interestingly, each host was more familiar with a different video. Brian and Sarah talk about all three versions of the song (to include the version recorded with Bobby O), both videos, and the single's interesting chart history, which includes a run as recent as 2021. During this discussion, several movies are mentioned too: Midnight Cowboy, Wise Blood, and Raiders of the Lost Ark.  After a thorough examination of "Opportunities," our hosts move on to track four, which is yet another single. "Love Comes Quickly" differs from the preceding songs, however, in that only one version was released. Sarah shares a Smash Hits review of the song written by someone in another PRP-approved band, which Brian is quite happy to hear.  A discussion of "Love Comes Quickly" would be incomplete without mentioning the iconic single sleeve, featuring Chris Lowe in a "BOY" hat.

From Raiders of the Lost Ark to Spider-Man 2, Boogie Nights, Frida and Broadway, Alfred Molina has built one of Hollywood's most extraordinary and versatile careers. In this revealing conversation with Steve Kmetko, Molina looks back at making his movie debut for Steven Spielberg, and admits he was so inexperienced he didn't even understand the marks on the floor. He shares the story behind becoming Doctor Octopus, explains how Doc Ock's famous mechanical arms really worked, and reveals the nickname he and the puppeteers gave themselves. Molina also takes us behind the scenes of Boogie Nights, including the line he improvised that Paul Thomas Anderson kept in the film, and talks about Salma Hayek's extraordinary fight to get Frida made with the cast she wanted. Then the conversation gets personal. Molina discusses the times he considered giving up acting, being told he wasn't leading-man material, therapy, his unusual theory about what drives actors, his feelings about awards and the role he'd still love to play. After five decades on stage and screen, Alfred Molina is very much still here.   00:00 Alfred Molina: Still Here Hollywood01:01 His First Movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark02:17 Alfred Molina Was Completely New to Filmmaking04:52 Why Spielberg Told Him to Stop Watching Dailies07:18 Why Raiders Changed Adventure Movies08:43 Auditioning for Steven Spielberg10:22 Learning From Hollywood's Greatest Directors12:20 The One Director He Couldn't Understand14:33 Regretting Not Paying Attention in School15:08 Classical Acting Training at Guildhall17:08 Did Classical Training Help in Hollywood?19:01 Becoming Doctor Octopus20:00 The Secrets Behind Doc Ock's Tentacles23:10 The Movies Alfred Molina Loves25:34 Why Young Fans Know Him as Doc Ock27:04 Does He Take His Characters Home?29:52 Why He Keeps Returning to the Stage31:31 The Incredible Boogie Nights Firecracker Story34:40 Actors, Directors and Happy Accidents38:32 Film vs. Television vs. Theater40:38 The Roles He Still Wants to Play43:34 Playing Tevye and Diego Rivera44:53 Salma Hayek's Fight to Make Frida47:00 Alfred Molina Gets Candid About Awards50:09 Why He Doesn't Really Watch the Oscars51:24 The Best Acting Advice He Ever Received53:18 He Thought About Quitting Acting, A Lot55:42 Alfred Molina on Therapy56:04 His "Genetic Flaw" Theory About Actors58:00 The Role He Still Dreams About59:59 The Career Moment He'd Love to Relive1:02:06 Inside Hollywood's "CADS" Group1:04:09 Why Their Friendships Matter Show CreditsHost/Producer: Steve KmetkoAll things technical: Justin ZangerleExecutive Producer: Jim LichtensteinMusic by: Brian Sanyshyn https://stillherehollywood.comhttp://patreon.com/stillherehollywoodSuggest Guests at: stillherehollywood@gmail.comAdvertise on Still Here Hollywood: jim@stillherenetwork.comPublicist: Maggie Perlich: maggie@numbertwelvemarketing.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, the dads head into deep space for Project Hail Mary — a Ryan Gosling-led Andy Weir adaptation about astrophage, reluctant heroism, alien engineering, musical communication and the most loveable rock-spider in modern sci-fi.What we coveredThe return to Podcast Mountain after a week off, with Sidey explaining why recent recording plans went slightly sideways.Sidey and Reegs seeing The Streets at Alexandra Palace, immediately considering Iceland, and generally having a far better time than Sidey later had in Malta.Malta being very hot, not especially relaxing, and a strong avoid unless you are on the picturesque ferry to Gozo.Family hotel movie nights, including a MonsterVerse run and the crushing parental disappointment of Raiders of the Lost Ark being switched off for being boring.Ryan Gosling news from Comic-Con, including Ghost Rider, Star Wars, and whether anyone can make Ghost Rider look good on screen.Gosling's range: Only God Forgives, Lars and the Real Girl, The Gray Man, blockbuster charm and oddball credibility.Andy Weir, The Martian, and why the dads respond to optimistic science-problem movies where clever people solve practical disasters.The central crisis: astrophage is eating the Sun's energy, reducing solar output and threatening Earth.The Hail Mary mission as humanity's last desperate throw, sent to Tau Ceti because that system appears mysteriously resistant to the astrophage problem.Ryland Grace waking from stasis with no memory, dead crewmates, a HAL-like computer and a beard that suggests deep-space personal care needs work.The flashbacks revealing Grace as a molecular biologist turned school teacher recruited by Eva Stratt to help understand astrophage.The moral ugliness of Grace not volunteering for the suicide mission, then being sedated and sent anyway after the intended crew are killed.The grim Earthside stakes: collapsing sunlight, food-chain panic, frightened children and governments handing Stratt extraordinary power.First contact with Rocky, the engineer from Erid whose own planet is facing the same astrophage disaster.Rocky's musical language, the translation process, and the dads' comparison with Close Encounters of the Third Kind.The two-ship friendship: different atmospheres, pressure barriers, xenonite tunnels and two scientists learning to trust each other through diagrams and experiments.Rocky's look: rock-like, spider-like, toy-like and somehow instantly endearing.The discovery of taumoeba, the organism that eats astrophage and offers a possible solution for both Earth and Erid.Rocky saving Grace at huge personal risk, then Grace choosing to use his remaining fuel to save Rocky when he realises Rocky's ship is in danger.The film's optimistic message: cooperation across species, cultures and worlds is the only thing that saves anyone.Grace ending up on Erid, teaching alien children about Earth, and the dads enjoying the full-circle return to teaching.The reported $200 million budget, worldwide box office heading toward $700 million, UK-built Hail Mary sets, and Gosling's likely “double bubble” as star and producer.Key moments / quotesSidey says “hopes were high for Project Hail Mary” because of the Gosling/Andy Weir pedigree.Dan explains the title through American football: the last desperate throw into the end zone.The dads note that Grace “didn't fucking volunteer”, which makes Earth's plan morally spicy even if the stakes are existential.Rocky's musical tones immediately bring Close Encounters to mind.The group enjoy the idea of a sci-fi film built around “scientist guy figuring shit out”.Cris appreciates that the film is warmer and more colourful than the bleaker spaceship sci-fi he usually struggles with.Sidey reads the Grace/Rocky relationship as a story about different worlds working together on the same problem.Cris highlights the happy ending, the little rock children and the satisfying “don't go back / actually he should go back” emotional turn.Sidey notes the film has done serious box office business against a huge production budget.The final verdict lands simply: “Strong? Strong. Strong. Yeah. Strong.”VerdictThe dads give Project Hail Mary a unanimous strong recommend. They respond to the Andy Weir problem-solving structure, Ryan Gosling's easy likeability, the film's optimistic tone, and especially Rocky — an alien sidekick/friend/co-scientist who turns the film from simple survival story into something warmer and more memorable.It is big-budget, accessible sci-fi with a hopeful streak: funny, emotional, smart enough to feel satisfying, and powered by the very Bad Dads-friendly idea that cooperation beats panic, even when the Sun is being eaten.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell dive into the adventurous world of "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom", marking the grand finale of Systematic Geekology's Summer Drive-In miniseries. In this episode, they explore everything from the movie's iconic heart-pulling scene to its place among the beloved Indiana Jones saga. Their banter flows as effortlessly as Indy dodges traps, reflecting on how the film's prequel status adds depth to the character development we see in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". With a laid-back vibe, they also touch on the film's cultural commentary and its playful critiques of action tropes from the era. Plus, they can't resist sharing personal anecdotes about their love for the film, making it clear that "Temple of Doom" holds a special place in their hearts as they wrap up this summer's cinematic journey. Diving deep into the adventurous escapades of "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom", Joshua and TJ's discussion is a delightful blend of nostalgia, critique, and humor. Right from the start, Joshua shares his passion for the film, positioning it as a cornerstone of his cinematic experience alongside "Star Wars: A New Hope". They set the scene of a summer Drive-In series, where the atmosphere is ripe for reminiscing about how films like Temple of Doom shaped their childhoods and influenced their understanding of different cultures. The conversation flows seamlessly as they dissect memorable scenes, such as the iconic heart-ripping moment, and reflect on how certain elements of the film have aged both well and poorly over time. The duo does not shy away from addressing the film's more controversial aspects, particularly the portrayal of Willie Scott as a stereotypical damsel in distress. They explore how her character serves as a parody of other action films, which leads to a broader discussion about the role of women in cinema and how these portrayals reflect societal attitudes of the era. On a lighter note, Short Round's character is highlighted as a source of joy and comic relief, with both hosts sharing fond memories of his antics and the zest he brought to the film. Their witty banter keeps the conversation engaging, with TJ's remarks about Indiana Jones being a “better Rambo” eliciting laughter and nods of agreement.
