This week, the boys drink some whiskey and head to 1960 to discuss the less famous slasher movie of the year, “Peeping Tom”! Directed by Michael Powell, this film was a major inspiration for Martin Scorsese and a terror to the people of England, leading to its removal from theaters after only 5 days. Unlike “Psycho”, it was subsequently banned from many other countries… yet today, this movie feels like a tone poem of modern culture. We give you a 1960 year-in-review and discuss. linktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page! Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

Last year brought many challenges for Christian fantasy fans. From flops at the theaters now threatened by streaming slop, to creators making more events for Christian storytelling, to the continued growth of biblical fiction as the top genre of Christian-made entertainment—let's survey the top ten fantasy-related headlines from last year. Episode sponsors Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queen The Case of the Heart Stone by Tulli Cole Above the Circle of Earth by E. Stephen Burnett Mission update New at Lorehaven: many features over the holidays! We announced our new book quest in the Lorehaven Guild: Taliesin Onscreen: ‘Stranger Things' Season Five Gives Weight to Parents' Fears, A. D. Sheehan Onscreen: ‘David' Creators Answer all Your Questions About the Animated Hit Movie, Josh Shepherd Engage: Alleged ‘Rock and Roll' Soundtrack Incites Suspicion of Netflix's Narnia Movie, newcomer Sierra Simopoulos Sierra Simopoulos also reviewed Sons of Day and Night My own article: Why Christians Need Fantastical Stories Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild Stop by the homepage for many upgrades, especially the Library. Soon: discover the Guild's new wing, the Lorehaven Authorship. 10. Superheroes failed to save ailing cinema Marvel movies, despite their strengths, all flopped at the box office. Personally I did like Fantastic Four: First Steps, but didn't love it. Lorehaven folks were generally positive about some hero movies. ‘Captain America: Brave New World' Labors to Save a Struggling MCU, Marian A. Jacobs The Antiheroes of Thunderbolts* Preach to Marvel Itself, Daniel Whyte IV ‘Superman' (2025) Will Make You Believe a Man Can Be Earnest, Josiah DeGraaf However, audiences were tepid; none of these films broke even. The greatest foe of superheroes? Flippancy. Next: lack of family. MCU reached its apex with creators who at least feigned sincerity. DC's nobledark tone was winning fans, until the studio freaked out. 9. Disney's ‘Snow White' remake bombed Sticking with cinemas, this one might be the year's greatest fail. ‘Snow White' (2025) Isn't the Fairest of Adaptations, Parker J. Cole I didn't see it. Few people did. More people saw YouTube roasts. This whole nonsense was an ugly reflection of three terrible trends ruining films: “woke” checkboxes, cynicism, and corporate gloss. 8. Fans abandoned legacy sci-fi franchises Once a Doctor Who hero, Russell T. Davies has ruined that series. Star Trek is adrift, desperately trying to hail imaginary “new fans.” Of course, Star Wars keeps failing to please its own alienated fans. The greatest culprit here: Godless, sex-obsessed progressivism. One can't correct from this without visibly rejecting “woke” politics. 7. K-Pop Demon Hunters owned the summer We haven't had a genuine pop-culture movie phenomenon in ages. Then along comes this little giant animated movie on Netflix. ‘K-Pop Demon Hunters' Pits Singing Heroines vs. Monster Idols, Marian A. Jacobs Kids sang catchy songs. Adults found deeper themes to explore. YouTube reactions and covers on Instagram/TikTok exploded. For the first time, Netflix had a true four-quadrant hit on its hands. And dear Lord, may they learn only the right lessons from this, and not turn this into another streaming slop like so much other stuff. 6. ‘Woke' stories stepped back, yet persisted 251. Could a Cultural ‘Vibe Shift' Advance Christian-Made Fiction? Due to political events we won't detail, that agenda is on the wane. At least the Sexualityism religion is seen as stale and unstable. Many are still trying to figure out what, if any, ideas will replace it. A. D. Sheehan had to critique Brandon Sanderson, a late arrival to the “woke” content scene: Brandon Sanderson's New Fantasy ‘Wind and Truth' Summons a Postmodern Cringestorm. Oddly enough, we keep seeing Christian parents posting about the random books they find, after which they ask “Is it woke?” Pro tip: yeah, it's probably woke, especially with a cover like that. By now we surely have enough Christian-made novels to help? 5. Corporate slop threatens human stories 274. Why Shouldn't AI-Generated Content Replace Human Stories? This is partly about AI-generated slop, but not always. Skeptical fans now refer to anything bad with “this looks AI.” Why? Because the problem goes deeper than technology amok. Long before AI, corporate studios began relying on algorithms. I believe that's when these stories began feeling less, well, human. 272. Can We Save Cinema from Sloppy Stories? Instead of human hunches, stories get greenlit by metallic minds. Reference: the short-lived run of Robert Zemekis mocap movies. At first people express curiosity, but eventually they get bored. Prediction: this too shall pass. We'll see a lot of forced “firsts,” like “the first fully AI-generated movie.” They may even succeed. But the novelty will quickly wear off as it did before Mars Needs Moms. Still, Christian creators must dig deeper to defend organic human stories with philosophies deeper than “AI destroys the Earth.” 4. Conservative TV is trying more fantasy We greatly anticipate the DailyWire+ show The Pendragon Cycle. Based on Stephen Lawhead's novels, seven episodes drop Jan. 22. Christian showrunner Jeremy Boreing actually stepped down from being Daily Wire co-CEO, it seems, to ensure finishing this series. Political hot takes scarcely outlast the day. Great stories last long. Alas, there's the constantly controversial Magician's Nephew movie Marketing for this is dreadful, with publicly floated nonsense about an actress playing Aslan or the movie featuring “rock and roll.” 257. By Aslan's Mane, is Netflix Really Casting a Lady as the Lion? Meanwhile, platforms like Angel (run by LDS members, yet with freedom for Christians) released The Wingfeather Saga season 2. We also saw a new angel-heroes show, Gabriel and the Guardians. ‘Gabriel and the Guardians' Echoes a Golden Era of Saturday Morning Cartoons, Jenneth Leed Alas, any sci-fi-ish efforts seem restricted to dystopian dramas. We need higher budgets and risks to widen those genre limits. 3. Realm Makers unites Christian creators 265. How Can We Shine the Gospel at the Realm Makers Expo? 266. How Do You Assemble a New Expo for Christian Fandoms? | with Scott Minor Last year's conference in Grand Rapids marked an experiment. Can this organization blend creator training with a public expo? Results were mixed-positive, mainly because of the venue choice. For me, a debut sci-fi novelist, results may have skewed better. Yet our primary audience must be Christian fans and families. A semi-major downtown is difficult for these folks to access. Next year's new venue in St. Louis looks much more promising! And it sounds like the public Expo will be easier for fans to access. For Christian fantasy to grow, we must unite over common interest. Yet this unity must be based on love for the true Jesus, our Author. 2. Biblical fiction is the top Christian genre There's no contest. Amish and historical fiction is dethroned. Christian fantasy (mostly romantasy) remains confined to books. Amazon's ‘House of David' Anoints an Intriguing Biblical Epic, Michael Allen ‘House of David' Is Crowned King of Amazon Prime, Jenneth Leed 1. Fantasy for teen/YA women continues to rule the Christian-made fantastical worlds This might well be the repeat headline from previous years. Facts are facts. Teen girls and women outread everyone else. When they like fantasy, they prefer female heroes/relationships. Romantasy is the queen. And her handmaiden is royal drama. 249. What is ‘Romantasy'? | with Parker J. Cole And the new princess on the block? Time-travel romance, for sure. 263. What is Time-Travel Romance? | Every Hour Until Then with Gabrielle Meyer These books get the most attention on Instagram and elsewhere. Is it true that “men don't read”? Not necessarily. Men do read. But they tend to read nonfiction about culture, theology, history. And for fantastical fiction, these readers have unique expectations. Christians here favor proven legacies, especially Lewis/Tolkien. One can't complain about the reality. Instead, meet the standard. Frankly, that's my hope for Above the Circle of Earth and beyond. Of course I support teen/YA female-focused fantasy stories! Yet that's not my genre; it doesn't help me, personally, grow in joy. Surely there are more readers who favor other kinds of stories, maybe deeper, maybe in underdog genres like sci-fi and horror. Christians must expect a true joyous sci-fi future under King Jesus. And we uniquely understand supernatural realities/horror today. But making new stories isn't enough. We must cultivate readers. That's our mission at Lorehaven with our new mission statement: Escape bad books. Find the best Christian fantasy and sci-fi! Watch this space for more about bad books, reader cultivation, and new resolutions to avoid scroll traps and level up your imagination. Com station Top question for listeners What was your top fantasy story or least-liked story in 2025? Next on Fantastical Truth “In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the world disappear.” Jesus returned thirty years ago. Or rather, He sort of pre-returned, the warm-up act, if you will. Many faithful Christians believe in this kind of “rapture.” And in December 1995, two authors teamed up and used this idea to create the most successful biblical end-times thriller we've yet seen. Last summer, we overviewed the series. Yet now we'll ask how that first Left Behind novel has aged, thirty years after its release.

Happy New Year from all of us here at BWN! This week, we bring you another wild visit to the Trailer Park as we take a look at trailers for the Chevy Chase documentary, a reboot (of sorts) for The Muppet Show, and, wait....PC Tunney recommended a horror film? Apparently so, as we take a look at the trailer for Primate. Of course, the MCU headlines the Trailer Park this week as the Nerds discuss the latest Thor-based Avengers: Doomsday trailer, as well as the official trailer for Wonder Man. How do these two seemingly unrelated trailers fit into the broader scope of the MCU, and what, exactly, does Dr. Doom want with all these kids? In News Around the Nerdosphere, we look at the mammoth success of Zootopia 2, and ponder whether the equally huge success of Stranger Things might cause Netflix to rethink its stance of making movies for the cinema. The Main Event of the show, however, has the Nerds discussing the best of 2025 in the Nerdosphere. Who did we think were our best actors/actresses of the year? What were the best movies and shows? And what were the biggest stories in Nerdom this past year?

And he was like, BLEGHGH! IT'S ME! Or rather, it's us! We're back. This week, Emily and V take a look at the ways that Thor: Ragnarok divided the MCU fandom as a controversial entry into the Thor trilogy and, therefore, the MCU Infinity Saga as a whole. Emily was a long-time Thor fangirl when it came out; it was V's second or third MCU movie, ever. How did these different perspectives inform the ways that they enjoyed -- or didn't enjoy -- the movie? Also, a bit of The Business up-front: we're back, and we're going to quickly burn off the remainder of the 2025 episodes before getting back on track with being "this week" in fandom history later this month. Thank you all so much for your patience in 2025 as we both had a totally horrible year that affected our schedule so much. We love you! LIVE SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT!

This Wise_N_Nerdy segment kicks off exactly how real life feels at a con: audio levels fighting for their lives, intros going sideways, and Charles and Joe still rolling with it like it's part of the show (because… it is). The dice hits early and lands on a surprisingly practical “How do I interact with my favorite celebrity?”—and it turns into a mini masterclass on not being weird in the best way possible. Joe nails the core: celebrities are people, they're having a day like everyone else, and the character is not the human (with a perfectly timed “Joffrey” example that made the whole thing land). Charles brings the con-floor wisdom—bathroom etiquette, consent, and the power of a deep-cut compliment that makes a guest stop and actually talk.Then the panel slides into “Daddy, tell me a story” and delivers the most convention-core tale possible: Joe's 2006 car decides Atlanta is the perfect place to throw a Christmas-tree dashboard, kill power steering, and spark a chaotic tour of AutoZone → Advance Auto → “we don't do alternator checks anymore (even though the sign says we do)” → mechanic limbo. And yet, the vibe doesn't crash—because the takeaway isn't “everything went wrong,” it's “this is what we make it.” They close by nerding out about guiding kids through the MCU like a controlled emotional demolition (Infinity War is next—those kids have no idea what's coming), then they end with exactly what the dice was born for: bad dad jokes, audience participation, and just enough groans to prove the room is fully alive.Celebrity interactions: Treat them like humans, assume they've repeated the same convo all day, and lead with kindness—not entitlement. Bonus: a deep-cut compliment can spark a real moment.Convention etiquette: Don't ambush celebs in bathrooms, ask for consent even in paid photo ops, and remember: “their character” ≠ “them.”When travel chaos hits: Don't let one crisis hijack the whole weekend—shift to “it is what you make it,” focus on what you can control, and salvage the experience.Parenting + fandom hack: Watch big franchise moments with your kids and watch their faces more than the screen—those reactions become the memory.“You can wallow in what's going wrong… or recognize it's not the end of the world. I made it here. It's going to be a great weekend regardless.” — Charles McFall

On today's new episode and the last of 2025, the guys discuss the 1998 classic Small Soldiers directed by Joe Dante and starring Tommy Lee Jones and Kirsten DunstBut first, are Clive Owen and Gerard Butler basically the same guy? Do we love the cast of this movie? Is this our first edition of The Boys Talk Toys? Did we all see this in theaters? Does this movie have Gremlins vibes and easter eggs? How was the CGI for a 1998 film? If Toy Story had Apocalypse Now vibes would it be Small Soldiers? For a kids movie does this have intelligent critiques of the military industrial complex? Were they trying to make Jay Mohr a thing in the 90s? Was this move Phil Hartman's last role? Did Andy Dick OD recently? Is Cody the Alan Abernathy of the pod? Does this movie get a 6 on the Foley?

Power of X-Men: The Greatest Comic Book Podcast in All of the Multiverse!
Hang on to your seats, familia! A super-size 2 hour episode breaking down our top 10 of Marvel Legends in 2025...unfiltered!!!!
As the year comes to a close, I wanted to do something a little different. In this New Year's Special, I'm counting down my personal Top 10 MCU solo movies — the films that defined the franchise for me, shaped these characters, and still hit every time I revisit them. This isn't about rankings for the sake of ranking.It's about impact, origin stories, and the movies that helped build the MCU into what it is today. From Iron Man to Doctor Strange, from grounded beginnings to cosmic adventures, this episode is a reflection on why these stories mattered — and why they still do. Whether you agree with my list or not, I hope this feels like a celebration of the MCU, the journey so far, and everything still ahead.

Jim Hill and Dan Graney ring in the holidays with a Marvel conversation that somehow involves hacked PayPal accounts, cardboard Star Wars memories, and one of the strangest trailer rollouts in studio history. As Marvel's Doomsday marketing quietly unravels through shaky theater footage and strategically ignored leaks, the guys dig into what's really going on behind the scenes - and why this controlled chaos may actually be the plan. Along the way, they unpack the emotional and narrative risks of bringing Steve Rogers back into the MCU, especially now that he's apparently a dad.
