Howard the Duck has been waddling around the Marvel Universe for more than 50 years, but 40 years ago he made his big-screen debut in one of the strangest movies ever to come out of Hollywood. We're getting our feathers ruffled and taking a look back at the movie that proved sometimes you just have to wing it! Was Howard the Duck really as bad as everyone said? We're looking at the history, the weirdness, the practical effects, the critics, and the legacy of this infamous 80s cult classic.    News BingeBuster Becomes BingeBrowse - After receiving a cease and desist from Blockbuster, BingeBuster has rebranded as BingeBrowse. Kevin Smith Writes Star Wars/Marvel Crossover - Kevin Smith is writing Star Wars/Marvel: Hope Assembles, a five-issue crossover coming in January 2027.

We're celebrating the 40th anniversary of the movie that brought Marvel's cigar-chomping, wisecracking waterfowl to the big screen. We look back at Howard's comic-book origins, George Lucas' involvement, the enormous production, the practical effects, and the movie's spectacular journey from box-office bomb to cult classic.   Then it's time for "What the Duck?", where we try to figure out which critics wrote some of the movie's most memorable reviews. We'll also debate whether Howard was really as bad as his reputation suggests, look at how the character could work today, and explore his eventual return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.   Can you tell a real 1980s movie from something we completely made up? We're putting our knowledge of bizarre 80s cinema to the test with plots involving killer mall robots, time-traveling cyborgs, zombies, tiny demons, alternate dimensions, and murderous machines. Some of these movies are completely ridiculous. The problem is... they're real! Can you Enjoy Howard the Duck? What are some of the fun qualities of the movie? Let us know!

Send us Fan MailD23 2026 is in the books, and this week on The Mickeyphile Podcast, we're looking at the good, the bad, and the occasionally very awkward from Disney's biggest fan weekend.We watched D23 from Walt Disney World and came away with plenty to talk about. Disney brought portions of the event to Disney+ this year, but with dozens of panels happening throughout the weekend, why did fans at home get to see so few of them? We talk about the streaming experience, what Disney got right, and why an event billed as the ultimate Disney fan event still felt surprisingly difficult to follow from home.Then we get into the panels themselves.The 35th Anniversary of Beauty and the Beast was easily one of the highlights. Alan Menken, Susan Egan, Paige O'Hara and members of the film's creative team looked back at the making of an animated classic, the Broadway production, Howard Ashman's incredible influence, and some fascinating behind-the-scenes footage from the original recording sessions. This is Disney celebrating its history at its best.We also watched the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 panel. We're fans of the series—or at least we were before we forgot to watch Season 2—so did the new season presentation convince us that it's time to catch up? We talk about what worked, some strange panel questions, a few production miscues, and why Percy Jackson might be exactly the kind of newer franchise D23 needs to embrace.And then there's the big one: Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase.Neil Patrick Harris hosted an evening filled with Parks announcements, musical performances, celebrity appearances…and a few moments that didn't exactly appear to go according to plan.We break down the Walt Disney World news, including:Figment and Dreamfinder returning to Journey Into ImaginationDisney finally promising to fix the Yeti at Expedition EverestNew details for Villains LandMore information about the Cars expansion at Magic KingdomMonstropolis coming to Disney's Hollywood StudiosTropical Americas and the new Indiana Jones attractionUpdates coming to Spaceship EarthCarousel of Progress and its new voicesNew Disney Cruise Line shipsThe return of The Imagineering StoryAnd a whole lot of projects we've heard about before…without nearly enough datesThere was plenty to be excited about. But after years of hearing about some of these projects, did Disney actually give fans enough new information?Plus, Sheryl Crow, Beck, Gloria Gaynor, Disney on Broadway, Neil Patrick Harris channeling the Carousel of Progress, some questionable wardrobe choices, and a presentation that occasionally left us wondering whether anyone had rehearsed.So after three days of D23, are we actually more excited about the future of Disney than we were before it started?Join Scott and Karen for Episode 262 of The Mickeyphile Podcast as we talk about what D23 2026 got right, what it got wrong, and what we're still waiting for Disney to tell us.Follow The Mickeyphile PodcastInstagram & TikTok: @mickeyphile_podcastFacebook: Search The Mickeyphile Podcast for our Page and GroupYouTube: @mickeyphilepodcastEmail: mickeyphilepodcast@gmail.comTheme song: “Cân Ddelwedd”Written and performed by Scott Daves© 2026 Scott DavesAnd remember…Stay in the dang boats!

Watch That Jawn Podcast — The Odyssey ReviewIn this episode, Mary and James review Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and break down how the film reimagines one of the most famous stories in Western literature. They discuss the Trojan War, the Trojan Horse, Xenia, the cursed House of Atreus, and Nolan's choice to ground the myth in realism by minimizing the presence of gods. They also dive into the performances, especially Matt Damon as Odysseus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, and Tom Holland as Telemachus, while debating casting choices, modern language, and the film's practical effects and IMAX spectacle. Along the way, they connect the movie to Greek mythology, classical art, and other adaptations like Troy, Percy Jackson, Epic: The Musical, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Other major moments include:Why the Trojan Horse works as both strategy and cultural commentaryWhether Odysseus is still a hero after the destruction of TroyThe emotional weight of Calypso's island and Odysseus's memory lossThe terrifying encounters with Polyphemus, the Laestrygonians, Circe, the Sirens, Scylla, and CharybdisPenelope's strength, wit, and refusal to surrender her throneThe final return to Ithaca, the suitors, and Odysseus's bloody reckoningThe hosts close by ranking the film highly and praising its scale, artistry, and ambition, while noting that its sound mix is best experienced carefully depending on how much dialogue you want to catch.Why it works:it combines epic-scale spectacle with a deeply emotional homecoming story, which keeps the audience hooked through both wonder and catharsis.Key takeawaysNolan's version makes mythology feel grounded and human.Penelope is portrayed as powerful, strategic, and fully aware of her reign.The film's practical effects and IMAX production elevate the world-building.The Odyssey remains timeless because it's really about consequence, memory, and home.Episode verdictA bold, immersive, and conversation-starting adaptation that the hosts both admire and dissect.Social Media:https://www.instagram.com/watchthatjawn/https://www.tiktok.com/@watchthatjawnpodc

From there we hop to Disney+'s Percy Jackson, which just dropped a season 3 teaser and a release date (November 20!) that has book readers buzzing about how accurate this season might actually be. Then we talking about Mike Flanagan's Carrie reboot — yes, with cell phones, yes, we have thoughts — landing on Prime October 7, plus Matthew Lillard's casting as the principal, which, honestly, correct choice. And because no Comic-Con recap is complete without a little discourse, we get into Kevin Feige comparing the Doctor Doom buildup to Thanos and why fans are very much not here for it. Rounding things out, we've got Spaceballs news (Rick Moranis showed UP, people), a surprisingly moving story about how fan campaigning got Coyote vs. Acme un-shelved and into actual theaters, and just an overall reminder that this fandom stuff still means something to people. We close things out with recs: Laura's hydrating her face with the Elf Holy Hydration moisturizer, Eric's deep in Star Trek mode with the Improvised Star Trek podcast (start on episode 85, "The Search for Sock"), and Pam wants you to buy local produce when you can to avoid the current explosive diarrhea outbreak sweeping the nation.

If you know the name Bear McCreary, it's probably from the goosebumps he's given you without you even knowing it was him. You may know his work from Battlestar Galactica, The Walking Dead, God of War, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. He's one of the most prolific composers working today, and on July 31st, he's releasing Singularity: Ekleipsis, his second metal album. He sat down with us to talk about creating something that is his own art. We dug into how neither of us comes from a metal background and what that means for the music he is creating. He drops some great recommendations of things to listen to in order to find your way into the genre. The album itself is brilliant from top to bottom. Bear McCreary discusses how this was, in his opinion, more finely tuned than the first, but both albums have been on constant repeat for me lately. About Bear McCreary and Singularity: Ekleipsis Award-winning composer and recording artist Bear McCreary began his career as a protégé of legendary film composer Elmer Bernstein, before bursting onto the scene scoring the revered series Battlestar Galactica in 2004. Since then, McCreary has won three Emmy Awards, including two for Disney's Percy Jackson and the Olympians and one for his theme for Da Vinci's Demons, a musical palindrome, and has won twelve International Film Music Critics Association Awards, including the award for Score of the Year in 2024, his second. Named the 23rd Most Definitive Bear in Popular Culture (The Ringer), he's also been the subject of a clue on Jeopardy! Project highlights include The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Amazon); Foundation (Apple TV); the beloved series Outlander (STARZ); Godzilla: King of the Monsters (Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures); The Walking Dead (AMC); and Netflix's Academy Award–nominated documentary Crip Camp (produced by Barack and Michelle Obama). McCreary's celebrated scores for Sony PlayStation's blockbusters God of War and God of War Ragnarök have earned him two BAFTA Awards and two Grammy nominations. In 2024, McCreary released The Singularity, a hard-rock concept album featuring legendary rock talent including Slash, Serj Tankian (System of a Down), Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Rufus Wainwright, and more.  McCreary has collaborated with artists from across the musical spectrum, including Hozier, Fiona Apple, Shirley Manson (Garbage), Annie Lennox, and the late Sinéad O'Connor. In 2014, Maestro Gustavo Dudamel conducted a suite of McCreary's music with the L.A. Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl.

I didn't even know there was going to be a new series until just this week and I have been on the waiting list for Caroline for several months now.

Supernatural with Ashley Flowers

For millennia, the legend of Medusa has haunted the human imagination, a creature so terrifying that a single glance could turn the living to stone. While most dismiss her as pure mythology, some researchers point to serpentine monsters appearing independently across ancient cultures and ask: were they all describing the same thing? But look closer at Medusa's story, and something shifts. Because some say she wasn't born a monster; she was made into one.  For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/mystical-medusa Did you know you can listen to So Supernatural ad-free?

Drop us a note about the podcast. We read a string of Scripture that ties together rest, marriage honor, family blessing, and self-control, then turn Psalm 101 into a practical guide for what we allow into our homes and friendships. We also share quotes from Salmon P. Chase, reflect on culture and education, and end by pointing back to prayer and the gospel as the best help we can offer our nation. • Psalm 127 on God building the house and giving rest • Hebrews 13:4 on honoring marriage and rejecting sexual immorality • Acts 7 on Moses, deliverance, and the danger of idolatry • Psalm 128 on joyful work, family blessing, and fearing the Lord • Proverbs 16 on patience, self-control, and God ruling outcomes • Psalm 101 as a blueprint for integrity and wise companions • Salmon P. Chase on substantial religion, humility, and practical wisdom • Thoughts on Bible courses in schools and Christian heritage claims • Closing prayer and blessing for families and the nation If you are looking for a middle grade fantasy series, kind of like Narnia, The Hobbit, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, if you would check out the countryside series If you enjoy it, if you would leave a review online somewhere, I would be grateful for that Same with the podcast, American Soul and America's Christian Heritage And if you have five or ten dollars to spare a month, that supports the podcast and the writings.

Drop us a note about the podcast. We open with Psalm 127 and confront the lie that nonstop work can secure a home, a family, or a nation without God. We move from prayer and marriage Scripture to American history, military sacrifice, and a blunt challenge about what happens when a culture abandons Christian foundations. • Psalm 127 on anxious labor, rest, and God's protection • A brief report on a UK sexual assault case and sentencing concerns • Prayer for listeners, families, marriages, and the hurting • Proverbs 31 as a standard for character and marriage • Acts 7 with Stephen's retelling from Abraham to Moses • Children as a gift from the Lord, not a burden • Proverbs 16 on gossip, strife, and quiet evil • A DUI death case used to argue about immigration and public safety • Medal of Honor story of Jose Calugas and the reality of combat • Critique of coed deployable units in war and public safety roles • The origin of “In God We Trust” through Salmon P. Chase and Congress Also, if you get a chance, join us over on America's Christian Heritage Podcast. If you would leave a review of that as well, I would appreciate it. If you have five or ten dollars a month you can spare, there's a link in the show notes where you can set that up and that helps both podcasts. If you're looking for a middle grade fantasy series, kind of along the lines of Narnia, The Hobbit, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, if you would check out the first two books in the countryside series, I would be very grateful for that.

Surprise! It's a bonus episode of BEHIND THE LENS! So many terrific interviews of late with some very energetic and enthusiastic filmmakers, and all rather lengthy, that I can't fit them all in on our weekly Monday show. And because of the fun and enthusiasm of these filmmakers, I want you to hear and enjoy that enthusiasm rather than read a written feature. So you're getting some bonus episodes, and this is one of them as I chat with director and editor JOSH DRAGOTTA and Tiki mug collector and film subject DOUG "FINI" FINICAL about the documentary CABALI AND THE TIKI MUG OBSESSION. CABALI made its Los Angeles premiere at Dances With Films last month. What a fun, fun film and what passionate and engaging guys. I, for one, have always admired the artistry of tiki mugs, but until this film, never knew the history of the Tiki culture. CABALI AND THE TIKI MUG OBSESSION fills that void as it examines the history, artistry, and resurgence of Tiki culture through the collectors, artists, and enthusiasts who helped preserve it during a period when much of the culture was disappearing. And did you know that the Tiki culture, as it's called, started right outside of LA in Venice, California? Directed by JOSH DRAGOTTA who is a veteran editor specializing in commercial production, trailers and documentaries, along with editing on projects tied to La La Land, Bullet Train, Severance, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians, CABALI marks his feature directorial debut. Focusing on the evolution of Tiki mug collecting from a niche hobby into a worldwide community rooted in design, craftsmanship, nostalgia, and preservation, the film also follows Doug "Fini" Finical, a longtime Tiki collector whose extensive collection of over 1000 Tiki mugs inspired the creation of Cabali, a modern speakeasy-style Tiki bar in Oro Valley, Arizona. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Teachers in Transition, Vanessa explores how the books we loved when we were young helped shape what we notice, value, question, and carry into adulthood AND how our own stories  can help us write a better resume.From Erma Bombeck and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple to Nancy Drew, The Boxcar Children, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, The Hunger Games, Divergent, and more, this episode looks at the “childhood bookshelf” as more than nostalgia. Those early stories may have taught us how to solve problems, recognize patterns, seek belonging, survive broken systems, resist being reduced to one role, and remember who we were before burnout took over.Vanessa also talks about reading with children and teens, the difference between censorship and conversation, and why the books young people choose can give us clues about what they are trying to understand.In the Career Transition and Job Search segment, Vanessa moves into resume basics for teachers leaving the classroom. She explains why a modern resume is not your whole life story, why skills should be shown through evidence-rich bullet points instead of a disconnected skills section, and how teachers can begin turning real classroom stories into quantifiable resume accomplishments.You'll also hear about the “Everything Resume” — a master resume template that holds your stories, accomplishments, projects, leadership roles, certifications, data stories, communication wins, and more — so you have raw material ready when it is time to tailor a resume for a specific job posting.Episode highlights:Why childhood books may still hold clues about who we areHow Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z reading experiences shaped different kinds of courageWhy “stories matter” does not mean censorship is the answerHow rereading old favorites can help reconnect us with ourselvesWhy teachers need targeted resumes, not one perfect resume for every jobHow to turn teaching stories into resume bullet pointsWhy quantifiable resume metrics matterWhat an Everything Resume is and why teachers should build oneHow SCOUT helps Vanessa's clients explore career direction and translate teaching experienceMentioned in this episode:Erma Bombeck — Aunt Erma's Cope Book and other humor collections Carolyn Keene — Nancy Drew series Franklin W.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!How do we protect our kids spiritually and set wise boundaries without raising them in a culture of fear? In this episode, Jaime and Alana dive into the nuanced—and sometimes controversial—topic of navigating Halloween, fantasy media, and cultural traditions as Christians. They discuss the critical difference between setting healthy spiritual boundaries and letting “religious default settings” or fear-based superstition dictate our choices, exploring why treating pop culture with extreme suspicion can sometimes do more harm than good. Alana highlights the historical weaponization of the word “witch” by old-school religious establishments to silence women and control spiritual independence, sparking a deeper conversation about how we label things as “evil” without thoughtful examination. Meanwhile, she opens up about her own attempt to watch Harry Potter as an adult and the surprising “nocebo” effect—how deeply ingrained beliefs that something is spiritually dangerous can trigger real spiritual and emotional unease—showing how our upbringing can shape our reactions even when we intellectually know better. Jaime shares her evolving perspective on allowing her children to engage with the series, moving from a more permissive stance to a greater awareness of potential spiritual “open doors,” while still rejecting blanket outrage in favor of Holy Spirit-led discernment. Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on navigating the gray areas of modern Christian parenting and culture. From the beautiful analogy of treating young children like delicate seedlings that need extra protection while older ones must develop resilience through measured exposure, to an eye-opening experience at an Alaska Native Heritage Center, to their kids’ own self-censoring decisions with Percy Jackson and Coco, they offer a discerning yet grace-filled perspective. They emphasize the importance of teaching our children how to think biblically for themselves rather than simply handing down rigid rules, and they guard against the easy temptation to judge other believers who reach different conclusions. Whether you are wrestling with what media to allow in your home, trying to break free from the fear-based religious environment you grew up in, or simply need a reminder to seek God’s specific wisdom for your family instead of defaulting to either permissiveness or paranoia, we hope this episode encourages you to lead with prayerful discernment, intentionality, and confident grace.

Hey HBs! We're back with part 2 of AUTOBOYOGRAPHY by Christina Lauren! When we left you yesterday, Tanner and Sebastian were dating in secret and Tanner just realized that the most important piece of Sebastian's identity is his status as a faithful Mormon. Understandably, he's not sure where that leaves him or their relationship. That's where we're jumping in! Lady Loves: Mel: reading Percy Jackson to my kids every night before bed has been THE BEST. Sabrina: Live Music! It's their happiest place. Especially local live shows with unknown acts. Sabrina: ALSO, loop ear plugs! Leaving a heavy metal show and not feeling like they're underwater is revolutionary. Mel: WELL, IF WE'RE DOING EXTRAS. Current guilty pleasure is the latest season of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Granted, this was recorded before I was done with the season and before Taylor Frankie Paul's continued abuse allegations broke and the subsequent Bachelorette scandal/cancellation.
