Because Apparently We've All Had Enough Capes and Spandex This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl are talking Fantastic Four: First Steps, Happy Gilmore 2, Movies we want to catch at the theater for the rest of 2025, and the latest Superhero Showdown at the Box Office. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Box Office Showdown: 10:49 Movie in the Back Half of 2025: 20:45 Happy Gilmore 2: 33:27 Fantastic Four: 45:22 Superman vs. Marvel’s First Family at the Box Office Superman grabbed a bigger domestic haul, but First Steps showed stronger international momentum and may signal better legs in overseas markets. Superman Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl1543340801/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Fantastic Four: First Steps Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2429649665/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Remaining 2025 Must-Sees at the Theater Darryl: Tron: Ares Avatar: Fire and Ash Nobody 2 The Running Man MK 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Caught Stealing The Long Walk Brian: Caught Stealing The Naked Gun Tron:Ares Mortal Kombat 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Twinless The Running Man The Toxic Avenger TMNT 35th Anniversary Release Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) Summary Nearly three decades after winning the Tour Championship, Happy (Adam Sandler) is now a grieving widower and alcoholic. To pay for his daughter Vienna's ballet school in Paris, he returns to pro golf—and chaos ensues. The film leans hard into callbacks, celebrity cameos, and legacy sequel nostalgia.  Director: Kyle Newacheck Writers: Tim Herlihy & Adam Sandler  Cast: Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore Julie Bowen as Virginia Venit Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin Ben Stiller as Hal L. (in sobriety group leadership) Bad Bunny as Happy's new caddy Benny Safdie as golf mogul Frank Manatee Additional Cast: Sunny Sandler (Vienna), Sadie Sandler, Travis Kelce, Margaret Qualley, John Daly, Rory McIlroy, Eminem (cameos), and more sport & music legends   Production Notes: Produced by Happy Madison and STX Films, filmed in North Jersey over fall 2024; directed by Newacheck with music by Rupert Gregson-Williams. The production is built around cameo-heavy nostalgia and real-world athletes.  Budget: Estimated at $30 million, modest compared to legacy sequel standards.  Distribution: Released globally via Netflix on July 25, 2025.  Reception: Critics remain divided—mixed reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (65%) and Popcornmeter (~70%). Praise comes for Sandler's commitment and cameo spectacle; criticism centers on overreliance on callbacks, tonally uneven storytelling (including a shocking death), and lazy legacy sequel tropes. Some outlets called it a “cinematic disaster,” while others saw it as funny and heartfelt escapism.  Rating out of 10 Cameo Filled Nostalgic Rounds of Maxi Golf Darryl: 2/10 Brian: 7.5/10 Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Summary Set in a retro‑futuristic 1960s alternate universe (Earth‑828), Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm are already established heroes expecting their first child. When cosmic threats like Galactus and Silver Surfer emerge, the team must band together to save the world—and their family dynamic. Director: Matt Shakman Writers: Josh Friedman, Eric Pearson, Jeff Kaplan, Ian Springer; story contributions by Kat Wood  Cast: Pedro Pascal (Mister Fantastic) Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman) Joseph Quinn (Human Torch) Ebon Moss‑Bachrach (The Thing) Julia Garner (Silver Surfer) Ralph Ineson (Galactus) Paul Walter Hauser (Mole Man/Harvey Elder) John Malkovich as Red Ghost (cameo)  Production Notes: Filmed at Pinewood Studios in the UK with shoots in Derbyshire Dales and Oviedo; styled with practical miniatures, retro‑futuristic set design reminiscent of Jack Kirby comics; score by Michael Giacchino recorded at Abbey Road Studios; executive production overseen by Kevin Feige; post‑credits nod to late producer Jamie Christopher and director's mother Inez Shakman in homage scenes  Budget: Estimated over $200 million  Box Office (Opening Weekend): Domestic 3‑day: $117.6–118M across 4,125 theaters (including ~$57M previews) International: $100M from 52 territories Global debut: ~$218M   Reception & Context: Critical consensus: ~88% on Rotten Tomatoes; CinemaScore “A‑” reflects strong audience response. Reviews praise cast chemistry, emotional grounding, and visual style—though tone is more serious than comic-minded critics expected. Some reviewers note a pacing lull and lack of overt humor from a director known for lighter work. Industry analysts call this the first confirmed MCU blockbuster of 2025—ushering in Phase 6 with confidence and momentum after previous underperformers.

On this episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas dive deep into Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel's latest take on its original superhero team. They unpack what makes this version click—from the emotional dynamics between the characters to the classic comic book roots baked into the plot. They also debate Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards, celebrate Vanessa Kirby's commanding performance as Sue, and break down what that end credits Doom reveal means for the future of the MCU. This one's packed with takes, comic knowledge, and that signature CA banter. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Intro and first reactions 00:34 Emotional tone and visual impact 01:17 The family dynamic and what Marvel nailed 02:06 Comparing Fantastic Four and Superman's reboots 03:13 Marvel's tonal shift and 60s sci-fi inspirations 04:07 Spoiler alert and space travel discussions 05:24 Comic nods: Galactus, Mole Man, Red Ghost 07:00 The return of recurring villains in the MCU 10:06 Deep character breakdown: Sue, Reed, Johnny, Ben 13:40 Ben and Reed's friendship complexity 18:09 Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards—does it work? 24:02 Franklin Richards and the film's emotional core 27:10 Comic comparisons and MCU differences 30:32 CGI highs and lows 35:00 Galactus' design and introduction 37:00 Final battle and team synergy 41:04 Stretching powers and future potential 46:49 Mid and post-credit scene breakdowns 51:00 Multiverse theories and TVA links 55:02 Final thoughts and sequel hopes Key Takeaways: Vanessa Kirby shines as Sue Storm, grounding the film with emotion and authority. This Fantastic Four reboot captures the sci-fi spirit of the comics while carving out a fresh MCU tone. Johnny Storm is finally more than comic relief—he's passionate, intelligent, and layered. Pedro Pascal delivers a solid performance, but debate remains whether he feels like Reed. Galactus and Silver Surfer bring scope and threat, with visual set pieces built for IMAX. The mid-credits Doom reveal got the loudest cheer in the theater—for good reason. Memorable Quotes: “This is the first time in a long time I walked out of a Marvel movie wanting a sequel—not the next MCU thing. Just more of this.” “Sue Storm runs this team. Period.” “I don't think Pedro was Reed. I think Pedro played someone like Reed.” “They didn't just adapt a comic—they brought 60s sci-fi to life.” “Galactus wasn't just big. He was felt—especially in IMAX.” Call to Action: If you enjoyed this episode, hit follow, leave a review, and share it with your Marvel-loving crew.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesMarvel Studios may be sitting out of this weekend's storied San Diego Comic Hall H, but that hasn't stopped the big news and updates from pouring in. First, last week in a huge move, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige invited a small group of journalists to Marvel Studios' offices where he laid out the future for the next 5 to 7 years for the MCU. The biggest takeaway, arguably, was Feige's cagey hints regarding a likely reset to the universe during the events of Secret Wars, saying, “Reboot is a scary word; Reboot can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. Reset, singular timeline — we're thinking along those lines.” Other tidbits from Feige's comments include a commitment to recasting the X-Men with new actors for their post Secret Wars film, an update on the Mahershala Ali-led Blade film and Sony's mandate that they stay away from a live action Miles Morales until the conclusion of the animated Spider-Verse trilogy. In Marvel news that looks to the more immediate future, director Matt Shakman shared that John Malkovich's role and performance as the Red Ghost has been removed from The Fantastic Four: The First Steps, which opens this week!Superman continues to live up to its name when it comes to its performance, as the superhero flick passed $409 million at the global box office in its second weekend of release. The $58 million second weekend, which is a respectable -54% drop from the opening weekend, is in keeping with 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine and bodes favorably compared to other recent releases from the comic book genre; plus coupled with other wins like A Minecraft Movie and Sinners, the latest success has helped Warner Bros become 2025's top earning studio with $1.32 billion in ticket sales. In other news, Variety confirmed Supergirl writer Ana Nogueira has been tapped to pen the Wonder Woman reboot for the DCU in addition to being attached to a live action Teen Titans project for the studio.Lots and lots of trailers hit the interwebs last week, lets run them down and talk about ‘em:Alien: EarthPredator: BadlandsTron: AresStranger Things S5Mortal Kombat IIChristopher Nolan made history by putting tickets on sale for The Odyssey exactly one year before the film's release, marking the first time any movie tickets have sold a full year in advance.

In this episode of The Box of Oddities, we unravel two wildly bizarre tales that will leave you questioning reality itself. First, Jethro dives into the terrifying legend of the Red Ghost of Arizona—a monstrous, bloodthirsty creature that terrorized the Old West, leaving a trail of destruction and something even more horrifying in its wake. Then, Kat sets sail with the SS Sapona, a ship with a strange past that feels like a fever dream. This Prohibition-era vessel went from a floating rum depot to a military target, and today, it's a sunken relic with an eerie presence—and Kat actually dived on it. Strange creatures, haunted shipwrecks, and inexplicable oddities? Just another day at The Box of Oddities!

The wait is over! Thomas and Frank react to the first teaser for Fantastic Four: First Steps and break down all the major details. From the retro-futuristic New York City setting to the new interpretations of the characters, this trailer has given us plenty to discuss. We dive into the Fantastic Four's dynamic, the potential role of Doctor Doom, Galactus' looming threat, and how this film may connect to the larger MCU. We also talk about the visual aesthetics, character performances, and what this means for future Marvel films. Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Introduction: Early morning reactions to the Fantastic Four trailer 00:38 – Watching the trailer live: Initial reactions and hype 01:13 – The Fantastic Four's family dynamic and why it stands out 01:50 – The retro-futuristic aesthetic of New York City in the film 02:35 – The Baxter Building, its significance, and NYC's superhero landscape 03:07 – The city's destruction: Will Galactus wipe this world out? 03:41 – Ben Grimm's role and how The Thing is portrayed in this version 04:53 – Fantastic Four vs. Hulk: How The Thing compares in power 05:55 – Powers in the MCU: Johnny's new fire effects and Sue's invisibility changes 06:41 – Fantastic Four suit designs: A subtle 60s influence? 07:37 – How this world could connect to the MCU and possible multiverse implications 08:29 – Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards: A new take on the character 09:48 – Reed Richards' personality: The reserved genius vs. Tony Stark's arrogance 11:48 – The intimate moments in the trailer that make it stand out 12:16 – The music: Why it's a perfect fit for this nostalgic take on Marvel 12:57 – Ben Grimm's emotional moment: Evan Marsback's performance is going to hit hard 14:18 – Red Ghost and Mole Man: How deep will this movie go into classic villains? 15:46 – Could Doctor Doom be introduced in this film? Speculating his MCU debut 17:10 – Matthew Vaughn's direction: Expecting strong character moments and aesthetics 18:28 – Fantastic Four comic reading recommendations from Thomas 19:44 – What's next for Marvel: Upcoming projects in 2025 Key Takeaways Fantastic Four is embracing a retro-futuristic New York, setting it apart from the standard MCU aesthetic. This version of the Fantastic Four is already established heroes, skipping the traditional origin story format. The Baxter Building's introduction adds another iconic superhero HQ to the MCU. The trailer hints at major destruction, likely tying into Galactus and multiverse events. Ben Grimm's emotional journey seems to be at the heart of this film. Doctor Doom's role is still unknown, but his presence feels inevitable. The Fantastic Four's powers look visually distinct compared to past iterations. Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards seems to lean into a more introverted, anxious genius, differentiating him from Tony Stark. Reading recommendation: The current Fantastic Four run by Ryan North is a great place for new readers to jump in. Memorable Quotes

Think vampires are just spooky fun from movies and books? Wait until you hear about the real-life people who took their bloodthirsty obsession way too far.Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: If you're a fan of U.S. History, you might already know that camels once roamed the American Southwest – brought to Texas by the military because they'd be perfect for the desert climate. But once it was all over a legend remained… a terrifying one. (The Red Ghost of Arizona) *** Just because an official government report is released about a UFO sighting or incident doesn't mean that Ufologists and researches are going to accept those findings – or the story the government tells. Thus is the case with a UFO incident in 1952 outside of Tokyo at the Haneda Air Force Base. (The Heneda Incident) *** When it comes to horror and fantasy, you'd be hard-pressed to find something more dangerous or terrifying than the vampire. Skulking around at night, feeding off the blood of the living, shapeshifting into a wolf or bat, hypnotic powers… it's creepy stuff. Good thing it's just fiction. But when you discover criminals in our actual world who think they are vampires – that horror and danger becomes all too real.

IN THIS EPISODE: When it comes to horror and fantasy, you'd be hard-pressed to find something more dangerous or terrifying than the vampire. Skulking around at night, feeding off the blood of the living, shapeshifting into a wolf or bat, hypnotic powers… it's creepy stuff. Good thing it's just fiction. But when you discover criminals in our actual world whothink they are vampires – that horror and danger becomes all too real. (Real Life Vampiric Villains) *** If you're a fan of U.S. History, you might already know that camels once roamed the American Southwest – brought to Texas by the military because they'd be perfect for the desert climate. But once it was all over a legend remained… a terrifying one. (The Red Ghost of Arizona) *** Just because an official government report is released about a UFO sighting or incident doesn't mean that Ufologists and researches are going to accept those findings – or the story the government tells. Thus is the case with a UFO incident in 1952 outside of Tokyo at the Haneda Air Force Base.

Originally released February 14, 2022. Prior to the Civil War, the United States Army experimented with using Camels to transport cargo through the American West. The Camel Corps program would have been considered largely successful if it weren't for the war. In this episode, we tell the story about how the camels were acquired, tested and the unlikely person who spearheaded the endeavor. Then we chat and play the quiz game with Las Vegas magician Mat Franco!  Review this podcast at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-internet-says-it-s-true/id1530853589 Bonus episodes and content available at http://Patreon.com/MichaelKent  For special discounts and links to our sponsors, visit http://theinternetsaysitstrue.com/deals

Click here for the book The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Only $6   Other Legends The Headless Horseman The Headless Horseman is a mythical figure who has appeared in folklore around the world since the Middle Ages.  The figure is traditionally depicted as a rider upon horseback who is missing his head. Description Depending on the legend, the Horseman is either carrying his head, or is missing his head altogether, and is searching for it. Examples include the dullahan from Ireland, who is a demonic fairy usually depicted riding a horse and carrying his head under his arm; the titular knight from the English tale Sir Gawain and the Green Knight; and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," a short story written in 1820 by American Washington Irving, which has been adapted into several other works of literature and film including the 1949 Disney animated film The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad and the 1999 Tim Burton film Sleepy Hollow. In Irish folklore The dullahan or dulachán ("dark man") is a headless, demonic fairy, usually riding a horse and carrying his head under his arm. He wields a whip made from a human corpse's spine. When the dullahan stops riding, a death occurs. The Callahan calls out a name, at which point the named person immediately dies. In another version, he is the headless driver of a black carriage, the Cóiste Bodhar. A similar figure, the gan ceann ("without a head"), can be frightened away by wearing a gold object or putting one in his path. In Scottish folklore The most prominent Scots tale of the headless horseman concerns a man named Ewen decapitated in a clan battle at Glen Cainnir on the Isle of Mull. The battle denied him any chance to be a chieftain, and both he and his horse are headless in accounts of his haunting of the area. Among the Highland Scottish diaspora in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, seeing the image or hearing the sound of a horse or headless rider is traditionally regarded as an omen of an imminent death within the family. In German folklore In Germany, headless-horseman stories come mostly from the Rhineland. Rather than using decapitation, the headless horsemen killed their victims simply by touching them. They were revenants who had to wander the earth until they had atoned for their sins, sometimes by doing a good deed for a stranger, but instead of showing their gratitude by shaking hands, the stranger and the horseman held a tree branch between them and the branch would wither and die rather than the stranger.[8] Irving travelled in Germany in 1821 and had become familiar with Dutch and German folklore. In particular the last of the "Legenden von Rübezahl" ('Legends of Rübezahl') from Johann Karl August Musäus's literary retellings of German folktales (Volksmärchen der Deutschen, 1783) is said to have inspired The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Red Ghost of Arizona The legend began in 1883 when two men left their ranch house near Eagle Creek to check on their cattle. While they were out, one of the ranchers' wives heard their dogs loudly barking, followed by a loud scream. She rushed to the window and saw what she described as a "huge, reddish colored beast" ridden by a "devilish-looking creature", and proceeded to lock her front door and wait for the men to come back. When the two men returned, they found the other wife had been trampled to death. The men followed the footprints left by the creature the next day and found red hair in a bush. A few days later a group of prospectors reported something tearing through their campground; red hair was later found at the site. The creature was again spotted just a few days later, this time being described as 30 feet tall, and knocking over two wagons, with red hair again being found. The legend would quickly spread with various tales being told; one described the creature killing and eating a grizzly bear, while another said it disappeared into thin air when chased, but all the tales agreed that the skeleton of a man was on its back. A cowboy tried to lasso the beast, but was knocked to the ground and nearly killed by it, not before seeing the figure on the back was a skeleton. A few months later a group of five men shot at the beast, missing the camel but shooting the head of the skeleton off, finding some hair and skin still attached to it.   The legend remained popular until 1893 when farmer Mizoo Hastings found the creature eating in his yard and proceeded to shoot it, killing it in a single shot. It was then discovered that the beast was a camel, with leather straps on the side stuck so tight that it was scarred. It remains unknown why a dead man was attached to the back, but various tales have appeared to explain it over the years, some saying it was a prospector dying of thirst who tied himself to the back hoping it would bring him to some water, while others say it was a soldier learning to ride a camel when it suddenly bolted off. The verifiability of some parts of the legend remains questionable, as some records are missing or have been lost over time. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++   During the Westward expansion of the United States, military forces were looking for ways to ease transportation in arid regions. Throughout the early 19th century various proposals were made for camels to be used as pack animals, with a proposal by then Secretary of War Jefferson Davis finally being approved in 1855 with a budget of $30,000 in an experiment that would later become known as the Camel Corps. The process of acquiring camels began around the Mediterranean and eventually, 70 were procured. The project was originally a success, but due to the American Civil War, it was largely abandoned, with many supporters like Jefferson Davis joining the Confederacy. The camels were sold off or abandoned, with some being seen for decades afterward.

Camels are strange animals. They have large humps, spit, and live in a constant state of heat. Now, what do you think about when you think of where camels may live? First thought maybe Egypt or some sort of desert country. While you are correct, we look at two strange cases for this episode where wild camels maybe wandering around Arizona. Once upon a time ago, the United States Military had what was called The Camel Corps, which was a camel caravan for US Troops. The project was left behind when the Civil War started, and some say to this day the remnants of that project exist being called Ghost Camels. A simple Cryptid, yes. However, there is a story of a more gruesome creature called The Red Ghost. A camel that carries a dead riders skeleton on its back that causes havoc.

In the 1880s a beast was rampaging through the deserts of Arizona. Known as the Red Ghost, this creature quickly became thrust into legend and folklore, but it was an echo of a real piece of history. The Red Ghost, which may have existed—not as a monster but as a camel—was a remnant of a piece of history largely forgotten. In 1855 the US allocated funds for the importation of camels. They were part of an experiment to determine whether camels would be useful for transportation and military operations as the US pushed it's territory towards the Pacific. Known as the Camel Corps, the experiment would ultimately fail despite initial success. The US Civil War would put an end to the Camel Corps and the transcontinental railroad would largely reduce the need for transport animals out west. But the camels that were part of the experiment still remained, and some of them would roam free for decades throughout the Wild West. It's time to tell their story.
