They discuss the contrasting characters of Yelena and Natasha, the lack of emotional stakes, and the disappointing representation of female characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The conversation also touches on the impact of Black Widow's death and the legacy of the film, concluding with a call for better-written female characters in future Disney productions.----------Highlights:0:00 ‘Black Widow' Introduction3:51 Opening Scene6:18 Natasha Romanoff: A Compelling Protagonist?14:00 Dreykov and Taskmaster16:39 Female Empowerment and Hollywood25:01 Side Characters31:11 Romanoff's Problems Before Black Widow34:28 Themes and Messages35:46 Lasting Impact of Black Widow#blackwidow #natasharomanoff #yelenabolova #alexeishostakov #redguardian #alostplot #redroom #dreykov #taskmaster #disney #marvel #marvelstudios #mcu #film #filmthoughts #femaleleads #femaleempowerment #thunderbolts #assassins #assassin

Thunderbolts* Marvel has been pretty hit and miss of late, It's TV has been great but some of the films have felt a little under-cooked. We have had a new Captain America film which some thought flew too close to the sun so now it's time for the B-team lineup to take centre stage. Will this NEW film AVENGE the sacred timeline? Will it be a bolt of exciting lightning or more of a belated and low energy roll of thunder? Or...will it change it's title 4 days after release confusing the hell out of everyone?! All 4 of our team of loveable misfits are on board for this show and we each had a fair bit to say about Thunderbolts* especially that damn asterisk!

Marvel might be back—and Thunderbolts* could be the film that kicks off the MCU's redemption arc.

This week, even more things coming to the Disneyland Resort for the 70th, a sneak peek into the Walt animatronic, a new character coming to Avengers Campus, bananas are invading Disneyland later this month, fire heroes were honored, new seating was added to New Orleans Square, we talk to Artist Jerrod Maruyama, and more! Please support the show if you can by going to https://www.dlweekly.net/support/. Check out all of our current partners and exclusive discounts at https://www.dlweekly.net/promos. News: More and more keeps being announced for the 70th Anniversary of Disneyland. A new light, sound, and projection moment will be coming to Carthay Circle and Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure. The moment will be set to the tune “Celebrate Happy,” the theme song for the anniversary. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/guide-to-the-70th-anniversary-at-disneyland-resort/ We have some new details about the Walt Disney animatronic experience coming to the Opera House in July. Various media outlets were invited to the Imagineering campus to see the life-sized concept sculpt, and to learn more about the show. Walt's voice in the show will be his own, with clips of his actual voice were painstakingly assembled from interviews. The animatronic itself is very lifelike. The posture, facial structure, and skin texture are “uncanny” according to MiceChat. – https://www.micechat.com/414430-disneyland-walt-disney-a-magical-life-revealed/ Another character from the Marvel Universe will be dropping by Avengers Campus for a limited time. Red Guardian, who first appeared in Black Widow, and is featured in the new movie Thunderbolts, will be meeting and greeting with guests. You can be sure to find him by checking the Disneyland App. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/meet-the-super-amazing-red-guardian-at-avengers-campus/ If you are going to be in Avengers Campus heading into Cars Land, or the other way around in the near future, be aware that the path between the two by Luigi's is closed. This has been done for construction of a new restroom facility to compliment the new additions to Avengers Campus currently under construction. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ May the 4th was this weekend and the Disney Parks Blog shared a recipe from A Galaxy Far, Far Away. The Felucian Falafel and Hummus Garden Spread from Docking Bay 7 may take some planning – with one step taking from 12-18 hours – but is sure to be a tasty treat! – https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/disney-eats-exclusive-plant-based-star-wars-day-recipe/ Later this month, a fun team will be visiting the parks. The Savannah Bananas, a baseball team similar to the Harlem Globetrotters, will be at Disneyland on May 28, 2025. Special entertainment moments, and themed food and beverages will be on hand to celebrate. – https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/savannah-bananas-disneyland-may-28/ On Monday, May 5, there was a Heroes Salute Cavalcade to honor the first responders of the fires back in January. The Heroes ticket also kicked off to coincide with the cavalcade. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHGVwxv9H1E A rather abrupt change has come to New Orleans Square. The Port Royal Curios and Curiosities shop, right next to the Royal Street Veranda, has been changed into a seating area for diners. Since the shop duplicated the merchandise which can be found at Madame Leota's “Somewhere Beyond” shop, the old location was not needed. The decor was not updated much, except to turn it into a jazzy looking speakeasy. Tables and chairs are scattered about for guests to get out of the heat and find a place to eat. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ At the Emporium on Main Street, there are a set of windows that are decorated with animated scenes from Disney classics. Some of them have been in rough shape in recent times, but they are currently being refurbished for the 70th. No word on when they will be completed, but work is underway. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ SnackChat: 70th Foodie Guide – Disney Eats: Disneyland 70th Celebration Foodie Guide – Disney Parks Blog Discussion Topic: Freelance artist Jerrod Maruyama https://www.instagram.com/jmaruyama/

Daniel and Erwin review tthe latest in the MCU, "Thunderbolts." They talk about the creative team behind it, the smaller scale, the stand out performances from Florence Pugh and David Harbour, and more! Did they love it, did they hate it, or are they Somewhere Between? Listen to find out!Description:Ensnared in a death trap, an unconventional team of antiheroes -- Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster and John Walker -- embarks on a dangerous mission that forces them to confront the darkest corners of their pasts.Release date: May 2, 2025 (USA)Director: Jake SchreierRunning time: 2h 6mStory by: Eric PearsonMPAA rating: PG-13Distributed by: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures
Directed by Jake Schreier, Thunderbolts* is the 36th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe produced by Marvel Studios. An unconventional team of antiheroes assemble -- Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster and John Walker. After finding themselves ensnared in a death trap set by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, these disillusioned castoffs must embark on a dangerous mission that will force them to confront the darkest corners of their pasts. We break down the story, the characters, discuss the film's unique third act, and explore the delivery of the mental health allegory through one of the MCU's most powerful characters.
Marvel's not-so-superteam of rejects has finally hit the big screen... and do they prove to be enough to save the day? We've met characters like the second Black Widow, Red Guardian, The Winter Soldier, U.S. Agent, Taskmaster, and Ghost on the big screen before. How about The Sentry? Who is he and what does his appearance mean for the MCU? Who are the Thunderbolts anyways and what are their comic book origins? Most importantly: does the movie work? There's a lot to talk about with this one so I've got Comic Book Encyclopedia Ian Kerner himself here to chop things up with me and deliver the deep cuts!

Frank and Jonathan break down Marvel's surprise decision to market Thunderbolts as The New Avengers and share a spoiler‑free then spoiler‑filled review of the film. They explore its focus on mental health, standout character arcs, and smaller‑scale storytelling that still packs emotional weight. The episode also features an in‑depth interview with producer Caitlin Delaney, who explains what a service producer really does, how to launch movies on tight budgets, and why mentorship shortens every filmmaker's learning curve. The hosts wrap with the latest entertainment headlines and weekly streaming picks. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Introduction and episode roadmap 00:19 Thunderbolts becomes The New Avengers marketing shift 02:39 Thirty‑second spoiler‑free first reactions 03:09 Themes of loneliness, identity, and reaching out 05:24 Character deep dive: Yelena, Red Guardian, US Agent 07:03 MCU tonal shift toward smaller budgets and bigger heart 10:35 Spoiler zone: Bob versus the void and inception‑style mindscapes 24:02 Indie sensibilities from director Jake Schreier 26:35 Two mid‑credit scenes and future Avengers team speculation 30:44 Ratings: Frank 8 of 10, Jonathan 9 of 10 31:31 News roundup: Gears of War Reloaded, Shōgun season two, Peaky Blinders return, Fantastic Four prequel comics, new Hunger Games film 40:44 Interview: producer Caitlin Delaney on budgets, genre trends, and her online mentorship academy 57:00 Creating passion projects while keeping crews employed 1:06:11 Weekly recommendations and show close Key Takeaways The New Avengers rebrand signals Marvel's intent to elevate a “B‑team” while keeping audience expectations realistic. The film's core message highlights mental health struggles and self‑worth, showing how even “benchwarmers” can rise. Smaller budget and limited CGI allow richer character moments that tug at viewers' emotions. Bob Reynolds / Sentry introduces massive power balanced by bipolar‑coded vulnerability, hinting at future MCU stakes. Indie director Jake Schreier's muted color palette and tight locations give the movie an A24 vibe within the MCU. Two credit tags tease Red Guardian's comedic future and a stronger rival Avengers squad led by Sam Wilson. Producer Caitlin Delaney explains how service producers turn money and script into finished films and why every creative benefits from mentorship. Memorable Quotes “Even the kid on the bench can hit a home run.” — Frank “The boundaries in your mind are also paper thin. You can break through them.” — Jonathan “Everybody in the industry needs to think like a producer now.” — Caitlin Delaney Call to Action Enjoyed the conversation?

Marlon Williams: Ngā Ao E Rua – Two Worlds Filmed over the course of four years, this documentary follows musician Marlon Williams as he takes on a deeply personal project — producing his first album entirely in te reo Māori, Te Whare Tīwekaweka. Williams began his musical journey as a teen, songwriting in Lyttleton, then carved out his own distinctive country sound that quickly took him to the world stage. Now, through te reo Māori, he sets out to reconnect with his Ngāi Tahu and Ngāi Tai roots. Directed by Ursula Grace Williams in her feature debut, the film follows Williams through international tours to quiet home life, all while working on the album. Thunderbolts* Ensnared in a death trap, an unconventional team of antiheroes —Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster and John Walker— embarks on a dangerous mission that forces them to confront the darkest corners of their pasts.
