Send us a textToday marks the anniversary of one of the most mythologized battles in Anglo-Irish history: the Battle of the Boyne. In July of 1690, King William III soundly defeated James II and secured Ireland's Protestant supremacy while sowing the seeds for centuries of violent conflict. The battle also marks the debut of one of Ireland's most prominent writers, Dr. Jonathan Swift, whose poem "Ode to King William" celebrates the Orange victory.Text of "Ode to King William": https://www.online-literature.com/swift/poems-of-swift/3/Text of “Written for My Son to His Master, on the Anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne": https://www.eighteenthcenturypoetry.org/works/pba35-w0450.shtmlAdditional Music:"Derry's Walls": Sam Wilson and the Loyalists, 1963https://archive.org/details/lp_no-surrender_sam-wilson-the-loyalists/disc1/02.06.+Derry's+Walls.mp3)"Boyne Water": Stuart Eydmann, 2020 https://ia601700.us.archive.org/13/items/raretunes-eydmann-boyne-water/RaretunesEydmannBoyneWater.mp3 "Awake The Trumpet's Lofty Sound": Heroic Music For Organ, Brass And Percussion; New England Brass Ensemble; CBS Masterworks (MS 6354), 1962https://archive.org/details/lp_heroic-music-for-organ-brass-and-percussio_e-power-biggs-new-england-brass-ensembleSupport the showPlease like, subscribe, and rate the podcast on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, or wherever you listen.

This week we're taking a look at Captain America: Brave New World. Set some time after the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Sam Wilson has now fully embraced his title as the new Captain America. Now Sam is summoned to the White House as the newly elected president Ross wants to work with him on rebuilding the Avengers. But trouble quickly ensues when Sam's friend Isaiah Bradley (the former and forgotten Captain America) uncontrollably tries to assassinate the president and is framed for the attempt. Now Sam and his partner Joaquin Torres must race against time to uncover the true culprit and foil an evil plot that unwittingly involves the President. Listen in and find out what we thought!

MCU tries to reset, Murderbot tries to escape emotional damage. This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl break down Captain America: Brave New World, where Sam Wilson's shield meets political paranoia and a very red, very angry Hulk. Then it's back into the soap-operatic arms of Murderbot, as Episode 5 serves up sabotage, sass, and an unexpected anatomy lesson.

Send us a textThe Marvel Cinematic Universe stands at a crossroads, and Captain America: Brave New World perfectly embodies this uncertain moment. What happens when sidekicks become heroes, and their sidekicks become new sidekicks? How does a franchise maintain momentum after its defining narrative conclusion?Sam Wilson's journey from Falcon to Captain America should feel triumphant, but instead reveals deeper issues within the MCU's current direction. The film attempts to resurrect storylines from The Incredible Hulk (2008), finally acknowledges the celestial from Eternals, and introduces adamantium as a bridge to the X-Men universe—yet these connections feel more like obligation than inspiration.While Anthony Mackie brings charisma and conviction to his role, and the action sequences showcase his unique fighting style effectively, the political thriller elements don't reach the heights established by Winter Soldier. President Thaddeus Ross (now played by Harrison Ford) and the return of The Leader as antagonists create intriguing dynamics, but the stakes never feel as consequential as the film wants us to believe.This episode dives deep into what works and what doesn't in Brave New World, while exploring the broader question of MCU fatigue. Have we reached a point where even the most devoted fans are becoming disenchanted? Is there a path forward that recaptures the magic that made these interconnected stories feel special rather than obligatory?We also compare Marvel's approach to continuity with Star Wars', examining how different creative structures lead to different storytelling outcomes. The MCU's "Marvel Parliament" versus Lucasfilm's Story Group reveals fascinating contrasts in how franchises maintain coherence across multiple projects.Whether you're still fully invested in the MCU or feeling the fatigue, this conversation offers fresh perspectives on where superhero storytelling might go from here. Is it time for Marvel to take a break and recalibrate, or push forward into bold new territory?Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbASupport the show

Avengers assemble! In this episode, Shelby and Laura review Marvel's newest superhero movie--Thunderbolts* starring Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The 36th MCU film's marketing campaign promoted IMAX and A24 more than the actual movie, so we were curious to see how it all came together. We analyze the movie's surprising villain--Bob aka Sentry, mental health themes, and backstory plot holes.We dissect the film's lack of diverse casting and Ava Starr's minimal storylines, explain why there was too much homework needed to understand the film, highlight our favorite moments, like David Harbour's comedic timing as Alexei Shostakov, question why Bucky Barnes is a US Congressman, predict who will be in Sam Wilson's Avengers, and debate whether Valentina deserved to have a happy ending.

Rob Edwards is a thirty-year veteran of movies and television who wrote and produced shows including The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Full House, and In Living Color before writing two classic animated films for Walt Disney Feature Animation: the Academy Awards and Golden Globe nominated The Princess and The Frog, and the Academy Awards nominated Treasure Planet. His new project is the graphic novel Defiant: The Story of Robert Smalls. Rob Edwards reflects on being creative for a living, the difference between tourists and pretenders and being a real professional, and how he feels obligated to both teach and entertain in his work. He also shares what it was like working on such iconic TV shows as Roc and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and managing the pressure and responsibility of being one of the few Black creative workers with his range and depth of experience in Hollywood. Rob Edwards also does some sharing about his approach to writing the new Marvel film Captain America: Brave New World and how Anthony Mackie's character “Sam Wilson” (who is now the new “Captain America”) reflects the much deeper history of the long Black Freedom Struggle and the pressure to always succeed in the face of the (near) impossible. On this special Memorial Day episode of the podcast, Chauncey DeVega continues with his annual tradition of reading an account of the first such remembrance day that took place at the end of the Civil War when now free Black Americans buried Union Army war dead in Charleston, South Carolina and honored their sacrifice and victory over the Confederacy with a huge parade. Chauncey also reads an account written by a member of the United States Colored Troops about his experience(s) in the Civil War and doing battle against the forces of the Confederacy who were determined to keep Black people in bondage. And Chauncey DeVega goes on a journey around his neighborhood and has a surreal series of experiences where he was lucky to not be shot by street pirates, learned from a wise honored elder on the bus, and then encountered a young man who claimed to be a time traveler.

On this week's new episode we discuss the latest installment in the MCU: Thunderbolts*But first, why does Cody always need to have the first word? Did this movie have stereotypical MCU humor? Is Marvel back? Did Florence Pugh have an amazing performance as Yelena? Does knowing about The Sentry beforehand spoil the movie? Is Lewis Pullman a nepo baby? What did we think of Wyatt Russell as US Agent? Do we care about Taskmaster? Was this movie overhyped or is this the best post-Endgame movie? Does Jake regret seeing this in theaters? How does this stack up to Captain America: Brave New World and Daredevil: Born Again? What's our post-Endgame rankings? Is the way the movie handles depression too ham-fisted? Did we like Sentry's costume? How does this compare to The Suicide Squad? How does this movie mirror other aspects of the MCU? Did Bucky have Terminator vibes? Should Baron Zemo have been on the team? Which of us are Team U.S. Agent? Who would we be on the Thunderbolts? Was Julia Louis-Dreyfus a great villain? Did Anthony expect them to be called The Dark Avengers? Who's on Sam Wilson's Avengers? What was Wilson Fisk doing in the Void? Does this movie require a lot of previous MCU knowledge?

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?

Trev and Joe are here to record a quick DOFP episode about recent MCU X-Men casting rumors. But then, an unexpected visit from Uatu the Watcher sends us into the multiverse, where the guys do not host an X-Men podcast, but instead are the hosts of Casting Podmerica, a show about all things Captain America. Perfect timing, as the multiverse Trev & Joe are able to review the recently released Captain America: Brave New World, to share their thoughts on how the movie not only stacks up to the previous Captain America films, but how strong of an MCU entry it is in general, at a time when the overall franchise is arguably struggling. Does the film do Sam Wilson justice? Is Harrison Ford actually good as Thunderbolt Ross? Can the movie's trouble production history be felt in the finished product? Trev & Joe of another world discuss all this, and more!

Finally, years after taking the reins from Steve Rogers, Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson finally gets his turn on the big screen.

Austin Taylor from Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries joins us to unpack what's going on.

The shield is back in action! Mike is joined by Chris Stachiw of The Kulturecast to take on Captain America: Brave New World (2025), the latest chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With Anthony Mackie stepping into the role of Captain America, the film explores Sam Wilson's challenges as he navigates political intrigue, old enemies, and new threats—including the return of Tim Blake Nelson's Samuel Sterns, now fully embracing his role as The Leader.Directed by Julius Onah, this entry also introduces Harrison Ford as President Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross and teases the rise of the Serpent Society. But does Brave New World deliver a worthy continuation of the Captain America legacy, or is it another symptom of the MCU's growing pains? Mike and Chris dissect the film's storytelling, action sequences, and its place within the ever-expanding Marvel mythology.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

We're asking the big question: Does it matter who wears the mask?

Does the symbol outweigh the individual? Or does the person behind the mask bring the meaning to life?And that's not all—joining us for this discussion is special guest Jonathan London, director and writer of Paul London: Hero of the Prophecy, a brand-new comic hitting Kickstarter on February 4th!
