In this episode, Allan McKay sits down with Hnedel Maximore, VFX Supervisor on Spider-Noir, and Brooke Noska, VFX Producer on the series, for a deep dive into the creative, technical, and production challenges behind one of the most visually distinctive Spider-Man projects to date. Hnedel and Brooke break down how they approached Spider-Noir as a grounded detective noir with superhero elements — balancing period-specific world-building, practical production choices, invisible visual effects, and large-scale hero sequences without letting the VFX overwhelm the story. They discuss the early pitch process, building alignment with showrunners and department heads, and why visual effects needed to be involved from pre-production through final delivery. The conversation gets into the unique black-and-white and color workflow for the show, including the technical lift of supporting both versions, building a pipeline across multiple vendors, protecting the noir look while preserving the richness of the color version, and managing the added storage, editorial, review, render, and QC demands that came with that process. They also discuss the importance of reference, from classic noir films and early color processes to nature, micro-photography, ceramics, period New York construction photography, and practical on-set artifacts. Hnedel and Brooke share how those references informed Sandman, Man-Spider, dream sequences, period Manhattan, and the tactile, organic feel of the series. This is a must-listen for VFX artists, supervisors, producers, filmmakers, and Spider-Man fans interested in how large-scale visual effects are planned, produced, supervised, reviewed, and delivered on a major television schedule — especially when the creative goal is not just spectacle, but a world that feels specific, cinematic, painful, grounded, and one-of-a-kind.

Few modern paranormal mysteries are as unsettling as the phenomenon known as the Black Eyed Kids. Reports from across the world describe pale, emotionless children with completely black eyes appearing unexpectedly and asking for help, a ride, or permission to enter a home. Witnesses often report overwhelming fear and the disturbing feeling that they are interacting with something that only appears human. In this episode of ParaReality, Sandman and Eric "Easy E" Patterson explore two very different theories behind one of the strangest mysteries of the modern paranormal age. Could the Black Eyed Kids be connected to the UFO phenomenon and the long-rumored alien-human hybridization program? Or are they something far older—interdimensional entities or fairy-like beings whose stories have been woven into human folklore for centuries? Together, they examine the origins of the Black Eyed Kids legend, the most famous encounters, the eerie consistency of witness reports, and the similarities these entities share with both UFO lore and ancient traditions involving otherworldly visitors. Are the Black Eyed Kids evidence of a hidden intelligence attempting to blend into human society? Are they manifestations of an ancient phenomenon that has simply adapted to the modern world? Or are they something else entirely? Whatever the answer may be, one thing is certain: the mystery continues. Listen now and decide for yourself. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's time to talk about "Double Cross," the third episode of Spider-Noir, which is perhaps our most plot-heavy installment yet! In discussing the "intricate web" that this show weaves, we discuss the violence and language employed on this show (in a way that works), how Spider-Noir weaves race into its narrative in an intentional way, and how it smartly (and sparingly) returns to the things the show does well. Does "Double Cross" introduce Tombstone? We discuss the newest super-powered human. Joey talks about how he was emotionally affected by Sandman's storyline before making a big discovery about his favorite character on the show. We break down the big showdown and the series' second cliffhanger, and how that makes sense given the directorial duties on the show. This episode (and the next) were helmed by Nzingha Stewart, who is only Cage's second (!) female director; this discovery leads us down a Cage VOD rabbit hole and into the blur of his 2010s movies. Lastly: who got shot?!

This week, DtW answers: What if your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man wasn't so friendly, so modern or so colorful? Spider-Noir is on Prime Video so Dan and Raul can decide what they think about Nic Cage's take on Pet... er, Ben Riley actually! Probably due to contracts, there are no Parkers in this black and white private detective tale that puts the current Spider-Man a 1930s New York City that shoots a lot like modern Los Angeles, but there are plenty of powered up weirdos filling newspaper pages. Some characters are old fashioned takes on previously seen villains like The Sandman, alongside new foes like Tombstone as well as classic Spidey fodder, organized crime. The first two eps covered on this pod give you a great taste of what's to come throughout the series, so come light up your big ol' bug eyes and check it out!

The Greys. Few images in modern culture are as instantly recognizable—or as deeply unsettling. With their oversized black eyes, small gray bodies, and mysterious presence, Grey aliens have become the defining face of the UFO phenomenon. But where did the stories come from, and why have they persisted for decades? In this first installment of the ParaReality Summer Series, Sandman takes a deep dive into the world of the Greys. From the landmark Betty and Barney Hill abduction case and the Roswell controversy to alien abduction reports, the Zeta Reticuli connection, hybridization theories, interdimensional hypotheses, and modern government conspiracy theories, this episode explores the many claims, stories, and mysteries surrounding these enigmatic beings. Are the Greys extraterrestrial visitors from another star system? Interdimensional entities that have interacted with humanity throughout history? Future humans attempting to alter their own timeline? Or are they something else entirely? Join Sandman as he examines the evidence, the theories, the skepticism, and the enduring fascination surrounding one of the most controversial subjects in paranormal history. Keep questioning.

Deze aflevering van Nerd Culture is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/x6HQ--qXhHg Deze week staat Nerd Culture volledig in het teken van nostalgie, superhelden, filmklassiekers en opvallende franchise-updates. Koos en Huey duiken terug naar de jaren 90 met het 30-jarig jubileum van Space Jam en halen herinneringen op aan de ongekende Flippo-rage die Nederlandse schoolpleinen jarenlang domineerde. Daarnaast bespreken ze de nieuwe Amazon-serie Spider-Noir, waarin Nicolas Cage een verrassend duistere versie van Spider-Man neerzet in een film noir-setting vol gangsters, mysterie en Marvel-personages. Verder komen onder meer Toy Story 5, X-Men ’97, The Batman Part II, Masters of the Universe, Baywatch en de Michael Jackson-biopic aan bod. Zoals altijd combineren Koos en Huey het laatste nerdnieuws met persoonlijke herinneringen, scherpe analyses en een flinke dosis nostalgie. Kortom: een aflevering vol popcultuur, filmnieuws, superhelden en klassiekers die je niet wilt missen. Spider-Noir Review Koos en Huey bespreken deze week Spider-Noir, de nieuwe live-action Spider-Man-serie van Amazon en Sony die zich afspeelt in een alternatieve versie van het New York van de jaren 30. De serie volgt een oudere, gebroken Ben Reilly – gespeeld door Nicolas Cage – die jaren na zijn afscheid als gemaskerde held opnieuw in actie moet komen wanneer een mysterieuze zaak hem confronteert met zijn verleden. Met een mix van film noir, detectiveverhalen, gangsterdrama en superheldenactie lijkt Spider-Noir een compleet andere richting op te gaan dan traditionele Spider-Man-verhalen. We bespreken de opvallende setting, de keuze voor Nicolas Cage in de hoofdrol, de cast met personages als Silvermane, Sandman en Black Cat, en natuurlijk of Sony eindelijk een Spider-Man spin-off heeft gemaakt die écht de moeite waard is. Daarnaast kijken we naar de positieve eerste reacties en bespreken we wat deze serie betekent voor de toekomst van Sony’s Spider-Man-universum. Flippo's waren de bom in de jaren '90 Daarnaast duiken Koos en Huey deze week diep de jaren 90 in met een terugblik op een van de grootste verzamelrages die Nederland ooit heeft gekend: Flippo’s. Wat begon als een marketingactie van Smiths-chips groeide in 1995 uit tot een nationaal fenomeen waarbij schoolpleinen veranderden in handelsbeurzen vol Looney Tunes-, Mega-, World- en Flying Flippo’s. We halen herinneringen op aan het sparen, ruilen en spelen om stapels Flippo’s, bespreken hoe Hans Zandvliet onverwacht een miljoenenbusiness creëerde en kijken terug op de unieke combinatie van popcultuur, marketing en nostalgie die een hele generatie kinderen in zijn greep hield. Was dit misschien wel de grootste verzamelhype die Nederland ooit heeft meegemaakt? Dat en meer in deze aflevering van Nerd Culture. Space Jam bestaat 30 jaar Ter ere van het 30-jarig jubileum duiken Koos en Huey deze week terug in een van de meest iconische films uit de jaren 90: Space Jam. De mix van basketbal, Looney Tunes en de wereldberoemde Michael Jordan groeide uit tot een cultureel fenomeen dat een hele generatie gamers, sportfans en filmkijkers wist te bereiken. Drie decennia later kijken we terug op de impact van de film, bespreken we waarom Space Jam nog altijd zo’n nostalgische aantrekkingskracht heeft en vragen we ons af of deze bijzondere crossover vandaag de dag nog hetzelfde effect zou hebben. Is het een tijdloze klassieker of vooral een product van zijn tijd? Dat en meer in deze aflevering van Nerd Culture.Wil je adverteren bij de podcast Nerd Culture óf misschien bij een andere podcast van ILVY Network?

The trench coat is back, the mask is on, and Ben Reilly is officially back in the web-slinging saddle—even if his superhero rust just accidentally saved a mob boss. This week, we are breaking down a massive double-header: Episode 2 ("Tread Lightly") and Episode 3 ("Double Cross") of Spider-Noir.We dive deep into the expanding, gritty landscape of 1930s New York, tracking the clues from Flint Marko's ransacked apartment all the way to the Hooverville raids.Inside This Week's Briefing:The Relapsed Hero: Ben poses as a spectacled plumber to get his gear back, puts Silvermane on notice, and then... completely ruins a police stakeout. We break down that glorious, chaotic car-surfing action sequence and Nic Cage's peak Bogart voice.Sympathy for the "Villains": Spider-Noir is flipping the script on classic Spidey rogues. We react to the live-action debuts of a deteriorating Flint Marko (Sandman) and Lonnie Lincoln (Tombstone) being portrayed as tragic, protective figures rather than outright monsters.Robbie Robertson on the Beat: Robbie gets a firsthand look at the corruption plaguing the city, only for the Daily Bugle to twist the narrative into anti-powered propaganda. We discuss how deep Mayor Morris and Silvermane's ties really go.Cat Hardy's Double Game: Is she a client, a victim, or the mastermind who leaked the liquor transfer in the first place? We map out the clues pointing directly back to The Alcove.Listener Question of the Week: How do you feel about the show turning Sandman and Tombstone's comic book reputations into in-universe political propaganda? Hit us up in the comments or drop us a review with your theories!Don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe to the feed. Tread lightly out there, listeners.

Our hosts react to major highlights like the absolute genius of the "drunken spider monkey" bar fight sequence, Robbie's powerful confrontation calling out Ben for hiding in a hole since Ruby died, and the high-stakes interrogation sequence that plays out like a tense, single-room stage play.

#CageClub is back, and it's a brand new era and a brand new area: TV! After addressing our plans to cover the rest of Spider-Noir on a weekly basis (as well as the two movies we missed), we step into the office with, well, "Step Into My Office." We talk about how this series feels bigger (in terms of critical reception and coverage) than a Cage property has in years, the impact of watching it in black and white (versus choosing the color option), and the extensive New York Times interview just published this week. Then, we dive into the details of the first episode. We have questions, like: Ben Reilly? Is he connected at all to the much-maligned comic series with that character? We talk about the film skipping a traditional origin story for, essentially, a second-origin story for Cage's character. We explore the rogues' gallery starting to take shape - including Silvermane, Sandman, and Black Cat - and how the show exceeding our expectations in spite of some recent superhero burnout. We also discuss how the show nails its noir trappings, and we wonder what's next for this character.
This week we're bringing you a conversation Michael Tamblyn had in 2021 with Natalie Zina Walschots about her extremely fun novel called Hench. It's about a world where superheroes are out there saving the day in super ways, while villains, who are a lot like you and me, run organizations bent on taking over the world while also trying to keep scores up on Glassdoor. Natalie's just released a sequel to Hench, and it's called Villain. [From 2021:] We learned about some of the fantastical worlds Natalie enjoyed exploring as a young reader "often for sheer escapism," as well as the writers she drew inspiration from while starting out as a writer herself, and as a lifelong student of supervillainy: Robert O'Brien's Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH and Z for Zachariah High fantasy including J. R. R. Tolkien, but also Shannara, Dragonlance, and "anything with a wizard holding an orb on the cover" or "a skeleton holding a sword" Christian Bök, Karen Solie, bp Nichol, and other writers "doing super weird things with language and the structural materiality of language..." Soon I Will Be Invincible "was the first book I read from the perspective of a supervillain." "Paradise Lost is really important to me ... the relationship between Satan the adversary to the world informs the way I write villains." Neil Gaiman's Sandman, where "a character who's a villain in one context becomes the protagonist in another." Vicious by V E Schwab Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus and various writings of Catherynne M. Valente for their "messed up fairy tale feel."

What if UFOs aren't extraterrestrial spacecraft at all…but manifestations of something far stranger? In this episode of ParaReality Podcast, Sandman sits down with veteran UFO researcher and author Brent Raynes for a deep exploration into the hidden side of the phenomenon. Drawing from nearly six decades of investigation, Raynes discusses the connections between UFO encounters, Marian apparitions, Mothman, altered states of consciousness, ultraterrestrials, and the enduring influence of legendary researcher John A. Keel. Together, they examine the idea that the paranormal may not be separate phenomena at all—but different masks worn by the same mysterious intelligence. From glowing spheres and contact experiences to psychic phenomena and interdimensional theories, this conversation ventures far beyond traditional “nuts-and-bolts” ufology and into the truly unknown.

With stories from the road, behind-the-scenes creative insights, and a look ahead to their upcoming tour, this episode gives listeners an intimate (and hilarious) glimpse into Sandman Sleeps' next chapter.LINKSSandman Sleeps Official SiteJNC Official SiteSupport us on Patreon
About the Guest Carly Hunt is the Head of Strategic Partnerships of Showerkap, a UK-based water technology company tackling excessive water consumption in the hospitality sector. With over 20 years in hotel management — latterly focused on energy, waste, and water reduction programmes — Carly brings rare operational depth to the sustainability challenge she's now helping to solve. Her academic background in sustainable tourism (the subject of her university dissertation) makes her return to this space something of a full-circle moment. Episode Summary Water scarcity might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you book a hotel room, but it probably should be. In this episode of Shape the System, host Vincent Turner sits down with Carly Hunt, Head of Strategic Partnerships of Showerkap, to explore how the hospitality industry is one of the heaviest — and least scrutinised — consumers of fresh water on the planet. Hotels can use up to eight times more water than local residents, with individual rooms consuming as much as 1,500 litres per day. Meanwhile, the UK's Environment Agency is forecasting a potential shortfall of 1.4 billion litres per day by 2030, rising to 5 billion by 2050. The numbers are stark, and Carly makes the case that demand reduction — not just supply management — has to be part of the answer. Carly's entry into this space came through two decades of hotel management, where she discovered that energy and waste were relatively easy to monitor and reduce, but water was almost impossible to measure at any meaningful resolution. That gap led her to Showerkap, the brainchild of inventor Steve Harding, which combines three elements that have never previously been integrated in the water sector: fixture-level IoT monitoring across an entire building, a cloud-based analytics platform, and a novel shower fade timer that delivers a real-time behavioural nudge — without restricting flow. The pilot results, run across one floor of the Sandman Hotel at Gatwick Airport, were striking. Prior to the intervention, guests were showering for 35 minutes or more — consuming around 245 litres per session. After the shower fade timer was introduced (set to seven minutes), average shower duration across the 20-room eco-floor dropped to just three minutes and 20 seconds. Overall water usage fell by 58%, energy use by 14%, and the projected saving across the full hotel is approximately 2.7 million litres per year. Of the guests who stayed across nearly a year of the pilot, only three declined to participate in the eco-floor — a participation rate that Carly and Vincent calculate at roughly 99%. The commercial case is deliberately straightforward: Showerkap is targeting a two-year payback period, meaning hotels can effectively finance the installation against the savings it generates. Beyond the headline water and energy savings, the technology surfaces hidden operational value — the Sandman pilot uncovered hot water circulation issues throughout the building and enabled early detection of Legionella risk. The go-to-market strategy currently leans on pilots and case studies to build trust in a space where water has historically been undervalued, with an eye toward expansion into the Mediterranean, MENA, and other water-scarce markets. An upcoming back-of-house research piece, potentially in partnership with the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, is expected to extend Showerkap's evidence base well beyond the bathroom. Key Takeaways Hotels use up to eight times more water per person than local residents, with some rooms consuming up to 1,500 litres per day — making demand reduction in hospitality a high-leverage intervention. Showerkap's pilot at the Sandman Hotel, Gatwick, achieved a 58% reduction in shower water usage and cut energy consumption by 14%, with average shower times dropping from 35+ minutes to under three and a half minutes. The technology's payback period is approximately two years, making it financeable against projected savings — a critical threshold for hotel procurement teams weighing up an unfamiliar category. Behavioural nudges, not flow restrictions, drive the results: the shower fade timer gives guests a gentle cue and the option to continue, yet the vast majority choose to reduce — suggesting most water waste is habitual rather than intentional. Showers account for over 50% of hotel bathroom water use, but the IoT platform also surfaces back-of-house inefficiencies in kitchens, laundry, and plumbing systems — unlocking operational and maintenance savings beyond the guest experience. Notable Quotes "Water is one of the most vital resources on earth. And we all know that. And we rarely treat it that way because we automatically run a tap and it's there." — Carly Hunt "Reducing showers by just a couple of minutes can save 20 litres. And if those small actions become millions, then think of the impact that would have." — Carly Hunt "We always say that water intrinsically is linked to everything. We can't do anything without water." — Carly Hunt "We don't want to force anyone to change, because that doesn't work. You have to effectively give them the tools to actually do it themselves." — Carly Hunt Resources Showerkap Sustainable Hospitality Alliance (mentioned in episode) Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth Ventures More about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

Sandman's Midnight Strike: BRICS Petroyuan Treason, Deep State Dollar Doomsday, and the Brutal Burial of America's Kingdom Four years ago – Episode whatever the hell it was back in 2022 – I dropped TWO full shows on the emerging BRICS beast and this shadowy “Project Sandman” or “Operation Sandman.” Back then, the mainstream laughed it off as tinfoil-hat nonsense. “Conspiracy theory,” they sneered. Today's monster episode is the sequel you demanded. We're diving into everything: the 100-year Sandman plan, petroyuan as the poison pill, de-dollarization as the beginning of the end, every deep-state angle from controlled collapse to outright treason, and yes – the brutal, kingdom-ending fall of the United States of America as we know it.

Spider Noir's New Trailer, DCU Changes, and a trailer for House of the Dragon Season 3Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.The official trailer for Prime Video's Spider-Noir was released on Saturday during Mexico City's CCXP pop culture festival. In addition to showcasing our most significant looks at Nicolas Cage in the role, gumshoe Ben Reilly, alongside glimpses of villains Sandman, Electro, Tombstone and Brendan Gleeson's yet-to-be-named mob boss character, the trailer also emphasized the series availability to stream in true noir black and white, or color which they have dubbed “True-Hue Full Color”. Saturday's CCXP Mexico was also the site for HBO Max's unveiling of a new official teaser trailer for House of the Dragon's third season. In typical Game of Thrones fashion, the one minute 55 second teaser hints at power struggles and with high production value on display seemed to deliver on the cast members and showrunners promises of more battles, blood and, of course, dragons.It's been a little quiet on the DCU front outside of last week's Clayface trailer, but we now have multiple updates on multiple projects in the cooker, or perhaps not. First, James Gunn revealed that the DCU movie The Authority is no longer in active development. First announced in he and Peter Safrans' 2023 DCU announcements, Gunn said the film's script “wasn't there” and that it didn't fit into the larger DCU. And regarding the franchise's streaming output, HBO and DC temporarily removed the Lanterns trailer from all official platforms without explanation, possibly due to a music licensing issue with a Bruce Springsteen track used in the teaser; but the trailer is now live again with the song in question removed and added text indicating an August release for the series.Lionsgate's Michael set the record for biggest opening weekend for a musical biopic with $97M domestically and $217M globally, dethroning The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and surpassing the previous record held by Straight Outta Compton at $60.2M.Paramount has released the first teaser trailer for season 4 of Star Trek Strange New Worlds and announced a release date. The upcoming season premiere will debut globally on July 23. The 10-episode season rolls out weekly on Thursdays through Sept. 24Studios and streamers are currently bidding on a feature adaptation of the Battlefield video games which has Mission Impossible filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie attached to write and direct and Sinners star Michael B. Jordan attached to produce and possibly star.As the final season of Prime Video's The Boys comes to a close, the streamer has confirmed that spin off series Gen V will end with the previously aired season 2 and will not continue for a third season and that series prequel Vought Rising will debut sometime in 2027.AppleTV has announced that season 4 of Ted Lasso will debut on August 5th and have released a first look teaser trailer for the upcoming season.Laura Dern has joined the cast of season 4 of HBO's The White Lotus.In an interview with CinemaHub, Andy Serkis seemingly accidentally revealed that Iman Vellani is in Avengers: Doomsday. He told her “I can't wait to see you in Doomsday” to which she responded immediately “no you can't say that”

On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson are back to tackle some of the biggest talking points in professional wrestling today. Eric weighs in on why WWE keeps returning to Las Vegas and what makes the city such a reliable hub for major events. Bischoff also breaks down the business logic behind bringing celebrities into main events, explaining why it continues to be a winning formula when done right. Plus, he shares his candid thoughts on WrestleMania becoming increasingly packed with commercials, and why that approach can both help and hurt the overall product. The conversation heats up as Eric questions whether Brock Lesnar is truly finished with wrestling, and offers some strong advice to WWE on protecting the momentum of rising star Oba Femi. And in a fun twist, Conrad draws comparisons between Danhausen and The Sandman, asking whether Danhausen's personality could be this generation's version of the hardcore icon.
