#Podcast | Comenzamos oficialmente la 2da temporada de The MCU is Dead Podcast hablando de Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Kan Disney's Daredevil leve op til forventningerne? Daredevil: Born Again er både en efterfølger og et soft reboot af den roste Daredevil-serie, der kørte på Netflix fra 2015-2018. Serien blev skabt af Drew Goddard, som også har skrevet film som The Martian, Cloverfield og Cabin in the Woods. Den blev særligt rost for sine intense actionscener og den rå udgave af Daredevil-karakteren, som var meget tro mod tegneserien.Da serien og streaming generelt var en stor succes, begyndte Disney i 2015 at arbejde på deres egen streamingtjeneste, og i 2019 gik Disney+ i luften. Disney fjernede derfor alt indhold fra tidligere samarbejdspartnere, og til mange fans' store ærgrelse var et af de produkter, der blev stoppet, Netflix-serien Daredevil.Fans tryglede Disney om at genoplive serien og gøre den til en del af det populære Marvel Cinematic Universe, hvor film som The Avengers, Iron Man og Guardians of the Galaxy også hørte hjemme. Skuespillerne fra serien, Charlie Cox og Vincent D'Onofrio, der spillede henholdsvis Daredevil og Kingpin, virkede også interesserede i at genoplive deres karakterer.Og Disney lyttede. I 2021 dukkede Kingpin op i Disney+-serien Hawkeye, og Daredevil dukkede op i Spider-Man: No Way Home. I 2022 begyndte udviklingen af en ny Daredevil-serie, men det har – kort sagt – været noget af et rod. Forfatteren Drew Goddard vendte ikke tilbage, og der har løbende været forskellige showrunners på serien. Oprindeligt skulle første sæson have været 18 afsnit, men i 2023 ændrede Marvel og Disney retningen på serien.Resultatet er ude nu, og Daredevil er nu en officiel del af MCU. Fans har derfor fået, hvad de drømte om – og nu skal vi finde ud af, om det er en god ting eller ej.I denne episode deltager Jacob Ege Hinchely, Simon Klavsen og Morten Urup.Tusind tak, fordi du lytter med.

A note to our listeners: We are taking a little break from the podcast due to some current hardships in our family. We should be back by June 2025, and we will keep you updated on our Instagram (@significantlovers). Now on to the show... The year was 2016. A relatively unknown British actor named Tom Holland had just recently been cast (the year prior) as the newest Spider-Man. He made his first appearance in the film Captain America: Civil War, and his solo trilogy as the famous web-slinger had been officially green-lit. The world was abuzz with speculation as to who would play Tom's on-screen love interest, MJ. Enter Zendaya Coleman (or just Zendaya, as she liked to be called), a Disney Channels star with a promising career in Hollywood ahead of her. Especially once she landed her first feature film role in the upcoming Spider-Man movie. From then on Tom and Zendaya were known to the public as co-stars. And then friends. And then someone more?…In this episode, we dive into the fascinating relationship between Tom Holland and Zendaya. From their iconic on-screen chemistry in Spider-Man to their real-life bond, we explore how their friendship eventually blossomed into the romantic relationship that everyone knows and loves today. But don't you worry, their relationship may not have been as perfect as you may think. Ever heard of Jacob Elordi? You certainly will during this episode. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just curious about their connection, this episode has all the details you won't want to miss!1. Zendaya and Tom Talk About Their First Meeting: 0:00 - 0:502.

The MCU is once again in the spotlight as major Avengers: The Kang Dynasty leaks have surfaced online—and we're diving into everything we've learned. On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down the original plan for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, its evolution into Avengers: Doomsday, and what it all means for Marvel Phase 5, Secret Wars, and the future of the Multiverse Saga. Marvel Studios seems to have scrapped Kang as the main villain in favor of Doctor Doom—and for good reason. After Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania flopped and Jonathan Majors' legal issues became a major concern, insiders say the studio lost faith in the Council of Kangs storyline. Now, with Stephen McFeely rewriting both Avengers 5 and Secret Wars, and the Russo Brothers returning to direct, the entire direction has shifted. We're breaking down the leaked Kang Dynasty script that includes wild reveals like a Moon Knight team-up, Miles Morales' MCU debut, a Deadpool 3 crossover, and even a Spider-Man: No Way Home reunion. Plus, what role was Doctor Doom supposed to play before becoming the central threat in Avengers: Doomsday? And how does this affect the lead-in to Avengers: Secret Wars? Other stories covered: Captain America: Brave New World nears $200M at the domestic box office. A Working Man dominates Snow White in a surprise upset. Warner Bros. shakeups and early talks of new leadership. First reactions for The Minecraft Movie are in—and they're surprisingly mixed but intriguing. AND — in a massive shift — Warner Bros. has completed the worldwide sale of Coyote vs. Acme to Ketchup Entertainment. Yes, the previously shelved, fan-beloved Looney Tunes film is back! The Wile E. Coyote movie—starring Will Forte, John Cena, and Lana Condor, directed by Dave Green and written by Samy Burch—was shelved for tax reasons despite strong test screenings. But now it's getting a theatrical release in 2026, with Ketchup shelling out close to $50 million for the rights. Produced by James Gunn, this film has become symbolic of Hollywood's internal battles between artistry and cost-cutting. Marvel. DC. Box office drama. Studio shakeups. Leaks. Come for the nerd news—stay for the chaos.

Production for the next installment in the Spider-Man franchise is ramping up, and it appears Tom Holland will be joined by a new co-star. Multiple sources confirm that Stranger Things star Sadie Sink is set to join the upcoming Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios project, though details surrounding her role remain under wraps.Marvel and Sony have yet to comment on the casting, but Sink's addition marks a significant shift in the franchise's evolving cast. Following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker's world was reset, setting the stage for fresh faces to enter the mix while familiar characters may take a step back.With Sink's signature red hair and growing reputation in Hollywood, fans have begun speculating about which character she could be portraying. The most prominent theory is that she will debut as Jean Grey, marking the beginning of the X-Men's integration into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, other Spider-Man characters, such as Mary Jane Watson or Felicia Hardy (Black Cat), remain possibilities.Whoever she plays, the role is expected to be significant, with insiders indicating that Sink's involvement will be pivotal in shaping the future of the franchise.With the trilogy's original arc concluding in No Way Home, the next Spider-Man movie is set to explore new territory. Holland's Peter Parker now exists in a world where no one remembers him, allowing for a fresh start in storytelling. This shift also means an opportunity to introduce new allies—and adversaries—into his life.The film will be directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for his work on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, with Amy Pascal and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige producing.Sink has been in high demand following her breakout performance in Stranger Things, and her career shows no signs of slowing down. She recently wrapped filming on the Netflix series' final season, which is set to premiere in 2025. Before stepping onto the Spider-Man set, she will appear in the Broadway production John Proctor Is the Villain (opening April 4) and in the upcoming Searchlight musical O'Dessa, which debuted to strong reviews at SXSW and is set for a Hulu release next week.As for Holland, he is currently filming Christopher Nolan's upcoming epic The Odyssey and is expected to begin work on Spider-Man once that wraps.With production set to begin later this year, Sink's casting adds another layer of intrigue to an already highly anticipated film. Whether she's playing an X-Men mutant, a Spider-Man love interest, or a completely new character, her involvement signals a major moment for both the MCU and her own rising career.Who Is Sink Playing?

You could argue that the world was in such a bad emotional place around Christmas 2021 that critics and audiences would have embraced the most transparent attempts at capitalizing on feel-good nostalgia.

In March 2019, The Walt Disney Company officially completed its $71.3 billion purchase of 21st Century Fox and gained the film rights to several Marvel Comics characters for Marvel Studios, including Deadpool and the X-Men. After a long development period, Marvel Studios finally announced plans to incorporate the R-rated Deadpool franchise into the relatively family-friendly Marvel Cinematic Universe. In an unexpected twist, Hugh Jackman joined the cast to reprise his role as Wolverine, last seen in 2017's Logan, teaming up with Deadpool in this multiverse-spanning movie that pays homage to the Fox films. The first R-rated movie directly distributed under Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures became the highest grossing R rated movie of all time, the second-highest grossing movie of 2024, and the highest grossing MCU outing since Spider-Man: No Way Home - another multiverse mash-up movie with legacy nods. Now we're sticking our fingers where they don't belong: right in Deadpool & Wolverine! You are my Anchor Being.

Whatever movie followed Avengers: Endgame would have the benefit of not having to do a thing to get people to watch it… and the disadvantage of it being impossible for it to live up to Endgame's epic scale. Spidey drew the short-straw, if you can call it that when your movie grosses a billion dollars, and FAR FROM HOME seems to be the least liked of the Tom Holland movies.

Full article here (Subscription Required) Movie Box Office Receipts - An Analysis You may have heard us say that the movie theater business is in decline. With streaming services and short theatrical release windows people are not going to movie theaters. Here's a look at the Box Office Numbers and what has been driving them. These numbers and data were found on Box Office Mojo by IMDB and are for the original US release. For comparisons the dollars have been adjusted for inflation to 2024 dollars. Top 5 Box Office Receipts: Year Box Office 2024 $ #1 Release 2018 $11.8B $14.8 Black Panther 2016 $11.4 $15.0 Finding Dory 2019 $11.4 $14.1 Avengers:Endgame 2015 $11.1 $14.8 Jurassic World 2017 $11.0 $14.2 Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi Last Five Years Box Office Receipts: Year Box Office 2024 $ #1 Release 2024 $8.5 $8.5 Inside Out 2023 $8.9 $9.2 Barbie 2022 $7.4 $8.0 Top Gun: Maverick 2021 $4.5 $5.2 Spider-Man: No Way Home 2020 $2.1 $2.56 Bad Boys for Life Highest Receipts when adjusted for Inflation: Year Box Office 2024 $ #1 Release 2010 $10.6 $15.4 Avatar (Number 1 Grossing movie of all time) 2009 $10.6 $15.4 Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Original Star Wars: 1977 $443M $2.4B Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope 1980 $1,6 $6.1 Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back 1983 $2.7 $8.6 Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi All Numbers below are for the original Release: Avatar - (2010) $750M (2024) $1.1B Avatar (Worldwide) - (2010) $2.7B (2024) $3.9B Top Gun: Maverick - (2022) $719M (2024) $775M Top Gun: Maverick (Worldwide) - (2022) $1.5B (2024) $1.6B Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope - (1977) 307M (2024) $1.6B Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (Worldwide) - (1977) 775M* (2024) $4.0B Box Office Mojo did not have worldwide numbers. We used the-numbers for this value. Inflation Adjusted US Domestic Box Office for the last 25 years: Summary: In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the box office experienced significant growth, with yearly receipts reaching new heights. For instance, in 2002, domestic box office revenues hit a peak of approximately $16 billion when adjusted for inflation. Since then, total box office receipts have fluctuated, especially reacting to global events, such as the 2008 financial crisis, which led to a decrease in consumer spending on entertainment. The last two decades have seen a dominance of comic book adaptations and franchise films (e.g., Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Wars, etc.) at the box office. These films often dominate annual box office charts, with some grossing over a billion dollars domestically. Sequels, remakes, and adaptations became staples as studios sought safe investments. The trend has been reinforced by the success of properties with established fan bases. The rise of streaming services (Netflix, Disney+, etc.) has changed how audiences consume films, often leading to decreased box office attendance for certain genres, particularly dramas and non-franchise films. The pandemic and writers strike severely impacted the film industry, with theaters closing and productions halting. The domestic box office fell dramatically in 2020. This decline prompted many studios to rethink release strategies, leading to more simultaneous releases on streaming platforms. Post-pandemic, there has been a gradual recovery, with some films performing exceptionally well, while smaller films continue to face challenges in recapturing pre-pandemic audience levels.

Then they talk about the most recent episodes of ‘Disclaimer,' and how the show seems specifically tailored to fit a vision that Apple has for its streaming service (21:38), and ‘The Rivals,' a new raunchy British comedy on Disney+ (34:56).

Josh Hallam and Alice Oliver (Just Films & That podcast) return to Flixwatcher to review Josh's choice Spider-Man: No Way Home. Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) is the third instalment of the Tom Holland Spider-Man Marvel/Sony franchise. Directed by Jon (Spider-Man: Homecoming) Watts, it sees Tom Holland reprising his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man alongside Zendaya's MJ, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May and Jacob Batalon as Ned. Directly following the events from Spider-Man: Far From Home, Peter Parker's identity as Spider-Man has been revealed by Mysterio. In an effort to restore things back to normal, Peter visits Dr Stange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to cast a spell to make Spider-Man's identity a secret again. When the spell goes wrong, it opens up the multiverse and unleashes several entities connected to Peter into this universe. Spider-Man NWH is the highest grossing Spider-Man film and saw Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield reprise their versions of Spider-Man alongside their respective villains. Some of which were included using previous footage rather than new footage. Recommendability scores for Spider-Man NWH were high, with a runtime of two hours and 28 minutes though scores for repeat viewing were lower, to give an overall rating of 4.05.

Dipping back into the MCU one more time this week, for the film that feels closest to Deadpool & Wolverine, Spider-Man: No Way Home. This 2021 film was the first big dip into the multi-verse in the MCU and stands as the best version of it still, I think. We are all pretty big fans of this one and I was the highest on it when we recorded (probably still as well?). Anyways, it was fun to revisit our excitement around this time and wondering where all of this was going to take us, and us being somewhat right and way wrong! Peter 3 forever! Download. Listen.

The lengthy article is full of facts and figures. It also accidentally answers the question it asks about why this is happening and how to fix it, but it never acknowledges the answer. The answer is right here: Spider-Man: No Way Home, Barbie, Oppenheimer, John Wick 4, Top Gun: Maverick, and Sound of Freedom. Those titles were monster hits during and after the pandemic for one very simple reason: people wanted to see them. The idea that the reasons behind this drop in moviegoing ranks is a whodunnit is absurd. The titles above prove that people will still turn out in droves if they find something appealing. So, how can anyone still blame the pandemic for the drop in moviegoing? If the pandemic was to blame, nothing could succeed in theaters. Plus, Taylor Swift’s big 2023 concert tour proves the moviegoing demo isn’t afraid to congregate or come out of their homes. She’s packing them in up to the rafters. The article also suggests moviegoers are tired of aging franchises. How can that be true when the fifth biggest global blockbuster of 2023 was the tenth chapter in the 24-year-old Fast & Furious franchise? The article suggests moviegoers are tired of superheroes. How can that be true when Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 was 2023’s fourth biggest global blockbuster? Audiences worn out by franchises and superhero movies would not go to see any aging franchise or superhero movie. Fast X and Guardians became hits because people wanted to see them. But why Fast X and Guardians 3, and not Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny? Another simple answer… Dial of Destiny emasculated and shamed its hero with an unappealing girl sidekick, while Fast X and Guardians 3 remained true to their characters and what made them iconic. The “existential” truth, and we all know it, is this: Ever since Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016, Hollywood has sought to punish, insult, and alienate Trump voters (half the country) by way of cinematic tantrums that scold and dehumanize us due to our gender, faith, political beliefs, and overall normalcy. Hollywood’s insane crusade against decent people (and decency) hit warp speed after the murder of George Floyd with a legion of movies where no one behaves or interacts normally. In order to push its social and political agenda, everyone’s a simple-minded stand-in for us evil normal people or the oh-so noble BIPOCLGBTQTARDs. Disney is now “queering” our children. Indiana Jones is criticized as a colonialist. Luke Skywalker is a child murderer. Buzz Lightyear is a GLAAD crusader. Thor learns to wear an apron. On top of that, movie after movie tells us sexual deviancy, mental illness, and narcissism are virtues. Worst of all, our heroes, the very characters that made these franchises golden geese for decades, are deconstructed, portrayed as bigots, and replaced with girls and racial minorities for no good reason other than tokenism. Sometimes, as the Equalizer franchise proved, there is a good reason — Denzel Washington is awesome. Mostly, though, the tokenism is so ham-handed and off-putting that the bad taste in our mouths tells us not to bother purchasing a ticket. There’s no mystery here: movies suck. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2024/01/07/two-hikers-killed-by-avalanche-in-the-italian-alps-near-switzerland/ Two Hikers Killed by Avalanche in the Italian Alps Near Switzerland Two hikers on snowshoes were killed by an avalanche in the Italian Alps near Switzerland, a rescue service said Sunday. The avalanche occurred around noon on Sunday at the 2,200-meter (7,200-foot) level in the Formazza valley in the Piedmont region, said Federico Catania, a spokesperson for Italy’s alpine rescue service. The force of the avalanche pushed one of the victims into a lake near the bottom of the slope, while the other body was found in the mass of snow, he said. Despite strong winds, a helicopter was able to lower a rescue team aided by a dog unit. The identities of the two victims weren’t immediately released. A search operation was launched after guards at a nearby dike reported seeing an avalanche strike two hikers, Catania said. An initial search by foot failed to find the hikers, prompting the use of the helicopter. A firefighters helicopter carrying divers was dispatched to recover the body from the lake, rescuers said. https://americanmilitarynews.com/2024/01/iran-sends-warship-to-red-sea-after-us-sinks-houthi-boats/#google_vignette Iran sends warship to Red Sea after US sinks Houthi boats Iran dispatched a warship to the Red Sea after the U.S. Navy destroyed three Houthi boats, a move that risks ratcheting up tensions and complicates Washington’s goal of securing a waterway that’s vital to global trade. The Alborz destroyer traversed the Bab El-Mandeb strait, a narrow choke point between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, on Monday, Iranian state media said without providing further information on the vessel’s mission. Iran’s foray into the Red Sea a day after the U.S. action compounds a highly volatile situation in the channel that handles about 12% of the world’s commerce. The move could be seen as a challenge to the U.S.-led maritime task force established last month to halt attacks on ships by the Tehran-backed Houthi rebels who control a swath of Yemen’s northwest, including the capital Sanaa and the Red Sea port of Al-Hudaydah. The Houthis, in November, began attacking vessels they claimed were headed to or owned by entities in Israel in a bid to end an Israeli offensive in Gaza, after Hamas, a U.S.-designated terrorist group, staged a shock attack inside Israel on Oct. 7. In one month, the Houthis hijacked one container ship and launched more than 100 drone and ballistic missile attacks, targeting 10 merchant vessels involving more than 35 different nations, according to the Pentagon. Operation Prosperity Guardian, involving the navies of the U.S. and nine other nations, swung into action from Dec. 19 and had a fierce encounter with the militants on Sunday. Helicopters aboard two U.S. destroyers in the Red Sea, the USS Eisenhower and the USS Gravely, responded to a distress call by the Maersk Hangzhou as Houthis in four speedboats tried to board the vessel, according to the U.S. military. Houthi fighters ignored verbal warnings, fired at the aircraft and triggered a lethal response in which three of the boats were sunk. It was the Houthis’ second major shipping attack in less than 24 hours and came after Denmark announced it was sending a frigate to the Red Sea to join the U.S.-led maritime coalition. The U.S. has accused Iran of being “deeply involved” in the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, which Tehran has denied, but said that it understood the reason for their actions. Iran hasn’t denied supporting the Houthis since the group ousted the internationally recognized government of Yemen in 2014. A Houthi spokesperson, Yahya Saree, confirmed the incident and said 10 of the group’s fighters were dead or missing. He called on Yemenis, Arabs and Muslims to be “ready for all options in confronting the American escalation.” Iran’s show of force in the Red Sea coincided with a visit to Tehran by Mohammed Abdulsalam, a Houthi movement spokesperson and chief negotiator. On Monday, he met with officials at Iran’s foreign ministry following talks with Ali Akbar Ahmadian, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, according to Iran’s Nour News. On Sunday Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian denounced what he called double standards by the U.S. and some Western governments after a telephone conversation with the U.K. Foreign Secretary David Cameron, who urged Iran to rein in the Houthis. “Israel can’t be allowed to massacre women and children and carry out a genocide in Gaza and set fire to the region, but consider stopping an Israeli ship in the Red Sea as endangering the security of this economic waterway,” said Amirabdollahian. Tehran’s moves are ultimately in the service of its own agenda of projecting power and driving Washington out of the region, says Joel Rayburn, a former US diplomat and military officer. “This is what the Iranian regime has always been intending to do with their outpost in Yemen,” said Rayburn. Iran thinks it can establish itself as “a great power sitting astride the region and its waterways.”
