Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesThough Disney and Marvel Studios have remained tight-lipped and cagey concerning details around the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, the Internet, and a few reputable trades, have collectively discerned that we apparently “know when the Avengers: Doomsday trailer is coming.” The prognosticators have deytermined the trailer will be attached to December's Avatar: Fire & Ash – big news, if true!

"Der weiße Hai" ist der Beginn der modernen Blockbuster-Ära in Hollywood, 1975. Steven Spielberg gilt als empathisches Regie-Wunderkind, der das Publikum mit "E.T." und "Jurassic Park" ins Staunen versetzt, aber auch Persönliches wie "Schindlers Liste" und "Die Fabelmans" auf die Leinwand bringt.

50 years ago, history was made as Jaws was released to theaters and took the first of a few steps (George Lucas would do the same thing a couple years later with a little space movie you might have heard of) in changing the way cinema was made and marketed to the masses. An argument can be made -and is made on this podcast- that 26 year old director Steven Spielberg got a lifetime mulligan in his career with completing the 1975 blockbuster to the masses. How else can you explain him being allowed to direct again after the release of 2004's The Terminal? But boy was it difficult getting there. Listen to this long awaited, near two hour Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as Garrett, Matt, and Adam go over everything that went into the infamously difficult shooting of Jaws, as well as review scene by scene one of movie history's most important films. Or is it? And be sure to come back the next few weeks as Adam watches the Jaws sequels for the very first time.

Tiburón contra Tintorera Para nadie es sorpresa que Tiburón, obra de Steven Spielberg, cumple 50 años en 2025. En Cinegarage hemos celebrado a la película desde hace mucho. Por eso, ahora nos sumamos a la fiesta desde un ángulo diferente. Nos centramos en una de las cientos de películas que, queriendo aprovechar la ola expansiva de Jaws, copiaron, imitaron, exageraron, destrozaron y luego armaron de vuelta lo que Spielberg hizo para bien del género de monstruos, de aventura, de acción y hasta de terror. En este podcast Cinegarage vamos a comparar los logros de Tintorera con los desaciertos de Tiburón… O al revés. Tintorera, escrita y dirigida por René Cardona Jr. (príncipe del cine serie B mexicano), es una peculiaridad en toda regla. Protagonizada por Andrés García y Hugo Stiglitz, tiene, creemos, todo para hacerle frente a uno de los mejores Spielbergs de la historia… O no. Para debatirlo invitamos a Elías Leonardo Salazar, mandamás del proyecto Cinéfilos en Apuros y amante, como nosotros, del cine popular. Tiburón y Tintorera lo son. Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Halloween everyone! Since we released The Long Walk podcast yesterday, we thought we'd give you guys a treat of some Poltergeist talk in this Halloween day, as Garrett's two podcast co-hosts still haven't done that film series with him, he had to get his love for Poltergeist out in some other way. Enter Poltergeist expert David Furtney! Earlier this year Garrett interviewed his friend David Furtney about his love and knowledge of the movie Poltergeist. Not just the first one, but the sequels and remake as well. The interview itself was, in our opinion, very good and insightful. The problem was there just didn't seem like an appropriate time to release said interview to you guys. We feel, October 31st is just as good a time as any. So here we go. If you love Poltergeist, then this is the podcast for you. Garrett and David go into EVERYTHING about the productions of them all. From rumors of a Poltergeist curse, to details concerning a lawsuit filed against producer/writer Steven Spielberg regarding who actually wrote it, to Spielberg himself getting turned down by Stephen King when he approached the author to write it (and what the reason why that didn't happen could be), to THAT rumor regarding who actually directed the 1982 original, to the troubled productions of parts 2 and 3, to the Sam Raimi produced 2014 remake, and ALL in between, David really takes us into the weeds as to how this series got made. Also, what made David love the series so much that he started a website about it (http://www.poltergeist.poltergeistiii.com), as well as what film in the franchise did he initially love most, and ssooo much more. We'd like to thank David for his patience and time, and we feel this interview is well worth the wait. Also, Garrett gives his opinion on how 2025's World Series is turning out, and then closes the show with some talk about the band Garbage and his attendance of a date on what is being hyped as their final North American headlining tour.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!Jurassic World: Rebirth is a visually impressive but narratively uneven return to the dinosaur blockbuster formula. Critics praise its thrilling set pieces, polished effects, and renewed focus on the prehistoric stars that made the franchise iconic. It's a big, loud, entertaining ride that captures some of the old magic, and for audiences simply craving dino mayhem, it largely delivers. The cast is solid, the action sequences are well-executed, and it feels more respectful of the original Jurassic Park tone than some recent installments.But the story itself doesn't quite evolve — it's weighed down by thin characters, predictable plotting, and a few unnecessary subplots. Many reviewers describe it as fun but forgettable, a movie that entertains in the moment yet doesn't leave a lasting impact. That's why it sits at around 50% on Rotten Tomatoes: half the critics enjoyed the spectacle, while the other half felt the franchise is stuck in the past. In short, Rebirth roars but doesn't soar!Remember to grab your 30 day free Audible trial, link is in the show, you will also support DMR!Support the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

On this edition of Parallax Views, we continue our annual Spooky Season series with a chilling deep dive into one of Hollywood's most infamous real-life tragedies — the Twilight Zone: The Movie helicopter crash. Journalist Steve Chain, author of Fly By Night: The Secret Story of Steven Spielberg, Warner Bros., and the Twilight Zone Deaths, joins the show to uncover the haunting true story that forever changed the film industry. Chain's explosive investigation revisits the 1982 disaster that claimed the lives of actor Vic Morrow and two children on set — and the five-year legal battle that followed. Was it a tragic accident, or was there a cover-up to protect some of Hollywood's most powerful names, including John Landis and Steven Spielberg? Chain pulls back the curtain on the shocking evidence, courtroom drama, and corporate maneuvering behind one of Tinseltown's darkest chapters. As part of Parallax Views' spooky season lineup, this episode isn't about ghosts or monsters — it's about real-life horror: power, negligence, and the human cost of spectacle. If you're fascinated by true crime, Hollywood scandals, media history, or the eerie intersection of fame and tragedy, you won't want to miss this one.

What if I told you that the rejection you fear most isn't coming from other people? Most of us spend our lives trying to avoid hearing "no." We don't send the email. We don't make the call. We don't start the business, ask for the promotion, or put ourselves out there—because we're terrified of being rejected. But here's what nobody talks about: there's a type of rejection that's far more painful than anything the world can throw at you. And chances are, you're experiencing it right now without even realizing it. In this episode, I'm sharing a lesson my late sister taught me about rejection—one that completely changed how I approach fear, failure, and putting myself out there. She faced constant rejection as a professional dancer, yet somehow, she never let it stop her. And what she understood is something that successful people like J.K. Rowling, Oprah, and Steven Spielberg all figured out too. In this episode, you'll discover: The two types of rejection we all face (and why one is guaranteed to keep you stuck) What your fear of failure is really costing you The one question that will change how you make decisions forever Why the most successful people are also the most rejected people How to finally stop playing small and start going after what you really want If you've been holding back on something—whether it's a career move, a difficult conversation, or a dream you've been sitting on—this episode will shift everything for you. Ready to stop letting fear run your life? Book a free 20-30 minute coaching call with me and let's talk through what's keeping you stuck and what your next step forward looks like.

“They're heeere…” Join Ian & Megs for our 301st episode as we grab the remote, face the static, and step into the spectral suburbia of Poltergeist (1982). Liam and Kev? They're not with us this week — the house they were recording in was built on an ancient podcast burial ground. We haven't heard from them since, but we're getting some weird interference through the TV… This week we discuss: 301 episodes in — how did we make it this far without getting dragged into the light? How Poltergeist terrified an entire generation while redefining the modern haunted house movie. The age-old debate: how much of this film was Tobe Hooper and how much was Steven Spielberg pulling the spectral strings? Why the film's suburban setting hits harder than gothic castles or spooky mansions — horror in the heart of normality. The infamous curse surrounding the film's production — what's real, what's coincidence, and what's just chilling. Is Poltergeist actually a family drama disguised as horror, and why does that emotional core make the scares land harder? Ian breaks down the film's special effects and practical wizardry — how they still hold up decades later. Ian also shares about some childhood traumas regarding losing beloved toys at school while Megs reminds him that's why you don't bring valuable stuff in Why Poltergeist manages to be scary without ever really being gory — and whether that balance is what makes it timeless. Why do they have a magic remote control and was the guy costuming Dana a creep? And finally, whether Poltergeist is the Best Film Ever — or just the reason we still side-eye our static screens.
