Biff! Superhero TV and movies

A little late due to travel and holiday plans but we’re here with our coverage of the first three episode of Marvel’s Ironheart. We pick up with Riri Williams at MIT and things go off the rails from there as she finds herself embroiled in a life of “fun crime with whacky characters” which, it turns out, isn’t all fun and games. There’s some interesting themes brewing under the sufrace here, some highs and lows, and we’re prompted to ask the question—is Han Solo a weenie?

Batman Begins has turned twenty years old so we chat about how superhero movies have changed over that time. We end up dipping into self-indulgent origin stories for our friendships. Then we cover a couple of recent trailers for Ironheart and Superman.

In an episode that gets dangerously close to the three of us just shooting the breeze we cover some Superhero News that’s been floating around. Casting news for Vision Quest, Eyes of Wakanda, and Black Panther 3. We glue it all together inexpertly by calling out to every other random entertainment fact we can think of.

Daredevil: Born Again wraps up this week with a whole lot more fight, fight, fight than you might expect from a guy who just got shot in the chest.

With the help of an old friend or two he comes to grips with the new reality and buckles down for what’s going to be an even bigger fight to come.

In our Superhero Sweep segment we cover the latest trailer for The Fanstatic Four: First Steps! They look like big ones!

Everyone has difficulties this week as things come to a head. Guy is on vacation and suffers an almost fatal audio loss while in the show our characters come together for a striking dance number. We’re treated to a big reveal for a mystery that was right in front of us but one we’d assumed wasn’t even a mystery. Matt spirals as his relationships with both Heather and Fisk collide at the Black & White ball. Like Matt taking a brutal beating and getting up to keep fighting we bring you our chat about “Isle of Joy”.

Just in the nick of time we’re back to cover episode seven of Daredevil: Born Again. After last week’s showdown in the sewers Matt must track down and stop a serial killer before he strikes again. Did this episode stick a three point hero landing or could it have done with a muse to inspire something a little more daring?
