Heroes Retreat with Noel Cruz

The much needed shot of adrenaline the MCU so desperately needed has been delivered. This SPOILER FILLED episode touches on the bold decision by Disney to let Deadpool be Deadpool and reinvigorate a long time beloved character - the Wolverine as only Hugh Jackman can play. Jaw dropping cameos, incredible action sequences, fan service that rewards over two decades worth of dedication to these characters we hold dear and now easily, one of the best MCU films to date. An absolute winner!

“Let’s F#@%ING GO!”

On this past May the 4th - I rewatched Episode I: The Phantom Menace in theaters and came away with a whole new appreciation, love and admiration for what I feel is one of the most important and significant films in Star Wars history. Let’s go back to the beginning and relive an energy, love and enthusiasm for one of the greatest film franchises ever and one of the most treasured experiences I hold dear. May the Force be with you!

Villains. They captivate us, thrill us, frighten us and make our heroes journey worth the watch. They bring forth challenge, chaos, calamity and ultimately - tragedy. On this episode, we look at the top 25 most iconic and admired villains of the superhero genre. Did your choice make the cut? Who got the last laugh? Was the number one spot “Inevitable.” You’ll have to listen and find out. “Wait till they get a load of me!”

The moments that stand the test of time. Iconic, bold, definitive. The scenes that define the characters these films are based on. The Heroes and Villains we love and the hate.

Let’s go - it’s time to take on the biggest moments in the comic book cinematic universe!

In this first episode of 2024, we will discuss two films that have created a buzz amongst fans: one that ends the Snyderverse and the other that is the lowest grossing Marvel/MCU movie to date. We will discuss "superhero fatigue" and if Marvel is as fractured as people have been stating or of this is just the ebb and flow of the cinematic universe. We will briefly review "Echo" and the breath of fresh air it has given a struggling Cinematic Universe. We will also give our thoughts on the Zack Snyder's contribution to the DC Cinematic Universe as it comes to it's conclusion with Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. “Hello, Hello - I’m at a place called Vertigo!”

World’s collide across the multiverse as two of the summer’s biggest films open for their respective brands: DC’s the Flash and Marvel’s Across the Spider-verse.
