Husbands Talking on X is for Show

She's finally here! Captain Marvel, the most hyped hero in the MCU (and on this podcast) finally makes her triumphant debut! As does Nick Fury! And Agent Coulsen! And so, too, does Ronin, but that's less triumphant and more triumphless, I guess. Listen to NEW names in the creative teams as Kevo runs down the BTS on this BAMF! Behold -- then appreciate -- dynamic non-sexualized relationships! Witness Nico's epic meltdown! Kevo and Nico examine the first MCU-female led/directed/many other superlatives film, Captain Marvel!

The smallest heroes get the... weakest sequels? Ant-Man and the Wasp represents a lot of firsts, and also a lot of a lot. Too many plots, too many villains, too much tight-timing plot constraints... Ant-Man and the Wasp, for the first film titled after two heroes and the first to feature a named female hero in the title, is exploding and overwhelmed by too many pieces. Despite that, a series of stellar performances manage to carry Nico and Kevo past that two hour mark, so join the .html team for an all-new MCU and find out all about Ant-Man and the Wasp or, as it should be known, The Wasp and Ant-Man!

The battles are fierce, the scenes are long, and the logic is occasionally lacking, but Avengers: Infinity War is here and drawing to its snappening conclusion! Kevo grapples with how anyone can remotely LIKE Thanos, while -- prepare yourself -- NICO OFFERS A DEFENSE OF STARLORD!?! It's not really a defense as much as a recognition of inevitable conc... just listen to an all new mcu.html, and snap to it!

Avengers: Infinity War hardly feels like a single movie with everything packed into it, and that's why it's gonna take the .HTML guys three episodes to discuss it! Explore the elements that carry from the groundwork films! Discover the complexity of the chronology! Listen as the husbands bemoan the endless barrage of baddies bashing our heroes! Nico is positive about GUARDIANS AND DOCTOR STRANGE?! Kevo allows for robot-love despite no gay-love?! Is this even HTML?! Sure is! This is Avengers: Infinity War on mcu.html!

It began with a man in an iron suit (AND A BOX OF SCRAPS!). It’s all led to Avengers: Infinity War. Nico and Kevo have traced the journey of the MCU from its inception to Infinity War, which is just as packed with behind the scenes as it is with action. They have no choice but to break down the battles and adventures it took to get this film on the screen before they saddle up to the main event!

No matter what makes Black Panther special -- maybe its outside creative team; maybe its strong, black cast (with a greater number of named black characters than the rest of the MCU combined); maybe its strong story -- it's a unique and great Marvel movie. Nico and Kevo take a look at the Oscar-winning, record-breaking Black Panther on an all-new mcu.html!

Thor: Ragnarok was too much movie for just one episode! After a long discussion of the elements that came together to create the film, Nico and Kevo take to the film itself! Ragnarok is unlike any other MCU film before it: not just because it had 4 potentially queer characters (none of whom are/are mentioned to be queer on screen), but because it had heart and humor that the other entries lacked. Celebrate the end of Asgard, put on your favorite winged helmet, and fight it out in the Contest of Champions because this is Thor: Magnadoodle!

Thor is easily one of the MCU's most popular, recognizable, and looked-for characters. But his first two movies pretty regularly rank on the lower end of the critical lists. Why? They kinda suck. But Taika Watiti had a plan... a plan that would transform Thor from a Shakespearean over-the-top family drama to a laid back 80s action thrill ride full of laughs, hot dudes, and legit nerd references. Join Nico and Kevo as they continue their awesome ride through Phase 3 with Thor: Ragnarok!

Last episode, Nico listened as Kevo regaled him with the endless tales of secret corporate dealings, cybercrimes, and box office disappointments. But, in the end, it all led to the most faithful interpretation of high school Peter Parker, played by an actual teenager for the first time… ever. But even this Spidey can give us the blues. With a runtime just over two hours, upwards of four villains, and repetitive battles, Spider-Man: Homecoming took TWO full-length episodes to tell! Sling, thwip, and swing your way through another mcu.html!

It's hard to think of superhero movies without thinking of Tugboat Maguire's Spidey. Oh, wait... I mean Andrew Garfield's Peter Parker. No. Wait. It's Tom Holland now. Okay, so Spider-Man has had THREE ITERATIONS since 2002; how, exactly, did Spider-Man restart so many times? What is it about the web-head that draws audiences back (except for the Garfield ones; sorry, Andy), and why did the MCU so badly need him? And how did Spider-Man: Homecoming wind up one of the MCU movies with the most heroes and side characters? Nico and Kevo discuss how Peter swings back onto movie screens in an all new mcu.html!
