Hello and welcome to Redshirt Cinema Club, a podcast about fandom and watching movies with friends. We’re doing it! We’re getting through Phase One of the MCU, and today that means our opinion lens is focused on 2008’s The Incredible Hulk, a complicated entry in that it came out mere months after Iron Man, features a star in Edward Norton who never returns to the franchise, and is a sort of sequel but not really to 2003’s Hulk directed by Ang Lee. What do we make of it? Let’s find out! Join the Redshirt Cinema Club! Support us at patreon.com/redshirtcinemaclub to receive two bonus episodes every month as well as our newsletter, The Civilian Observer. You can also follow us at x.com/redshirtcinema and get in touch at [email protected]. Here's the schedule for our MCU season...

The truth is, we are watching Iron Man... Listeners, it's time for a reboot. For Edward Norton to become Mark Ruffalo. For Andrew Garfield to become Tom Holland. For us to have a vision, a quest for the podcast once again. It's time for Redshirt versus the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In what we're enigmatically calling Phase Three of the podcast, we’ll be rewatching the biggest movie phenomenon of all time from its inception to the Avengers’ first Assembling. Get ready for tons of cultural context, egregious Stan-Splaining, lots of realising we’re older than we used to be, and a weekly check-in on just how full our Marvel fandom Infinity Gauntlets are getting. Let’s get started with, Iron Man. Join the Redshirt Cinema Club!

Welcome Redshirt team, to the final pre-MCU comic book episode before we dive into the world of The Avengers, singularly and collectively. This week, it's Dave's pick, and he has chosen Constantine - although it proves to be more of a case of Constantin-terruptions as Nath and Rob lead us astray (or should that be ashtray?). Don't hold your breath for this one (though weirdly, we do. Really). Join the Redshirt Cinema Club!

Hello and welcome to Redshirt Cinema Club, a podcast about fandom and watching movies with friends. Today, it’s Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan’s multi-award-winning 2023 biopic of the man who made the bomb. Best Picture. Best actor for Cillian Murphy, Best Director for Nolan himself. But can it win the less-prestigious but harder-to-obtain award for entertaining all three of the Redshirt Cinema Club hosts? Let’s find out! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The end of our Nolan series approaches, as you can tell by the fact we've reached a film that doesn't care about beginnings, or endings, or - more than one of us might argue - what happens in the middle, either. This week we're watching/have watched/will have been about to be watching Tenet, which is like a time-based counterpart to the globe-spanning, dream-plumbing action of Inception. Not content with simply folding Paris back upon itself, Tenet goes one further and folds all of reality, with a war of annihilation moving back along the timeline from the future and about to engulf the present. What does this mean? On the one hand, we sincerely have no idea. On the other, it means bullets that fire backwards, fight scenes between opponents moving in contrary directions through time, car chases where both cars pursue each other at the same time(s), and a final assault that's finished before it begins. Obviously, Bill and Ted would have had this wrapped up in 90 minutes. But what else do we make of Tenet? Join us to find out! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
