Take our Poll for the next Film Franchise Jarf and Brad should Fix

Hey Everybody,

Exciting stuff upcoming on the Podcast.  First and Foremost, we've undergone a name change.  Movies That Marvel is now The Cosmic Geppetto Podcast!

Why?  Well, the plan was to use Marvel Movies and Comic Book Movies as the basis for the Podcast with the option to talk about other stuff.  It was observed we were talking about other stuff more and more.  It was causing agitate with guests who worried they couldn't come on if they didn't know the in's and out's of Superman 4: Quest for Peace.

Don't worry, Comic Book Movies will always be part of the show, but as a general interest Pop Culture Podcast, we're free to talk about other cool stuff and not feel bad about it.

Check out our latest episode for more about the name change and other cool stuff coming your way.
