It’s clobberin’ time on Popcorn Podcast as we talk Marvel’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps, a bold reboot that blends cosmic stakes, retro flair and emotional family drama. From Pedro Pascal’s stretchy superdad to Vanessa Kirby’s powerhouse Sue Storm, we break down (spoiler-free!) why this might be Marvel’s most grounded superhero story yet – even with all the flying cars. Let's chat H.E.R.B.I.E the robot, Julia Garner’s mesmerising Silver Surfer and... that CGI baby. With Phase Six ignited stronger than Johnny Storm's interest in sexy naked alien women, is this a fantastic first step… or does it flame out?
