The Revengers Podcast

(PLEASE NOTE: Due to temporary restrictions put in place by Podbean, this episode of THE FANBOY PODCAST is being uploaded onto this feed out of necessity. You'll be able to find it on its regular feed in a few days, once the restrictions have been lifted!)

For this week's holiday edition of The Fanboy Podcast, host Mario-Francisco Robles has created a special "Best of" edition of the show- featuring highlights from three seminal episodes of the show (Episodes 1, 43, and 96).

You'll hear how it all began.

You'll hear highlights from his great Superman-centric chat with the legendary Mark Millar (Old Man Logan, Civil War, Kickass, Kingsman, and so much more!)

And you'll hear the passionate rant about bloggers and the general online fan community that inspired a whole new wave of listeners to the show.

Enjoy!

This week's episode of The Revengers Podcast opens with the trio of Vanessa Lee Bontea, Brett Thomas Miro, and Mario-Francisco Robles sharing their thoughts about what's currently playing in theaters since they just so happen to have seen four out of the top five films at the box office. This means they sound off on Aladdin, Godzilla: King of The Monsters, Rocketman, and John Wick: Chapter 3.

From there, the RTF Trinity shifts gears and reacts to the now official news that Robert Pattinson is the new Batman. But first, MFR shares his final thoughts on the scoop that turned out...not to be a scoop. You know the one. About Armie Hammer being in final talks to play Batman back in February. He's had time to reflect and make additional inquiries, and so he delivers his closing remarks on what happened, why it happened, and why he's not mad he wrote the story.

Then they turn their attention to who they'd want to cast as Catwoman if it's true that she's in Matt Reeves' The Batman, and they wrap up with a little AEW talk since Vanana is a wrestling fan and we've yet to hear what she thought of last week's Double or Nothing PPV.

For this week's episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, the Trinity is short one Vanana...so MFR reached out to his brother from another mother, Robb Moreira of the Play It LOUDCast, to join him and Brett for a spirited discussion on all things The Batman.

From the latest casting rumors, to the controversy surrounding the "announcement" of Robert Pattinson last week, to who our favorite Caped Crusader may face in Matt Reeves' movie, who they'd cast in key roles, and even the world they hope to see Reeves create for the Dark Knight, the trio leaves no stone unturned in terms of digging into the latest buzz around The Batman.

This week's episode has a near singular focus: Marvel's Avengers: Endgame and its epilogue- a little film called Spider-Man: Far From Home. 

Our Revenger Trinity opens with their reaction to Monday's brand new trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home, which eventually leads into a discussion about the multiverse and other byproducts of what was done in Avengers: Endgame. They then spend the heart of the episode discussing some of the issues that have arisen as more people have questioned whether or not the time travel in the film makes any sense.

Along the way, Brett claims to have figured out how it all works(!), Vanana points out how Endgame connects to her infamous hammock story, and MFR shares some knowledge on why Avatar is a masterpiece (and Brett is not having it).

For the 50th Edition of The Revengers Podcast, we thought there'd be no cooler way to commemorate the milestone than by having a full-on roundtable discussion about Avengers: Endgame.

For this very special episode, Revenge of The Fans Editor-in-Chief Mario-Francisco Robles assembled...

The discussion is all Avengers: Endgame, all the time. The first portion is spoiler-free, but at the 8:40 mark a warning is given and they then launch into the *SPOILER* portion of the discussion from then on.

With Avengers: Endgame set to arrive in theaters this Friday, The Trinity spends the first chunk of this week's The Revengers Podcast discussing the monumental cinematic event. From sharing where their current hype is, to who they expect to get killed off, how they think it'll end, and where they'd like to see the Marvel Cinematic Universe go next...there's a lot to talk about.

From there Vanessa, Brett, and MFR touch on a few other interesting topics, including:

The Goonies: Would it (and other nostalgic favorites) be better off getting a sequel TV series like Cobra Kai, as opposed to being remade, rebooted, or sequelized?

Aladdin: Will Smith and Guy Ritchie respond to how overly critical people are on the internet these days, and we reply by discussing that growing trend and whether it's fair or not.

Hobbs and Shaw: The world was just treated to its newest look at the upcoming blockbuster, and it's absurdly over-the-top. The Trinity goes around the pike, sharing what they thought of the trailer and whether they'll see the movie.

And, as usual, more.

Vanana, Bretterson, and MFR are back for another episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie and TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans! This week, they spend most of their attention discussing all of the different bits of news that have arrived from that galaxy far, far away during these last few days. From the arrival of the first trailer for Episode IX, to the reveal of its official title, to unexpected returns, seeming reversals, and new insights into The Mandalorian, there is a lot of Star Wars goodness for the Trinity to sink its teeth into.

They also discuss their thoughts on Shazam! now that Brett was able to see it, and Vanessa shares her non-spoiler thoughts on the Game of Thrones season premiere this past Sunday.

It's a loaded, fun conversation, so what're you waiting for? Give it a listen!

Episode 47 of The Revengers: The Official Movie and TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans is here, and it features Mario-Francisco Robles and Brett Thomas Miro to bring you the best coverage and analysis of the top trending stories in geekdom...all while recovering from enduring a six hour WrestleMania telecast!

The RTF Trinity is back for another stacked episode of The Revengers Podcast. On the agenda this week is a long-form discussion about alternate cuts of movies. They open by discussing the very idea of seeking out a Director's Cut of a movie- touching on their experiences with alternate versions of movies they'd already seen before. Then they dive into a very thorough discussion on the larger revelations that came out of this past weekend's "Snyder Con" fan event, and then wrap up with what they hope will happen if J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot production company come to Warner Bros. and- hopefully- the Worlds of DC.
