  • Episode #87 – Avengers: Infinity War

    For one of the biggest Avengers movies ever, it's only fitting that Perry is joined by one of the biggest Avengers fans ever. Van Allen Plexico—superhero and science fiction novelist, fellow podcaster, and founder of AvengersAssemble.net—returns to the show to talk about Infinity War. We discuss how much of a milestone the film was, the fun of seeing these characters interact onscreen for the first time, the film's interpretation of Thanos compared to the comics, and a whole lot more!

  • Episode #79 – Captain America: The Winter Soldier

    Author Bobby Nash joins the podcast to discuss what many consider to be the crown jewel of the MCU—Captain America: The Winter Soldier. As to be expected with two writers, we dive deep into the characterization aspects of this film and the heavy themes it deals with that are even more relevant today than when this movie came out.

  • Episode #72 – Black Widow

    Fellow Japan-residing Marvel fan Ashley Stockdale makes his Superhero Cinephiles debut to discuss Black Widow. We've got a lot of praise for Florence Pugh and David Harbour, some criticisms about Taskmaster, and talk about how the timing of this movie could have been a lot better.

  • Episode #60 – Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Now that WandaVision is complete, we revisit the film that introduced the Vision and Scarlet Witch. We talk about why even though many consider it the redheaded stepchild of the Avengers films, we both love it. We praise James Spader's underrated performance, discuss how Hawkeye is the glue of the Avengers, and explain why we think Aaron Taylor Johnson is a superior Quicksilver to Evan Peters. And yes, we do address the Black Widow/Hulk stuff that set the internet on fire once upon a time.

  • Episode #39 – The Spirit

    Frank Miller's take on The Spirit opens with Gabriel Macht and Samuel L. Jackson fighting in a pool of literal crap...and that's really the perfect metaphor for this movie. It's the first film the guys review that they hate, and Perry swears to one day make Derrick pay for forcing him to watch it.

  • Episode #38 – Captain America: Civil War

    They say the book is always better than the movie, but that’s definitely NOT the case with Captain America: Civil War. Perry and Derrick go in-depth into all the amazing character dynamics, the introductions of Black Panther and Spider-Man into the MCU, one of the best villains yet, and—of course—the big-ass airport fight scene!
