The Revengers Podcast

After an unexpected couple of weeks off, Episode 37 of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans is here! For the final episode of 2018, the RTF Trinity unites once more to talk about what's going on out there. From MFR's non-spoiler thoughts on Aquaman, to the trio revealing their Best and Most Disappointing movie experiences of the year, to a long form discussion on the spotlight be shone onto a controversial topic thanks to Bohemian Rhapsody, there's a lot to discuss here. Is it still possible to separate the art from the artist in 2018? Are we as a society still willing to say "Hey, I may think you're despicable. And I'd never want to shake your hand. But I love what you create and will continue to support that, in spite of what I think of you"? Traditionally speaking, we've always been able to do that. Yet that seems to be evolving, so MFR, Vanessa, and Brett share where they personally stand on the Court of Public Opinion and the way folks are choosing to dispatch of perceived evildoers. Aside from that heady discussion, The Revengers also touch on all kinds of current topics. From giving Vanessa, who is of Singaporean heritage, a chance to react to Crazy Rich Asians bombing in China and Marvel developing a Shang Chi film, to discussing what they've been watching lately (including some initial thoughts from MFR about the recent Arrowverse crossovers), and their wishes for you- their wonderful listeners- as we prepare to ring in the new year, it's a loaded conversation. And be sure to stay until the very end for bloopers!

The RTF Trinity is back for another episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans. After a few days away to enjoy the Thanksgiving festivities Vanessa, Brett, and Mario are back to share observations on what movies and TV shows they watched over the break. From there, they dive headfirst into the biggest geek topics on the internet today. From the weekend box office to Matt Reeves' intentions for The Batman (by way of some revealing comments by J.K. Simmons), to Disney's endless cavalcade of remakes (a topic they visit as part of their reaction to the trailer for The Lion King), the latest on the Snyder Cut, and thoughts on how the Rocky/Creed series "should" end.

It's time for another edition of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans! And it's just in time for Thanksgiving, so the Trinity opens things up with a brief discussion about things they're thankful for before getting into the week's top stories. Topics this week include: The Box Office performance of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and how series star Ezra Miller's other WB franchise (The Flash) should step up and help the studio out as they retool the future of the Wizarding World Vanessa, Brett, and Mario react to this week's epic, final Aquaman trailer and discuss its impact on the film's buzz Birds of Prey got an intriguing new title, and what it seems to mean Marvel is rumored to be developing a Rocket & Groot mini-series for Disney+ Oscar Isaac talks Star Wars: Episode IX and the way it hopes to handle Carrie Fisher's legacy as Leia Sylvester Stallone remains the beating heart of the Rocky/Creed franchise, helping out behind the camera on Creed II.

For this week's all-new episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, the RTF Trinity opened up the floor to you, their listeners, and you did not disappoint. You sent in a great array of topics and questions, and Vanessa, Brett, and MFR had an absolute blast sinking their teeth into as many of them as time would allow. It's a very loose, fun episode where the conversation flowed all over the place- including unexpected detours into parts of their fandoms that they don't often get a chance to talk about, like pro wrestling, our idols, M. Night Shyalaman's budding universe, and adapting the Nintendo mythology to the screen. 

For this week's The Revengers Podcast, The Trinity is short its femme fatale Vanessa. But it's okay, they enlisted their pal Isak Wolf from Wobam Entertainment to fill her seat for this jam-packed episode. Mario, Brett, and Isak start things off by discussing the news that Adi Shankar is reportedly developing a LEGEND OF ZELDA TV series, before getting into the week's top trending stories. The topics for this week's Revengers Podcast include: The wait for Matt Reeves' The Batman, and how certain new developments are going to ramp up the pressure for that film to be a modern day classic Lucasfilm has seemingly scrapped his Star Wars Story that was to be dedicated to Boba Fett, and why that's okay Avatar 2 and 3 are in the can, with parts 4 and 5 getting worked on next. Meanwhile, we won't even see the first of these four sequels until December of 2020! Michael Rooker says James Gunn is officially directing DC's Suicide Squad And more!

On this week's episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, hosts Mario-Francisco Robles, Vanessa Lee Bontea, and Brett all dive into the week's big stories. This week's show finds The RTF Trinity sounding off on the fresh news that WB has delayed The Flash again- which leads MFR to cook up one of his patented conspiracy theories! While on that subject, they also touch on the apparent end of Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill's tours of duty as Superman and Batman.  They then turn their attention Sophie Turner's intriguing comments about the next (and likely last) mainline X-Men movie, Dark Phoenix, Chris Evans' backpedaling on his Captain America spoiler, and the cancellation of Iron Fist. From there, they field a few listener questions about: Getting a Superman video game made right More low-budget DC films like Joker we'd like to see Would the "proper Man of Steel" sequel everyone seems to yammer on and on about actually have helped things?

For this week's episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, hosts Mario-Francisco Robles and Vanessa Lee Bontea are short one Brett. So, naturally, they enlisted the help of their RTF brothers Aaron and Chris from The Fanboy Garage for a special crossover episode. On the docket to discuss today: Venom: Non-spoiler reactions to the film, as well as a discussion on the film's success Batman: The foursome chats up the latest rumors about Jack O'Connell being in the running, what that means for the continuity, and how they hope it plays out Avengers 4: With two different rumored titles floating around, The Revengers and the denizens of The Fanboy Garage discuss which one they hopes is real and why! At some point, MFR also waxes philosophical about the beautiful experience he had watching A Star Is Born, and Vanessa manages to go off on a rant about geographically-accurate shrubbery!

On this week's The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, the RTF Trinity of Mario-Francisco Robles, Vanessa Lee Bontea, and Brett Thomas Miro are back to discuss the latest current events in geekdom. They open with a brief chat about Universal developing a female-led Fast and Furious movie and Sony similarly planning a female spinoff of their 21 Jump Street series. With Vanessa being a big fan of Ocean's 8, but generally not being thrilled about movies that are "all" anything, MFR wanted to get her thoughts on this trend. From there, they get into a chat about the box office (where Kevin Hart is once again king), this week's big, new arrival Venom, and the shenanigans surrounding Simon Kinberg's X-Men film, Dark Phoenix. Another topic on the show this week comes off the heels of the revelation that Zack Snyder planned on killing off Batman and the way DC Entertainment totally dropped the ball on explaining what their intentions were with Zack Snyder's DCEU movies- which doomed that chapter before it ever had a chance.

This week's episode of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans is absolutely stacked, and filled with surprises. From an unexpected cameo to start things off, to a spirited- and often hilarious- discussion about all things DC, Marvel, and Geek, right down to a blooper reel at the end, the RTF Trinity has a ton of entertainment for your podcasting delight. This week's topics include: The Joker is dominating everything, and MFR has a crazy conspiracy theory about what Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix are cooking up over there The House With A Clock In Its Walls led the weekend box office, as Jack Black continues to find success in the family film genre Birds of Prey has a release date!

That Bumblebee trailer: Is the Transformers franchise about to be redeemed in a huge way? And more!

On this week's show, hosts Brett Miro and Mario-Francisco Robles have to hold down the fort without Vanessa Bontea- who had to miss Episode 28 of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, because of a scheduling conflict. But it's okay, because it allows the two of them to open things up with their non-spoiler reactions to Shane Black's The Predator, which they saw the night before. From there, they do a deep-dive on the big stories of the week. Namely the RTF Exclusive that Kit Harington was, at one point, being considered to play Batman, the casting news for Swamp Thing, Black Panther making a big push for the Oscars, and then they take some time to answer some listener questions.

On this week's 22nd Edition of The Revengers: The Official Movie & TV Podcast of Revenge of The Fans, Brett and Mario are short a Vanana! Yes, Vanessa Lee Bontea is on vacation, and so Brett Miro and Mario-Francisco Robles must hold down the fort without her, but they make up for the lack of the full-on RTF Trinity by having a very passionate conversation filled with deep-dives on the biggest news and issues affecting geek culture.

This section ends at 45:08] And they wrap up by fielding some really good listener questions, including one about Zack Snyder's intentions with Robin and the DCU.
