Marvel Cinematic University

AC, Jerome, and Jake are joined by AC's brother Raf to discuss the protests, police brutality, and where we go from here. We'll be back with the regularly scheduled programming next week.

With no new content coming our way any time soon, the team took a look back at 2017's LOGAN. Joining them to breakdown this masterpiece of superhero filmmaking is Mariano Bivins (Count the Dings, DefPen). We discuss how this film benefits from its R-rating, what the X-Men should look like in the MCU, and whether Logan is as washed a dad as AC.

We're not talking about the God of Hammers! Jake, Jerome, Anthony, and guest Michael Springthorpe look back at Thor Odinson's progression through the MCU: what went right, what went wrong, etc. We recap our favorite Thor moments and lines, and discuss where the character should go moving forward.

You know how it is: a trailer for a movie comes out, and we get together to talk about it. It says a lot about our pod that a 36 minute runtime to talk about a two minute trailer is unusually short for us.
