Marvel Cinematic Origins Keith, Paola & Graham

We made it to the end of our journey. Join us one last time as we take a look at the first superhero family in their various film iterations. There's the one that was never released, the one with Jessica Alba, the one where Jessica Alba looks weird and the one that looks like it hates fun just as much as DC does. Thanks for listening!

In the penultimate episode, we dive into Marvel's supernatural/horror offerings. Were you aware that they made a Man-Thing film? Yes, really! We also discuss both Ghost Rider movies and debate about just how much Nicolas Cage is too much.

We journey alongside Bill Bixby as he hitchhikes across America and into our hearts in The Incredible Hulk TV show and movies. We also begrudgingly cover the 2003 Hulk movie that everyone is trying to forget, all in an effort to understand Bruce Banner and the big green monster that he becomes.

We dive into the dark world of the Devil of Hell's Kitchen by exploring the early influences of the Netflix show, compare the theatrical and director's cut of Ben Affleck's Daredevil and talk about the problem that is Elektra.

We cover the Spidey films before he became a part of the MCU, including the made-for-TV movie released in 1977. Join us as we discuss all four versions of Peter Parker, two Harry Osborns, three Aunt Mays and two Uncle Bens dying but not before finding ways of reiterating the phrase, “With great power, comes great responsibility”.

We've made it to the halfway point of our Marvel Cinematic Origins podcast! While technically, the X-Men aren't officially part of the MCU, in this episode, we discuss how the first set of films launched the superhero genre plus we talk about the made-for-TV movie you probably didn't know existed.

Films covered: Generation X (1996), X-Men (2000), X2 (2003), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)
