Cinematic Universe is a podcast all about superhero and comic book movies and TV. Each episode, we look at one movie or show and find out more about the comics behind the screen. Along the way we run through the latest news across the genre, recommend related reading to explore, and pitch our not-always-entirely-serious ideas for future superhero films. From Iron Man to The Dark Knight, from Scott Pilgrim to Spider-Man, from The Incredibles to Howard the Duck, everything across the entire cinematic universe is in our sights.

Episode 161: Shortcomings (2023)
James, Rhys and Joe take a look at Randall Park's directorial debut, 2023's Shortcomings - which actually is based on an Adrian Tomine comic and therefore could have been a reviewed under the old format, but that's what happens when you ask James what he wants to talk about. PLUS: chat about Coyote Vs. Acme, Kevin Smith's Masters of the Universe, and True Detective.
