    Fantastic Four's Inspiration, Funko Dump, and Disney Pulls Back

    Hey all! Welcome to the latest episode of Geek Freaks, the podcast where we discuss all things geeky! In today's episode, we're covering some exciting news and some not-so-exciting news in the world of entertainment. So, let's get started!
    First up, we have some leaked news about the Scooby-Doo and DC crossover movie that was canceled by Warner Bros. Discovery. Despite the cancellation, the movie has become available online, causing a stir among fans. We'll discuss the implications of this leak and what it could mean for the future of the franchise.
    Next, we have some exciting news for Batman fans. Amazon has reportedly picked up the upcoming Batman: Caped Crusader series for two seasons. We'll talk about what we can expect from this new take on the Dark Knight and how it compares to previous Batman adaptations.
    Moving on, Disney CEO Bob Iger has admitted that past theme park pricing was too aggressive. We'll dive into what this means for the future of Disney parks and how it could impact the overall experience for visitors.
    In other news, Jenna Ortega is reportedly in early talks to join the cast of Tim Burton's Beetlejuice 2 alongside Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder. We'll discuss what we know about the sequel so far and our thoughts on this potential casting.
    Unfortunately, we also have some disappointing news. Funko, the popular pop culture collectible company, is set to dump $30 million worth of idle stock in a landfill. We'll examine the environmental impact of this decision and what it means for the future of the company.
    Additionally, Yugipedia, the popular online database for Yu-Gi-Oh! fans, accidentally deleted half of its primary database. We'll discuss the potential consequences of this error and how it affects the community.
    Lastly, we'll dive into Den of Geek's recent article where a Marvel director compares Fantastic Four to Star Trek. We'll examine the similarities and differences between the two franchises and whether or not this comparison holds up.
    That's all for today's episode of Geek Freaks. Be sure to tune in next time for more news and discussions on all things geeky!
