    The Punisher (1989)

    The Punisher (1989)

    Fellow podcaster Anthony Desiato returns to the show to discuss another Punisher film. This time, we examine the first attempt to bring the Punisher to theaters, the infamous 1989 film starring Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle. But contrary to its awful reputation (and despite some generic 80s action film clichés), it's not half-bad.

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Nic Baldwin is back but thankfully, he's joined by his wife, Dani. That means we get to watch a good movie! This time, we're discussing 2017's Wonder Woman, one of the best DC movies ever made. We talk about the importance of the film, how well it captured the character, and how the third act was a bit of a fumble.

    Ranking the DCEU

    Ranking the DCEU

    Now that the DCEU is officially over, how do the individual entries stack up? Justin De Voe makes his debut on the show to go over a decade of DC films, from Man of Steel to Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. We discuss the origins, the evolution from the Snyderverse into something more fractured, and rank each film. And you might be surprised where we landed on some of these.

    Listen to Justin on the (Not So) Secret Dad's Business podcast [https://notsosecretdadsbusiness.com/portfolio/] and check out his cosplay on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/reallifelobo].

Desi Westside ,

Great Show

It’s a good thing that there are so many superhero/comic book movies, because that means we get to continue to hear Perry & co. discuss them all with passion and insight. Great show for fans of comics, movies, and movies based on comics. 👍
