It's Pedro Pascal's:world and we just podcast in it. He is just like the Oscar darling of 2023: Everything and Everywhere All At Once. They mind as well cast Pedro as the President of the United Federation of Planets. Maybe then out podcaster Miguel will feel more enthusiatic about Star Trek Picard's newest season. Let's hear how the crew of TBC_afp breaks it down.
#thisistheway
Given the events and announcements that took place July 21- 24 2022 at San Diego Comic Con, We of TBC_afp felt obligated to cover some of these biggest stories. From Kevin Feige's brief look into the immediate MCU future or multiverse futures to the DC Cinematic Universes' not so surprising presence, we are going to get into some drooling or not so mouth watering discussions.

Hello There... Again!
Star Wars Fanboys of all walks, shapes and sizes have dreamed of Ewan McGregor's triumphant return as one of the frachises' flagship characters, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

This podcast episode of TBC_afp is just another pebble tossed into a seemingly large bucket of water. Listen and Enjoy! #likehowyouowenmemes
Moon Knight (Spoiler Discussion) & In The News
When actor Oscar Issac isn't portraying characters stretching throughout the spectrum from Star Wars' Poe Dameron to X-Men Mutant baddie Apocalypse to Dune's Duke Leto Atreides or even voicing animated Spider-Man 2099, He also plays several protagonight due to the titular hero's Dissociative identity disorder in Marvel Studios' Moon Knight on Disney Plus. In Moon Knight we fully get Issac's acting range igniting a spark to one of Marvel's lesser properties.
Also on this podcast episode we catch up on some industry news.
A long time ago... from a great 70's movie franchise called Star Wars, it's creator, George Lucas penned a mysteriously helmeted bounty hunter named Boba Fett as an animated short on the painfully received televised Star Wars Christmas Special. Eventually, this character had made it to the big screen debuting a live action Fett collecting on his bounty by successfully capturing the hero Han Solo thereby bringing a grim conclusion to the original trilogy's second installment, Empire Strikes Back. Following with the sequel, Return of the Jedi, Fett, not really living up to his legend, is immediately vanquished (or so it seemed) by Luke Skywalker during Han's rescue fray. And for decades it had been assumed that Fett had perished, end of story. Nevertheless, there had been non canonical tales of Fett's survival and expansion of his people, the Mandalorians during the years of Star Wars wilderness in comic books. Until Disney acquired Lucasfilm and then years followed leading up to the second season of The Mandalorian (2020) on Disney Plus, where we finally see the return of Boba Fett, portrayed by the franchise's prequel vet, Temuera Morrison who cemented his cinematic status as Boba's dad, Jando and it's clones nearly two decades prior. It was then announced that fans would get an additional series called The Book of Boba Fett leaving fans scratching heads on whether this was something new or a continuation to the widely successful Mandalorian series. On this podcast episode TBC_afp delves and evaluates on how TBOBF faired. So strap in and Slave... err Firespray away.

In one of the most notable iconic Marvel cinematic scenes from The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Clint Barton (portrayed by Jeremy Renner) aka Hawkeye tells Wanda Maximoff "...the city is flying, we're fighting an army of robots... and I have a bow and arrow. None of this makes sense." This pretty much sums up Marvel’s ace archer, Hawkeye who represents the analog superhero in a sea of indestructible gravity defying meta-beings and demigods, nevertheless he remains a fan favorite.
And after years of tail-ending the Avenger cast roster on the big screen, Renner finally gets his time to shine. Only it is on the small screen with his own series on Disney Plus. Additionally, Renner shares his marquee along with popstar/ film ingenue, Hailee Steinfeld who also makes her debuts as... Hawkeye.
None of this makes sense indeed or will it?
Trick arrows or not, TBC_afp is bowed up and ready to draw.

If the start of the pandemic was only a couple of years ago (and without trivializing the impact of its events) then Tom Holland's MCU entry as Spider-Man, in 2016's Captain America: Civil War, seemed just like another lifetime ago. And now, by the time this podcast is out, Spider-Man: No Way Home has triumpiantly captured "post-pandemic" box office gold with still having more steam since it's December 2021 release. On this episode of TBC_afp we get into the sauce of the excitement surrounding Spider-Man: NWH and it's well/ not so well kept secrets.

Since the launch of Disney Plus there have been, in our opinion, some Marvel Studios streaming contect hits and misses from Loki to WandaVision to The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Season One of the anthology What If has wrapped up. A Twilight Zonesque animated show exploring the MCU's infinite possiblilities (originally based on Marvel's comic book of the same name), leaves us with opportunity for passioned discussion. Success or flop?
#iamthewatcher
The Summer is over and TBC_afp is back after some hiatus, returning to the studio with full on piling mail and upcoming content. First on the list: Marvel Studios', maybe not maybe "experiment" and now certifiable blockbuster, Shang Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings with an all-star Asian cast. It’s got spectacular martial arts, action, family-drama and (spoilers) Avengers but is it TBC_afp certified Thumbs Fresh or Bomb? In-person schooling is back with masks... We are without a mascot... So let's jump right in.

After a decade, years in the making and months of delayed release dates due to the Pandemic, The Avenging First Lady of the MCU, Black Widow finally gets her solo film. The crew of TBC_afp give their take on whether Scarlett Johanssen and company delivery a hit or miss. Also, in this episode, Disney Plus' Loki finale. #powertotheproletariat
For about a decade, Tom Hiddleston has breathed not only life but also a anglo sexy wretchedness into the MCU's first Phase One Arch Villain, Loki, Asgardian God of Mischief. With that Hiddleston single-handedly popularized this Thor nemesis so much to the affect that Disney+ has gloriously (and purposely) released a mini-series chronicling further adventures. TBC_apf delivers a mid series low down but also in this episode, a bit of entertainment news, etc.

After a hiatus of proportions critical to the American identity, the intrepid crew TBC_afp crawled out of the fallout rubble to bring back nerd normalcy. Inaugurating a new year, though tiptoeing on eggshells due to the still raging global pandemic, we hope in continuing celebration of all things sci-fi, comicbook and geekdom culture. Let’s do this 2021!

As the recent death of Chadwick Boseman (August 28, 2020) has garnered messages of loss and mourning from celebrities and fan admirers, we here at TBC_afp felt it necessary to drop our originally planned content to address the life, work and impact from what is now, a legend in the making. #ChadwickBoseman #RIP #WAKANDAFOREVER
Due to recent events of the Covid_19 pandemic, we now live in different times. We of TBC_afp are adapting hoping to put out more content albeit remotely. This current episode was recorded over Zoom on April 23, 2020.
We ring in 2020 in attempt to wrap up on the undying Skywalker saga but what ensued to no one's surprise followed madness, infamy beyond the average Star Wars fanboy’s taste… On this episode, we get into that big Mando Season 1 finale reveal, we give opportunity for return guests to give their 2 cents on TROS. Also, for fans of Rush (as in the band) we own tribute to Neil Peart.

40 years in the making has led to this moment, the last cinematic installment of what shall be referred to as The Skywalker Saga, with Star Wars: TROS (aka episode IX). We say farewell (for now) to Star Wars characters old and young as envisioned by director J.J. Abrams but certainly it has not all been received with laurels since the 2015 blockbuster revival with The Force Awakens. Let us rings in the new year in spoilage discussion a plenty as the crew of TBC_afp weighs in on whether Skywalker rises or sinks.
#ThisIsTheWay #WhoisRey
Indeed, 2019 proves to be a significant year for Lucasfilm but will Star Wars episode IX be embraced by fanboys or will another internet troll riddened civil war breakout as when Episode VIII, The Last Jedi divided fans. Meanwhile, we are joined by the intrepid crew of TBC_afp as they hyperdrive right into Lucasfilm/Disney+’s runaway hit, The Mandalorian which currently appears to be a safe spot for everyone to unite in enjoyment. #THISISWAY
