BATMAN

Hello Fall 2023! (Ahsoka, The Flash... and More!)

After a long hiatus, the boys are back in town (and were not referring The Boys on Prime) ready to discuss most of what we missed over the Summer and then some. Trees are changing and the wind is shifting but hang tight while TBC_afp is here to deliver stuff where you may not learn anything yet guaranteed fun if you stick around. #mancougar

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Spoiler Review/ Andor Season Finale/ Kevin Conroy RIP

With the passing of Chadwick Boseman, Hollywood was shaken and the Marvel Studios movie machine was left questioning on how to pivot on the production of its expected sequel to Black Panther. The loss of Boseman left a massive void and for studio head Kevin Feige and director Ryan Coogler to pull the project out of danger. But would they be able to bring reconciliation and healing to those who have lost a friend, a family member and for many an icon.

The Batman (Spoiler Review)

In the immortal parodied words of Alfred Pennyworth, well not really, more like an exchange between British comedians, Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon from the 2014 film The Trip to Italy, we get a tickling Michael Caine impersonation-off exchange that went like this: "I'm not going to bury 'nother Batman!" "Another Batman? How many Batman(s) has he been burying?" Which in reflection hilariously sums up most sentiments from when WB announced in 2019 yet another Batman would be cast for a standalone movie this time directed by Matt Reeves to be set apart from Zack Synder's Batman portrayed by Ben Affleck. This time Robert Pattinson, of Twilight Saga fame, would be cast as the Dark Knight and already fans either felt optimistically cautious or flat out unsure how this project would pan out. As of current having enjoyed being at the top of the box office for only a month, The Batman sits at $676 million and counting, still not quite what Spider-Man No Way Home has accomplished but time will tell. And what do we think? Here's a Riddle: I can be tuned for conversation but not like a piano nor radio. What am I?

Zack Snyder’s Justice League Spoiler Discussion

Second chances or perhaps fluke miracles could be used to describe Zack Snyder’s Justice League, the direct-to-HBO Max’s streaming 4 hour original director’s cut of the flopped 2017 theatrical version, bringing together for the very first time, DC Comic’s superheroes to the big screen. This unexpected opportunity is a clear revelation to both fanboys and critics whether Synder merits creative vindication or not. Join TBC_apf and guests as they deep dive into this released cut. #Apokolipsnow

Joker Spoiler Review + Bonus: Star Wars Rise of Skywalker Trailer

Originally not intended as a point of interest for 2019, We of TBC_afp have turned a complete 180 and were completely surprised by Joker, the now blockbuster stand alone directed by Todd Phillips (The Hangover) and starring Joachin Phoenix, with a tour de force portrayal of Gotham’s Clown Prince of Crime. Yet, in review of the film comes with thought provoking conversation a plenty.

Batman: Road To Justice Part 4

Riddle me this? What do Morgan Freeman from Lean on Me, Mr. Bates from Downton Abbey and almost eight decades of fictional history have in common? Well, the answer is “Batman”, of course, but that doesn’t mean you ought to be shoving Spaghetti into any (“Bat”) Computer in the name of detective work. 

Join TBC a fanboy podcast & friends for an in-depth round table Bat-discussion exploring the heroics, romanticism & complex character profile of DC Comics’ flagship property. 

What will be revealed? That Batman really does sit home to wash his tights? The truth behind Schumacher’s “nipplegate”? Or that Calendar Man will get his own full featured film? Sit tight, get comfortable with some Bat-milk and cookies (yes, the same ones from Scooby Doo) and tune in for a great Bat-Time.

Aquaman/ Cyborg: Road to Justice Part 3

What’s 6’4”, bearded, has a gnarly eyebrow scar and is married to Lisa Bonet? Only that which capsizes all of our manhoods combined here at TBC a fanboy podcast but prior to casting Jason Momoa in Aquaman, Warner Bros.’ upcoming DC epic, this fish talking King of the Seven Seas has endured a long and complex history. TBC a fanboy podcast deep dives (pun intended) again along “The Road to Justice”, profiling each member of The Justice League as portrayed cinematically on the big screen for the very first time. Additionally in discussion, Victor Stone AKA Cyborg, though traditionally a (Teen) Titan by affiliation, also make his cinematic debut as one of “The Six”. Join our TBC fanboys as they come together covering what may potentially be very exciting properties for the DC Cinematic Universe.

Justice League (Spoiler) Review

Gathered together from remote corners of the world are some of the most passionate individuals of all time: TBC (a fanboy podcast)! Dedicated to a single objective- releasing edgy but not offensive apolitical media infotainment content hopefully, toward scoring some lucrative corporation sponsorship, enough to at least break even. But what do The TBCers Three think of the highly anticipated Justice League movie? Will they cry outrage at Henry Cavill’s #MUSTACHEGATE ? Does Zack Synder take a page from Sir Michael Caine and bury another Batman? (Steve Coogan’s The Trip. Look it up….) Are there actual Apache Chief, Black Vulcan, El Dorado & Samurai Easter Eggs that we missed in the movie?

Also in continuation, we pick up where our fellow Super Friends: Apache Chief, Black Vulcan, El Dorado & Samurai, left off along the Road to Justice (League Movie Premiere).

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING REVIEW 

Billy Elliot The Musical veteran and babyfaced Brit actor, Tom Holland portrays Peter Parker/ Spider-Man (the third actor in line for the big screen) in an unprecedented partnership between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING.  In a star studded cast, HOMECOMING is prelude to Marvel's Cinematic Universe's "Phase 4", ushering in an era expanding more characters and talent into the genre. 

And yet, with senses tingling, our TBC Fanboys swing into the chill of the night and deep dive into Marvel's universally recognizable flagship superhero.  As it is one of 2017's most highly anticipated movies of the Summer, lesson may stick (pun intended) that "with great summer blockbuster, comes a great tub of popcorn" with obligatory restroom break in the middle of the movie.

Wonder Woman Film Review: Road To Justice Part 1

Created in the 40’s, Wonder Woman has evolved over the ages brandishing strength, beauty and feminism to many but not without controversy contained in the course of her history.

The crew of To Be Continued a fanboy podcast offer their Wonder Woman film review in this first installment of ROAD TO JUSTICE, inching its way closer to Warner Bros.' ambitious Justice League.

"All the world's waiting for you and the power you possess… Change their minds, and change the world."
