Episode 24-Comics Using Media to their Best? Batman’s Wedding

Batman’s Wedding happened…. Nope, No it didn’t

In the wake of Batman’s Wedding that didn’t happen along with Peter & Kitty’s wedding; also didn’t happen (Who cares about Gambit and Rogue) the guys started Thinking, (I know it’s dangerous when they do that) How many big media events happen in comics that don’t pan out.

Well these thoughts bring up the following:

  • Batman and Catwoman are gonna get married anyway
  • Why are comics failing to spread to larger audiences
  • Marvel fails Even though they has 17 Billion in free advertisement from the largest movie franchise?
  • The Death of Superman is a perfect example of a media chance missed
  • Why can’t Marvel match up in their comics with what’s going on in the Movies
  • Why is Captain America never around in the comics, when his movie is out?
  • Separate Politics from comics or at least disguise it better!
  • The guys actually almost stay on topic for most of the episode

It doesn’t even stop there, the guys go on so much more examples of missed media opportunities that could’ve benefited the comic industry.

Episode 22-The Future of the DCEU

What is going on with the DCEU Movies

It’s not a new thing for the guys to bemoan the DCEU, heck I think they did it last week, but this is it….. the end of it. No more complaining and whining about the DC movies until they give us a reason to…… which based on what they guys think of the upcoming Aquaman movie, wont be long in coming.

Pete is out again this week, handling his pain in his own way. So this week at the Geek table will be once again Mike, Mike and Beau to discuss such topic as:

  • What is coming out for the DCEU?
  • What went wrong and how can they fix it?
  • Was even the Watchmen good?
  • Wonder Woman was an awesome movie or are we just abuse victims and it’s an okay movie?
  • Will Marvel last past Kevin Fiege?
  • Why does DC have such a problem with Superman?
  • Should Dc stop trying to subvert the genre and just embrace it?

It doesn’t stop there, the guys start the episode by giving testimonial to what hurt them most out of the DCEU…. Guys really it’s not that serious!!!
