Marvel's Future: Thrive or Implode in Phase 5

Season 1, Ep. 16

Join us on Retrologic Discord: https://discord.gg/x85Jnenydw

Welcome to Film Logic, a movie podcast looking at the past, present, and future of movies and every fandom inbetween. We are part of the Retro Logic network which includes On-Topic, Retrologic, and Retro Groove. We are not just a network of podcasts but a swell group of geeks on Discord.


Today is an exciting day for Film Logic as we are polishing up our show. That’s right we are getting rid of all that movie talk and doing all skits…JK LOL. No, we are going to do deeper dives and more hardcore chats about the relevant movies, shows, shorts, and streams - Let’s dive in!


Ice breaker:


Everyone tell me

1. Best adaptation from a graphic novel

2. Best adaptation from a book

3. Best TV show turned into a movie


Mike: Road to Perdition, Chronicles of Narnia LWATW, Serenity

Eston: Akira, Ender’s Game, Mission Impossible

Adam: Hellboy (2004), LOTR ROTK, Monty Python and The Holy Grail


The Marvel Conundrum


  1. Understanding Marvel’s iron grasp on the hero market
  2. Do we need to watch all the shows and movies to enjoy the franchise
  3. Are the TV shows messing up the movies? Doctor Strange Multiverse is a prime example


Closing:


  • Thank your listeners and supporters. 🙏
  • Ask for feedback. 🤔
  • How can they connect with you (and where can they send that feedback)? 😉
