spider-man: no way home

The Zealots of Nerd Entertainment continues their review on the MCU, as JetBlackXtreme teams up with Kokugatsu, Professor Tuck and Mira Jane and Kokugatsu to rank the titles of the Phase 4! From the adorable "I Am Groot" to the multiverse-mingling antics of "Loki," we're peeling back the layers of these narratives to reveal what truly makes them tick. Grab your shield, hammer, or cloak of levitation and prepare for a deep dive into character arcs, storytelling brilliance, and the controversies that have stirred the pot among fervent fans.

This episode isn't just about rankings; it's a critical look at how each Marvel offering shapes the ever-expanding canvas of this cinematic behemoth. We're tackling the highs and lows, from Florence Pugh's scene-stealing performance in "Black Widow" to the courtroom drama critiques in "She-Hulk." Plus, we don't hold back on addressing how superhero TV shows like "WandaVision" and "Moon Knight" have redefined our expectations. We’ll share our unfiltered thoughts on cultural representation, fan service, and why some creative choices sparked applause while others ignited debate.

As we wrap up this heroic episode, we're not just reflecting on what's been; we're gazing into the crystal ball of Marvel's future. With the charm of Evan Peters' Quicksilver and the awe-inspiring action of "Spider-Man: No Way Home," we highlight the magic of getting fan service right. Join us as we celebrate the complexities and joys of these tales that continue to captivate us, carve out new narratives, and challenge the status quo of superhero sagas!

For Filipinos who grew up in the Philippines, aside from family and food, there are many little things you know you will always be homesick for. You never really appreciate these things until you move overseas and miss them every day. It is easy to take things for granted. We know this feeling so well. Join us in this episode as we share the simple pleasures we miss back home.

Another biggy that we missed: Spider-Man: No Way Home. Already one of the highest grossing movies of all time, we give our verdict, and talk about why Hollywood is so obsessed with franchises, and whether it's a good thing to want to "heal" all our villains.

„Fyrsti klukkutíminn á Endgame er bara eins og að horfa á mynd eftir Ingmar Bergman.“

Spider-Man: No Way Home er fjórfalt vinsælli en nokkur önnur bíómynd eftir að kófið skall á heimsbyggðinni. En hvað þýðir þetta fyrir heimsbíóið og fyrir Hollywood? Hvað með allar hinar myndirnar? Hvað er besservisserabensín? Og er eitthvað vit í þessum nýjustu ævintýrum Köngulóarmannsins? Við fengum Birtu Ögn Elvarsdóttur, söngleikjafræðing og starfsmann í myndasögubúðinni Nexus, og Arnar Eggert Thoroddsen, tónlistarblaðamann, poppkúltúrfræðing og háskólakennara, til að rýna í málið.

Auk þess ræddum við stuttlega um aðrar stórmyndir síðustu jóla á borð við Sögu úr Vesturbænum (West Side Story), The Matrix Resurrections og Ghostbusters: Afterlife, auk þess sem sjónvarpsserían Euphoria kom við sögu.
