0185: ...With Thunderous Applause

This is my safer, calmer version of my thoughts on the cancellation of The Acolyte, how it’s part of a pattern of bad decisions from Disney over the years, and why trying to argue away the bigotry it supports doesn’t work, because you should never trust corporations. Ever.

FLITE BOX 0031: The Acolyte

My largely spoiler-free full review of The Acolyte, where I rank it with the rest of the Star Wars shows, and why the diversity of its cast is still the biggest reason its being hated…despite it being the second most successful Star Wars show on Disney+.

0182: One Year Away From Superman

This week I pay my respects to Shelly Duvall and Benji Gregory from ALF and then get into some DC talk about how the impact of Jared Leto’s Joker and Suicide Squad is still appreciated by fans 8 years later, the fact that we’re one year away from Superman(2025), two weeks away from Comic-Con, and how The Penguin and other shows are moving to HBO. Plus, some thoughts on the Gladiator II first trailer.

0181: Superman Set Photos Are SPOILERS

My honest thoughts on the new Superman set photos from Cleveland, including why I won’t share them, the crazy reason we are probably getting so many of them, and how they barely tell us anything AND too much at the same damn time.

Also, some bonus talk about the announcement of Lanterns as an HBO Original Series.
