Everything But Imaginary #447: Avengers Assembling a New Cinematic Landscape?

It’s a day late thanks to the great CX Server Malfunction of (Early May) 2012, but it’s time for this week’s Everything But Imaginary. With The Avengers outpacing everyone’s wildest expectations, it’s time to take a step back and think about what the film may mean for the future… the future of the Avengers franchise, of Marvel Studios, of superhero movies, and of Summer blockbusters in general.

Fair warning: although this is not a review of the film, there are spoiler herein. Read at your own risk.

2 in 1 Showcase At the Movies Episode 21: Thor

It’s time for another At the Movies bonus podcast! Blake, Kenny, Daniel and Jason get together to watch Marvel Studios’ Thor. How did it shape up in the pantheon of comic book movies? How did it hold up compared to the comic? What, exactly, constitutes a spoiler, Kenny? Huh? (People wanting to remain spoiler-free, fear not: we bleeped out Kenny’s blunder.) The summer movie season is upon us, and hopefully this will just be the first of a season of At the Movies Mini-Podcasts!
