Captain America still lacks leadership – A Review of Captain America: Brave New World pt.2

Ready for more Captain America: Brave New World chaos? Join Kareem, Ken, and Pat as they welcome back special guest Mayday for Part Two of their no-holds-barred review! This isn’t just a podcast; it’s a comedic intervention for the MCU.

Show Notes

What to Expect
In this hilarious hour and a half, the crew dives headfirst into the cinematic quicksand of Brave New World. Prepare for:

Plot Hole Palooza: Seriously, how many plot holes can one movie have? Our hosts and Mayday are on a mission to count them all (and maybe plug a few with their own wild theories).

Character Inconsistency Carnage: Did these characters even read their own scripts? The gang dissects every head-scratching decision and personality shift.

Reshoot Rhapsody: You can practically see the seams! They’ll poke fun at the glaringly obvious reshoots and try to make sense of the Frankenstein’s monster of a movie that resulted.

But it’s not all doom and gloom! With their collective MCU mastery, this group of tangential giants (and Mayday!) basically rewrite two or three different movies from the Brave New World wreckage. Get ready for:

A Red Hulk and Betty Ross story that actually makes sense.

A Captain America recruitment movie that feels… You know, recruitment-y.

A surprisingly plausible (and genuinely exciting) introduction to a full-fledged mutant storyline in the MCU!

Don’t miss out on the most entertaining breakdown of a superhero movie you’ll hear all week. Hit play and commiserate (or celebrate!) with the Tangential Giants!

EP.120 – Jimmy Olsen's Manosphere Problem – A Review of James Gunn's Superman pt.4 Tangential Giants Podcast

The Tangential Giants return to finally wrap up their review of James Gunn’s Superman, and somehow, the last stretch of the movie gives them even more chaos to chew on. Kareem, Ken, Pat, and guest Tim dive straight into Jimmy Olsen’s full-blown Manosphere spiral, because apparently, even in the DCU, no one is safe from a podcast algorithm gone rogue.From there, the crew takes a hard look at the new Kents, who are depicted as so financially underwater that even Smallville’s cows are probably judging them. Then comes Lex Luthor’s army of Musk-like minions, a collection of tech bros who look like they’d unionize only to demand more stock options in exchange for less dignity.And of course, the episode wouldn’t be complete without discussing this new foul-mouthed Supergirl, who arrives like a cosmic warning label and immediately starts cussing out anyone within a five-mile radius. The Giants try to make sense of it all, but naturally end up wandering into philosophical detours, comic book lore debates, and at least one argument about whether Jimmy Olsen needs therapy or a firmware update.If you enjoy superhero analysis mixed with unhinged tangents, this is the perfect finale to the Superman review saga.#tangentialgiants #superman #jamesgunn #supergirl #jimmyolsen #LexLuthor #dcu #dcuniverse #supermanmovie #comicbookmovies #nerdpodcast #popculturepodcast #dccomics #moviediscussions #superherotalk #podcastlife #dcfans
