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.122 – Wait, You Know Kung Fu Too? – A Review of The State of Martial Arts Films pt.2 – Tangential Giants Podcast

Kareem, Ken, Pat, and returning chaos agent JPG dive into the second half of their martial arts saga, tracing how the genre went from the clean, wide‑shot choreography of the 80s and 90s to the hyper‑edited, camera‑trick chaos that took over in the 2000s.They unpack how The Matrix rewired Hollywood’s brain, how 9‑11 reshaped action aesthetics, and how Jackie Chan’s beautifully reckless stunt work got replaced by gunkata, tactical reloads, and enough quick cuts to make a film editor sweat. Along the way, the crew debates whether modern action is evolution or just caffeine with a budget.If you enjoy martial arts history, pop culture detours, and a guest who refuses to stay on topic, this episode delivers.#tangentialgiants #martialartsmovies #actioncinema #Gunkata #jackiechan #thematrix #filmpodcast #popculturepodcast #moviediscussions
