The Thunderbolt saga comes to a close… or does it? In the third and final installment of their review, Kareem, Ken, and Pat are joined by guest Mayday to dissect Marvel’s most emotionally unstable movie, and, true to form, they take more detours than a multiverse GPS.
Show Notes
This episode of Tangential Giants dives into the MCU’s parenting crisis (seriously, who’s raising these kids?), the surprising power of therapy over explosions, and the narrative spaghetti that is Captain Marvel’s storyline. If you came for a clean review, sorry, the guys are too busy comparing trauma arcs and debating whether punching someone in the soul counts as character development.
What’s inside this cinematic rollercoaster:
- Thunderbolt’s final act: redemption or just vibes?
- MCU parenting: accountability optional
- Mental health vs. physical mayhem: who wins?
- Captain Marvel’s plot: held together by duct tape and hope
- Mayday’s spicy takes and fan theories that might actually make sense
