Anti Hero Group Therapy Session – A Review of Thunderbolts pt.3

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

Shawarma vs Falafel vs Vaccines – A Review of James Gunn's Superman pt.2 Tangential Giants Podcast

The Tangential Giants are back with Part 2 of their deep dive into James Gunn’s Superman, and this round Kareem, Ken, and Pat have dragged Tim into the fray. He claims he’s here for analysis, but really he’s here for moral support and to witness whatever this movie is doing in its first twenty minutes.The crew breaks down everything from the Lois and Clark argument that feels ripped straight from a couples therapy session to Superman throwing hands with a kaiju before breakfast. They also unpack the emotional rollercoaster of watching Clark repair a Kryptonian VHS love letter from his parents, because apparently Krypton had Blockbuster.Naturally, the tangents spiral.The team debates which Mediterranean dish officially separates MCU fans from DCU loyalists. They explore the hazards of rookie superheroism and why some heroes should probably start with a learner’s permit. Then they wander into a surprisingly scientific discussion about Big Dick Energy and how it occasionally overrides attractiveness, logic, and the known laws of the universe.If you enjoy chaotic analysis, passionate nonsense, and four grown adults arguing about whether Superman should own a Blu‑ray player, this episode is your new comfort food. Grab your gyro or shawarma depending on your cinematic allegiance, and settle in for another heroic descent into tangents.#tangentialgiants #superman #jamesgunn #dcuniverse #dcuniverse #supermanmovie #dccomics #comicbookmovies #nerdpodcast #SuperheroTalk #moviebreakdown #loisandclark #kaijufights #krypton #podcastepisode #geekculture #popculturepodcast #dcfans #SupermanAnalysis #moviediscussions
