Captain America (1990)

Episode 18

Thursday, May 20, 2021 • Duration 01:25:25

Send us a text

Captain America is back! To wrap up our Steve Rodgers "trilogy", we're watching the little-known Captain America movie from 1990, a very low budget film made in former Yugoslavia. This movie stars some people you may know but probably don't.

No Keep or Cancel this week because we don't find any of these actors particularly interesting.

Captain America (1990) is available on YouTube for free! Watch it here!

Time Codes:

6:03 - Initial Expectations

7:54 - Plot

1:03:56 - Analysis

Captain America 2: Death Too Soon (1979)

Episode 17

Saturday, May 8, 2021 • Duration 01:19:53

Send us a text

Yield to the shield! It's sequel time on Films from the Phantom Zone. On this episode, Arnaldo and Berto watched the 1979 TV movie sequel, Captain America 2: Death Too Soon (but for some reason not Death 2 Soon). Listen to us review this old cheap thing and decide if it belongs in the Phantom Zone, or watched every Fourth of July!

On Keep or Cancel this week, we're recapping the accomplishments of Sir Christopher Lee, the surprise star villain in this movie.

Captain America 2: Death Too Soon is very difficult to find for rent or stream. It is available on DVD for $6 on Amazon as a combo back with the first film, Captain America. Quite the steal!

Correction: Next week's film: Captain America (1990) is available on YouTube for free. Just search it!

Time Codes:

3:06 - Initial Expectations

4:18 - Plot

Send us a text

It's Films from the Phantom Zone, and we're starting a new thing: Captain America. On this episode, Arnaldo and Berto watched the 1979 TV movie, Captain America and are feeling quite patriotic about it! Yes, this is the one with dork in the motorcycle helmet!

We're skipping Keep or Cancel this week because there's no one famous in this movie.

Captain America is available to rent anywhere. But be warned, the sequel isn't available anywhere other than a $6 DVD on Amazon.

Justice League (2017)

Episode 15

Friday, April 16, 2021 • Duration 02:13:20

Send us a text

Today on Films from the Phantom Zone, we're wrapping up our DC universe talk with the theatrical much maligned Justice League (2017). The infamous Frankenstein's monster was mostly "shadow directed" by Joss Whedon after the tragic exit of Zack Snyder. Listen as we tear this movie apart and get down to how much quick editing and reshot quips you can make before ruining a perfectly good movie.

On this Keep or Cancel, we're talking Zack Snyder and Joss Whedon. Might be obvious which way we go on these.

Justice League (2017) aka Josstice League is available on HBO Max.

Time Codes:

2:23 - Initial Expectations

8:59 - Plot

1:35:45 - Analysis

1:47:32 - Keep or Cancel
