What a ride! THANK YOU guys for 4 amazing years, 192+ episodes, and 40,000 listens.

The only fitting way we saw to wrap this thing up was with Spider-Man: No Way Home.

It's equal parts conclusion, new start, and all the nostalgia you could possibly cram into one place. We love you 3,000 and we can't wait to introduce you to Beer Me A Movie!

Early on in the podcast, we made the mistake of dedicating an entire month to Batman movies. All that sweet sweet content was immediately used up.

Luckily for us, good ol' Vengeance makes so much box office money, that there's always a new one being made.

So for our PENULTIMATE episode, we’re talking about The Batman!

This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with DC Comics or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

This week in the Fortress of Poditude, we're talking about a movie that has come up a SURPRISING amount on the podcast: Twilight Zone The Movie.

The four stories pulled right from the classic TV show and filmed by four very famous directors aren't even the biggest news here. Not after all the decapitation, anyway.

Sidenote: As much as it may seem we’re bending the rules here, Twilight Zone comic books are, in fact, a thing.

Every week we wonder if Marvel can keep outdoing the previous episode, and they keep on delivering.

In this week's WandaVision, we finally get confirmation on some things we had suspected ALL ALONG. But the reveal raises so many other questions. Tune in!

*WandaVision © 2021 Marvel Entertainment LLC. WandaVision® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Marvel Entertainment LLC. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Marvel Entertainment LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

Ollo! This week we're talking about the star-studded animated superhero (or is it supervillain?) film Megamind.

On its surface, it's a wacky romp through a series of superhero movie tropes, but it actually raises some serious questions about the very core of the genre.

Things are ramping up in Westview. Join us as we celebrate Halloween with the Maximoff/Vision family in this week's 90s WandaVision holiday special!

Come for the heavy-handed Mephisto hints. Stay for our Jimmy Woo FBI Witness Protection theories.

We talk about a lot of comic book movies (It's kind of our thing) but we've never talked about a movie pulls off the comic book aesthetic quite like Warren Beatty's Dick Tracy.

Starring Beatty, Pacino, and Madonna, this might be the most underrated movie in the entire genre.

WandaVision is back this week with so many surprises.

It's difficult to put into non-spoilery words just how much this week's episode blew our collective minds. So tune in to our very-spoilery episode to hear our thoughts.

*WandaVision © 2021 Marvel Entertainment LLC. WandaVision® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Marvel Entertainment LLC. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Marvel Entertainment LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

This week, the ghost of Roger Ebert makes his much-anticipated first pick of 2021.

He's got us talking about Martin Campbell's 1998 swashbuckling vigilante adventure: The Mask of Zorro. So, you know, cut some Z's into a wall or something and then listen in.

*The Mask of Zorro © 1998 Global Entertainment Productions GmbH & Co.

And even if Zorro is in the Public Domain, we’re still not claiming any affiliation. Please don’t sue us, Gertz family.

Another week, another episode of WandaVision!

This week we got a peek at what's been happening outside West View and a little explanation about the strange events inside. But for as many questions as this episode answered, it posed so many more.

*WandaVision © 2021 Marvel Entertainment LLC. WandaVision® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Marvel Entertainment LLC. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Marvel Entertainment LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

We've officially returned from our January superhero hiatus and are getting back into the SWING of things.

We are back in the MCU with the third incarnation of Spider-Man (now played by Tom Holland) in the Jon Watts-directed Spider-Man: Homecoming.

In a literal case of "same pod time, same pod streaming service" we're back to cover more WandaVision!

Episode 3 brought us so much. There was 70s hair. There was color. There were plot developments. So now there are theories! Listen now for our take on where this might be headed.

*WandaVision © 2021 Marvel Entertainment LLC. WandaVision® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Marvel Entertainment LLC. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Marvel Entertainment LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

It's still Edgar Wright month here in the Fortress of Poditude and we've finished the Cornetto Trilogy, so the next logical step is to talk about the post-modern musical that is Baby Driver.

This movie has everything: an incredible soundtrack, insane action sequences, and a Jon Hamm masterclass in range.

*Baby Driver © 2017 TriStar Pictures, Inc. and MRC II Distribution Company L.P Baby Driver ® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Working Title Film, Ltd. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Working Title Film, Ltd. or any of their subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

After a very long time remote, Dave and Bryan are reunited in the Fortress of Poditude for a very special in-person episode. We're finally finishing the Lord of the Rings trilogy, once and for all, with The Return of the King.

In the true spirit of Peter Jackson, it's our longest episode since the last time we talked LOTR.

Drink every time Bryan mispronounces something! (But don't actually, if you value your liver function)

*The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King © 2003 New Line Home Entertainment, Inc. Lord of the Rings® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Middle-earth Enterprises.

It's finally here! Feige and company return for Phase 4 of the MCU with the Disney+ exclusive series WandaVision.

So we here in the Fortress of Poditude are officially talking about a TV show for the very first time. Listen in as we briefly recap the first two episodes and give our initial impression on that sweet sweet new content.

*WandaVision © 2021 Marvel Entertainment LLC. WandaVision® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Marvel Entertainment LLC. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Marvel Entertainment LLC or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

We’ve had a rule in the Fortress of Poditude since episode 7: when a character orders a drink, we drink with them.

See how that works out for us this week with the epic bar crawl that is Edgar Wright’s The World’s End, the final movie of the Cornetto Trilogy.

*The World's End © 2013 Universal Studios. The World's End ® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Working Title Film, Ltd. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Working Title Film, Ltd. or Universal Pictures, or any of the subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors thereof.

We're continuing on our Edgar Wright month-long journey with the second installment of the Cornetto Trilogy: Hot Fuzz.

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are back, joined by a perfectly slimy Timothy Dalton for this hysterical homage to buddy cop action flicks.

Listen now. It's for the greater good. (The greater good)

*Hot Fuzz © 2007 Universal Studios. Hot Fuzz® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Working Title Film, Ltd.

We want to kick off 2021 the WRIGHT way (trust me, this is not the last you'll be hearing this terrible pun). And we're doing it by taking our annual Superhero Hiatus and celebrating the works of Edgar Wright all month long.

We're kicking it all off with the first movie of the Cornetto Trilogy: Shaun of the Dead.

*Shaun of the Dead © 2004 Focus Pictures/Universal Studios. Shaun of the Dead® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Working Title Film, Ltd.

As if to reward us for making it through 2020, listener Michael Carlstrom reminded us that Flash Gordon is currently celebrating its 40th Anniversary.

So we managed to squeak in this colorful and campy 80s sci-fi romp through space (with a Queen soundtrack!) right before the end of this nightmare year.

And it's exactly what we needed.

Put that cookie down! ...and join us for a Caped Podcasters Christmas Special!

'Tis the season for Arnold Schwarzenegger & Sinbad. We're talking about the 1996 last-minute shopping adventure that is: Jingle All The Way.

Turboman is a superhero, so it totally counts.

We're "celebrating" 100 episodes since we discussed Kick-Ass by begrudgingly covering the sequel that nobody asked for, directed by a guy nobody's heard of.

It's Kick-Ass 2 and it's even... Kick-Assier? We did this to ourselves. Merry ChrisMintz.

No, it's not déjà vu.

We covered Shazam! back before its theatrical release in a very non-spoilery episode (Ep. #21).

Now that the world has had time to see it, we're doing it the proper way: in our first ever re-visit of a movie we've already talked about.

*Shazam! © 2019 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. Shazam!® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of DC Comics. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with DC Comics or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

The G-Men weren't the only guys to escape from Hell.

This week in the Fortress of Poditude, we're talking about Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy! The good one with Ron Perlman, not that David Harbour nonsense from last year...

...we'll get there.

*Hellboy © 2004 Revolution Studios/Sony Pictures. Hellboy® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Dark Horse Comics. This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Dark Horse Comics or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

If you're a fan of films where crooked FBI agents escape Hell and try to do good deeds to not go back, boy are you in luck this week.

Throw in a pink robot, a hand puppet, and Gary Busey, and you have Christopher Coppola's G-Men From Hell.

It's... a movie.

This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Dark Horse Comics or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

Last week, we did a love story. So it only makes sense that we're doing a break up story this week. We're talking about Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) and that title alone brings us to the character limit.

We also talk about the McRib for a lot longer than you'd expect.

This week, we brought back an old friend to help us out.

Nick (of "Episode 22 - Howard the Duck" fame) finally returns to the Fortress of Poditude for Richie Rich, the 1994 movie that finally made people say "Okay, I think that's enough Macaulay Culkin for a while."

*Richie Rich © 1994 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. Richie Rich® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Classic Media, LLC.

We're not ready to let go of Halloween just yet.

It's hard to let go of anything when one of your hands is a chainsaw.

So we enlisted the help of The Ginger Skull to talk about Sam Raimi's Army of Darkness starring Bruce Campbell. What more could you possibly want?

The Caped Podcasters have been dead the whole time! What a twist!

Spooky season is upon us and we're getting in the spirit with a little M. Night Shyamalan jawn (that's Philly for "literally any noun"). We're talking about Split, starring James McAvoy, James McAvoy, and James McAvoy.

This production is not sponsored, endorsed by or affiliated with Blinding Edge Pictures or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies and/or third party licensors.

Shhh! This week in the Fortress of Poditude, we're talking about spies!

The kind of super secret spies that put the name of their organization right on the front window of their hideout.

You know, like the ones in Matthew Vaughn's Kingsman: The Secret Service.

Suit up, slap on your Ray Bans, and click that link. Because we make this sound good.

Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Tyler from TADPOG!

He's joining us to talk about a doozy of a film: Superman III. AKA "the one with Richard Pryor." Tune in to see why this is considered the Superman movie that went off the rails.

It's Bryan's birthday! You know what that means? It's Morphin' time!

The boys from Nerdy Thursday join us in the Fortress of Poditude to celebrate & to talk about the 1997 classic: Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. They clearly didn't learn their lesson last year.

*Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie © 1997 Saban International N.V. and Saban Entertainment, Inc. Power Rangers® and its associated titles, logos, and characters are registered trademarks of Hasbro, Inc.

Big news from the Fortress of Poditude! DAVE LIKES AN X-MEN MOVIE. That's right. We're not burying the lead on this one. We're covering X-Men: First Class this week, the prequel/reboot... the preboot of the X-Men franchise.

Listen to find out what makes this one different for Dave.

This week in the Fortress of Poditude, we have the rare opportunity to talk about a proper love story: Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

Are we talking about the love between a man and his ex-fiancée? The love between two dangerous criminals? The love between a man and his alien symbiote? Or perhaps just the love between two podcast hosts and a Woody Harrelson?

Tune in to find out.

We tend to stick to release order for the MCU but it felt appropriate this week to jump to Ryan Coogler's Black Panther early to honor Chadwick Boseman after his tragic passing last week.

We discuss just how good this movie is, how important it is, and how much it hits different now that he's gone.

What's that? A NEW movie? In 2020? That's right! We're joined this week by the #1 Sidekick Superfan Steven to talk about Netflix's new original movie: Project Power. Directed by the Catfish guys, and starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, this movie should quench your thirst for a new super-story.

The gang's all here and working together. That is, unless you consider Zack Snyder and Joss Whedon part of the gang. Because they're very much not working together on this one. We're talking about Justice League this week.

Dave has defended every DCEU movie so far. Can he keep the streak alive?

Hurricane Isaias knocked out the electricity in the Fortress of Poditude this week. But much like Spidey, we didn't let that stop us. We're in the dark, talking about Mark Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2. AKA the one that established an irrelevant universe and turned Jamie Foxx blue.

Welcome back to 1985! No, this isn't a rehash of Not-So-Super January. We're talking about John Hughes' Weird Science, which yes, is loosely based on a comic book. We promise.

You're gonna want to shower after this one.

By now it's no secret that Dave particularly dislikes the X-Men, and this week's movie is widely regarded as the weakest of the franchise. We're talking X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the movie that made fanboys just... so so angry.

How weird would it be if Dave liked it? Guess you'll have to listen and find out.

The Ginger Skull requested to be a guest on an Ebert episode. So we gave him what he wanted. And Ebert immediately punished him for his hubris. This week, we're talking about 1997's Spawn. Yes, Spawn. Boy, oh boy.

Shaun has brought this movie up a couple times whilst appearing on the podcast, so we brought him in to defend it. He chose not to.

For the final pick of our month-long celebration, the ghost of Roger Ebert did something unexpected and chose a not-so-super movie. We're talking about A History of Violence, the 2005 David Cronenberg film starring Viggo Mortensen and based on a Vertigo comic.
