Hey Geek Freaks! We have a jam-packed episode for you, so let’s dive right into the latest from D23, Marvel, Star Wars, and more. I’m Frank, and I’m joined by Thomas as we break down all the major announcements and discuss what has us hyped for the future of geek culture.
Marvel and Star Wars Dominate D23
We kicked off with an in-depth discussion on the biggest Marvel and Star Wars reveals at D23. The excitement was palpable as Thomas and I dissected everything from the new Fantastic Four snippets to the thrilling footage of Daredevil: Born Again. The vibe is set for Fantastic Four, which seems to capture that perfect mix of futuristic 60s with a family dynamic that’s just right. Meanwhile, Daredevil’s return, along with the Punisher and Kingpin, has us speculating on the complex relationships and potential alliances that could emerge.
On the Star Wars front, Skeleton Crew’s trailer hit all the right notes, channeling an Amblin-esque 1980s vibe that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Jude Law as a mysterious force wielder adds intrigue, and the kid-centric storyline could be a great entry point for a new generation of Star Wars fans.
New Interviews and Podcast Network Updates
This week, we also featured a new interview with entertainment lawyer Joshua Lastine. Joshua, who has worked with major studios like Marvel and Lionsgate, provided fascinating insights into the legal side of the entertainment industry. He shared his approach to protecting talent and navigating the ever-evolving trends in Hollywood, making this interview a must-listen for anyone interested in the behind-the-scenes workings of the film and TV industry.
In network news, we have a brand new episode of Who’s Got Next? coming out this Friday. Challenge Accepted will be covering Logan, and of course, we couldn’t resist touching on Deadpool and Wolverine—because who doesn’t love talking about Logan? Plus, Side Quest just dropped a 500-episode Geek Freaks special, where I delve into the history of Geek Freaks—a history that turned out to be more extensive than I initially realized!
Finally, don’t miss our latest podcast, Fandom Portals, led by Aaron Davies. He’s been doing an excellent job, and I had the pleasure of being one of his recent guests.
