  • Sabel’s Takeover needs a sequel

    Found this bc I’m listening to another podcast and did a search for Batman & Robin, stumbled randomly on this podcast. My favorite podcast is when they were forced to watch Twilight against their wills. I vote for another Twilight episode!!

    I do have a request though: Sam Rami’s Spider-Man and also should do some episodes based on the unmade sequels and react to those ideas as a bonus gift to us.

  • Great topic!!!

    I found this podcast after deciding I wanted to dig into non-MCU super hero movies! I found over time - a lot of bad and some good. After watching Ghost Rider, I found this podcast. Very fitting it was was episode 1. Now I’m hooked and enjoy this podcast. Look forward to what you guys do in 2022!
