DC Cinematic Universe

DC Studios Multi-Year Plan Announcement and Other News.

And just like that, one half of new head of DC Studios, James Gunn took to social media to announce their road map for the next several years thereby also consolidating its universe for films, TV streaming and comicbooks. No longer will there be differently confusing Batmen and alternate versions of characters under one roof. From non-Henry Cavill Superman to animated Creature Commandos to Authority anti-heros, this primary "phase" has been labeled, Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters. Even for the cynic, many hope we will get fresh solid storytellings enough to rival Kevin Feige's MCU. Let's wait and see.

San Diego Comic Con 2022

Given the events and announcements that took place July 21- 24 2022 at San Diego Comic Con, We of TBC_afp felt obligated to cover some of these biggest stories. From Kevin Feige's brief look into the immediate MCU future or multiverse futures to the DC Cinematic Universes' not so surprising presence, we are going to get into some drooling or not so mouth watering discussions.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League Spoiler Discussion

Second chances or perhaps fluke miracles could be used to describe Zack Snyder’s Justice League, the direct-to-HBO Max’s streaming 4 hour original director’s cut of the flopped 2017 theatrical version, bringing together for the very first time, DC Comic’s superheroes to the big screen. This unexpected opportunity is a clear revelation to both fanboys and critics whether Synder merits creative vindication or not. Join TBC_apf and guests as they deep dive into this released cut. #Apokolipsnow

Hello 2021!

After a hiatus of proportions critical to the American identity, the intrepid crew TBC_afp crawled out of the fallout rubble to bring back nerd normalcy. Inaugurating a new year, though tiptoeing on eggshells due to the still raging global pandemic, we hope in continuing celebration of all things sci-fi, comicbook and geekdom culture. Let’s do this 2021!

Coronavirus Pandemic

Due to recent events of the Covid_19 pandemic, we now live in different times. We of TBC_afp are adapting hoping to put out more content albeit remotely. This current episode was recorded over Zoom on April 23, 2020.

Joker Spoiler Review + Bonus: Star Wars Rise of Skywalker Trailer

Originally not intended as a point of interest for 2019, We of TBC_afp have turned a complete 180 and were completely surprised by Joker, the now blockbuster stand alone directed by Todd Phillips (The Hangover) and starring Joachin Phoenix, with a tour de force portrayal of Gotham’s Clown Prince of Crime. Yet, in review of the film comes with thought provoking conversation a plenty.

SHAZAM! (Spoiler Review)

A famous writer once penned the line “What's in a name? That which we call a rose; By any other name would smell as sweet” in order to evoke the idea that what really counts isn’t just how a thing is labeled. Rather that true heroic significance and character comes from within or that our actions define us. In SHAZAM!, starring Zachary Levi as DC Comic’s sometimes anti-Superman analog and child’s-eye-view superhero commentary (commonly know through the source material as Captain Marvel), WB/ DC Cinematic Universe attempts to deliver at the Box Office again at the wake of Aqua-success, The World's Mightiest Mortal. Follow TBC_afp as they take that leap of faith and call out SHAZAM!

Aquaman (Spoiler Review)

What do you get when you combine Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Splash together ? Hopefully not just an epic food fight at Red Lobster, of course. Nevertheless, The TBC Fanboy Heroes Three (trademark pending) deep dive into  DC Cinematic Universe’s latest continuing underwater saga and closing in on $1 billion box office hit, AQUAMAN.

Batman: Road To Justice Part 4

Riddle me this? What do Morgan Freeman from Lean on Me, Mr. Bates from Downton Abbey and almost eight decades of fictional history have in common? Well, the answer is “Batman”, of course, but that doesn’t mean you ought to be shoving Spaghetti into any (“Bat”) Computer in the name of detective work. 

Join TBC a fanboy podcast & friends for an in-depth round table Bat-discussion exploring the heroics, romanticism & complex character profile of DC Comics’ flagship property. 

What will be revealed? That Batman really does sit home to wash his tights? The truth behind Schumacher’s “nipplegate”? Or that Calendar Man will get his own full featured film? Sit tight, get comfortable with some Bat-milk and cookies (yes, the same ones from Scooby Doo) and tune in for a great Bat-Time.

Aquaman/ Cyborg: Road to Justice Part 3

What’s 6’4”, bearded, has a gnarly eyebrow scar and is married to Lisa Bonet? Only that which capsizes all of our manhoods combined here at TBC a fanboy podcast but prior to casting Jason Momoa in Aquaman, Warner Bros.’ upcoming DC epic, this fish talking King of the Seven Seas has endured a long and complex history. TBC a fanboy podcast deep dives (pun intended) again along “The Road to Justice”, profiling each member of The Justice League as portrayed cinematically on the big screen for the very first time. Additionally in discussion, Victor Stone AKA Cyborg, though traditionally a (Teen) Titan by affiliation, also make his cinematic debut as one of “The Six”. Join our TBC fanboys as they come together covering what may potentially be very exciting properties for the DC Cinematic Universe.
