Spider-Man: No Way Home (Spoiler Discussion)
If the start of the pandemic was only a couple of years ago (and without trivializing the impact of its events) then Tom Holland's MCU entry as Spider-Man, in 2016's Captain America: Civil War, seemed just like another lifetime ago.

Daredevil Season 3 (Spoiler Review) Part 1
The gritty despair begins to set yet again in belly of Hell’s Kitchen, NYC. Yes, all… 25 blocks of gentrification, a metaphor for crime and corruption only it’s not metaphor but literal in a Netflix sense. As the third season picks up, what’s to come of Matt Murdock aka Daredevil who continues on his crusade against The Kingpin? As if Dinosaur Dragons and Zombie Ninja weren’t enough.

Ant-Man and The Wasp (Spoiler Review) / Steve Ditko RIP
How would Ant-Man’s best buddy, Luis (Michael Peña) describe this podcast episode in his own words?
“…So there’s like this podcast, its called TBC afp, I mean, afp actually stands for a fanboy podcast. They start off the show by saying: ‘You might not learn anything right… but if you stick around, you just might have some fun’ and I’m like ‘word’ and the co-host and the producer was like ‘word’, Then they start talking stuff about the new Ant-Man and The Wasp movie which is more of follow up to Infinity War because Scott and Hope were a no show but then people disappeared and started turning to a………”

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING REVIEW
Billy Elliot The Musical veteran and babyfaced Brit actor, Tom Holland portrays Peter Parker/ Spider-Man (the third actor in line for the big screen) in an unprecedented partnership between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING. In a star studded cast, HOMECOMING is prelude to Marvel's Cinematic Universe's "Phase 4", ushering in an era expanding more characters and talent into the genre.
And yet, with senses tingling, our TBC Fanboys swing into the chill of the night and deep dive into Marvel's universally recognizable flagship superhero. As it is one of 2017's most highly anticipated movies of the Summer, lesson may stick (pun intended) that "with great summer blockbuster, comes a great tub of popcorn" with obligatory restroom break in the middle of the movie.
