Ant-Man And The Wasp Review, Plus News

The latest Marvel MCU movie is here with Ant-Man And The Wasp. Seth and Crazy Train give a near 60 minute discussion (including SPOILERS) about the film, and where it fits in the Infinity War story. The review begins at about 25:30.

The first part of the show talks news, including the rumor that Keri Russell may be joining the cast of Star Wars Episode IX. What kind of part will she be playing? Somebody is going to be Rey’s parents sooner or later…

In the Marvel world, Kevin Feige has announced that there will be three Marvel MCU movies per year from now on.

It’s one of the reasons we’ve expanded to three films a year, is so that we could do the sequels to films that people have responded to — because we love to make continuing stories with characters people have responded to — but also keep doing the stuff that nobody’s ever heard of, and people go, ‘Why are you doing that?’ That’s fun.

News has also broken that in the next MCU Movie, Captain Marvel, Samuel L Jackson will be digitally de-aged for the entire movie.

All this and more in another fun-filled edition of Geekville Radio!

As an added bonus, Crazy Train made this Outlaw Country Spotify Playlist.

The Future Of Star Wars

Unless you’ve been living on Hoth for the last few weeks, you’ve probably heard about the poor performance of Solo at the box office. Rumors are now running rampant that future Star Wars spin-off movies may be shelved. Seth and Crazy Train look at the rumors and try to separate fact from fiction. Do we know the real story? How many movies does this consist of? And could they be adapted for other media instead? What about the TV show?

Also according to rumors, Kathleen Kennedy’s future at LucasFilm may be in jeopardy. Can we separate rumor from fact?

One of the reasons for the divisiveness in fans has been the depiction of Luke Skywalker. Is this what was planned during The Force Awakens? Or could Rian Johnson have taken a sudden left turn and change everything.

But wait, there’s more Star Wars news! Lando Calrissian himself, Billy Dee Williams, had to cancel an appearance at the Saskatchewan Entertainment Expo citing a filming schedule conflict. Could this add fuel to the speculation that he is Episode IX bound?

In Marvel movie news, Jared Leto has all but confirmed that he will be playing Morbius The Living Vampire in a future spin-off film. Will Spider-Man be part of the story?

Finally, the latest Marvel MCU movie opens this weekend. Get ready with our primer for Ant-Man And The Wasp with spoiler-free anticipation of where this movie fits with Infinity War.

Han Solo And The Future Of Standalones

Seth flies solo (no pun intended) for this special edition of Geekville Radio.

It’s widely known by now that Solo vastly underperformed at the box office, taking in less money domestically than it cost to produce. Regardless of the reasons, rumors have hit that all future standalone Star Wars films are now on hold. What could this mean for the rumored Obi-Wan Kenobi and Boba Fett movies? Or the “Non-Skywalker” movie series by Rian Johnson?

The other major topic is the movie itself. Does it hold up to multiple viewings? Is it worthy of the name Star Wars? Or just a glorified fanfilm?

What did you think of Solo? And what do you think about the potential halt on future standalone Star Wars movies? Sound off below!

Star Wars: What Happened? Arrowverse Season Roundup, E3 Preview

It’s a giant-sized edition of Geekville Radio this week! THREE huge topics!

STAR WARS: WHAT HAPPENED?

Seth and Crazy Train return to talk the disappointing performance of Solo: A Star Wars Story at the box office. What could be to blame for the lackluster reception? Could this be a backlash due to poor audience reception of The Last Jedi? Or merely a result of a saturated market? Or perhaps the recasting of such a beloved character is the reason? Whatever the case, Solo and The Last Jedi have very different Critic vs. Audience ratings.

ARROWVERSE

The middle portion of the show is devoted to the winding down of the current Arrowverse shows on CW. John Constantine has been announced as a regular for Season 4 of Legends Of Tomorrow. On top of that, a new showrunner has been announced in Beth Schwartz. What could we expect in the coming seasons? Are there any new or returning characters on the horizon?

E3 EXPECTATIONS

Finally, E3 is right around the corner. Train and Seth chime in on what they hope to hear from the major game publishers this year.

Have any thoughts on the state of Star Wars, The Arrowverse, or E3? Drop us a line below and let us know what you think! The chances are good that feedback will be read on the air in future episodes!

May The Fourth Be With You

Happy Star Wars Day! This special May 4th editon of Geekville Radio is devoted entirely to Star Wars.

Up first, the news that Alden Ehrenreich looks to be around for a while after this month’s Solo: A Star Wars Story. The actor stated in a recent interview with Esquire that he has signed for three films.

“Three,” he says, then flinches, understanding he may have just created a disturbance in the Force. “I don’t know if that’s officially, uh, public. But—yeah.”

So this would stand to reason that there will be two additional movies with a young Han Solo. Could these be more standalone movies? Or could Han play a role in the upcoming Boba Fett movie? Could we see additional recasting of classic characters?

 

In other Solo news, director Ron Howard stopped by The Star Wars Show and talked about the movie. There will be elements of Westers, Buddy Cop, and Car Chase movies rolled in. He also supplied his trademark voiceover for an Arrested Development take on Star Wars

 

In animated news, LucasFilm announced last week that there will be a new Star Wars animated series titled Resistance, which will premiere this fall on DisneyXD. The main character will be a pilot named Kazuda Xiono, “a young pilot recruited by The Resistance and tasked with a top-secret mission to spy on the growing threat of The First Order”. Oscar Isacc and Gwendoline Christie have already been announced as reprising the roles of Poe Dameron and Captain Phasma respectively.

Do you have any memories or stories about May The 4th? How will YOU be celebrating Star Wars Day?
