Well, after a long break we're back. There are lots of reasons for the delay ... the biggest one being we didn't want to release this because it reveals we watched Garfield (2004) starring Breckin Meyer, JLH and Bill Murray as the voice of Garfield (which he recorded on a boat).There's not much else to say except go check out Owen at the Comedy Fes…

Sam Raimi's SPIDER-MAN (2002) is a really important watershed moment for modern superhero movies, so you would be forgiven for thinking it's really good. It's not *bad*, but it certainly feels very different to what we now think of as common comic book movies. Starring Tobey Maguire as the world's oldest teenager Peter Parker, along with Kirsten Du…

Remember the 90s? They were great. So grungy, so free from modern corporate franchise culture. If TANK GIRL (1995) had been made today... wait, no it wouldn't be made today. It's the first female comic book hero movie - directed by a woman (!) - (Rachel Talalay) - and involves:1. A Cole Porter musical number2. Beat poet kangeroos3. A pre-fame Naomi…

Imagine Heaven and Hell made a wager for our souls... Or don't imagine because that's what happens in this movie - CONSTANTINE (2005) directed by Francis Lawrence.This was Owen's pick, and the gang had a great time discussing this movie because, even though it's not a great adaptation of the Alan Moore, it's still a pretty fun movie with some cool …

Look. We've talked about some bad movies, and this is no exception: X-Men Origin: Wolverine (2009) directed by Oscar winner Gavin Hood. Yep, the director of this movie has an Oscar.Wanna know what happens when a comic book movie thinks it's an 80s action movie? Enjoy! Strangely, Stef didn't *hate* this one, but the guys did. Follow us on Twitter: @…

What did the gang think? Take a listen and find out! In addition to their opinion on the movie, Owen, Stef and Kyle discuss the state of the DC cinematic universe as c…

COWABUNGA DUDES! TUBULAR! OTHER WEIRD 90s WORDS!! That's right, we've gone back into our 80s-90s childhoods to rediscover 1990's TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES - for many Gen Ys and Millennials, it was the franchise that started all franchises.This movie...isn't that great, but it does provide Owen and Stef a chance to be nostalgic about their Saturd…

Recorded on Sunday 17th April 2016, Stef and Owen roamed around Supanova talking to fans and cosplayers about their favourite comic book movies. We also caught up with writer and cosplayer Clem Bastow about what she thought ab…

PLEASE NOTE: The audio quality on this ep is a little sub-optimal, we were using new equipment. Our sincere apologies - we are working on it never happening again.In this ep things get a bit silly for no reason, which is probably not such a good thing considering Bryan Singer's X-MEN (2000) has one of the most serious and heavy opening scenes in CB…

We here at TCA love conspiracy theories - the wackier the better - so don't be surprised when this week's ep about Guillermo del Toro's labor of love HELLBOY (2004) tangents into talk about David Icke, Rasputin, cockatiels and all manner of weird stuff. It's that kind of comic, and that kind of movie. It's a fun movie, not flawless, bit with plenty…

Huge ep! Zack Snyder's WATCHMEN (2009) is a significant comic book adaptation because Alan Moore's original graphic novel was so significant to the history of comic books. Once called un-adaptable, WATCHMEN manages to not be a complete disaster, but is still far from a great movie. It also contains perhaps the worst sex scene of all time, which we …

Brace yourselves for this one: The gang has tackled the 2015 disaster adaptation of Marvel's first family the FANTASTIC FOUR. This is a Stef-heavy episode, because she has had a mild obsession with this Fantasicar crash of a movie for the past 6 months, and the guys really had no chance to bring her back from the brink of Josh Trank's career death …

It's the movie that sparked a movement of comic book movies... the gritty reboot! Christopher Nolan made superheros cool and something not just nerds liked with BATMAN BEGINS (2005). In this ep the gang talks about the context of this movie, it's strength as an origin story, the significance of the Nolan Batman trilogy, and how it still holds up. F…

When you watch Marvel cinematic universe movies, do you think "Man, these are good, but would be even better with THE HOFF instead of Sam Jackson" ??? Well if so, then this movie is for you! In reality, NICK FURY: AGENT OF SHIELD (1998) is for nobody. It's a bad, B-grade TV movie, and Owen and Stef may never forgive Kyle for this. Don't watch it, b…

This episode starts with a rant about X-Men 3 - don't worry, it makes sense. The gang has many complex emotions about SUPERMAN RETURNS (2006), Bryan Singer's 'soft sequel' to the Richard Donner Superman movies. This movie is like HULK in that it's considered a 'failure' but it's not a terrible movie. That said, there is a lot of "wig horror" and th…

Owen, Stef and Kyle decided that they should get in touch with the zeitgeist and talk about JESSICA JONES (2015), which isn't a movie (shhh!) but is most definitely based on a comic book. In this ep we discuss the themes of the show, what a cool villain Kilgrave is, and speculate on some upcoming Marvel series. Stef also calls David Tennant "Doctor…

This week the gang talks about BLADE (1998) and it raises many important questions, like: Where does Deacon Frost live? How can vampires have babies? Who is responsible for vampire nightclub OHS? What is the appropriate reaction time if a charred vampire attacks your ex boyfriend in front of you? All this and more in the second ep from Kyle, Owen a…
