The Lost Comic Timing Episode – Batman: Under the Red Hood

Leave a comment

BTTF

GREAT SCOTT!!!

Gather round, as we go back in time to August 18, 2010. Yup, exactly six years ago to the day. Before Avengers was a movie, before The New 52, before Brent was married, and before Ian owned a smartphone. In this never before released episode, Juan de Jesus returns from a long hiatus, which is now even longer, to join Brent and Ian to review the Batman: Under the Red Hood animated movie, followed by some thoughts on Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and why it flopped at the box office. Time flies when you completely forget an episode exists! But this is classic Comic Timing goodness, that’s for sure. Dig in, and reminisce on days gone by.

Brandon, Brent and Ian go movie by movie in chronological order for DC and Marvel, with a little bit of Sony (if it happens) and FOX (please fail Fantastic Four) thrown in for good measure.

What do we expect from movies like Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, Justice League, Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Avengers: Infinity War? Listen in to find out! We also touch on Constantine, The Flash, Arrow, Gotham and Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the last few minutes of the show. And thanks to Comics Alliance for the movie infographic.

Comic Timing Extra Point – Episode 11: Gotham and Constantine

Leave a comment

Time for a timely Extra Point! Ian is joined by Kris as they give a spoiler-filled review of both FOX’s Gotham and NBC’s Constantine pilot. As usual, we go over what worked and what needs improvement, the characters of both series and where they begin their journey, how the fracturing of DC’s television properties could wind up hurting more than helping in the long run, the pain of forcing references to the comics into a show *WINK*, Batman’s dead parents, and how Gotham is a lot more Smallville than it is Arrow. Oh, and Kris has quick rant about Star Wars: Scoundrels, by Timothy Zahn.

Recently, Alan Moore made some controversial statements about the comic book industry as a whole, the way DC Entertainment works as a company, and the potential for Watchmen sequels and why he feels they shouldn’t go forward.
