Cinema Excelsior is an exploration of films based on Marvel Comics. We analyze the good, the bad, and the really, really bad movies that make up the Marvel canon and try to understand what makes each one succeed or fail as adaptation, as production, and as art.

Episodes

Ep. 50 - Logan

A brilliant, touching, fitting end for the X-Men franchise. Oh wait, they kept making them?

Nov 25, 2019•1 hr 58 min

Ep. 42 - Avengers: Age of Ultron

Stop me if you've heard this one before: Tony Stark built a killer robot and things didn't go as planned.

Apr 01, 2018•2 hr 10 min

Holiday Special 1: Howard The Duck (Special Edition)

Yes, that's right! Although we began Cinema Excelsior with a discussion of "Howard the Duck", only two of our five regular panelists were actually a part of that landmark episode. As a holiday present to you, dear listener, we have re-viewed the film and subjected it to a full five-panelist dissection. Have our thoughts changed since our initial viewing four years ago? Listen to find out!

Ep. 39 - The Amazing Spider-Man 2

A priest beat up Valerian, John Adams, and Ray Charles to impress his girlfriend. It doesn't work. We are not Spider-Fans.

Jul 22, 2017•1 hr 52 min

Ep. 36 - The Wolverine

This is for the bear. Step into the Mission to Mars room and go on a journey with everyone's contractually-mandated favorite X-Man as he travels to Tokyo for a good old-fashioned samurai story. Would this have been better as an Ozu-style family drama? You be the judge!

Feb 05, 2017•1 hr 47 min

Ep. 35 - Iron Man 3

Christmas Cheer presented by Shane Black, presented by Cinema Excelsior. Exercise your Iron Patriotism and enjoy!

Dec 19, 2016•1 hr 49 min

Ep. 28 - Iron Man 2

Just fill out of the form below with your solution to the Riddle of Tony's Heart! The standard "Tony / X" format is best. The best answer, as judged by Nick Bestor, will receive a shout-out in a future episode of Cinema Excelsior. If you prefer to submit a Vine or song, send it to @Bestorb on Twitter! So what are you waiting for, True Believers?
