This episode of X-Men is just us watching Cable watch an episode of X-Men . Very meta! Cable is in a crummy future and must, for some reason, decide whether to stop it from ever happening. The Legacy Virus makes its animated debut, and we go on an extensive side journey through racial slurs for white people. Plus: news! Although you know you want to hear the list of racial slurs, that's really the selling point of the episode. We shall be back next week! In the meantime, come join us on the Patr...

This week I yell at my cat live on mic! In the spirit of transparency in which I try to operate I left it in, as well as Derek disapproving of how I deal with the cat. Are other Marvel podcasts brave enough to do this? It's a Gambit-centric episode of X-Men , and we don't like Gambit! However, this show is so reliably goofy that we had a great time. Also: I talk about being a sweaty weirdo at the book store, Derek gives COVID updates and we talk about all the news, including the new The Marvels ...

Eh you hoser, it's time to head to the Great White North as this episode tackles more of Wolverine's origin. Alpha Flight shows up, and so do some very sad robots. We also go very, very long on the intro. Very long. Like, skip to 51: 47 if you don't want all kinds of news and views and to hear Derek get upset about using the soundboard. Next week: more X-Men! In the meantime, join the Patreon and vote for which movie we cover next on Watch Men, our monthly superhero deep dive podcast. This month...

Hey, we're back. Remember us? It's been a bit of an unintended break, but we have returned with an episode of X-Men that has no bearing on modern politics at all, one where Russian fascists try to reabsorb old nations from the USSR. Totally unrelatable in 2023. But first we have a lot of BSing to do! 49 solid minutes of it! If you don't want to hear us talking news and nonsense, skip right to 49:25 and be spared the life updates and our thoughts on Kevin Feige staying in his office while Victori...

This podcast has somehow hit 100 episodes, believe it or not, and we celebrated by doing a live chat with listeners on our Discord. Where, you ask, is our Discord? Why it's accessible to all subscribers on the Patreon - even those at the $1 level! - and it's a pretty great place where people hang out and chat and, today at least, share pictures of their cute as hell dogs. We tried to make this as inclusive as possible, but there are bits where we are laughing at and interacting with comments lef...

This week the X-Men are globetrotters, as our storylines take them to Africa, Brazil and Antartica. Morph gets sexy with Wolverine! Rogue throws a boulder at some smoke! Professor X gets snow on his head! Also: we talk about all the comic book movie news, including speculating about where Shang-Chi will show up next, and also I reveal who I heard Steve Yuen is playing in Thunderbolts . Let's see if I'm right! If you don't care about that, skip to 37:09. Next episode is our 100th, and we are goin...

Scott and Jean are married? But are they? Or has the worst happened and they are actually living in sin? Scott will never be the same. This is the episode that introduces Mister Sinister and his, I swear to God, Nasty Boys. It's also the episode that raises the question of what Sinister was doing cruising the park in full costume at night. Al Pacino, is that you? We also catch up on our lives, including the crazy weather that's been happening. There's news as well - we hear about the round brown...

Scott and Jean get married, and Wolverine is not too happy about it. Also not happy: Morph, who it turns out did not die in series pilot but has been hanging around in the same pair of clothes ever since. All of this happens as anti-mutant hysteria reaches critical levels, and Beast is starting to wonder if he should have stayed in jail. In the intro we do lots of news, including The Flash trailer, whether or not there's a Young Avengers project coming to the MCU and reports that, despite the tr...

After many weeks away we return to X-Men: The Animated Series , and it’s the season one finale. It’s a big one - how big? So big that Professor X does a suicide bombing mission in a plane full of clearly marked TNT. It’s wild. Before that we have a very lengthy news segment. We talk about Marvel’s Midnight Suns , a new Marvel superheroes video game that we both love and that is much weirder than you think it might be. We talk about how It’s ok for ant-man to go big after two movies of smaller, l...

We are back! If you don't subscribe to the Patreon ( www.patreon.com/cinemasangha ) you won't know why this show was dark for two weeks. The short answer is that I had a serious family health crisis. The long answer you'll get in the opening minutes of this show. But we are back... without X-Men: The Animated Series . Instead we are dropping an episode talking about the big DCU announcement James Gunn made this week, revealing the early part of his slate for the future of DC movies. And we're ex...

This week we mourn the ways the world has changed, making Quik and Twinkies worse than ever before. We talk about MIdnight Sons , which is essentially an Avengers friendship simulator, and we discuss why it's cool that Ant-Man gets to go from being a between phases palate cleanser to being the big kick-off of Phase Five. And there's some really astonishing trivia this week as well. Don't care about that? Skip to 36:16 and listen to us talk about the second part of the animated Days of Future Pas...

The animated series tackles one of the most famous X-Men stories of all, a story that has inspired countless imitators and even a movie - Days of Future Past! But they meld the story with another time traveling plot, introducing face-tattooed Bishop to the gang. This week we talk about the news out there in comic book movie land, including the latest scuttlebutt about Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and.... how people are mad about the runtime of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania ? Yes, how people are...

A quick note: we recorded this episode before it was revealed that Jeremy Renner had been in a serious accident, which is why we make no mention of it. Our thoughts are with him and his family. This week on MarvelVision we cover the 10th episode of X-Men: The Animated Series , which introduces the Four Horsemen and also a guy who has a Chia Pet growing on his head or something. Hard to know with this show. We also cover some news, including the latest James Gunn stuff, and I am deeply impressed ...

Here's a special holiday treat for you - a free episode of one of our other podcasts, The Bad Batch! That show is about Star Wars TV shows, but this episode is a special one: I went to Disneyland's Galaxy's Edge and these are my thoughts about the experience. What was supposed to be a very quick 15 minute podcast got much bigger much faster, but that's just because I was excited about the whole thing. This is not what a regular episode of The Bad Batch is like, but if you want to hear us talk ab...

Enter... Apokolips! In all his clown make-up glory. This week's episode gets us a Rogue origin, the introduction of even more mutants, the anti-climactic resolution of the mystery of Professor X's disappearance and Cable doing a big scare from behind both a book shelf and a door. Also this week: Devin went to the Avengers Campus at Disneyland and he talks about the experience! Also this week: a surprise discussion of Yellowstone , one of the wildest shows on TV. Thanks for listening! We will be ...

This one is a little late - sorry! Lot going on here at the moment, but that's not a great excuse. At any rate! This week's episode we cover more breaking comic book world news (there's a lot of it all the time these days) and we watch a very strange episode where the X-Men are and are not familiar with the Juggernaut, his history, his powers and how to defeat him. PlusL Colossus shows up to ruminate on how weird Americans are. Thanks for your patience and we will see you again next week (on the...

Half the X-Men are in serious trouble and the other half of the X-Men are trying to make long distance phone calls! This week the Genosha two-parter concludes as Gambit betrays all of his friends and we get a veritable cornucopia of cameos from the likes of Sunfire, the Blob, Domino and more. On the other side of things: we have some Marvel and DC movie and TV news, including new Loki season two tidbits, some new Flash stuff and I reveal what character Marvel is looking to bring in for Avengers:...

It's the most wonderful time of the year - when we get a new Marvel Studios Special Presentation. This time it's The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special , a delightful and charming and funny and sweet show that puts the "Christ! What were you thinking!" back into Christmas. This week we wax rhapsodic about James Gunn, I reveal what made me cry in the special, and we discuss the man-in-suit qualities of Swole Groot and also what wonderful toddlers Drax and Mantis are. We also do a bunch of ne...

This episode Wolverine and Sabertooth duke it out in the Arctic while making the lives of a bunch of Inuit absolutely miserable. Meanwhile, Gambit, Storm and Jubilee go on vacation to the island nation of Genosha and Gambit doesn't take off his jacket one time. Before all of that we talk news and other junk, including the latest box office, the shocking return of Bob Iger to Disney and how Black Adam has gone from the disruptor of power in the DC Universe to, according to the Rock, a baby that n...

Gotta let you know up front that there is a character in this episode of X-Men who has a fairly racist name. The 20th century was just kinda like that sometimes. It's not even a particularly good episode! It semi-adapts a great storyline from the comics featuring the Morlocks (many of whom were later brutally slain) but it doesn't have the bonkers je ne sais quoi of the first few eps of the series. That said, this episode is a gold mine of moments that have become modern memes, including the mos...

This week the X-Men once again prove they are absolutely not ready to take on an enemy like Magneto as they repeat the exact same tactical errors they made last episode - but also add on a couple of new ones for good measure. It's an all-trauma ep as we go into the minds of Sabertooth, Storm and Magneto and see what PTSD haunts their broken minds. Also: Derek laughs so hard one of his contact lenses pops out. In the intro we have actually a lot of news, including Black Adam 's less-than-epic box...

Why are they milking Sabertooth? This is just one of the questions we tackle on this week's episode of X-Men: The Animated Series . Magneto, the most famous X villain, is introduced, and quite wisely the people involved in this Saturday morning cartoon show decided to decouple his origin from the Holocaust. Also: a lot of great scenes of Wolverine being a total pain in the ass. In the intro we discuss Marvel Snap, the new phone game to which we are both addicted. Also: news, trivia and the revel...

We come to you with an emergency episode to talk about the big news: James Gunn is taking over the DCEU! What does this mean for DC? What does it mean for Supergirl and the Black Superman movie? And, in an incredible bit of timing, the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special trailer dropped. We have all that and more in this special episode!

We are between new MCU TV shows, and that means we have to turn our attention to something a little bit older to fill the time. With the upcoming release of X-Men '97 , a sequel to the X-Men: The Animated Series from the 90s, we figured that The Animated Series made a lot of sense for our off-season watch. Every week we'll do a new episode of the animated series, taking a break when a new MCU show comes on and then returning to the world of the X-Men when that show ends. So it makes sense to sta...

It's the season finale, and She-Hulk doesn't just break the fourth wall, she fully obliterates it. But does it work? This becomes the bone of contention between your two humble hosts who argue very heavily about that question for like the last 40 minutes of the episode. You've been warned. We will return next week with our next Marvel TV show: X-Men: The Animated Series . Yup, in anticipation of next year's X-Men '97 we will be rewatching the 90s X-Men cartoon. It's going to be the show we watch...

No, you're not seeing things - Marvelvision is really back with another episode! We're dropping this special ep to talk about the Marvel Special Presentation of Werewolf by Night , a Halloween-y hour long black and white monster mash that introduces the titular Werewolf by Night and the Man-Thing, as well as Elsa Bloodstone. But is it any good? Does it hit the marks it is setting for itself? Therein lies the meat of the episode, which you can find after all the news and general buffoonery at 17:...

The wait is finally over and The Man Without Fear has fully returned to the MCU (after a cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home , of course). Was it worth the wait? Hell yes, and this might end up being the very best episode of She-Hulk thanks to this appearance. In fact, this episode might represent the whole thing coming together as it represents the platonic ideal of what this show can be. Before that: some news and BS, including what is frankly a story so gross I should not have told it on this po...

Still no Daredevil, and we have to admit we like the show's moxie in holding him back this long. Speaking of holding things back, we have a pretty long intro and news segment this week, wherein I drop some new info about the return of Henry Cavill to the DCEU, including the fact that WB is now developing a new Superman movie for him. If you don't care about that, skip to 35:49 to get to the latest episode of She-Hulk , wherein Emil Blonsky returns and he has a whole retinue of D-list Marvel vill...

This week Jen Walters meets her greatest challenge yet: being a bridesmaid at the wedding of an old friend she has largely lost touch with. She-Hulk stops for a (kinda) one-shot episode featuring a B-story starring niche Marvel character Mr. Immortal. Before all that Derek tells the tale of why this episode is late - he was locked out of his house! The whole saga is recounted here, as well as some news including info about the next mutant in the MCU, early reactions to Werewolf by Night and more...

Extreme David Bowie voice: Fashion! This week on She-Hulk we get a glimpse inside the world of the MCU's version of Edna from The Incredibles , Luke, a designer who does all the best superhero costumes. While Nikki and Our Beloved Pug find out how to get Jen an appointment with him, She-Hulk tussles with Titania in a court of law. All this plus news and observations about the cost of pizza, but if you don't want to hear that stuff skip right to 25:28! See you again next week, and as always, than...
