    It's been 14 years since we've seen any new Indy footage and Jon, Steven and Elliott are all over the 2 minutes Disney released. Does Kingdom of the Crystal Skull still count? Has de-aging finally crossed the uncanny valley? Why are there Nazis in 1969? Plus, a new Guardians of the Galaxy trailer that's very hard to talk about without spoiling the Holiday Special. [EP308]

    14/11/2022 Duración: 57min

    All Jon and Steven want to do is talk about "Wakanda Forever". But losing the voice of Batman and celebrated artist Carlos Pacheco in the same week took precedence. They discuss how "Batman: the Animated Series" did everything right and set the template for four additional series over the next 15 years, how the Arkham video games extended Kevin's take on the Dark Knight for a new generation and how his acting on a Saturday morning cartoon showed more range and subtlety than most Hollywood blockbuster takes on the character. Plus, how Pacheco's art was always a welcome surprise on any Marvel or DC character and yes, some discussion on the second Black Panther movie. [EP305]

  • Caffeinated Comics – What Are We Looking For?

    24/10/2022 Duración: 01h08min

    There's new Star Wars, Star Trek and Marvel content every week. So why are we so upset? Jon and Elliott discuss the rising rage of online criticism, where everything is hyperbole and no examples are given. Plus, the meta swings of She Hulk, the seriousness of Andor, the literacy of The Rings of Power and the unbridled celebration of Nightmare on Chicago Street.  [EP302]

They talk the genius of Wes Craven's original "Nightmare on Elm Street", how Robert Englund's personality differentiated the character from Jason and Michael Myers, and how overexposure watered the horror icon down faster than you remember. Plus, the wild, cheap landscape of 80's syndicated series for everything that wasn't "Star Trek: the Next Generation". [EP300]

  • Caffeinated Comics – Hasbro Pulse Con

    03/10/2022 Duración: 01h17min

    From Marvel Legends to Star Wars to Indiana Jones, Hasbro saves the best announcements for themselves. Jon, Steven and Elliott discuss how much more money action figures will take from them in 2023. Does the Marvel Legends treatment for Indy live up to expectations? Who wants an Avalanche figure?

    13/09/2022 Duración: 01h03min

    Disney focuses most of their announcements on Disney Plus but is the golden age of streaming already over?
