  • Shang Chi (2021) REVIEW - Marvel Movie Marathon
    May 26 2025
    • This week on Multiverse Monologues, the Marvel Movie Marathon continues its journey through 2021 with Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. Ben, Ethan, and Micah reconvene to dissect the film that captivated audiences with its fight choreography and the MCU's first Asian-led superhero.
    • Does the film live up to its initial hype? And how does it hold up years later? This episode dives deep into the film and how it resonates four years after its release.
    • So fire up your sling ring, hit the hyperdrive, and join us as we journey to Ta Lo once more.
    • Editors Note - In classic Multiverse Monologue fashion, we forgot to turn the mics on. So we ended up using the camera audio instead. It’s not too bad, but that’s why it sounds a little off. Hopefully it’s not too hard to listen to. So yeah, sorry about that!

  • Black Widow (2021) REVIEW - Marvel Movie Marathon
    May 12 2025
    • This week on Multiverse Monologues, the Marvel Movie Marathon barrels into 2021 with Black Widow. Ben, Ethan, and Micah reunite to dissect the film that kicked off Marvel’s return to the big screen after the pandemic.
    • Was it worth the wait? Did we really need it?
    • From streaming vs. theater debates to hilarious Red Guardian impersonations, lawsuit lore, and nostalgic throwbacks to early Disney+ content (WandaVision, Loki, and Falcon and the Winter Soldier), this episode dives deep into the film’s context, impact, and how it holds up four years later.
    • So fire up your sling ring, hit the hyperdrive, and join us as we infiltrate the Red Room once more.

  • The New Mutants (2020) Review - Marvel Movie Marathon
    Apr 28 2025

    After a break, we’re diving back into our Marvel Movie Marathon, and this time we’re tackling one of the most bizarre entries in the X-Men universe: The New Mutants (2020)!

    Join Ben, Ethan, and Micah as we discuss the troubled production, the surprising cast (hello, Anya Taylor-Joy and Stranger Things’ Charlie Heaton), and whether this film deserved the hate it got—or if it’s a misunderstood gem.
