Tales with the Watchers
Do you bleed ink and crave capes? Then TwtW is the podcast for you! Join your hosts, James and Zac, lifelong comic book fans and movie enthusiasts, as they delve into the thrilling world of comic book adaptations.
Each episode, we suit up to:
- Review the latest blockbusters and hidden gems: From spandex-clad superheroes to gritty graphic novel adaptations, we dissect the plot, performances, and visuals with wit and insight.
- Deep dive into comic book lore: We connect the movies back to their source material, exploring character origins, story arcs, and Easter eggs that only true fans will catch.
- Debate the burning questions: Did they stay true to the spirit of the comics? Was the casting spot-on? Did that CGI dragon look a little wonky? We don't shy away from the tough questions, and we encourage listener participation!
- Have a blast! We believe in celebrating the joy of comic book movies, injecting humor, friendly banter, and a touch of healthy fandom rivalry into every episode.
