Flop Doctors
Marvel Cinematic Universe
Writer/journalist/Marvel Unlimited subscriber John DiLillo joins Clare & Henry for a rigorous survey of Kevin Feige’s favorite child, The Marvel Cinematic Universe. In my best Jeff Probst: 36 movies, 12 streaming series, and only one real acting award nomination! How much homework do I need to do before these movies? Does Robert Downey Jr. have billions in debt? Why is Kelsey Grammer here? These aren’t just things Gwyneth Paltrow will whisper to her assistant at the premiere of Avengers: Doomsday, they’re the questions driving us mad! Common sense may be to pronounce time of death, but the Flop Doctors aren’t ready to give up yet. They and their special counsel form a trio as powerful as Spider-Man, Spider-Man and Spider-Man, working in lockstep to tame this reckless corporate beast. Stay tuned to hear the solutions they’ve engineered, including original pitches for projects, actionable advice for how to make these movies pop, and one very outside-the-box X-men casting. It may be easy to sit back and mourn the good old days of the MCU, but as one of our finest poets once put it: what is grief, if not love persevering?
