  • Marvel Studios Echo - Chafa. Bonnie shares the story of the first Choctaw people with Maya via shadow puppetry. Chafa is the leader of the Choctaw People. Special shout out to Sarofsky for a terrific title sequence. They've worked on some of my favourite title sequences like Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, Ant-Man, Avengers: Infinity War, The Gray Man, Community, Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Especially when they re-edited it to include Hitchcock and Scully syncing it seamlessly with the music without making us question if it's any different from the previous sequence.

  • Marvel Studios What if... Strange Supreme intervened? Marvel Studios' title sequence includes all the moments from What If Seasons 1 and 2. I love this so much. It parallels the 616 MCU shots. The Watcher reveals that Peggy saw the good in him, and that's what saved his world and conquered his demons. The Watcher: The multiverse didn't need me to intervene, Peggy. It just needed you. A butterfly flies toward the Watcher and lands on his finger. I remember a similar butterfly that Strange touched when Ancient One sent him into the cosmos. I think this butterfly is Strange.

  • Marvel Studios What if... The Avengers assembled in 1602? It has all the makings of a Shakespearean tragedy. A king marred by loss, a soldier on the run. A world on the brink of oblivion. The Watcher is unable to see the future events when a world is closer to extinction. The Watcher's advice is all pessimistic. What if her actions don't fix anything and do more harm than good, and she gets trapped here forever? What if she dies? Peggy: What if, What if, what if, what if? I have to try. The Watcher: Because you're human. Peggy: Because I'm Captain Carter.

  • Marvel Studios What if... Hela found the Ten Rings? Actually, the name of this episode should have been What if Hela found Ta Lo? One cannot fend off darkness with more darkness, only light. Hela realises that all she wants is freedom. Freedom from Control. Freedom to choose her own path.

  • Marvel Studios What if... Captain Carter fought the Hydra Stomper? A.C Bradley took to Twitter and clarified that since Captain Carter was a woman and she was responsible for ending World War 2, the feminist movement occurred immediately after the war. This had a ripple effect across society, leading to more women Shield agents, heroes and women in positions of authority. Since Peggy wasn't around to be a founder of SHIELD, that responsibility fell on Hank and Janet, Bucky and Howard. All this led to Hope taking the mantle of Wasp earlier. A.C Bradley also mentioned on Twitter that Tony and Bruce will always and forever be Mad Science Bros. Captain Carter's biopic was a musical, sadly not a Broadway play. Not yet.

  • Marvel Studios What if... Iron Man crashed into the Grandmaster? Release the foam. Intergalactic Nascar. Gamora, more like Oscar, The Grouch, Lady Grinch. Tony lived in his father's shadow for a long time, but he is not his father. Gamora also has the chance to choose her own path and not be like her father. You can choose who you want to be. A better version.

  • What if... Happy Hogan saved Christmas? A Night Before Christmas. It's a Yuletide story wherein the Avengers fight a brand-new Superpower. Justin Hammer is the Grinch that steals Christmas from the Avengers. What if Justin Hammer stole Christmas? That would have been a more appropriate title. Sun is getting real low, Pal. Like Super Solstice winter, kind of low. The only difference between a Hero and a Villain is good PR. Redemption in this country is not about penance. It's about rebranding.

  • Marvel Studios What if... Nebula joined the Nova Corp? All quests for redemption begin in darkness. And Nebula's was no different. I'm a fan of Matthew Chauncey's writing. So, it's about redemption and finding the light. Most quests for redemption begin in darkness. But with a little grit, a little faith in yourself, if you keep the path, you can find your way to the light. I think The Watcher's dialogue surmises the intent of this episode.

  • Marvel Studios The Marvels. Is this an Avengers test? Strong theory. How is that even a thing already? You took everything from me. I'm just returning the favour. Oh, Captain, My Captain! These bangles travelled through space and time to find me. I was born for this. Bismillah. Iman Vellani as Kamala is the heart of the film.

  • Marvel Studios Loki - Burdened with Glorious Purpose. In my For All Time Always episode podcast, I said that Loki is a living, breathing example of free will, and what he infuses the Multiversal Yggdrasil Tree with is life and free will. That's why the Yggdrasil tree wall engraving in Captain America: The First Avenger contained the tesseract.

  • Marvel Studios Loki - Science/Fiction. With science, it's all what and how. But with fiction, it's why. So, why do you need to do this? The Zartan Contingent is a fictional Book written by A.D Doug PhD. OB's branched timeline character. It appears in the end credits alongside Ke Huy Quan's name. It's a fiction problem. It's not about where, when, or why. It's about who. TV shows are character driven. Who is driving your story forward.

  • Marvel Studios Loki - Heart of the TVA was mentioned in this season's first episode Ouroboros. The meaning of Ouroboros was explained in Heart of the TVA. That's the loop.

  • Pixar's Inside Out. Just because it's animation doesn't mean the film is only for kids. People of all ages can watch and enjoy this film. To quote Guillermo del Toro, Animation is cinema. I hope in the sequel, they elaborate on the many things they just mentioned in this film. I did spot a A113 reference and a Pizza Planet delivery truck but I didn't speak about it on the podcast.

  • Marvel Studios Loki - 1893. According to Loki, Balder, The Brave at the Norse Gods section of Chicago World's Fair was a crass generalisation and such poverty of imagination. In the Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, the S in the Marvels of Victor Timely's Astounding Temporal Marvels was hidden in the way it was framed. Victor Timely calls Miss Minutes ghostly act Marvelous and yet friend-zones her. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and here Timely wronged two of them.
