Why, hello there! The first (and only?) season of Disney's 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' series has concluded so it's time for Ian Kerner and I to look back at all 6 episodes and break them down! What parts of the the expanded, post-Prequel story worked? And what parts did we wish we could bullseye out of history history like a womprat in Beggar's Canyon? Did Ewan McGregor bring the gravitas that carried the series or did it suffer whenever he wasn't on screen? And what about Hayden Christensen's return to the Star Wars universe? And how did new characters like Reva Sevander, Haja, Roken and Tala Durith? There's a lot to discuss so May the Force Be With Us as we navigate through each episode with you!

The Geekscape 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness' Special! This weekend's 'Doctor Strange' In The Multiverse Of Madness' brought both Marvel cinematic goodness, tons of MCU surprises and multiversal insanity! But did Sam Raimi's return to Marvel superhero movies prove that all realities are equal? Ian Kerner and I dive deep into the multiscape to talk about it! What went right in the multiverse? Did anything seem out of place for the characters of Doctor Strange, America Chavez and Wanda Maximoff? Both on the screen and on the comic book page? Which of the big surprises in the film do we expect for Marvel to stick with going forward? And which of them are just another reality that gets erased from the MCU? Where will we see these characters again? Including those surprise ones? What does this film mean for a Doctor Strange 3? How about a follow up to Disney+'s successful 'Wanda/Vision' or the upcoming Agatha Harkness series? There is a LOT to talk about with this one so hop over from whatever realit

The Geekscape 'Moon Knight' Season One Special! Before you get lost in this weekend's Multiverse of Madness, we still have to talk about Marvel's street level hero who just finished his premiere season on Disney+: 'Moon Knight'! The Oscar Isaac starrer brought us one of the less well known Marvel characters for casual fans and also one of the most complicated, so Ian and I are here to help guide you through all six episodes like Taweret leading you through the Afterlife! Who are the multiple personalities of Marc Spector? What was up with all of the jumping around in the story? How does the Egyptian pantheon fit in with the Asgardians from Thor? How faithful was this version of Moon Knight to the comic book versions? Will we see Moon Knight or Steven Grant or Layla again? Would it be in a 'Moon Knight' Season 2?

The Geekscape 'Morbius' Special! Finally! The arrival of the latest "Marvel Legend" and newest Geekscape Special! Of course I'm talking about Sony's 'Morbius', starring Jared Leto! That's right! Ian Kerner and I brave the depths of Sony's newest entry in their Spider-Man-less Spiderverse to talk about what worked, what didn't and where things go from here... if at all. Is the film as bad as critics say? How does it stack up with the MCU films? Or even Sony's 'Venom' movies? Is Sony really building up to a Sinister Six film? Would they do it without Spider-Man? Honestly, what is even happening? How did we get a 'Morbius' stand alone movie? At least Tyrese is in it! And Matt Smith! Subscribe to Geekscape on Apple Podcasts!

Film producer Michael Uslan grew up dreaming of seeing a serious, darker version of Batman on film. He accomplished that goal in 1989 with Tim Burton and Michael Keaton's 'Batman'. Now, over 30 years later, he's been a part of every iteration of The Dark Knight on screen from Christopher Nolan's trilogy to Joel Schumacher's campy run to the Oscar winning 'Joker' and this weekend's 'The Batman'! We talk about the differences in all of the iterations, celebrate pulp heroes like The Shadow, Green Hornet and the Lone Ranger, meeting Batman creators Bill Finger and Bob Kane as a kid, the inherent differences between Marvel and DC, trying to make a 'The Shadow' film with Sam Raimi, his new book 'The Batman's Batman' and a whole lot more! It's two hours of comic book and movie nerding out on a special Geekscape! Subscribe to Geekscape on Apple Podcasts! Follow Jonathan on Twitter and Instagram!

The Geekscape 'The Batman' Special! Finally! The grittiest and realist Batman you've ever seen has hit theaters, starring Robert Pattinson and directed by Matthew Reeves! So obviously that means it's time for Jonathan and Ian to give it the Geekscape Special treatment! So is this punishing take on the Caped Crusader the masterpiece people say it is? How was Paul Dano's Riddler? Zoe Kravitz' Catwoman? Colin Farrell's Penguin? And what other comic book characters and plot lines were inspirations for the film? How different is The Batman from earlier iterations of the character? What works and where might the Batmobile need to do some course correction for future installments? What can we expect to see in the next Batman film? And could The Batman tie in to the bigger DC Universe? It's going to be a lot of detective work on this brand new Geekscape!

How do you adapt a graphic novel to the film screen? Well, let us tell you about it! Starring 'Mad Men's Vincent Kartheiser, the indie film 'Ultrasound' is the story of Glen and Cyndi who, after a strange sexual encounter, become unwitting test-subjects in a mind control experiment. Their own memories become tools for manipulation as they search for answers. 'Ultrasound' director Rob Schroeder and writer Conor Stechschulte are my guests on this week's Geekscape to talk about adapting Conor's graphic novel series 'Generous Bosom' into the film, finishing the indie project during the pandemic and how the project got started!
