Hello and welcome back, to what is a HUGE episode for the podcast. Not only have we managed to release consecutive episodes, but we have a new sound! That's right, we've upgraded out equipment and are now even clearer in our pop culture ramblings!
Our topic this week is all about blockbusters, and we ask what it takes to make a good one. We've got examples from across the decades, along with some of our own observations and preferences.
And it doesn't end there, our brand new news segment had been given a major boost this week thanks to an avalanche of breaking stories that we couldn't wait to bring to your ears.
Thank you so much for listening and, as always, if you'd like more from us, you can find us on instagram @marvelouscinemapodcast (https://www.instagram.com/marvelouscinemapodcast/).

The MCP - What Makes A Good Blockbuster? w/ big news week and new sound!

Hi everyone, we're back with another episode. I do have to apologise, this week's episode is slightly marred by an unfortunate audio issue but we have decided to put it out anyway since we only realised after we'd recorded the whole thing. We'd rather put it out there, with it being some content rather than nothing. Next week we hope to have the issue fixed however.
The main topic for the episode, is a part 1 of a BIG discussion on the legendary Doctor Who! With both of us being such huge fans of the show, and having grown up watching it, it's something that really is close to our hearts. This part one covers the entirety of Russell T Davies' initial run, when the show was revived in the mid 2000s.
We hope that you were still able to enjoy the show, and we thank you for your support. If you'd like more from us, you can find us on Instagram @marvelouscinemapodcast. Have a lovely day.

The MCP - Doctor Who Discussion Part 1 (Audio Issue)

Hello! And welcome back to the Marvelous Cinema Podcast! We're back and carrying on with out in-depth discussion on Doctor Who, picking up at the start of Steven Moffat's tenure as showrunner and going until he and Peter Capaldi bowed out in 2017. We've certainly got a lot to talk about and there'll be more than a few hot takes involved in this one. There is, of course, our usual news section which is as packed as always. Although we don't mind, because at long last we aren't talking about the DC reboot.
If you enjoyed, you can find more from us on Instagram @marvelouscinemapodcast, and we would like to say we're immensely grateful for your support! Have a lovely day!

The MCP - Doctor Who Discussion Part 2 (Audio Fixed!)

Hello, welcome back to the podcast for our third and final episode (for now) on Doctor Who. This week, we're looking at the Chibnall/Whittaker era of the show. Despite us thinking that this episode will be shorter given how the most recent of DW's eras is also the shortest, we quickly realised that there's certainly a lot to talk about.
If you enjoyed this episode, and our coverage of Doctor Who over the last few weeks, then you can find more from us over on Instagram @marvelouscinemapodcast. Thank you so much for listening, have a perfect day!

The MCP - Doctor Who Discussion Part 3 (The Finale!)

Hello and welcome back for another episode! This week, our discussion focuses on the career of director/producer/writer JJ Abrams. A man who it seems like has been everywhere, revitalising several franchises like Mission Impossible, Star Trek and Star Wars as well creating several immensely popular TV series. With a rich body of work that's much discussed, we'll be taking a look at how his career has thrived to date as well as the strange standing he seems to have amongst the fans of the franchises he's best-known for working on. This is one mystery box of an episode. See what I did there? Yeah, I know, it wasn't very good.

The MCP - DCEU of the past, DCU of the future!

Hi again, we're back with another episode as the world builds towards the Oscars at the weekend and we thought that we'd join in on the fun. Instead of the usual (and popular) discussion of award winners who perhaps didn't fully deserve their wins, we thought we'd take a slightly different approach and celebrate some of the Oscar wins that truly were moments of triumph. We of course have our normal news segment, which this week includes comments made by a creator of the CW's Arrowverse as well as casting news for the upcoming Hellboy reboot.
We hope you enjoyed this weeks episode and if you would like more from us, you can find us on Instagram @marvelouscinemapodcast where we post reviews, opinions and most recently reels! Thanks so much for your time, have a lovely day!

The MCP - Oscar Winners that Clearly Deserved their win

Hey everyone, we're back with a shorter than usual episode (and a late one, sorry about that) as we just cover the news this week and since we've got a few big plans on the horizon so due to different circumstances we had to make a few changes for this week. But we've still got plenty of content, as we discuss the 2023 Oscars and recent Daredevil casting news!
