The Movie Defenders


The Movie Defenders podcast is a show dedicated to talking about the best things about the films you love, not tear everything down.

Jan 13, 2019

What's up, Danger? Today, in the longest analysis we've done since The Last Jedi, we talk about a film that needs no defense, but one that demands to be gushed over... Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse! To re-immerse yourself into the Spider-Verse, we play over 20 clips from the film as we unpack and dissect this marvel of a movie. But first we talk about Joe Manganiello teaching D&D at a children's hospital, Carol Burnette's refreshing speech at the Golden Globes, Aquaman pushing 1 Billion at the box office, and The Batman film by Matt Reeves has a finished script. We also debate what are the best action films of the 1990s. As far as the film goes, if you liked the movie, we'll make you love it. If you loved it, we'll make you love it more! So fire up your Super Collider, thwip and release, and put on some Post Malone... it's time to enter the Spider-Verse!
