    The Baby Bunch

    The MCU takes its First Steps into Phase Six by bringing comic's premiere family, The Fantastic Four, back into the fold.

    What About Bob?

    Marvel Studios turns to treacherous CIA director Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Seinfeld) to help them identify New Avengers to replace their most iconic superheroes, and carry the franchise forward. But will longtime MCU fans buy a ticket (or even a box of Wheaties) for a ragtag assembly of antiheroes known as the Thunderbolts? Listen Now to find out if former Black Widow Florence Pugh, her drunken surrogate father David Harbour, newly elected Congressman Sebastian Stan, bitter super soldier Wyatt Russell, and barely there Hannah John-Kamen can pull it off.

    At last, I finally understand the dangers of investing in Krypto

    Director James Gunn leaves Guardians of the Galaxy behind to launch DC Studios, starting with the 2025 resurrection of Superman. But can David Corenswet be a Man of Steel to Metropolis after Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) smears his good name in a social media campaign that questions why dad Bradley Cooper sent him to Earth? And is the narrative even harder to control when reporter-girlfriend Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) challenges the way “Big Blue” protects foreign countries from invasion? Get the full scoop as the Now Playing Gang reunites.

I have listened to Now Playing Podcast for years. I love thier format of going through series of movies or going through movies with connections, for example going through all movies based on Marvel comic books or going through all movies based on Steven King books.

Each host brings something different to the table and tgey all have great but different views of the movies they watch.

I also love the longer format, too many other podcast stick to a set time length. Now Playing Podcast takes their time with each movie and are willing to give a bigger movie more time to discuss, rather than rushing through to make a hard cut off.

One if the best movie podcast!!

These guys have been in my ear since 2012 and I haven’t missed a week since. Their show exactly replicates how my friends and I talk about movies.

Best Movie Podcast Period

Now Playing Podcast is easily the best movie review podcast out there. Their in depth reviews of (mostly) movie series cover everything from Star Trek to Marvel, from Horror to complete works of directors like M. Night Shyamalan and Quentin Tarantino.
Each podcast has three reviewers, a newbie, a fan and someone that saw at least some of the movies in the series before.
I personally try to (re)watch every movie before I listen to the review, I find myself disagreeing and agreeing and even single sidedly joining the discussion (ok screaming at my phone).
If you listen to only one podcast in your life, listen to Now Playing Podcast.

if you like movies, you will love Now Playing!

I've been a fan of Now Playing since their review of Tron Legacy. Over the past decade they've gone from being a fun podcast to listen to, to being my go to podcast. They have a vast catalog of reviews from the newest blockbusters to classics to obscure horror movies and TV superhero movies.
