Jeff Goldblum Returning For Thor Love and Thunder?

Now it’s not unusual to take in a Rugby game with your friends, we do find it a little suspicious that he is in Australia right now. And with Taika and Chris Hemsworth who are filming Thor Love and Thunder.

The last time we saw the Grandmaster, he was alive. And unless Marvel shows us someone is dead dead, they can always return.

Spider-Man No Way Home Set Leaks

Spider-Man No Way Home officially wrapped on filming so we though the leaks might stop. However, two new leaks/rumors have surfaced. The first is more evidence that Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man is in this film. Last week we talked about his stunt double posting a picture allegedly from the set. This week the wrap gifts for the crew supposedly included a shirt with Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man on it. You can see it in the link below.

Also Elizabeth Henstridge aka Simmons from Agents of Shield was spotted leaving Atlanta the day after No Way Home wrapped. Could Simmons have been called in to consult on the multiverse? Maybe Fury decided she needed to come help.

Kross Studios Deathstar Watch

If you have 150,000 you too could own the most ridiculous yet awesome watch on the planet. Kross Studios created a Deathstar watch that is more of an experience than just a watch. You can see it in all its glory here.

The Suicide Squad Trailer

The Suicide Squad dropped its first trailer and we have some thoughts. It actually doesn’t look bad. However, we are afraid they may have shown all the best parts in the trailer. What did you think?

Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2

Henry Cavill is rumored to return, while Armie Hammer needs to be replaced obviously. Some fans think Oliver Jackson Cohen would be perfect for that role. We had another suggestion, which if you know us at all is not a surprise in the least.

Falcon and Winter Soldier Episode 2 Breakdown

Last week, we broke down episode 1 of Falcon and Winter Soldier, and episode 2, “Star-Spangled Man” is now streaming on Disney+. It gave us more US Agent, which had our blood boiling and also featured a hilarious, yet heartbreaking, therapy session.

We would love to know how you feel about budget Cap, how they are pushing him onto the world, and when you think his true colors will show. Leave a comment or tweet with us.

This is your spoiler warning if you haven’t watched Episode 2 of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

Falcon and Winter Soldier Episode 2 Breakdown

Falcon and Winter Soldier Episode 2 Breakdown

The show begins with John Walker reliving his glory days at his old high school before taking the field to show off his new title of Captain America. His partner Hoskins who reveals his alias later as Battlestar is also there.

Unlike Steve who hated the pomp and circumstance that surrounded his forced stage shows as Captain America, Walker is reveling in them, taking selfies, signing autographs like a gloried comic con newb. Sam and Bucky watch as this clown parades around with the shield.

They leave to confront the Flag Smashers in Germany where after a battle, Bucky realizes exactly what they are dealing with. Like we mentioned last week these people are strong and now we know why.

falcon and winter soldier podcast Bucky Barnes

This episode did a few things. One, it made us hate John Walker more. Two, it revealed how the Flag Smashers are so powerful. Three, it tackled race in such a poignant and honest way. Four, it made us even more hyped for next week.

John Walker and his buddy Hoskins both have ties to the criminal organization the Power Brokers. The Power Brokers are after the Flag Smashers for stealing what belongs to them, which would be the super-soldier serum that they developed.

Related: Best Quotes from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier

We also met Isaiah Bradley, the black Captain America, this week. In the comics and on the show it seems, Isaiah was mercilessly experimented on by both the government and Hydra. Sam also dealt with discrimination for simply being a black man on a street in Maryland.

Our favorite therapist was back and forced our two unlikely friends into a couples’ therapy session. What followed was the most hilarious moment of the show while also being a very heartfelt, tender one as well. After they have a staring contest the heart of their problem is revealed which as often happens in therapy brings them closer together.

The Weekly Bugle Vol. 21

This past week we saw a new Loki poster plus some interesting casting and confirmation. Sure there was that one 4-hour long cut that was released, but we don’t have the time for that. But we do have the time to discuss the latest Marvel news. Click here for our Falcon and Winter Soldier Episode 1 Breakdown

Loki

Loki Podcast

Marvel Studios released a new poster promoting the upcoming Loki series coming to Disney+ on June 11. It shows Loki in the custody of the TVA complete with a collar that much like Wanda’s in Civil War is meant to disrupt his power. However, one look at his face shows he is not concerned in the least.

Visually the clock is playing to the notion of his time traveling. It is also a nod to the TVA’s time machine from the comics. We have some thoughts about the lack of hexagons and the multitude of circles.

Andrew Garfield on Spider-Man Set

William Spencer, Andrew Garfield’s stunt double, shared and has since deleted a photo of him allegedly on the set of Spider-Man No Way Home. He also tagged Tom Holland’s stunt double in the caption and liked a comment that asked “are you on the set of NWH?” 

While the multiverse angle of No Way Home has been out there for a while this would be more confirmation that it’s happening. However

Pretty sure the dude is in a Marvel jail somewhere and will never work again. We have seen those NDA’s close up and they cover EVERYTHING.

Patriot Confirmed For Falcon and Winter Soldier

Elijah Richardson who was rumored to be playing Eli Bradley aka Patriot in Falcon and The Winter Soldier is confirmed to be in the show based on an Instagram story from his agency. That means one more for the Young Avengers and we are excited about it.

ZOMBIES 3

Fans of the Disney Channel franchise Zombies will be excited to learn that Zombies 3 is officially filming. The Zoms, Poms, and Werewolves must team up to take on a threat of galactic proportions.

As promised our Falcon and Winter Soldier episode 1 breakdown is here! The highly anticipated Marvel show is now streaming on Disney+ and if you haven’t watched it yet do that and then come back and hang out with us.

For anyone who complained WandaVision didn’t start off fast enough or Marvel enough, they won’t be saying that now. Falcon and The Winter Soldier drops you right into the middle of the action and feels very much like an MCU film.

Falcon and Winter Soldier Episode 1 Breakdown

The show begins on a somber note as Sam is packing up the shield Steve gave him at the end of Avengers: Endgame. But almost immediately the scene shifts and fans are treated to an epic aerial battle. Falcon manages to rescue an operative who was kidnapped by none other than Batroc. Remember him?

Batroc gets away and before Sam heads home he learns about the Flag-Smashers, a group of individuals who think like was better during the blip. They want a unified world with no borders, and essentially no governments.

Sam turns over Steve’s shield to the Smithsonian to be used in the ever-expanding Captain America exhibit.

Falcon on your left

Bucky continues to have nightmares about the bad things that happened during his Winter Soldier days. He is in therapy which is good for him as someone with PTSD to the millionth degree. It is also a mandated part of his pardon.

Related: The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Review

The show mixes in classic Marvel humor with a lot of action and heart. There are more scenes about the real-world implications of the Blip, which started in WandaVision. Specifically how hard it is now that everything and everyone is back to “normal.”

The last 3 minutes or so had us fuming! If you know us well, you know exactly what I mean too.

wandavision assembled the weekly bugle vol 20

Welcome back to the Geek Girls’ Universe for The Weekly Bugle Vol 20. It’s been a relatively quiet week, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have something to talk about. Assembled: The Making of WandaVision debuted on Disney+, Wynonna Earp season 4 is in full swing, and we may have screened the first episode of a show you MIGHT know about.

So WandaVision may be over but that doesn’t mean there was nothing new from Marvel this past week. First Assembled: The Making of WandaVision debuted on Disney+. Then Marvel shared the final trailer ahead of the premiere of Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

Assembled: The Making of WandaVision

Assembled: WandaVision took viewers behind the scenes of the show. It showcased each of the main characters and gave us all a glimpse into what they thought about being part of the first official MCU show.

Did you know Paul Bettany wore a fake butt? Hilarious and true. The sets were designed and redesigned quickly to allow for the filming pace. Kathryn Hahn and Evan Peters were thrilled to be part of the MCU.

This show required a lot from everyone involved and they delivered. This is a must-watch for any fan of the show.

Wynonna Earp Season 4

Hands down one of our favorite shows on television, Wynonna Earp season 4 has finally come back from its mid-season break. In this latest episode, Andrew Phung’s Casey made his return as well.

Halloween in Purgatory, nothing could possibly go wrong right? What is actually going wrong is the fact that once again Wynonna is being ended after this season. We discuss the Earper fandom and our hopes that we can save this show–again.

New York International Children’s Festival

New York International Children’s Festival (NYICFF) just wrapped up Sunday and we both had a great time (virtually) checking out all the features and shorts this festival had to offer. The NYICFF was founded in 1997 to support the creation and dissemination of thoughtful, provocative, and intelligent film for children and teens ages 3-18. The Festival experience cultivates an appreciation for the arts, encourages active, discerning viewing. It also stimulates lively discussion among peers, families, and the film community.

Hands down one of our favorite features was The Legend of Hei. The Legend of Hei, based on the web series from director MTJJ, combines fantasy-world building with gorgeous animation, humor, action, and the most adorable character ever maybe- Hei.

Related: The Legend of Hei Review

Another favorite was the shorts, especially the ones focused on breaking the binary. These films explore identity beyond gender binaries, as queer kids shape their own ideas of who they are, finding possibilities of joy and community along the way.

Falcon and The Winter Soldier Final Trailer and Theories

Marvel Studios dropped the final trailer for Falcon and The Winter Soldier ahead of its premiere this Friday.

From what we have seen it’s going to be epic but you should’ve already known that. Plus for all those negative nellies who complained about WandaVision starting too slow, they won’t have anything to say this time.

Falcon and Winter Soldier is an action-packed show. AKA MARVEL. The relationship between Sam and Bucky is golden, all the fun you are expecting after seeing them together in other films. And yeah get ready for a few tears too. Our full reviews will be dropping later this week when the embargo lifts. Until then… on your left.

Welcome back to the Geek Girls’ Universe for The Weekly Bugle Vol 19. This week we are breaking down both figuratively (and maybe literally) as we discuss the WandaVision finale. Episode 9 was wow! Plus we are talking about the Thor 4 set photos, Spider-Man No Way Home, and more!

The Weekly Bugle Vol 19

The Weekly Bugle Vol 19

WandaVision Episode 9 made us run the gamut of emotions and ended with several teases about what could be coming in future phase 4 offerings. While a lot of theories weren’t proven, they weren’t necessarily disproven either. We are betting that after other MCU series and shows have been released we will be able to look back on WandaVision and see where the seeds were laid. And of course, we get to say we told you so.

WandaVision Finale Breakdown

The Weekly Bugle Vol 19 WandaVision Finale Breakdown

We knew we would have to say goodbye to Vision and the boys but we think it would’ve been easier if Marvel had indeed let Mephisto take them. That family scene was beautifully devastating. It made us cry, for proof of that watch our reaction video, but in the end, we felt like it ended just right.

Related: WandaVision Episode 9 Breakdown and Easter Eggs

Now we know some fans felt a little let down by what did or rather what didn’t happen. However, viewed through the lens of the MCU as a whole it was perfect. Would we have liked some loose ends tied up? Sure. Were we rooting for a Reed Richard’s text or Loki showing up? 100%. But not getting those things didn’t detract from what WandaVision did give us- a new era of MCU greatness.

Related: WandaVision Cocktail The Darcy

Now the future looks bright and intense because the first credit scene tied into Secret Invasion with a side of Captain Marvel 2. We think the Skrull was referring to Nick Fury and we cannot wait to see SLJ again.

The second one not only implies Darkhold/Chthon ties but also proved that Tommy and Billy will be back in the future. Wanda in her new bad *ss Scarlet Witch outfit just needs to find them. And lord help whoever has taken them captive because that omega-level mutant mama is not playing games.

Thor 4 Set Photos

This past week we also got a glimpse into Thor Love and Thunder by some fan set pictures. Melissa McCarthy, Matt Damon, and Luke Hemsworth were on stage acting out another Asgardian play. McCarthy will be playing the role of Hela. This should be amazing. And what would be even better is if a certain god of mischief somehow came back to see the play for himself. Just saying.

Meeks was also spotted as well as Thor’s goats- Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder. It will be interesting, to say the least to see these two in the MCU. There were also some pics of a certain character but we won’t share them here because see: Friend, Marry, Kill Marvel Edition.

WandaVision Episode 8 Breakdown

WandaVision episode 8 could have been we told you so part 2 but regardless of the “we knew it moments,” “Previously on” took us on an emotional ride. More than once we found ourselves with tears in our eyes.

Agatha’s backstory was revealed. It is possible she was possessed by something or someone that taught her dark magic. Could that be Chthon or whoever inhabits the Darkhold? We think it is and that Agatha will be redeemed by the end of the show.

Related: WandaVision Episode 8 Easter Eggs & Breakdown

Agatha and Wanda walked us through Wanda’s life and although it was inevitable we ended up doing this it didn’t make it any less heartbreaking. In fact, it was sadder than we thought it was going to be. In a beautiful scene with Vision, we see the beginning of their love for one another as Vision tells her what is grief if not love persevering?

Related: The Best Quotes From Marvel’s WandaVision

Hayward is a TOTAL jerk and other names we can’t use because this is a family-friendly podcast. We knew the footage of Wanda at SWORD wasn’t the real story, but now we get to see exactly what happened that day. And it was crushing.

The Handmaid's Tale Season 4 on Hulu

The Handmaid’s Tale season 4 is set to debut on Hulu April 28. It may not be everyone’s cup of tea but the ladies this season are going to kick butt and take names. And if you are a fan, good news! It has also been renewed for a season 5.

“Honor the Legacy” The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

In time to soothe our hearts from missing WandaVision, Falcon and The Winter Soldier will premiere on Disney+ March 19. They just released a new featurette, Honor the Legacy, and we don’t know about you but it really makes us mad to see someone else with the shield other than Sam or Bucky.

In the words of Kuzco… NO TOUCHY.

Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K.

Debuting on Hulu May 21 is an all-new adult cartoon Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. The megalomaniacal supervillain M.O.D.O.K. (Patton Oswalt) has long pursued his dream of one day conquering the world. But after years of setbacks and failures fighting the Earth’s mightiest heroes, M.O.D.O.K. has run his evil organization A.I.M. into the ground.

Ousted as A.I.M.’s leader, while also dealing with his crumbling marriage and family life, the Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing is set to confront his greatest challenge yet! 

Spider-Man: No Way Home

Spider-Man No Way Home

We finally got a real title for the upcoming Spider-Man 3. It is Spider-Man No Way Home. Sounds ominous, doesn’t it? We think it means he could end up trapped in the multiverse, needing Doctor Strange and Wanda’s help to get home. Or it could be that due to his status as a “killer” he cannot go home. What do you think?

Shrill

The final season of “Shrill” premieres on Hulu on May 7. Despite the show coming to an end, Aidy Bryant, who portrays Annie said, “The battle against self-hatred is never over.” Jana has a love-hate with this one while Ashley has never watched.

Snowpiercer

Episode 7 of WandaVision had a lot of I told you so moments for us which didn’t make them any less satisfying to witness. Jana called it way back on Episode 5 that Agnes was behind poor old Sparky’s death. And all along we have said, the entire fandom has said, that Agnes=Agatha.

In a not-so-shocking reveal, WandaVision finally lets that black cat out of the bad with one of the best reveals and a theme song that is a total bop.

Related: WandaVision Episode 7 Easter Eggs and Breakdown

We also learned that Pietro is a FAKE (told you so) and Hayward was officially attempting to bring Vision back online as a sentient weapon (told you so). Monica came into her powers or rather began to show them off as she bravely entered the hex to save Darcy, Wanda, and the townspeople from Hayward’s schemes.

Whether she will be Photon or Spectrum remains to be seen but she is definitely rocking those blue eyes of power. Puppet Pietro better watch his back, snoopers gonna snoop.

The commercial this week has many meanings but at least none of them are a child starving to death. We discuss Nexus and what relevance it could have to Doctor Strange 2 and the upcoming Loki series.

During the Agatha reveal, we entered her creepy basement complete with an ominous glowing book. We have some theories as to what that book is and who has still yet to reveal themselves as the ultimate orchestrator of evil.

Cruella

Brilliant. Bad. A little bit mad. The new trailer for Disney’s live-action Cruella dropped last week and it gave off some Harley Quinn/Joker vibes but in a good way. We love how incredibly evil and deranged she appears in the trailer. After all, villains should be villains.

Cruella is set in 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution and follows a young grifter named Estella, a clever and creative girl determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly Haute.

But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable, and revenge-bent Cruella.

Cruella is in theaters May 28, 2021.

The Weekly Bugle Vol 16

WandaVision episode 6 lived up to its Halloween SPOOKtacular name. It was creepy, intense, and left us begging the universe to make it Friday again. What is going on with Hayward and Monica? Billy and Tommy are coming into their own, and Uncle P may not be who he claims to be.

Spoiler warning if you have not watched WandaVision episode 6.

WandaVisions Episode 6 Breakdown

the weekly bugle vol 16 wandavision episode 6 breakdown

This episode packed a lot in despite being shorter than episode 5. Several key things were revealed this week. One – Hayward is DEFINITELY up to no good. We talked Project CATARACT and what it could mean for Vision. Two – Monica still seems nonplussed to learn her DNA has been changed on a molecular level. She shrugs it off leaving us and Woo to question what she isn’t revealing yet.

Related: The Best WandaVision Quotes

Three – Billy and Tommy did get their comic book powers. Whether or not this will save them if Mephisto comes calling remains to be seen. Perhaps, this moment is exactly what the devil was waiting for.

Related: WandaVision’s Hexagons May Be Further Proof Of Mephisto

Four – Vision is still very much dead in the real world. In a traumatic scene, Vision attempts to leave the hex and proceeds to fall apart in front of our eyes. Darcy is the only one who cares.

Related: WandaVision Episode 6 Easter Eggs and Breakdown

Five – The hex has expanded and only Woo, Monica, Hayward, and a handful of other SWORD soldiers made it out. We hope that Monica and Woo got the file Darcy sent off about CATARACT and are able to meet up with her “guy.” Who is that? *cough* Reed Richards *cough*

Finally, Uncle Pietro continued to be shady. He admits he is there to cause her grief, but what kind of grief? We don’t know yet. Faux Pietro has some interesting questions for Wanda and “explanations” for why he looks so different. However, he makes a nasty comment about Vision already being dead, which prompted Wanda to power blast him across Town Square.

It will be interesting to see them interact next week and if we will ever see our beloved MCU Pietro again.

Cherry

We both had the opportunity to screen Tom Holland’s latest Cherry and wow it was brilliant. Tom delivered the best performance of his career while the Russo Bros once again blew us away with their cinematography and direction. This story focuses on tough subject matter and neither the Russo’s or Holland shy away from it.

They bring this semi-autobiographical story to life in a raw, heartbreaking, yet stunning way.

Cherry is in select theaters 2/26 and on AppleTV+ 3/12.

Another film we screened this week and the complete opposite of Cherry was Tom & Jerry The Movie. We also had the chance to talk with Director, Tim Story, about the movie.

Whether you are a fan of the original cartoons or just looking for a fun, action-packed family film Tom & Jerry is a must-see. All of our kids give it two big thumbs up.
