Episode 90 - The Meteor Man and Movie Trailer Mania!

February 22, 2018

On today's episode of the podcast, we honor the great success of Marvel's Black Panther by going back to one of the first black superhero movies of the modern era: 1993's The Meteor Man! We review this film full of amazing stars and amazing missteps.

We also cover a little background for Black Panther from the comics. See how it compares to the film!

For Nerdy News, an AI has trouble with Valentine's Day, and cray-fish and ants are up to some amazing behaviors.

We have some brief Radical Recommends and then delve into a slew of new trailers, including: Venom, Deadpool 2, Solo, Mission Impossible: Fallout, Westworld Season 2, Jessica Jones Season 2, Ant Man and the Wasp, and the guaranteed gem: 7 Guardians of the Tomb!
