Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus and Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin are taking another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse as the MCU dives deeper into their Multiverse Saga.
Bill & Alex spent all of 2022 rewatching the first four phases of the MCU, and they just spent 2023 covering the first phase of Netflix’s The Defenders Saga and the first four seasons of ABC’s Agents of SHIELD. This season, they are journeying into Fox’s X-Verse with their X-Treme X-Watch as they prepare for Deadpool & Wolverine this July.
This month, we are continuing our foray into Fox’s X-Verse with our X-Treme X-Watch as we prepare for Deadpool & Wolverine this July.
For our third installment, we are Disney’s Discarded Double Feature of Dark Phoenix & New Mutants. Why are these the Disney Discarded Double Feature? Because these were two films produced by Fox before the merger with Disney, and, due to reshoots and other delays, both were released by Disney after the merger. We’ll get into it!
