Deadpool & Wolverine have entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe -sort of- and Kneel Before Pod is here to break it down. The conversation covers off-limits jokes, fanservice and the rejection of God in modern cinema.

Ode to Joy
A man who suffers from a rare form of narcolepsy that causes him to pass out whenever he feels strong happiness has his coping techniques put to the test when he falls in love in Jason Winer’s Ode to Joy. A comedy centred around the premise of someone suffering from a condition may seem somewhat…
Gotham – Season 5 – “Legend of the Dark Knight”
“Legend of the Dark Knight” – Gotham’s final season Gotham season 5 ended the show in what seemed to be a very respectful manner. The two strongest vibes I got were a remembrance of a lost friend and of a child tidying up under the watchful eye of a stern parent. Being honest I didn’t…

Some of these questions definitely had a greater effect on…
Gotham – Season 3 Episode 20
“Heroes Rise: Pretty Hate Machine” I’m hoping that this week’s Gotham is the setup for the double-episode season finale plot in the same way that ‘Light the Wick’ felt like the painful setup for ‘All Will Be Judged’. Not that I disliked this week’s fare as much as ‘Light the Wick’ but a large majority…
