014 - THE MORBIVERSE IS DEAD

Happy 2025! The PoGcast boyos celebrate the new year with a discussion of the fate of the Sony Spider-Man Villain Cinematic Universe - a franchise encompassing such hits as Morbius (2022), Madam Web (2024), Kraven (2024) and the Venom movies - and what it means for art and franchise filmmaking as a whole. Also this episode: TSD discusses his brand new project, Pillar talks about Severance and both go back and forth on differing takes on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, weirdly enough.
