Cinema Excelsior
by Stoutbot Industries
Cinema Excelsior is an exploration of films based on Marvel Comics. We analyze the good, the bad, and the really, really bad movies that make up the Marvel canon and try to understand what makes each one succeed or fail as adaptation, as production, and as art.

Holiday Special 1: Howard The Duck (Special Edition)
Yes, that's right! Although we began Cinema Excelsior with a discussion of "Howard the Duck", only two of our five regular panelists were actually a part of that landmark episode. As a holiday present to you, dear listener, we have re-viewed the film and subjected it to a full five-panelist...

Ep. 37 - Thor: The Dark World
All right, gang. This was a tough one.
-
Ep. 36 - The Wolverine
This is for the bear. Step into the Mission to Mars room and go on a journey with everyone's contractually-mandated favorite X-Man as he travels to Tokyo for a good old-fashioned samurai story. Would this have been better as an Ozu-style family drama? You be the judge!

-
Ep. 26 - Punisher: War Zone
