1st Reforgie Awards: Best of Film and TV 2022

On this Thanksgiving-themed episode of CzechXicans, the boys discuss what they're thankful for this year in life, work and fandom.

We raise a glass to Kevin Conroy and Jason David Frank, childhood heroes gone too soon. Kevin provided the voice for Batman/Bruce Wayne since his 1992 debut in 'Batman: The Animated Series' in a 30+ year career that spanned animation, video games, and even led to a cameo in the CW's 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' storylines as an alternate universe Bruce Wayne. Jason David Frank burst onto our screen in 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers' as Tommy Oliver, the Green Power Ranger. Jason David Frank continued to be involved with the franchise for nearly 30 years and appeared in various iterations of the Power Rangers story, including the 2017 reboot. Like Kevin, Jason traveled extensively to various conventions around the world, greeting and signing autographs for thousands of fans who loved and were inspired by their performances as Bruce Wayne and Tommy Oliver. Hector shares his experience accompanying Kevin Conroy to a convention while working at one of LA's voice-acting agencies.

James Gunn and Peter Safran will lead DC Studios as Co-CEOs. In these roles, James and Peter will be responsible for the next ten years of storytelling and are currently mapping out what the DC Universe will look like across film, television, and animation. This will hopefully give the brand a singular, unified voice that will lead to the return of some of the most beloved characters while also bringing new, never-before-seen characters to the screen. Details are vague, but Gunn is expected to share these plans with Warner Bros. Discovery soon and has also been active on social media to shut down any news or rumors that are false.

In a shocking turn of events, Bob Iger is back at The Walt Disney Company. Bob Chapek, Iger's replacement, has been removed as CEO of the company after two years of service that was met with mixed results and responses from investors and fans worldwide. In his new two-year term, Iger will be tasked with turning things around for the company and finding a new replacement to take over as CEO.
