Note: There are a few technical glitches in this episode. Our apologies, producing podcasts during the apocalypse, is not without it's challenges. But it's a great episode!
If you did a Google search for comic book movies that were never made. You would be blown away, by not only the sheer number, but also by the number of fan favourite franchises, and characters that almost made it to the silver screen. One of these never to be films, that really peaked our curiosity was a 1997 Daredevil film that was to be produced by Hollywood legend, Chris Columbus. Now this project never went beyond the brainstorm stage, however there was a treatment written by a well respected comic book scribe, Jean Marc Dematteis, who's name you should recognize from possibly one of the greatest Spiderman stories of all time, Kraven's Last Hunt. Columbus tasked Dematteis with writing the treatment, but sadly the project never made it past those pages. Luckily though, the treatment found its way online, and I have to say, we had great time reading it! It's a page turner! So come join us as we breakdown the 1997 film treatment by JM Dematteis "The Man Without Fear" act, by act.

Ep. 57 - Between Pointed Ears - When Fans Attack
Well, over the last couple of months. Fandom has reached a new level of insanity, just this past week. A developer who works on the Marvel Spiderman game, received some pretty egregious threats because he did a little remodeling to the Peter Parker character in the game. Gina Carano, who plays Cara Dune on the Mandalorian was targeted by Twitter users because she wouldn't add her pronouns to her Twitter bio. And season 2 of the boys was rating bombed by angry so called "fans" because the whole season wasn't made available on Prime like it had been in past seasons.
When did we go from celebrate, to hate? And how and why did it happen so fast? Well the Meanwhile Crew has some thoughts. So join us as we look back at some of fandom's darkest moments, and try to make sense of this age of fancanity.
