Sounds Like Ben Affleck’s BATMAN Movie Would’ve Taken Us Inside Arkham Asylum
Scott Wampler is extremely passionate about a lot of the same things that I enjoy. This article is pretty much how I feel about the fact that Affleck had an interesting story in mind for a solo film. While he’s not my favorite Batman, this is something I would have loved to see come to fruition.
‘Spider-Man’ Universe TV Series “Really Special,” Says Chris Miller Of Sony Pictures TV Project

It took me a while to go see Midsommar, but I really enjoyed it. It was one of those movies that makes you uncomfortable at times, yet you’re so engrossed in what’s going on.

Quentin Tarantino’s Feature Presentation
The Ringer impressed me with their work on Halloween Unmasked last year and recently, they put together a three episode mini-series with Quentin Tarantino. While I’m not someone who has watched all of the movies he’s made, I’ve always found him interesting. I’ve seen Pulp Fiction and intend to go see Once Upon A Time in Hollywood soon, but other than that, the rest of his movies are sitting in my “to watch” list. If you have a couple hours to spare, this is worth listening to, especially if you’re a Tarantino fan.

Big thanks to Jason Tate for allowing me to do some writing about podcasts and comic books on Chorus.fm. I read House of X #1 last week and Powers of X #1 this week (post-article). Hickman has an interesting idea for the X-Men and I’m going to see these two series through.

Our first selection is Welcome to Night Vale, which I’m enjoying so far. If you have any interest in joining, send a DM to Welcome to Geekdom on Instagram, since that’s where we are hosting the discussion for now.
