Mission Statement

We review and discuss comic book-themed motion pictures viewing them through the lens of a fan, while acknowledging that the industry has grown beyond its cult roots.

SPIDER-MAN
A recently-announced “reboot” film for the Spider-Man franchise has created tons of internet chatter, including the podcast you see before you. Here, we discuss the merits of rebooting this franchise rather than creating the dreaded Spider-Man 4. With great power comes great… ahhhhhhh shut up!

Hah!  I’ll bet you thought I wasn’t going to come through with my promise… didn’t you?  Eat your heart out! I’ll post a Spidey page with movie reviews throughout the week, but the most important thing for me was to honor my promise and get the podcast posted today.  But let’s not think for one moment that this was something I did alone.  None of this would have been possible without a few extremely talented and dedicated individuals.  Let’s take a moment to honor them.

Joe Alicia, his lovely wife Ann, and Robert Friedrich have all lent their time and effort to get this podcast done.  I have enjoyed working with them immensely, and hope we can make more of these.  You folks out there feel the same?  Let us know at weirdpro@gmail.com.

Thanks, also, to Jenn Cooper for a bunch of behind-the-scenes work, including picture research/compression, and supplying our podcast with an intro that has a more womanly touch than Marty and I have supplied in the past.

Enjoy!!

NEW CONTENT COMING SOON!  SPIDEY COMING!

The Weird Turn Pro is coming back with a vengeance.  First, our first page in well over half a year: Spider-Man. We’ll be posting reviews along with a podcast.  This, because WeirdPro is getting what is has needed since day one… and that’s a second audio editor.  We’re aiming to have that page up and running very soon (will let you know the date as it gets closer).

As many of you have no doubt heard already, Spider-Man is being rebooted with a new story, new cast, and new director.  Many are asking themselves if this is a good or bad move, and so are we!  If you have any suggestions you would like discussed in this podcast or any comments on Spider-Man, please send any thoughts to weirdpro@gmail.com.  We’ll try to get them on the air!

Directly on the heels of that podcast, we’ll have our long-lost promised page:

WHERE DID OUR HEROES GO WRONG?

Have you ever gone to a superhero movie only to learn that what you saw on the screen IN NO WAY resembles the character you love?  Have you wondered, “What went wrong?”  ”Did the makers of this movie know this character at all?”  ”Or are they just miserable at adapting such a thing?”  Our next feature will go into all that with six new articles based on superhero misfires.
