Welcome to Marvelous Disney, the podcast that discusses the most recent doings at one of the more dynamic division of the Walt Disney company, which is of course Marvel Entertainment.

This is Entertainment writer Jim Hill and my co-hosts, The Amazing Iron Adams and I are recording this week's episode on Wednesday March 30th, 2022.

Lots of news this week. As always, the news portion of this week's Marvelous Disney is brought to you by Storybook Destination's trusted travel partner of the Jim Hill Media Podcast Network.

No. Spider-Man No Way Home got skunked at the 94th Academy Awards. I was surprised by that. Sort of, I thought at least they would get the Visual Effects Award, which do its dune to come.

Right. I have to say I'm a little scared of Zack Snyder's fandom.

Haha, sure, okay, yeah. Did you see that they introduced is, you know, one of the innovations of this year's Academy Awards in addition to taking away those eight categories.

Was to add a cheerworthy moment that people at home would vote upon. And evidently, Zack Snyder's folks came in and really voted heavily for the Speed Force scene in Justice League.

Likewise, I want to say they also got one of the scenes from his army of the dead film, but she made for Netflix, didn't they?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So now the real question is, what kind of Academy Award did they take home for this wonderful achievement of theirs? They did get a trophy, right?

I did. It was cheerworthy. I just, cheerworthy, worthy of sound. Oh, okay. Good. There we go. So.

Okay, so they didn't have enough room for real awards. So they made up fake awards to plug in their place to find out what rabbit fan base could tweet the most.

Sounds legit. Glad they went in that direction. He said with all of the sarcasm dripping over it like maple syrup on a tall stack of pancakes.

Well, okay. So as we wave fondly to the 2022 Oscars, the very next day, the Walt Disney company revealed that this summer, it would be launching its subscription streaming service in 42 new countries and 11 additional territories across Europe, Africa and West Asia.

And they really went all in as part of this, hyping the fact that, you know, how much Marvel product would be arriving on Disney plus this year.

This is going to include this year because evidently they're working off of a 45 day long window. So we'll get the theatrical releases, Dr. Strange and Multiverse of Madness, we'll get Thor 11 Thunder. Likewise, Black Panther, Wakanda forever, that will arrive just before Christmas.

We'll also get our three limited series, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel and shehulk along with two animated series Marvel, what if and I am grouped in addition to holiday specials, where will by night and the Guardians of the Galaxy holiday special, which you have some news about, right, Aaron?

I do, but before I jump to that news, I do want to throw into the pot. Well, Marvel is coming up with awesome shows to give us on a regular basis.

I would like to put my hat in the ring for you. Remember, back in the olden day of Hugh Hefner and his penthouse show, the bunnies and cocktails and jazz music in Latina.

I would love to see Howard the Duck do a late night swingers type TV show. That would just be how to mix a good cocktail, how to throw the perfect party, all hosted by Howard the Duck.

Wearing like a Hugh Hefner to style robe. Anyway, I'm sorry, I've gotten way off track, but doesn't that sound appealing, Jim, for just, you know, at the very least, that would be fun to see show up on adult swim.

And remember, those of you in the Frank Wells building and you know who you are, that check goes to Aaron Adams, okay? That's a great idea, really.
