Show Notes

Fantastic Four: First Steps isn’t just another superhero reboot — it’s about family.

This week on Thumb War, JD is joined by very special guest Jeshua Kidd (No Dunks, The Athletic) to break down Marvel’s latest MCU installment — a retro, cosmic, heartstring-tugging space race where Reed Richards might as well be Dom Toretto with a PhD.

Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards (our stretchy dad) Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm Julia Garner as a Silver Surfer with real menace Baby Franklin and the most awkward press conference of all time Galactus, teleporting planets, and how science is the new nitrous

Plus: Reactions to Avatar: Fire & Ash, Tron Ares, Predator: Badlands and Caught Stealing Jared Leto discourse, again What happened to John Malkovich and the super apes subplot?

Spoilers from the jump. Because, in the words of Dominic Toretto… it's all about family.
