Broadcast Geeks

Welcome to Episode 168 of Broadcast Geeks! On this podcast we discuss all things geek and nerd related, provided our DVR’s have space and our Netflix accounts are our own and none others.  This week, the Geeks (Jeff, Jake, Mitch, Chris Baker and Matt Orrin) are joined by Josh Skillman, and are back in the Quantum Realm to discuss all things geek.  D23 just passed and we were ALL a buzz over the news!!  So much Disney stuff to talk about, especially since they own everything these days.  Firstly, we had to talk about the Sony Marvel news, in which Spiderman will become disconnected from the MCU as a result of Feige not having involvement.  Disney wants a huge chunk (half!?) of earnings from the next Spiderman movie, as well as involvement in a Venom movie.  The question is:  Can Sony make a movie without Marvels help and still make a ton of money?  Based on past movies, it doesn't seem too likely.  Venom did fine, but Spidey must have ridden on the coattails of Endgame to pull in the kinds of numbers it did.
