"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're starting our look at the MCU Phase 2 with "Iron Man 3" and "Thor: Dark World." Before that, I talk a bit about the direction the DTVC Extra might go in now that we're doing weekly episodes with guests. I also get into the buzz--or non-buzz--surrounding "Madame Web." With "Iron Man 3," I look at why this was so successful, and how it measures up to the other two; and then with "Thor: Dark World," I try to make sense of the film, and make sense of how these Thor movies make so much money.
