‘The Marvels’ and the Future of Marvel
It’s been an interesting and somewhat challenging year for superhero movies, with the once seemingly invincible Marvel Studios showing signs of wear and tear. For example, the studio’s latest tentpole team-up film (and one of its best in years), ’The Marvels,’ is now widely regarded as its first-ever commercial flop, and the actor Jonathan Majors, whose character Kang the Conqueror was supposed to be the Big Bad of Marvel’s latest saga, was just dropped by the studio after being convicted of domestic abuse. Is this the end of the superhero movie boom, a moment of truth for Marvel, or the beginning of a new era? And what, if anything, does the Jewish tradition have to say about it. Join Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky as they go “higher, further, faster,” discussing ‘The Marvels’ and the future of the MCU.
Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.
