When Iron Man first hit cinema screens in 2008, no one at the time would’ve even had the slightest inkling that Marvel Studios would grow to be the cinematic titan it is today. Having spawned dozens of sequels, spin-offs and more, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has arguably become the most significant and bankable film franchise in recent memory.
This doesn’t come without its pitfalls however, and you don’t have to look far to see Marvel’s detractors make their thoughts known. Among the most common of criticisms levelled at the franchise has been its uniform approach to story telling, with many viewers begrudgingly making their way to new releases often at the expense of forced humour, undeveloped antagonists, and iffy CGI. These critiques haven’t gone away either, and have actually increased with each successful Marvel outing (even if there are exceptions – Winter Soldier to name but one).
Harley Quinn Season 5 has wrapped up on HBO Max and you know what that means – it’s time for another nerdy RPadTV review and discussion! To talk about the Metropolis adventures of Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and the gang, RPadTV host Raymond Padilla enlisted the help of videogame journalist Paul Semel and Revisiting the Mania’s Carlos Torres.
Raymond, Paul, and Carlos discuss what they liked and didn’t like about Harley Quinn Season 5. Topics include their favorite performances, what they thought about the Metropolis setting, their favorite scenes, the best supporting characters, and parts of the show that could’ve been better.
The undeniable Thunderbolts* threat is still real.
Stranger Things season 5 will be available on Netflix in 2025, and before the epic and fun story ends, fans will want to watch this.
