Brennan is joined by Brian Fowler, Andrew Milne, and Caleb Wimble to take a look at the history of our friendly neighborhood superhero dating all the way back to the 1970s, right up to the current run of megablockbusters. Before tackling the amazing webslinger, the movie roundtable that kicks off the episode is jam-packed with new releases, as Andrew is thrilled to catch up with The Furious , Caleb has a surprisingly warm response to Toy Story 5 , Brennan praises Carolina Caroline , and Brian didn't hate Supergirl.","meta_description":"The presumptive biggest film of summer, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is right around the corner, and we're greeting it with a extra-large episode with an ext…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6431,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/alternate-ending-movie-review-podcast-485029/episodes/spider-man-on-film/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/alternate-ending-movie-review-podcast-485029/spider-man-on-film.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
