Casting: The Fantastic 4

Who will be stepping into the shoes of Marvel fans’ favorite faction?

With two flopped movies under their belt, The Fantastic 4 (2005) and Fan4stic (2015), Marvel is finally looking to reboot the beloved team introducing them into the MCU for 2025.

Since the official announcement of the film, fans have been clamoring as to who will fill out the jumpsuits on the big screen. While Marvel has still kept updates on this film relatively close to the chest, these are the castings we may see or want to see in the 2024 reboot.

Adam Driver-Reed Richards

Initially rumored to have auditioned for a different role in the upcoming Fantastic 4 film, TheDirect noted that “Insider” Jeff Sneider, as well as Daniel Richtman both, had it on good authority that Marvel was more than interested in the actor behind Kylo Ren for Mr. Fantastic himself.

Margot Robbie- Sue Storm

CoveredGeekly.com

Seemingly all rumors at this point, Margot Robbie is heavily being considered to be the perfect casting choice for Sue Storm. While already visual the resemblance is uncanny, Margot is no stranger to the superhero scene portraying Harley Quinn in DC’s 2016 Suicide Squad. With Marvel yet to comment, will they pull the trigger for the fan-favorite Invisible Woman?

Paul Mescal- Johnny Storm

EuroesEuro.com

Packaged as a trio alongside Driver and Robbie in the Fantastic 4 rumor mill community, Paul Mescal is a young up and commer known for his role as Connell Waldron in Normal People. We know from experience Marvel is no stranger to taking a chance on younger, lesser-known actors as was the case with Tom Holland in the first MCU Spider-Man film, and Paul would perfectly fit that role as the universe’s new Human Torch.

Mila Kunis- She-Thing

With no current comment from Marvel or Mila, the rumors have been running wild that Mila Kunis is being planned to fill the roll of The Thing. While The Thing (Ben Grimm) is anything but a small Brunnett woman, the thought is Mila will be stepping into the role of “She-Thing”. With the overtly negative response garnered from the She-Hulk series, this would definitely be an interesting, but not unexpected move on Marve’s behalf.

Editors Note: My issue is how are we going to get a canon She-Thing before a canon Thing…

John Krasinski- Reed Richards

Marvel Studios

The only current standing, canon Reed Richards in the MCU, John Krasinski is said to NOT be returning to reprise his role as Mister Fantastic. This may come as an upset to the MCU community who rallied behind him being cast years before Marvel pulled the trigger, but it would seem according to John he will not be returning but rather his Reed Richards is simply one of many in the multiverse that we will likely not be seeing again on the big screen.

Chris Evans- Johnny Storm

ScreenRant

With Chris Evan’s Captain America firmly phased out of the MCU and the multiverse firmly established now is the perfect chance to bring back America’s ass as The Fantastic 4’s Human Torch one more time! I can see the meta jokes about Johnny Storm looking familiar now.

Adam Driver (again)- Dr. Doom

GossipChimp/BFHdesigh: Instagram

As of right now, Adam Driver is heavily believed to be taking the role of Reed Richards, however, as mentioned earlier that’s not the initial role the was poised for. Early reports showed that Driver was being considered for Victor Von Doom. According to Slender, a reliable insider from Hollywood, Driver was ” approached for both Reed and Doom a while back.”

Jason Segul- The Thing

ScreenSpy

Rumored to be appearing in The She-Hulk series via The DisInsider, The Thing is being talked about amongst fans to be represented on the screen via Jason Sehul. Much like Daredevil, if Segul does end up being cast in the role of the Fantastic 4’s big man for She-Hulk, it’s not unlikely the lumbering actor may be properly inserted into the MCU.

Nationalism is NOT bad

The past few years have seen the term “nationalism” take quite the beating, being warped and twisted by the main stream media as well as social networks. It’s important to remember just what nationalism really stands for.

While the term “Nationalism” has seemingly taken on a negative connotation over the past few years, be assured that being a nationalist is not, and should never be seen as disparaging. While surely there are multiple instances we can trace to the shift in attitude surrounding nationalism, none seem to be as apparent in America as the 2016 presidential election and the events leading up to it. With much of then-candidate Donald Trump’s campaign being based around bringing jobs back to The United States rather than outsourcing our country’s workforce, the “Make America Great Again” movement relied heavily on nationalistic morals. This is seemingly where much of the divide and confusion stemmed from. As the 2016 presidential election rolled on, American citizens, politicians, and media sources alike who opposed the Trump lead, Republican campaign began to make unwarranted claims of “racism” due to the foundations his run was established on. While his opposition saw building border walls around the southern United States and tightening voting laws as an act of prejudice, in actuality these ideas were backed by the simple plan of strengthening America from within and taking the time to rely on ourselves as a nation once again for Jobs, Income, and Economic growth. Because of this, often times we saw the term “Nationalism” linked alongside “Racism” or “prejudice” by the Republican party’s opposition. Still to this day, this stigma remains despite President Joe Biden holding office now for his third year, this issue has surpassed a single isolated election.

The Issue with Aligning Nationalism to a Political Party

This issue is much deeper at this point than red vs. blue. Because of the events surrounding the 2016 election onward, people seem to affiliate nationalism with The Republican Party, however, the nationalism they align is this new misconstrued warped, evil view of it. Let it be perfectly clear,
Nationalism is not a party. Nationalism is not Republican. Nationalism is not Democrat.

At its core, behind all the mud-slinging, all the media discrepancy, all the slander campaigns, Nationalism is quite simply the belief in your own nation. Being a nationalist does not mean you agree wholeheartedly with any particular politician, political party, or even the United States Government as a whole because nationalism is not political. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting your country to succeed, being thankful that you have been blessed with the opportunities you have because of this nation, and most importantly, regardless of who may hold the oval office and how your beliefs align with theirs, being proud of the place you are from and wanting it to get better. Being a nationalist by no means implies you think America is flawless, on the contrary, it means you want to see it improve, grow, and become stronger and better than ever.

On September 11th, 2001, The United States of America suffered one of, if not THE most, tragic events on US soil to date. On that day and the days following, we as Americans were hurt, confused, angry, and lost, but we weren’t alone. We stood tall together. We cried, prayed, fought, and rallied together. We did this not as Republicans, Not as Democrats, but as Americans. In this tragic event, we were reminded how small we really are. More importantly, were reminded that in this crazy world, we still had each other, our fellow Americans. together we watched along at home as Neil Armstrong became the first man to step foot on the moon, we wept together when President John F. Kennedy was taken from us right before our eyes, we rejoiced together as Osama Bin Laden was brought down by American forces. All of this we did together, as Americans.

That is what Nationalism is.

2023 King of The Hill Reboot Breakdown

The following is everything we currently know surrounding the reboot of the popular Fox series King of The Hill coming in 2023.

Seemingly since its cancellation, the audience has been clamoring for a return of Mike Judge’s beloved King of The Hill series. The rumor mill began turning in 2017 as the cast reunited alongside creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels for the show’s 20th-anniversary at San Francisco Sketchfest.

Since Judge’s success with the HBO-ordered movie and subsequent revival of Beavis and Butthead, it seemed like only a matter of time before we saw KOTH follow suit. With both Daniels and Judge openly and vocally in favor of some form of reboot or revival for the show, fans remained optimistic the Arlen gang would get a second life. In 2021 another big announcement broke from show writer Brett Forrester when he was asked if there were any plans for a possible King Of The Hill return during a Reddit AMA. He responded with the following, “I am sure Greg Daniels and Mike Judge will murder me for sharing this but… HELL YES. They are in hot negotiations to bring back King of the Hill.” With this, the internet went absolutely wild as it seemed now we were cooking with propane.

Fast forward to January 31st, 2023 and Hulu announced they had ordered a revival of the beloved series. At the current moment, it appears the majority of the original voice cast will be returning to reprise their respective roles including of course Hank Hill (Mike Judge), Bill Dauterive (Stephen Root), Dale Gribble (Johnny Hardwick), Jeff Boomhauer (also Mike Judge),  Peggy Hill (Kathy Najimy), Bobby Hill (Pamela Adlon), and Minh Souphanousinphone (Lauren Tom), As expressed by Deadline.

Characters NOT Confirmed

As of now, we only know the returning characters via their voice actors’ involvement. Unfortunately, real life happens and in 2009 voice actor Brittany Murphy passed away at the age of 32. Her role as Luanne Platter, Peggy’s niece, is one that is very much still up in the air with Judge not yet commenting if he has plans for a replacement voice actor to continue the character. However, this isn’t out of the realm of possibility as we saw in 1997 with Jonathan Joss taking over the role of John Redcorn following the untimely passing of original voice actor Victor Aaron.

Alongside Luanne, poetically, is the case of her husband Lucky who was famously voiced by the late Tom Petty. While Lucky’s role can be argued as a more minor one, later seasons began including him more frequently in gang hijinks as well as his own stories within the show.

On another note, there does seem to be one glaring, living, omission from the confirmed cast list. While his wife Minh is slated to return, Hank’s foil, Khan Souphanousinphone ( Toby Huss) is not mentioned. While he most definitely has the more prominent role of the two, the issue is suspected to be one behind the sense with cancel culture. While Kahn is famously Laotian, just ask Cotton Hill, His voice actor Toby Huss is not of any form of Asian descent. With the recent recasting of characters like The Simpsons Apu getting major blowback, this may be seen as a topic of contention for the relaunch. Whether this means finding a different voice actor or simply not shining a light on the character until the show is running remains to be seen.

The Derailment of East Palestine at the Hands of Norfolk Southern Railway

On February 3rd, 2023, a tragic train derailment occurred in East Palestine, Ohio, resulting in extensive property damage and the contamination of the residents homes, local stores, and the cities water system. While accidents like this can occur due to a variety of factors, it is important to acknowledge the role that negligence and lack of safety measures can play in these incidents. In this case, it is reasonable to blame the Norfolk Southern Railway, which operates the train that derailed.

The derailment occurred around 9:30 PM, near the intersection of South Market and Alice Streets. The train, which was traveling eastbound, was carrying hazardous materials, including vinyl chloride and petroleum products. Several of the train cars derailed and caused a significant explosion and fire, which quickly spread to nearby buildings and homes.

According to eyewitnesses, the train was traveling at a high speed at the time of the derailment. This raises concerns about whether the train was being operated safely and whether the railway company had taken appropriate measures to ensure the safety of their workers and the community at large. In addition, it is also being reported that Norfolk Southern has a history of safety violations and previous accidents in the area.

Some local residents are raising questions about the railway’s emergency response procedures. It is reported that the railway company took several days to respond to the incident and provide support to the affected community. This delay in response may have contributed to the severity of the damages and the number of potential casualties.

In the aftermath of the derailment, the local authorities have launched an investigation into the incident, and many are calling for accountability from Norfolk Southern Railway. While it is not yet clear what caused the derailment, it is clear that the railway company has a responsibility to take every possible precaution to ensure the safety of its workers and the surrounding community. This includes conducting regular safety inspections, ensuring that its employees are properly trained and equipped to handle hazardous materials, and implementing emergency response plans in the event of an accident.

This train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio was a devastating incident that has caused extensive damage to the community of East Palestine. While investigations are still ongoing, it is reasonable to place most of the blame on Norfolk Southern Railway for their role in the incident. Moving forward, it is essential that railway companies prioritize the safety of their workers and the communities they serve, and take the necessary steps to prevent such tragedies from occurring in the future.

CBW: Radio for Daze

The Daze joins the CBW Radio lineup this Friday on The Rock Revival.

The Daze are an up-and-coming local band from the outskirts of Cleveland who will make their radio debut this Friday, November 11th, 2022, during Style’s Rock Revival show on CBW Radio. The boys will be featured at 2:15pm eastern as this week’s Independent Spotlight showcasing their single Red Mark. Style got in touch with Eddie and RJ of The Daze to give a little more insight behind the band.

Who are The Daze?

When did The Daze come about and who are the members?

“The Daze was formed in mid-2020 during the pandemic by a group of high school friends.
The current lineup consists of Eddie Grier on Vocals and Guitar, RJ Beall on Guitar and
Bass, and Basil Johnson on drums.”

How would you describe your sound?

“Our sound is a mix of Alternative Rock, Garage Rock with hints of Indie and punk.”

Who have been your biggest influences thus far?

“We are big fans of the grunge scene, bands like Alice In Chains and Nirvana, but also dig
the bands that expanded their sound in drop tuning like Helmet and Silverchair, and the
bands that added more catchy hooks like Oasis and The Vines.”

What went into writing Red Mark?

(Eddie) “Well, it’s the first song I ever wrote intended for a band to play. I was really into the
whole Garage Rock genre of the early 2000’s and tried to write something like The White Stripes or The Hives or The Vines. It’s a quick, catchy little tune that I thought would
be perfect to drop as a single.”

What does it mean to be showcased on CBW Radio?

(RJ) “It means a lot, for sure. This is our first time being showcased on a station, and it
shows that our hard work is paying off not only in writing and recording, but playing live and
spreading the word of The Daze.”
(Eddie) “We’ve had these songs (and a lot more) brewing for a while. So to see it released
for anyone to listen to is really cool. And to watch these songs being picked up and
shared really helps us keep pushing.”

Where else can we find your music?

“You can find our Red Mark EP on any and all streaming platforms. This includes Spotify,
Apple Music, YouTube, Amazon Music, Tiktok I think, and more!
You can watch the music video for Red Mark on our channel as well.”

What’s next for The Daze?

“This year will be our 2nd time competing in the annual TRi-C High School Rock Off at the
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in February. We teamed up with Eleventh Records out of
Cleveland to re-issue our EP on CD so we’ll have physical copies to sell soon as well. On
top of that, we are currently recording our debut album which is set to release in early 2023.

We plan on playing more shows and you can come to see us on December 9th at the Outpost in Kent, Ohio. All proceeds of that show are being donated to Toys 4 Totz.

Be sure to catch The Daze this Friday on The Rock Revival as well as going forward on CBW Radio!

The Man They Call Moon

Eli Moon is the latest local artist to find his way to CBW’s Independent Spotlight.

Eli Moon is a local artist from Cleveland Ohio who made his CBW Radio debut on October 14th, 2022 with his single High Prices. The song was featured on The Rock Revival’s weekly Independent Spotlight segment which highlights local, independent, and underrated artists. Show host, Style, got together with Moon to dive a little deeper into his music and career.

Who Is Moon?

When did you begin making music?

“I began making music in 2018, a few years after just messing around in a previous friend’s home studio. A few buddies of mine were starting to create music and I really wanted to try my hand at it. I started recording at Signal Flow Studios and releasing music on SoundCloud. It took me a few years to get my music to all streaming platforms. There are actually two projects, “Phases of The Moon and “Conversations Held While No One’s Around, that are exclusively on SoundCloud.”

How would you describe your sound?

“When I first began making music, I was strictly rapping. I didn’t believe in my own voice to sing so I stuck with rap. As I started working with my brother NARR8R, I began to push myself to explore new avenues about my creativity as an artist. I started to sing more and released a single made for my girlfriend titled “Skyla” to highlight my album “Moon & Sky”. It was there I realized that I wanted to incorporate all genres of music into my arsenal.

I’ve gone from “Rocky Road R&B”, which is sweet R&B with a crunch, to pop and alternative music. I feel like every song in my entire collection of music has a different sound to it. I don’t like being stuck in a box and embrace new challenges so I’m always trying something different”

Who have been your biggest musical influences?

“From the mainstream, artists that have influenced me are Mac Miller, Frank Ocean, Chance The Rapper and Tyler, The Creator. I feel like all four of those artists embraced their inner creative side and let everything hang out emotion-wise for the audience. Lyricism with a bit of an edge has been something that’s always drawn me into music and I think that’s reflected in my own music.”

What went into High Prices?

“So at the time I was working two jobs and saving up a lot of my money for my next projects. I decided I wanted to get a feature from a known artist in Cleveland. I ended up paying a $500 deposit and then after that everything became complicated. The feature fell through, I never got my deposit back and High Prices was made the very next day. The song is a reflection of the music industry in a way that a good amount of people aren’t interested in your talent unless your financial status matches that. I’m trying to pave a way for the artists that don’t always have the financial backing right away.”

What does it mean for you to be showcased on CBW Radio?

“It’s an honor to be featured on CBW Radio. Whenever I can speak on my journey and am graced with the opportunity to do so, it’s a blessing. I know you guys have been building something special here so it’s awesome to have Cleveland talent supporting Cleveland talent.”

Where else can listeners find your music?

“Anyone can find my music on all streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc). My Instagram is @themantheycallmoon and there’s a direct link in my bio to check out my music there as well. Here’s the link for easier access: https://linktr.ee/EliMoonMusic

What shows or projects can we look forward to in the near future?

“I actually just performed at The Odeon Lounge on October 1st with my brothers NARR8R, King Pala and Vyse. We are a tight-knit bunch known as “Family Ties”. As far as shows for the end of 2022, stay tuned on my social media pages to see what’s next. 

I really have been using this time recently to put together my next releases. I’m thinking maybe one more single this year and a project to begin 2023. Stay tuned, we’ll see! Much love and many blessings to everyone out there rocking with me, it means the world to me!”

We thank Moon for taking the time to give us a peek behind the process and look forward to what the future brings. High Prices can be heard on CBW Radio as part of our regular rotation or any of your favorite streaming services.

Do you even know your pants size?

We’ve all been there. You walk into a store, scan the racks and pull six different sizes of jeans, unsure of what really fits you, because, unlike men’s pants, women’s pants seem to be arbitrarily sized. 

Maybe at H&M you’re an 8. Maybe at Target you’re a 6. Maybe at Old Navy you’re a 4. Go into a new store and then you have to find out what size you are there too. It’s an endless, maddening cycle that can leave women confused as to what their bodies really look like.

Last week, 27-year-old Deena Shoemaker, a preteen and teen counselor in Kansas, decided to show off this infuriating predicament in a once viral and now removed Facebook Post.

The post itself, which in just one week has clocked over 80,000 shares and thousands of comments, shows Shoemaker in four different sizes of pants and six different styles, all of which fit. The sizes range from size 5 to a size 12. 

“As I was going through my clothes tonight I started to notice how dramatically different the size of all my pants were,” Shoemaker wrote. “And I have a real problem with the fact that my size 5 pants fit me THE EXACT SAME WAY that my size 12 pants do. Let me explain why I’m not happy, America.”

The problem, according to Shoemaker, is that these varying sizes can throw off the body image of a young girl, who has likely been told that it’s best to be the smallest size possible, and then goes into different stores and finds herself varying widely size to size, completely randomly. Really, of course, it’s the store’s sizes that are changing, not the girl.

It’s all a lie, but all girls don’t know that yet. 

“When you resize a girl’s pants from a 9 to a 16 and label it ‘plus size,’ how am I supposed to fight that?” Shoemaker wrote. “Photo manipulation is one thing but how do you expect me to convince her that the number printed inside her clothes is a lie too? How do you expect me to convince her that she doesn’t need to skip dinner for the next month because her pant size didn’t *actually* go up by seven digits?” 

“The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” famously had pants all women could fit into.

Because of how widely sizes differ across stores, for women’s pants sizes in particular, it can trigger certain women to be unhappy with their bodies.

“Stop telling my girls that a size 4 is the ‘ideal body size’ and the ‘epitome of beauty’ if you’re going to change a size 4 into an 8 or a 12 or whatever number you feel like on any given day,” Shoemaker wrote. 

At the end of her post, Shoemaker issues a call to the young women who, like her, have a range of sizes in their closets, and may feel insecure about that.

“My size 2 girls or my size 18 girls, your size doesn’t determine your beauty; your life does,” Shoemaker wrote. “The size printed inside your clothes is subjective to the fashion industry’s personal taste and it fluctuates rapidly. Stop believing the social normatives about who and what you should be.” 

“My daughters currently range as well depending who makes it. My oldest hates it. She ranges from a 5 to 12,” one woman wrote. Another: “I have size 4 to 12 in my closet and extra small to extra large. It all fits.”

Shoemaker’s is just the latest post about people being fed up with women’s sizes that’s gone viral. In May, a man put on his girlfriend’s clothing and went on a rant about how wrong it is that a size XL was so small. The problem was less about the clothes themselves, and more about how women view themselves as a result.

So obviously, Shoemaker isn’t alone in her fury here.

Now, if only clothing stores and brands could be just as mad too.
