Guardians of the Galaxy & Thor Ragnarok: Marvel’s Space Opera Revolution | SPACE OPERA Pt 23 with Tiffani Angus

This week, we’re thrilled to have Tiffani Angus, writer and half of the dynamic duo behind Spec Fic For Newbies, joining us as we plunge into the colorful world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We’re zeroing in on the space opera adventures of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) and Thor: Ragnarok (2017). Together, we’ll discuss the growing superhero fatigue, reflect on the MCU’s heyday, and unravel how the unexpected directorial choices of James Gunn and Taika Waititi played a key role in shaping the Marvel comedy/action formula we know today. Join us as we explore how these films breathed new life into the Space Opera genre within the MCU. Visit our website https://www.journeythroughscifi.com/ Email Us!
