Hot off the press, straight from their segment on the mighty Radio NL 610 AM Morning Show, it's Jason and Shawn's one-on-one interview with writer/director Darren Lynn Bousman! Sure, you heard about four minutes of it on the morning news, but here's all 14 minutes for your listening pleasure.

Marvel's era on Netflix might rapidly be coming to an end, but at least it's going out with a bang with The Punisher's second season. I'd read early reviews, with some critics saying the show is unevenly paced and a bit on the slow side. Not sure what they were watching, or even smoking. This season is every bit as good as the first and, in some ways, better.

Only one major release this weekend, but it's a big one for movie fans as Universal unleashes it's much anticipated flick Glass. And Jason, Shawn and Howie are gonna let you know why it's such a big deal when the clock strikes 8:40 ish on this morning's Radio NL 610 AM Morning Show.

Although the relationship between Netflix and Marvel Studios is apparently on the outs, we're still going to get one more go-around with Frank Castle, AKA The Punisher, starting next Friday. For that, Shawn and I are thankful. Why? Well, the streaming service just dropped a new trailer for the hit show's second season, and it delivers everything one would expect from a TV series called The Punisher.

One last bit of news this fine New Year's Day, and it's a good one for fans of Netflix and Marvel's The Punisher. We only gotta wait two weeks for Season 2!

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the envy of rival studios everywhere. This well crafted, and plotted, run of quality films IS the world of Marvel Comics realized on screen, and a true legacy to Marvel creator Stan Lee. The box-office goldmine comes with a price, as before Iron Man and Robert Downey Jr. there was a long line of failed attempts to bring Marvel characters to the big screen.

Alright, the weekend is upon us and everyone's focused on some well-deserved R and R, and probably a liquor drink or six. But before we let you go -- at least until the next episode drops on Sunday -- we've got a few news items for your eye and ear holes. First up, how about that teaser for Netflix and Marvel's The Punisher that debuted at the tail end of The Defenders?

I don't binge TV. It's not that I don't find shows I enjoy, but I just don't have the time. However, in the case of Daredevil Season Two, I couldn't help myself. The end of each episode compelled me to continue to the next, moving from one to the other like one of The Punisher's bullets hitting its target. There's not much I can add to my thoughts on this season that I didn't write about in my review of the first six episodes , but that doesn't reflect the quality of the season's second half. Not by a long shot.

This will be a short and sweet, spoiler-free roundup of the first half (ish) of Marvel and Netflix's second season of Daredevil. It's great. 'Nuff said. Just kidding.

The last trailer for Daredevil's second season was all about Jon Bernthal's The Punisher. Now, just weeks before the show returns to Netflix, we've got a good look at The Man Without Fear's mysterious lady love, Elektra. Elektra is brought to life by Elodie Yung, and I am impressed. I shouldn't be surprised by this. So far the brains behind Marvel's Daredevil have knocked everything out of the park, in my opinion. And this is the opinion of a lifelong DD fan.

No sir. This trailer, which gives us a whole lot of The Punisher and a boat load of action, is the real deal. It's awesome! Pure awesome. And, for the first time ever, I think I'm truly excited to see The Punisher on screen. Don't get me wrong, I found something to enjoy in every big-screen adaptation of the character.

UPDATED! Marvel officially announced today (Thursday, Jan. 7)  that Daredevil Season 2 will launch on Friday, March 18. That's one week before Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. And I will still pick it over the DC flick any day! And now the original story: The wait is over for fans of Marvel's Daredevil series on Netflix. Kinda. In the sense that we now know when Season 2 debuts on the streaming services. And Marvel is showing some stones by releasing it against one of the year's most anticipated movies.

For the latest edition of Trailer Rewind I'm taking a look back at the second movie featuring Marvel Comics' violence-prone vigilante -- The Punisher. The Dolph Lundgren version from 1989 is a hard-to-find action classic that played nowhere. So when it was announced that a new film was being made starring Thomas Jane, a dude known for his acting chops, people got excited. Then the masses saw the flick and . . . yeah. Let's take a look at how it was sold and how it turned out, from The Basement's perspective. The Trailer: From the opening country song to the line "You shouldn't play with knives," this has cool written all over it, at least if you're a fan of 80s action/exploitation movies. This was the second trailer for the film. The less said about the first the better. That one was a poorly edited mess that screamed bad B-movie. This one has Jane kicking ass, guns by the boatload, lots of straight-up action, and the hotness of Rebecca Romijn....
