It’s Good, Except It Sucks is a movie by movie – and television series by television series – hurtle through the Marvel Cinematic Universe, hosted by Tim Worthington with a series of superpowered guests.

This time it’s Avengers: Infinity War from 2018, and joining Tim for a chat about Iron Man, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange re-enacting Three Men In A Boat in space is writer Martin Ruddock. What will they find to say about how many decimal points Loki is evil to, how much longer Iron Fist can make a film and whether Vision is afraid of telephone directories, and what does any of this have to do with Space Norman Tebbit? Get listening and find out!

Buy A Book!

You can find much more about my love of the less critically lauded corners of cinema, from Michael Caine and Elvis Presley movies to creaky old sci-fi and ‘Video Nasties’, in my book Can’t Help Thinking About Me, a collection of columns and features with a personal twist. Can’t Help Thinking About Me is available in paperback here or from the Kindle Store here.

Alternately, if you’re just feeling generous, you can buy me a coffee here. Make sure it’s sufficiently strong that Vision urges Wanda to ‘save’ herself.
