The Defenders (2017) - Andy Miller joins Tim Worthington for a chat about The Punisher resolutely failing to turn up whenever anyone could actually have done with his help in It's Good, Except It Sucks - a movie by movie - and television series by television series - hurtle through the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

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 The Defenders from 2017, and joining Tim for a chat about The Punisher resolutely failing to turn up whenever anyone could actually have done with his help is writer Andy Miller. What will they find to say about Frank Castle putting his address down as ‘some rooftops’, how useful Crosby, Stills, Nash And Young would be against The Hand and the optimal defensive pose to assume when confronted by both militant Iron Fist deniers and hardliners, and what does any of this have to do with Sacha Dhawan auditioning for The Monkees?

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.
