Vin Diesel returns to the podcast to talk guns and ships, and so the balance shifts. Johnny prepares for a holiday by watching a modern childrens’ classic, Andrew coming back from holidays trying to remember film information, and also a nice tangent on Space Jam, because it’s always gonna be a part of us now.
258 - DISNEY'S ROBIN HOOD
Second go around with the legend of Robin Hood and this time it’s Disney’s crime to answer for, stealing from The Jungle Book to give to the poor, animation-wise. We take a dive into the formation of furries, and other cultures over the recent generations, discuss who could voice the live action-ish redux, and if Robin Hood is capable of being a cinematic adventure at any point.
250 - HIGHLANDER II: THE QUICKENING - RENEGADE CUT
It’s EPISODE 250 and Johnny’s dream from 150 episodes ago is finally coming true. Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod is on the podcast as we watch the extended, and only-available, cut of Highlander’s infamous sequel. Will Andrew take to a second film to a franchise he doesn’t care for? Will Johnny’s nostalgia be busted by a new look and a different edit? Will Queen create a whole new soundtrack using Christopher Lambert’s chuckle? What kind of party would it be without Michael Ironside anyway? Come for the sword fighting, stay forever because you’re an immortal human or alien or something.
249 - HAPPY GILMORE
Don’t you want to go home? Well, sports month goes home in Sandman fashion, as we swing for the hockey-to-golf-player Adam Sandler classic, Johnny hasn’t gone into the 90s era of Sandler and Andrew is excited to revisit his youth with this one. The debate of Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler rages on, who will win?
248 - FIELD OF DREAMS
Kevin Costner hears a voice and turns his farm into a baseball diamond. You hear voices and listen to a podcast about Kevin Costner doing this. Normal behaviour. If you listen, he will come.
247 - BASEKETBALL
We’re getting psyched out by a multi-sport as we approach the release of the new Space Jam movie, and find ways to bring Sports Month in to some kind of relevance. Johnny has seen this film, but remembers nothing. Andrew has seen this film a lot, but doesn’t know how much holds up anymore. What will come of the players this week?
