Interviste comiche Critiche cinematografiche

Donkey Kong 64: Expansion pack (ft. Campbell Winslow)

We've come full circle! In anticipation of a NEW #D Donkey Kong (soon on Switch 2), Campbell is back to talk about Nintendo's OTHER 3D platformer for the 64. Did it work? well, no, but WHY is worth exploring. Plus: Why is there a switch 2, anyways? Check out our original, restored Donkey Kong Country Episode (still among our best) at the top of the feed. Do not check out the donkey Kong TV show

Amores Perros (ft. Yvan Iturriaga)

Yvan is back to talk about famous street dogs, triptychs, and a real loser of a hitman. No dogs were harmed in the making of this podcast.

28 Days Later (Ft. Paul James Houghton)

Sage and Gavin wake up naked in a hospital. Something feels off. Lonely. Rabid. Worst of all, they're in London. What is the appropriate speed for a zombie? Did this movie really need to be shot on digital? How many of these are they going to make, anyway?

Brick (Ft. Prof. Julian Hoxter)

Sage and Gavin aren't strangers to the underbelly of screenwriting, but when their old buddy Rian johnson goes missing they need to start kicking trees and see what falls out. First up is Professor Julian Hoxter, who seem almost too willing to talk... ...About Rian johnson's directorial debut, 2005's Brick! (starring Joseph Gordon Levitt) What makes good storytelling? What makes a good character? Is the answer to both...shoes? Dig deeper into the mystery by looking at Julian Hoxter's numerous books including "Write what you don't know" wherever fine books are sold.

Turtles Forever: the original multiverse cartoon (ft. Paula Cizek)

On a very existential episode of is This Still Good, Paula returns to talk about the 2009 TMNT crossover that everyone forgot about, living in Arnold Schwarzenegger's house, and how no one would even notice the turtles in NYC. Plus: is free Will an illusion?

The Faculty (ft. Adam Boyer)

Elijah Wood month continues! Adam Boyer swings by the podcast again to talk Robert Rodriguez's 1998 "The Faculty"! But... to level with you... he's not quite acting himself. He keeps refusing to do our homemade drugs we stash in ball point pens. We're pretty sure he's either an Alien or an undercover cop.

Green Street Hooligans: dont call it soccer (ft. Paul James Houghton and Atlas Azure)

Some brits drop by Gavin's apartment to ask the question on everyone's mind: is Gavin a f*ckin Journo?

The Castle of Cagliostro: it's san Marino, right? (Ft. Seamus Calder)

Sage and Gavin decide to enlist the help of gentleman thief Seamus Calder for one of this summer's greatest capers, stealing the declaration of independence. Wait that's the wrong movie... This time we're talking Miyazaki's feature debut The Castle of Cagliostro. Before Ghibli, after Nemo, there was Monkey Punch's Lupin III! If you want to see this movie catch it on the internet archives at: https://archive.org/details/lupin-iii-castle-of-cagliostro-redub The dub Gavin wanted everyone to watch!

Snow White & the Hunstman

Lord of the Rings. Chronicles of Narnia. Gladiator. Princess Mononoke. What do all these movies have in common? They're all shamelessly ripped off in 2012's extremely cynical Snow White & The Huntsman. How important is a script, anyway. Is there a haircut that says "I might f*ck my sister?" Plus: what's the Huntsman's name, anyway?

Step Up 3D (Ft. Garrett Jutte)

Sage makes Gavin watch a perfect movie.
