Episode notes
Jack feels that some films just come out at the wrong place and time. They're overlooked or overshadowed by a similar film released weeks apart or maybe they get a more successful remake... maybe they even get a TV series. It almost feels like you need an excuse to watch these films when the "superior" version exists... Or something like that. Ask Jack for more details... we're doing overshadowed films.
Des pulls a classic example of an overshadowed film and even has the stats to back it up. EDtv did not smash the box office and this may be because it switched markting tactics to compete with The Truman Show. Could this have done better? Let's get some FUD opinions!
As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.
