122 - Ghost in the Shell with Johnie Powers We knew going into this movie the conversation would be a fun one. We were not wrong. On the surface, Ghost in the Shell is an action-packed movie about an elite squad taking down a terrorist. But below the surface (or inside the shell) it is a story about identity, and what it means to be alive. Joining us to discuss this anime masterpiece is Johnie Powers. She has a love for anime that demanded she come on the show, and we’re glad she did. Ghost in the Shell will hopefully entertain you, but also leave you with a lot to think about.   Johnie Powers Austin Powers Minute   Our next movie review - Tank Girl  Discuss the episode over at the Facebook group: The Reel Comic Heroes League of Citizens Twitter | Instagram | Website   Music from https://filmmusic.io: "Prelude and Action" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) Licence: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)   Music from https://filmmusic.io: "Deep Haze" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.c

121 - Richie Rich with Dave Pallas & Niall McGowan This episode was supposed to be Ghost in the Shell until frequent interrupter, Dave Pallas hacked into the feed, and took over the show.

Dave took over hosting duties of this episode and brought along another friend of the show, Niall McGowan to keep the show running smoothly.    Dave Pallas 5 Minutes of Mystery   Niall McGowan BatMinute   Our next movie review - Ghost in the Shell (for real this time) Discuss the episode over at the Facebook group: The Reel Comic Heroes League of Citizens Twitter | Instagram | Website Music from https://filmmusic.io: "Prelude and Action" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) Licence: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)   Music from https://filmmusic.io: "Deep Haze" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) Licence: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org

Part Johnie. Part Jonathan. Part Travis. Part Patrick. Together, It’s Clobberin’ Time! This is one of those movies where the story behind the movie is more interesting than the movie itself. Before you listen to the episode, we absolutely recommend that you not only watch Roger Corman’s unreleased The Fantastic Four, but you also watch the documentary: Doomed! The Untold Story of Roger Corman’s The Fantastic Four. Links to both films below. The movie has a reputation for being a terrible film, but the documentary may give you some perspective that will change how you feel about The Fantastic Four. Joining us for this odd adventure are Johnie Powers of Austin Powers Minute fame, and Jonathan Howell who’s mandate is to cover both Mission: Impossible and Fast and the Furious franchises various lengths at a time.   Roger Corman’s The Fantastic Four full version on YouTube Doomed!
