It’s time for another episode of The
Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio
show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can
subscribe for free in iTunes by following
this link.
It’s a loose, fun, freewheelin’
grab-bag style episode on the show this week, as we talk about a whole host of
recent movies, games, and TV shows. Jonathan reviews Ava DuVernay’s very good
(and very undervalued) A Wrinkle in Time and
the mostly disappointing Tomb Raider adaptation,
which leads to a great discussion about the 25-year-history of video game
adaptations failing spectacularly in Hollywood. Sean reviews the new season of The X-Files after its recent finale and talks
about the outstanding final run of Dragon
Ball Super. And finally, we review several recent video games, including
Sean’s thoughts on Burnout Paradise
Remastered and Jonathan’s first impressions of Detective Pikachu and overall thoughts on Kirby Star Allies. It’s a jam-packed episode full of fun topics
that was a blast to record, and we think you’ll feel the same.
Enjoy!
