Video Games: The Movie: The Podcast

This month's movie is the third Pokemon movie! The one with Entei in it, being a dad! This film, released at the tail end of the late 90s pokemon zeitgeist, is definitionally a three-star banger with it's excellent visuals and great concepts but questionable script. They even made Brock enjoyable! Still, a lot of this movie feels very first draft between it's pacing, it's redundant plot details, and Team Rocket's seemingly meaningless inclusion beyond a sense of marketing obligation.

This month's movie is Blue Core Studio's Mega Man fan film. What can a bunch of aspiring amateur filmmakers with intimate knowledge of the Mega Man series make? Not an action film, that's for sure.

This month's movie is the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie! The sword of Damocles that has been hanging over this podcast since the beginning. For Dan, this was wasted potential held back by needing to be an Illumination film. For Maxie, this was an infuriating display of corporate branding that expects you to clap when you see it. Did we need Chris Pratt that badly? Was it really necessary to waste Holding Out For A Hero on a training montage? Did Jack Black singing the word "peaches" over and over again really get radio play?

This month's movie is Resident Evil: Extinction! In the time since the last movie, the entire world has become a desert wasteland to a bizarre and unparalleled degree! Milla Jovavich is going to have to be as cool and badass as possible in order to defeat Umbrella(?) and Paul W.S. Anderson is going to have to extract as much visual inspiration from his favorite movies without incorporating any of their meaning! What we're really asking though is: how has everyone managed to avoid dying of thirst?

In July of 2023, just a few weeks before SAG-AFTRA asked podcasters to refrain from discussing struck work, we recorded an episode on the Tomb Raider movie. With the strike over and ending on good terms, we felt it appropriate to finally release this episode to the public. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider is a peak 2001 (pre-9/11) movie in which Angelina Jolie is an adventurer seeking to acquire ancient artifacts said to being the key to controlling the flow of time. Up against her are the Iluminatii and her rival, played by a pre-Bond Daniel Craig.
