Dungeons and Dragons- A You and Me Conversation 

This time we're delving into the 2011 British miniseries Neverland. A sort of prequel to Peter Pan. It has some familiar faces, some unfamiliar faces, and some faces Melinda failed to recognize for a very long time. 

Grab your mystical multi-dimensional transporting crystal orbs and let's go!

Neverland- Jimmy....is James

For us, this movie is simply everything. It's fundamental to our development as human beings. This is not an episode for critique, this is an episode for love. 

As you wish...

The Princess Bride- Warm Soup on a Cold Day

There can only be one...episode about this movie.  This movie was wiggy and wild, but one thing you can't deny, it's interesting to look at. Even when it doesn't make sense, it's something to see. We had a lot of questions about this one.

Highlander- Quite Stronge

We are so dedicated to our craft that we went to see this one on the Big Screen and wow, it was a visual treat. This 80's cult classic has everything you could want in a film, assuming what you want is glitter. 

Let's all go to the forest

Legend- More Glitter!!

One man's quest to solve the problem of death so his wife can live forever. Despite what she actually wants. 

This movie is full of poetic imagery and asks a lot of big questions and doesn't provide all the answers. And no, it's not sci-fi just because there's a laboratory and a dude floating through space. So let's just get that straight.

The Fountain- Branches, Roots, Whatever

Greetings and welcome to our new season all about FANTASY! We are kicking it off with a film that shows us a world where men are building a new kind of world, and women...are also present. 

This movie has all the gorgeous plate armor you could ever want to see and stunning costumes that don't seem to realize they are blending a late 70's aesthetic into a medieval world. 

Join us! At this Round Table!!

**please note that there is some discussion of sexual assault in this episode because it's in the movie.

Excalibur- Disco Medieval

Super Mario Bros- LIVE FROM PAX EAST

The time has come. Like all things, eventually Franken-summer had to end. And so we leave you with this film- a classic coming-of-age tale about a simple girl. She's just figuring out who she is while on a bit of a murder spree to revitalize the corpse of a victorian dude that gets accidentally resurrected. We've all been there!!!

 It has to be seen to be believed, so we recommend you see it.

Lisa Frankenstein 

Welcome to 1985- the hair is big and the celebs are bigger! We've got Sting and Jennifer Beals starring in this movie that *thinks* it's a feminist retelling of the Bride of Frankenstein. Join us as we examine those merits and spend more time talking about hair and skin than clothes to be quite honest.
