Pink Goes to Hollywood! Why? TO GET AN AMBURGHEIR? GET IT! STEVE MARTIN! Yes, take this game and pair it with Steve Martin’s 2006 version of The Pink Panther. We roll in strong with talk of the latest shows and anime we’ve watched, stroll into Ian’s Horror Hole then do a pretty deep break down of the movie before jumping into the game talk. Lots of trivia and movie facts abound here. If you like the 60s Pink Panther, the 2000s version, the 90s cartoon or more – then you may find a little place here while we cover Pink Goes to Hollywood!

Ep. 794 – Toy Story

Toy Story is a true tale of gripping mythical science on the autonomy of spirit, the self-actualization of non-human entities, and the rules of engagement they have pre-conceived as a survival mechanism against a more dominant society of war-like god beings known as “the humans.” Or something like that. I saw the movie a long time ago. Come listen to us talk about it, the rules that govern it’s existence, and even more about the SNES game about it! We talk about some anime first, a few games, a few movies, and even try to latest round of sour candy. Some please, come sit and enjoy a podcast all about Toy Story (and a little about Cars and how it makes us feel.)

Ep. 793 – Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast. It’s a podcasting tale as old as time (well, 12 years at least). We are nearing the end of the SNES movie games list so the time has come to discuss both the game and the movie for Beauty and the Beast. We just had to bring on our foremost Beastologist, Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley, to give zero insight into this movie since he has never seen it. That’s how much we love him. So please, come hang out with us while we talk a bit about kidney stones, horror movies and all the iterations of this story. Please, sit awhile and listen to this podcast about Beauty and the Beast!

Greetings, travelers! This week on TADPOG, we’re journeying into Middle-earth with a pairing of Peter Jackson’s The Fellowship of the Ring movie and the SNES game J.R.R.

Come listen to us explore the film, critique the game, and decide which version of Middle-earth we’d rather adventure in! J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings Vol. I finally hits our shores in both movie and game form. Also, someone pops in at the end of the episode.

Ep. 790 – Timecop

Timecop! That’s right, it’s all one word so say it quickly. Does this SNES game look like the 1994 Jean Claude Van Damme? No? Well, we assure you that is the movie that it’s based on. Although it turns out the game is actually a SEQUEL to Timecop. So you needed more of that movie? Here you go! Of course, we being on the internet’s foremost Van Dammologist – Sandwich Pope Phil Hawkins! We discuss some movies, some anime, a few other games, then roll right into the deep dive of Timecop the movie and the SNES game. So please, Damme it, sit awhile and listen!

So come please, come sit awhile and listen to us break down this down along with a few anime. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVE!
