Ep. 771 – Cutthroat Island

Cutthroat Island does a nose dive, really, a straight multi-million dollar tanking right into our studio courtesy of Son of Randomizer – the SNES movie game randomizer. So we talk about this very special and somewhat historical movie and it not quite as special or historical SNES game. But before that we recount Ian’s movies and game news of the week, hear about Dave’s Las Vegas trip, talk about Brandon of Axelay fame, then tear into the game/movie of the week. But hey, lots of stuff here so please. Come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 769 – Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is the latest in our SNES movie games series. So we dragged out the 1994 film alongside the game to get the full experience. Aaaand it was all quite the experience. This definitely falls into that category of, “Did the movie really need to be translated into a game?” So if you’re a fan of the film, we do quite a dive into it. If you haven’t played the game – who do you think you would control in it? If you’re a fan of anything Frankenstein, please come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 768 – Dennis the Menace

Dennis the Menace is back! In movie and video game form. European Listeners, this is a very different Dennis the Menace and the story is pretty odd (don’t worry, we get into it). We have a very special draft that ended up being one of our favorites that we have ever done then we dive head long into the 1993 classic movie…then we pivot into the game. Let’s going ahead and put it out there that the Angry Video Game Nerd dedicated a whole episode to just this particular SNES game. So please, sit awhile and listen to us go on about the menace know as Dennis here in the United States.

Ep. 765 – Lethal Weapon

Lethal Weapon brings all its…weapons…lethally to TADPOG shores. You see Joe Pesci up there? But it says Lethal Weapon when clearly he is a character from the sequel? Are you confused? Same here. We ended up watching the first movie but the game is actually over the sequel so just know that going into this one. We do a real Girth Brooks of a Famous Duos draft, we talk about Jim Lahey, leveling Scholar, and more. So please sit awhile and listen to this episode!

Ep. 764 – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition morphs into our hearts with our quick turn around. We had record another episode a few days after the last one, so sorry for the lack of movie tie in but we decided to finish up the last of the SNES Power Rangers games with this one. But before we talk about all the fighting, we talk about several listeners telling us their top 5 favorite episodes and why. If you’re a long time listener, you might enjoy it. So if you have liked the show for awhile and like Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition (and the great MMP universe) please, sit awhile and listen.

Ep. 763 – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie go go goes to this podcast with a simple roll a d20 courtesy of the mini-randomizer that only randomizes SNES movie games. We played the first Power Rangers game and that horrendous Mario Kart clone of a Power Rangers racing game with Zeo. Where does this game fall in that spectrum? We’ll get to that but first we break down the movie and were it’s release landed with us. Dave had a big week so we jump into that news, talk about some books (that may also include some Dark Tower talk) but there is plenty of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie talk to go around, so please sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 762 – An American Tail: Fievel Goes West

An American Tail: Fievel Goes West moseys on over courtesy the Movie Game Mini-Randomizer. We had all missed this movie and game as a kids even though we remember the marketing very well, say thankee. Since it’s about a mouse we have to have a fictional mouse draft, followed by some talk about the new Fallout show, Ian’s adventures in Overwatch 2 – including comments on the new character Venture. Baby Reindeer is something we expected to find in Urban Dictionary but we talk about it. Of course, there is Dark Tower talk as the three of us are about to complete reading the series. Finally, we do a deep dive into both the game and movie so if you like fictional movie mouse talk this is the episode for you. So please, come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 759 – Jurassic Park (SNES)

Jurassic Park finally dino DNA’s it’s way onto TADPOG shores. Sure, we have done Jurassic Park on the Genesis and The Chaos Continues AND The Lost World but somehow we completed missed the SNES version of the original Jurassic Park. Is it cool and shadowy like the Genesis? Can you play as the Raptor? STAY TUNED AND FIND OUT! (No, you can’t. It’s very very different). We also talk a lot of about the movie and what it meant to us as kids. We also do a deep dive into some random facts that are pretty interesting. So if you like all that sort of stuff, please sit awhile and listen!
