35 years ago, Steven Spielberg took us on an adventure to the mythical Neverland, and children loved it. It was full of wonder and great performances from some heavy hitters of the time, Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Maggie Smith, Bob Hoskins and more. All these years later on the 35th birthday of our host, we've decided to grab our pixie dust and fly high with the amazing  ⁨@OfficialJoeyC⁩   to see why it seems to be the product of negativity. Why, after 35 years it seems to be the black cloud in the bright sky that is Steven Spielberg's career. It's time to BANGARANG, this week on the Dissect That Film Podcast #podcast #hook  #peterpan  #moviepodcast  #stevenspielberg #robinwilliams

Parker and Mikey return to the island of the killer shrews to help find Dan and Angela, but also to ask the simple question, why does this movie exist?

30 years ago, a board game from the darkest wilds took us on an adventure.

JUMANJI was just a simple book about a couple of kids who find a board game that does magical things. In 1995, legend of comedy Robin Williams, along with director Joe Johnston brought that book to life. With state of the art effects, unforgettable production design, character acting, and a rare subdued performance by Williams, does JUMANJI still bring that same magic it did all of those years ago? Logan from  @videovillaentertainment  joins us to play the game you may never come back from.

EPISODE 241: This week on the podcast, we continue the 40th anniversary of Transformers first animated film by dissecting it's latest.

TRANSFORMERS ONE is the franchises animated return to the big screen since it's 1986 counterpart. With that though came issues, from terrible trailers, to just poor marketing, which left it in a tough spot. As an origin story for some of the most iconic characters of the franchise, is it one of the best entries since the original? Paul from The Flicks and Friends Podcast joins us to break it all down.

After the success of Jaws in 1975, many production companies wanted to dip their hand in the honeypot, with that came one of the first "rip-offs" with 1976's GRIZZLY. With it being the first, is it also one of the best to rip-off the Jaws formula? Did it need more fake bear? We discuss that and more this week on THE MONSTER ZONE.

The Wheel of Monsters has spoken, and this week we look at a remake that's been forgotten to time, medieval time! We dive into the remake of the 1985 North Korean monster movie Pulgasari, 1996's GALGAMETH. From it's too good to be true origins, to the legendary people behind it, is it one of the weirdest remakes to grace the silver screen? Let grab our swords and shields and attack this long forgotten film head on, on this episode of THE MONSTER ZONE!

Over the last 3 years we have seen many monsters, seen how they begin and how they end. But, what if they all came back and battled it out to become the CHAMPION OF MONSTERS! Well, that's what the Monster Royale is all about, pitting them against each other to see who takes home the crown. 

Let the ROYALE begin!

EPISODE 239: The Month of Dan concludes with a return to the world of Gundam with the first movie brought to the franchise, 1981's MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 1.

With a show that wasn't doing well, what do you do? Well, maybe combining episodes into a 3-part movie series will do the trick. That's what Mobile Suit Gundam did in the early 80's to save a new franchise from going under? Did it work? I mean, I feel that's a pretty easy question to answer. But, does this introduction of Gundam still hold up 45 years later. Dan and his son Victor are going to teach Parker a thing or two, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.

The Month of Dan continues with Dan's first MONTH OF ACTION pick, 1995's GUNSMITH CATS.

From the pages of the hit Manga, to the small screen as a 4-part series then combined OVA, this is as close to an American action movie that you'll get from the world of anime. From the American muscle car, to the fact firearms are a major play, government corruption and foreign assassins', how does this not play into the month designated for ACTION! Is it underappreciated in the vast world of anime?  Lets find out, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.

After the success of THE GRINCH, Hollywood wanted more live-action Seuss adaptations. With that we got 2003's THE CAT IN THE HAT. 

With production designer Bo Welch at the helm and comedy superstar Mike Myers in the lead, why did this one fall apart? Why haven't we gotten another live-action adaptation since? Well, I think it's time to put on our big hat and talk a lot about that, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.

It's a rarity to get two Friday the 13th's in a row, but here we are with the 5th entry in this iconic slasher franchise, A NEW BEGINNING. John from @deweypodmonster  joins us to dissect what may be the sleaziest entry. From a director who primarily worked in adult entertainment, to a time jump that seems out of place, to the fact that our main slasher may not be who he says he is. It's time for another bloody day at the lake, so let's dive into this and more this week on the Dissect That Film Podcast #229. #fridaythe13th #80smovies #80shorror #slasher #moviepodcast #moviebreakdown

THE VAULT IS OPEN AGAIN, and we are reaching in to unveil our first ever conversation about the kaiju turtle, with 1966's GAMERA VS. BARUGON. 

Barugon became Gamera's first foe and then disappeared, but with his short stay brought so much color, more like a taste of a rainbow. 

Is this one of the best Gamera sequels of the Showa era? Or is it as forgotten as Barugon? Lets figure it out, this week on THE MONSTER ZONE!

Lets find out, this week, on the Dissect That Film Podcast.
