Things start off with the culmination of our Luc Besson Debt to Cinema chain, his long gestating, must see in 3D, comic book adaptation then segue into Christopher Nolan’s larger than life, humanistic war flick (20:30) and my horrible experience watching it. Next Steve tries to lighten the mood with A Ghost Story (46:50), Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, and Little Hours (49:10). Finally I dipped into the anime again with Food Wars (52:47) and Inuyasha (54:50) + my first impressions of my New Nintendo 3DS XL (57:38).

Debt to Cinema 078: A Guy Named Joe
With how common remakes/new adaptations are in today’s entertainment, we sometimes lose sight of the inspiration behind it all. Steve’s pick of the source for Steven Spielberg’s lesser seen Always (1989), is a hidden gem lost among the clouds featuring some of the stars of Hollywood’s Golden Age and a great message about letting go amidst World War II. I enjoyed my ride with Spencer Tracy so much, another first story outing featuring him will be coming next week.
Debt to Cinema 046: The Dirty Dozen
With DC’s “only bad guys can stop the real bad guys” movie coming this weekend, Steve thought it was only fitting for me to catch David Ayer’s admitted inspiration from 1967. Its a fun movie, especially for its length, but something is slightly off about it for me, listen in while I try to explain what that is while praising the ensemble cast.
