Ep. 789 – A Nightmare on Elm Street

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

A Nightmare on Elm Street (with some Nightmare on Elm Street 2 and 3 sprinkled in) slashes its way into the TADPOG studios! We start of with some anime talk, some video game chat, some sampling of very expensive ham and sour candies, then we roll into strong to the movie talk on A Nightmare on Elm Street and follow it up with some equally deep talk about the NES version of the game. So if you’re a horror fan on both on the big screen and the small home screen that displays the 8 bit version of the movie as a video game then OH BOY do we have a treat for you. So please, stay awhile and listen!

Ep. 788 – Hudson Hawk

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Hudson Hawk arrived on TADPOG shores…hauled to from from the lowest depths by our very own Wizened Sage Ian. All three of us sat down, spent money to rent it, and watched the 1991 Bruce Willis box office bomb (it killed a studio) and receiver of 3 Razzie awards (nominated for 5) Hudson Hawk. Of course, this has its very own very late NES release. So not only do we get the full Hawk, we play this marvel of game as well. So if you want some real Hudson Hawk double dose chat, – oh boy do we have an episode for you. So please, don’t let our pain be for nothing. Come sit awhile and listen to this episode over Hudson Hawk!

Ep. 784 – Snow White: Happily Ever After

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Snow White: Happily Ever After – you ever heard of this? So the kings of cheap, quickly produced animation, Filmation, produced their own non-Disney sequel to Snow White where she and a squad of girls save the prince this time around. It’s a pretty wild movie. So wild we have to bring on TADPOG IT to parse though it. Jon Turley makes his grand return. So we talk about the movie, the insanity that is Filmation, this SNES game. Why they made an SNES game of this, we don’t quite understand. But hey, it was a fun discussion. So please, come sit awhile and listen to Snow White: Happily Ever After!

Ep. 783 – The Pagemaster

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Pagemaster swashbuckles, flies, and…limps its way to TADPOG shores. We’re all fans of Macaulay Culkin here but this movie slipped past both Tyler and Dave and the game eluded all 3 hosts. So it’s a deep dive into both the movie and the game yet again. Some powerful opinions all around. To describe the plot of the movie poorly – “A boy suffers a concussion and gain the courage to attempt dangerous bike stunts without a helmet.” So there is that, talk of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, a blind draft of child actors, and more. So please, won’t you stay awhile and listen?

Ep. 781 – “Outlander” for the SNES or “Mad Max 2: Legally Distinct Edition”

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Outlander. So here is the thing, this is the Mad Max 2 game for SNES. Why isn’t it called Mad Max? Reasons. Outlander. Licensing. All that jazz. The important part is that there was a Max Max 2: The Road Warrior for SNES but it ended up being called Outlander. Of course there are tons of other things called Outlander. So many other things I would have rather this game been called Crazy Carl or Nutty Nathaniel. ANYWAY. We get to talk about Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior! And also the stuff about this game. So please, sit awhile and listen us review and an amazing movie and a game that falls all over the spectrum for us! Outlander. There is also a draft. You like drafts, right? We do. We hope you do too.

Ep. 780 – The Rocketeer

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Rocketeer figuratively rockets onto TADPOG shores (and directly into into a garbage can that we keep there). We continue our long running series yet again where we watch the movie and play the game. We take a deep dive into this movie for a nice little review and then hop skip and jump onto the straight up dumpster fire that is the game. Really, we don’t even want to be coy with this like maybe we liked or maybe we didn’t and you’ll have to tune in and see. This game blows goats. It’s truly terrible. But come sit and while and let us tell you why! The Rocketeer!

Batman Returns! Seriously, we’ve done Batman games before and now we are doing another one so he’s totally returning. But its better than that, it’s all the second and final Tim Burton Batman movie! We are pretty ready to talk about this one so we cut to the chase pretty quickly with plenty of talk about the movie in depth then have quite a bit to say about the game. We also have Uncrustables.
