We have a group of friends. Each episode one of us subjects the others to a piece of media they find interesting, and we talk about it and try to make dumb jokes.
Merry (?) Christmas! The buds take on The Christmas That Almost Wasn't, the baffling 1966 American-Italian musical Christmas movie, complete with emo Santa, disturbing elves, and a scenery-chewing, cobweb-covered butler named Blossom.
The second half of our review of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, where we get into NANOMACHINES SON and read some of the bonkers reviews of the game that people have posted.
Ewen, Grant, and Char take on Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, the zany action spinoff of Metal Gear Solid where you play Raiden, a cyborg soldier on a mission to cut everything in sight into tiny pieces! In this episode we talk about some background stuff and cover the first half of the game, plus Grant has a quiz game for Char and Ewen.
This time around Ewen and Grant are joined by Char, who will be a regular co-host going forward. Char's pick for this episode is The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, a short adventure game that serves as a preview/demo for Life is Strange 2.
Ewen and Grant sat down and watched The Apple, a 1980 movie from The Cannon Group (you know, the guys behind Superman IV: The Quest for Peace), an attempt at a musical about showbiz and a muddled biblical allegory. It is so, so weird.
