Welcome to the 100th episode of For The Republic: A Love Letter to Star Wars Animation! Join Andrew (@StarlightAndrew), Donovan (@DonovanMeade) & Conor (@DepaBanana) as we celebrate our biggest milestone yet the same way we began - talking about The Clone Wars! We discuss the Zillo Beast arc of Season 2. Heavily inspired by Godzilla and kaiju stories, how does Star Wars put their own spin on the monster genre? With us getting to this arc after the Beast's return in The Bad Batch, how do those episodes improve this arc in hindsight? We also discuss the (at the time of recording, sorry) social media mania regarding the cancelled The Hunt for Ben Solo movie, and when we could see Adam Driver return as Ben Solo in the future.Thank you for journeying through Star Wars with us for 100 episodes!Episodes Discussed: "The Zillo Beast (S2E18).

Čím viac hláv, tým nebezpečnejší drak. Najprv príde trojhlavý, potom päťhlavý a nakoniec sedemhlavý. Teda aspoň tak to býva v našich rozprávkach. V Kórei sa ale nebezpečnosť draka meria podľa niečoho iného. Podľa pazúrov! Čím viac má drak pazúrov, tým horšie. Nedeľná Talkshow je tentokrát o nágoch, serpopardoch a áno, aj o Mushu z rozprávky Mulan. O dračích bytostiach porozprávala spoluautorka knihy Rod draka a výskumníčka z Ústavu orientalistiky Slovenskej akadémie vied Veronika Verešová.

In this episode, I spoke with author Thom Shubilla about his latest book "King Kong vs Godzilla -"The Most Colossal Conflict the Screen Has Ever Known". Popular culture in 1962 experienced many notable firsts. That year, The Beatles released their debut single “Love Me Do” in England, The Beach Boys first LP, Surfin' Safari, was stocked on record store shelves, The Rolling Stones played their first shows, Dr. No marked the opening James Bond adventure to hit theaters, Marvel Comics' “The Incredible Hulk” was splashed on the pages of comic books—and two of the greatest movie monsters, King Kong and Godzilla, clashed on the big screen.
Director Arthur Crabtree delves into the late 1950's world of atomic, Cold War, body-snatching paranoia except that he kind of… doesn't? Honestly this Canada-set, B-movie, Sci-fi, creature flick feels more like a proto-Cronenberg film where it really counts.

With the release of Absolute Batman #15 and the big reveal of Absolute Joker, we're excited to welcome artist Jockonto the show for the first time. We would consider this comic an event even without the gnarly origin story at its center. This is also a big reunion for the artist and his writer collaborator, Scott Snyder. They've been delivering killer Batman comics since The Black Mirror, and have already re-invented the Joker concept in The Batman Who Laughs. However, the Absolute Universe allows them to swing for the fences in a way that the main continuity never could. And, as you'll hear, this required a little recalibration from Jock. Thankfully, Jock grew up consuming some of the most radical comics on the planet, 2000 AD. These Mega-City One stories, often featuring the iconic Judge Dredd, shaped Jock's imagination and taught him the unique power of a visual narrative. They also revealed why we must never be too enamored of the characters and stories we adore. Conformity is abhorrent. Toys are meant to be broken because that's the direct result of good, continuous, serious play. If you keep them precious on the shelf, they get dusty and stiff. To understand characters like Batman and Judge Dredd, we must constantly redefine them, whittling them down to their defining characteristics. We discuss with Jock how he had to recalibrate his idea of Batman and Joker before taking on Absolute Batman #15. We talk about his new 2000 AD release, The Art of Judge Dredd by Jock. We examine how 2000 AD continues to influence his work, including Absolute Joker, and how he crafts certain two-page spreads in this comic. Absolute Batman #15 is out now from DC Comics. It's written by Scott Snyder, illustrated by Jock, colored by Frank Martin, and lettered by Clayton Cowles. You can continue this conversation with Jock by following him on Blue Skyand Instagram.

This Winter, from IDW Publishing, the Heroes in a Half-Shell take on the King of the Monsters! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Godzilla #1 crashes into comic shops on November 12th. Written by Godzilla Kei-Sei Scribe Tim Seeley and illustrated by the brilliant Turtle artist behind the Nightwatcher series, as well as the Stranger Things/TMNT crossover, Fero Pe, this new series finally brings two of our favorite franchises together. How can this reptilian miracle be? Long before the organization was corrupted by Shredder, the Foot Clan's original purpose was to save Japan from Kaiju! Now, in the present day, Godzilla and its fellow monsters have reappeared. Not only is the Foot not prepared to stop them…it would seem Shredder himself is behind the attacks! The Turtles are always crossing over into rad nerd realms, but this one might be the king crossover of them all.

More than just a kaiju film, this powerful entry explores postwar trauma, survivor's guilt, and grief—all wrapped in a terrifying return of Godzilla.

Hello, Kaiju Lovers! Nate and company reach the end of their world tour with a jump across "the Pond" to Mexico, where they cover Gareth Edwards' cult classic indie film, Monsters (2010). Mitch and Hayden from Entertain This! join him for the first time on MIFV to discuss the little-movie-that-could that got Hollywood's attention and led to Edwards later directing movies for not one, not two, but three franchises. Those being Godzilla (2014), Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and most recently, Jurassic World: Rebirth. Edwards is hands on in this film, "writing," directing, and even creating the special effects. His secret was using a story that's set "after the Spielberg movie," as he said. The Toku Topic veers into potentially controversial territory (and forces Nate to, for the first time ever, mention President Trump on the air) with a brief history of the U.S.-Mexico border wall. Such a wall is a key facet of Monsters' world, and it's a much older issue than you might know. For full shownotes, including a bibliography of sources, check out this episode's blog post on the MIFV website: http://monsterislandfilmvault.com/index.php/2025/12/05/episode-106-gareth-edwards-monsters-2010-vs-entertain-this-the-monster-island-world-tour/.

Nathan and Ryan return to the Heisei era with Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993), the movie that gives us an all-new Mechagodzilla, a kidnapped Baby Godzilla, and one very stressed-out Rodan. The hosts dig into why this entry feels like Toho trying to juggle a heartfelt custody battle with giant kaiju brawls, how the revamped Mechagodzilla might be the slickest design of the era, and why Baby Godzilla looks both adorable and vaguely cursed. It's metal-plated mayhem, beam-spam battles, and surprisingly tender monster parenting as the guys break down one of the strangest “sequels” in the franchise.

Sorry to inform you, friends, but it's December already. The gift-giving season is here, and with it, if you're at all like us, a month filled with tremendous anxiety. We may love putting together a Comic Book Holiday Gift Guide, but we stress profusely over the actual process of selecting and distributing gifts to our friends and family. Thankfully, just in time, we spoke with Mutts cartoonist Patrick McDonnell about his latest book, The Gift of Everything, which truly helped us center ourselves during a tumultuous moment. Patrick McDonnell is one of our great living cartoonists. For more than thirty years, he has put everything of himself into his comic strip Mutts. It's where he goes to understand the world around him, using characters like Mooch and Earl to contextualize what's happening outside his panels and inside his very being. Reading his work, you get the impression that he's figured something out that you have not, but is that actually the case? We get to the heart of everything in today's conversation. The Gift of Everything is out now from Little, Brown and Company. It's a spiritual sequel to McDonnell's The Gift of Nothing, which was published twenty years ago. It tells the desperate story of Mooch searching for the perfect gift for his pal Earl, and discovering exactly that, but not in the manner he expected.

Fortnite's wildest crossover ever, Samsung's tri-fold phone, and Red Dead Redemption on Netflix — all in one snowy night. This week on AwesomeCast 760, Michael Sorg (@Sorgatron), Katie “Dudders” Dudas, and Dave Podnar brave the Pittsburgh snow (plus the frozen tundra of Verona) to geek out over: Samsung's Galaxy Z Tri-Fold — a three-screen foldable that opens into a 10" tablet and costs about as much as a decent gaming PC. Is this the future of phones or just flex tech? Cloud gaming from the couch — Sorg uses OneCast, GeForce Now, and Xbox Cloud Gaming to turn an Apple TV and Chromecast into a console-free living room, streaming everything from Mortal Kombat 1 to Marvel's Midnight Suns. Netflix Games leveling up — from Red Dead Redemption (2010) going mobile-only on Netflix to a WWE 2K “Netflix Edition” and Stranger Things puzzle games trying to lure the 99% of subscribers who never touch the games tab. Marvel arcade goodness & Fortnite insanity — we punch through Marvel's Cosmic Invasion on Game Pass and recap Fortnite's giant event featuring Homer Simpson, Godzilla, Kong, Superman, Voltron, K-pop Demon Hunters, Kill Bill, Back to the Future and more. Weird future tech — Hideo Kojima's idea for a blood-scented floppy disk, BHaptics VR suits you can actually buy at Best Buy, and why we're both fascinated and slightly terrified. Shopping & robotaxis — Amazon's 30-minute delivery pilot in Seattle and Philly, Katie's Walmart turning into a gig-worker warehouse, and a Waymo robo-car that casually drives through an active LAPD stop. Plus: birthday love for long-time supporter John “Diggy” DeGore, vintage Star Wars comics, and interns Tony and Mac discovering just how weird tech can get.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 652 This episode Sam Drog returns as we discuss the new movie Predator: Badlands, but not before we give a recap of every Predator movie that has come before. It's an extensive look at the franchise as a whole and how things have changed since director Dan Trachtenberg has gotten involved. And as we try on the fashionable look of fishnets and a space helmet, we also mention… Cleaner, Elle Fanning, a jungle room night club, Weyland-Yutani, testosterone overdrive, Danny Glover, The Wendigo, Waterworld, John McTiernan, bro code, Godzilla characters, cooperation in building a society, Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi, the 1980s had us all spoiled, Daisy Ridley, building the mythology, Topher Grace, giant robot vs giant monster, Fred Dekker, filmmakers need to realize that they gotta up their game, Alien vs. Predator, the theme of cooperation, pace and direction, Dude Bro: The Movie, Last Action Hero, the Predator 3 that never was, Shane Black, a new perspective, appeasing AI creatures, kid giddiness, a Star Wars product, Predator 2, macho posturing, biological equivalents, G.I. Joe Versus the Man from Mars, feeding off the bad vibes, she just came out of a vat of butter, grab your CG monkey and get out there. Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers for "Predator: Badlands" along with pretty much all of the other Predator movies. "It was so nice having… character arcs in a Predator movie."

If you thought regular animals were cool, imagine them supersized, stomping through cities like they own the place. While we've got movies where monsters run wild, reality's a bit more down-to-earth. The thing is, our planet's got some rules – like a "size limit" that animals can't just break. It's like trying to stuff a skyscraper into your living room – it's just not gonna fit! So, as awesome as a Godzilla-sized critter would be, Mother Nature's got her own blueprint, and she's not giving out permits for supersized creatures. Learn more about your ad choices.

We've reached the end of the divisive anime trilogy with the even more divisive and maddening final entry -- a pure cosmic horror film where an extradimensional noncorporeal Ghidorah slaughters nearly everyone and gives Godzilla an hour-long hug. We talk about the Lovecraftian inspiration, this trilogy's horrendous treatment of women, the equally horrendous treatment of its human hero and the harmful message he leaves us with, and the ultimately squandered potential of these deeply mean-spirited movies.Please note that there is a frank discussion of suicide and other dark topics at various points in this episode.Cover art by: Doug!Part of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast CollectivePatreon | DiscordEmail: skreeonkpodcast@gmail.comTheme song: "BIO WARS - Synth Cover" by Kweer KaijuSources include: Godzilla: The First 70 Years by Steve Ryfle and Ed GodziszewskiWikizillaGigazine Interview with the creative team

Comics visionary Tom Scioli joins me for a wide-ranging, brain-melting conversation that jumps from classic TV to kaiju carnage to cosmic storytelling. If you know Tom's work — GØDLAND, Transformers vs. G.I. Joe, Fantastic Four: Grand Design — you already know he thinks bigger, weirder, and more ambitiously than almost anyone in comics. In this talk, we get into:• The Twilight Zone #2 From IDW and how Rod Serling's storytelling shapes Tom's approach to mythmaking• Godzilla Monsterpiece Theater from IDW as Tom pits the Kaiju against some lieterally giants • Space Opera Xanadax from Image as the purest form of comic-book imagination, and how Tom pushes the SF genre to its limits• His YouTube show Total Recall, where he digs into comics history, storytelling craft, and hidden TV and film gems with his trademark insight and enthusiasm Tom breaks down influences, process, philosophy, and the connective tissue between classic television, monster movies, and cosmic comics. It's equal parts film class, comics craft talk, and deep-fan celebration.

For this Thanksgiving-week DC Spotlight covering the books of November 26, 2025, Jace and Rocky tackle one of the biggest slates of the year and find a lively mix of event chaos, holiday charm, grounded character work, and absolute-universe bombast, even as they debate whether the buzz around the Absolute line and DC KO is starting to overshadow the strong "regular" DC books. They unpack how Superman #32 quietly becomes one of the most essential KO tie-ins by finally revealing how the villains escaped the Phantom Zone and entered the tournament; how Flash #27 and Justice League Unlimited provide fun but mixed connective tissue to KO; and how Christopher Condon's Green Arrow #30 delivers another emotional gut-punch of Ollie, Roy, and Lian's family drama as the run nears its end. They also spotlight the gritty precision of Gabriel Hardman's new Black Label debut Arcadia with Batman, Green Arrow, and the Question, revisit the escalating mystery in Immortal Legend: Batman, cheer on the kaiju spectacle of Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong, and take a surprisingly deep dive into the holiday anthology I Saw Ma Hunkel Kissing Santa Claus, praising the meta-hilarious Animal Man riff, the charming Supergirl/Brainiac 5 romance, and a Dr. Light/Atom story that may even seed future key elements. But the episode ultimately belongs to the Absolute Universe, with the guys debating what works in Absolute Wonder Woman #14 before completely losing their minds over Absolute Batman #14, a gloriously unhinged action-packed fight finale to the Abomination arc filled with skyscraper-dropping theatrics, venom-fueled warfare, Killer Croc callbacks, and a chilling Joker twist that redefines Bane's future. They celebrate Nick Dragotta's wildly ambitious layouts—now finally earning the industry recognition his East of West work always deserved—while reflecting on how the issue crystallizes what makes this version of Batman so different: a hero who fights not to win, but because fighting is the point. The episode wraps with their week-end rankings, teases of upcoming Fireside Chats, YouTube shout-outs, and a Thanksgiving sendoff that doubles as a rallying cry for the week's standout title: "Welcome to Gotham."
Nurse Ratched likes a rigged game, according to R.P. McMurphy. And it's true that the game he is playing—lawless and hedonistic, but also vital and free-spirited—is unwinnable on her sandlot. As their conflict develops, we seem to be asked to compare the therapeutic value of McMurphy's introduction of the Dionysian, to Ratched's attempt to enforce an ordered calm within the psychiatric ward over which she is absolute ruler. What happens when the Godzilla of superegos takes on a libidinal King Kong? Wes & Erin discuss the 1975 film “One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.”
