When a star-crossed lover promises to seek a fallen star for the girl of his dreams, he encounters a land of magic and mayhem. This once upon a time tale echoes The Princess Bride with jokes and wackiness to spare. The gang discuss ideas of fantasy, dives into the Captain Shakespeare character, discusses the use of cinematography and production design and much more. Join us as we tackle one of the genres we rarely discuss in this fantastical episode.

Neil Gaiman's Stardust began in 1997 as a DC comic book fairy tale. In 1999 it was then published as an illustrated novel. Finally in 2007 it was adapted to the screen, directed by Matthew Vaughn.
