In our 30th episode we talk about the original version of “Pete’s Dragon” from 1977 and the new live action version from 2016. Joel had never seen either so he was in for a real treat...or so Avery thought. The original version was a film Avery grew up watching and absolutely loved. She loves the characters, the music, the dancing, and the absolute ridiculousness of it all. We come to find out nostalgia plays a huge part in the love of old movies however...both Avery and Joel watched the new version for the first time and both enjoyed it, even though we’re not sure if it was fair to call it a remake. It seemed more like an entirely different movie. So whether you watch these movies with nostalgia in your heart or not, we still recommend checking these out! Listen and enjoy!

How do I tell a powerful story where the protagonist cannot drive the plot? Stu and Chas are joined by Stephen Cleary following his exploration into Melodrama, and together they try to reclaim the word from its pejorative meaning. By examining powerful Melodramas - like THE HANDMAID’S TALE, LADIES IN BLACK and STRANGER THINGS… with many a tangent on MARRIAGE STORY, PETE’S DRAGON, MILDRED PIERCE, GAME OF THRONES, LOST, THE JOKER, THE KILLING, THE WITCHER, war movies and survival films - the three hosts try to unpick what makes Melodrama an alternate story paradigm to the Hero’s Journey. They delve into how Melodramas centre on characters that don’t have agency; where the plot happens to characters (as opposed to being driven by them); how Melodramas don’t end so much as close; and how all of the above delves into character questions more deeply than the Hero’s Journey. And to wrap it all up, the kind of techniques you use on the page to write effective melodramas. CW: There is a lot of discussion in this episode about melodrama being associated with “women’s stories” vs the “hero’s journey” - which is biased towards a ‘masculine’ mode of storytelling - and we fully acknowledge in the show and here that we are three cismen talking about these things.   This episode was edited by Christopher Walker.

Here we go! ///// > ///// Hello film fans! Andrew here, pinch-hitting today with... a Disney film. Don’t worry, I’ll be back on Friday with my usual dose of death and destruction. One of the perks to being an accredited film critic (well, actually, the only perk) is access to check out the occasional film at a press-screening or through a screener link or on DVD during awards season. Somehow, I didn’t even know of the existence of today’s film until I got my invite to go check it out at arguably Austin’s dingiest theater - remarkable, considering the budget was in the $150M range. What secured my RSVP was the ability to bring along my three kids and gauge their response to a film that has been marketed to both parents and children. Today’s movie is THE CALL OF THE WILD (2020), with a screenplay by Michael Green based on the Jack London novel, directed by Chris Sanders. THE CALL OF THE WILD tells the story of Buck, a St. Bernard / Scotch Collie mix and his adventures in the late 19th Century. After Buck is abducted from his mischievous life on a bucolic California estate, he’s shipped by boat up to the Yukon territory on the US-Canadian border. Buck is soon acquired by a kind couple in charge of delivering mail to the remote Alaskan town of Skagway. At first a reluctant member of a sled dog team, Buck begins to learn life lessons, as all dogs do, maturing and gaining confidence along the way. And I haven’t even gotten to the Harrison Ford part yet. Director Chris Sanders has three other directorial efforts to his name, all of which are animated - LILO & STITCH, HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON and THE CROODS. This makes a ton of sense after the fact as the film is live action except for the dogs and a few other animals you meet along the way. The sequences that rely heavily on the animals feel very much like a cartoon, albeit a well-crafted one, though thankfully none of the animals talk or provide the narration. Harrison Ford steps into the narrator role and does excellent work. Ford is always such a curmudgeon in real life that I was worried the whole film would feel like he was just showing up for a Disney payday, but his voice feels genuine, keeping the larger narrative aloft until his on-camera role expands in the second half of the picture. Dan Stevens and Karen Gillan appear as well, but feel miscast as the film’s villains. Bradley Whitford kicks off the story as Buck’s original owner in another strange bit of casting, putting a noteworthy actor in a role that barely outlasts the film’s credits. And the unsung hero is motion-capture actor Terry Notary who apparently stood in for Buck. I didn’t learn this until after the film and it’s certainly not apparent during the viewing, but hey, that’s good work if you can get it. One minor complaint is that the story itself feels more episodic rather than having a traditional three-act structure. Maybe it’s just because we are in the age of peak TV, but the whole thing might have worked better as 6-episode Disney+ series. Almost a full hour goes by before Buck inevitably hooks up with Ford’s John Thornton and it feels like everything prior is just a lead-up to this point. The primary problem with THE CALL OF THE WILD is that it tries too hard to be everything to everyone. The source material is not as light-hearted as the film would have you believe. The film features a number of violent scenes, even including some ambiguous allusions to death, though it sands down the corners to deliver the sanitized Disney version that audiences expect. (Incidentally, I have heard the live-action MULAN remake will be PG-13 and I am curious to see what that means for both the film itself as well as the box office). What did not work for me, for at least the first hour, was the juxtaposition of a rugged survival tale with humanized dogs that are uncannily expressive. I get that much of what was required of the dogs in this film probably could not have been done with actual animals, but it feels like the CGI went one step too far, making Buck in particular feel more like a cartoon animal living in the real world. What makes THE CALL OF THE WILD fantastic? THE CALL OF THE WILD is not afraid to take its time. There are just enough action scenes to keep the kids engaged and plenty of slapstick comedy, but there are also more moments of reflection (quiet or narrated) than you’re used to seeing a modern family film. My viewing experience recalled how I felt watching family adventure films growing up in the 1980s, like THE JOURNEY OF NATTY GANN, CHEETAH, or the made-for-tv movie STONE FOX. I really enjoyed experiencing this one with my kids, which has to be a much better sit than subjecting them to SONIC THE HEDGEHOG or the critically-derided DOOLITTLE. THE CALL OF THE WILD is a throwback family film that provides ample, if not particularly memorable, entertainment for all ages. Fans of adventure films that merge live action and CGI-animation such as THE JUNGLE BOOK or PETE’S DRAGON will enjoy this film. Rotten Tomatoes: 70% Metacritic: 53 One Movie Punch: 7.6/10 THE CALL OF THE WILD (2020) is rated PG and is playing in theaters. Come back on Friday and we’ll get back to the wild ways of Fantastic Fest with JALLIKATTU. In a rural Indian village, a buffalo has broken loose, damaging the town while mobs of men begin to form, seeking to restore order. You’ve seen movies with every other kind of killer animal, so why not a buffalo! See you then.

CW: Suicide, Filicide, Distressing Sequences involving Animals (Horses) It’s a Double Feature Week on Pod Sematary! Chris & Kelsey only have seven days left since they watched two films with ticking death clocks! Thanks for the recommendation, Lou! The Original: Ringu (1998) “A reporter and her ex-husband investigate a cursed video tape that is rumored to kill the viewer seven days after watching it” (IMDb.com). With much more subtle storytelling than it's famous gaijin remake (if you discount all of the psychic stuff), this incredible original might have you wondering why they bothered remaking it in the first place. The Remake: The Ring (2002) “A journalist must investigate a mysterious videotape which seems to cause the death of anyone one week to the day after they view it” (IMDb.com). This very Americanized remake cuts the fat but adds on more mystery and visual flair. Is it more your cup of tea? Get more at podsematary.com!

This week the Smearframers strike up a more serious and contemplative tone that their movie itself doesn't always succeed in doing, in order to discuss the merits of Disney remakes, what constitutes a good children's story, the validity of unexpected creative choices and how much good cinematography can save a movie while a bad soundtrack hinders it. Or at least they try to until someone brings up Karl Urban

The Smearframers are on summer break right now, but they still have time to send you listeners a postcard from Passamaquoddy, Maine to let you know what they thought of the original Pete's Dragon. It includes praise for the fun songs and wacky villains, complaints about there not being enough of the actual dragon and the continued proposition of adapting the podcast's movies as stage musicals. 

Neverland Clubhouse: A Sister's Guide Through Disney Fandom

We're stepping back in time to talk PETE'S DRAGON (1977) with Anthony Fox (MousePire Podcast). Along the way we compare and contrast with 2016's PETE'S DRAGON and marvel at what made it past the censors in the 1970's. Several listeners wrote in with their comments and memories of the film. Fun Fact: Jim Dale (who plays Dr. Terminus) reads all the Harry Potter U.S. versions of the audio books and he is incredible. Lends new credibility to the Dr. Terminus of PETE'S DRAGON. If you've never seen it or haven't watched in awhile, here's a plot refresher: Pete is a nine-year-old orphan who escaped from his brutal adoptive parents, and now wanders the New England coast with his only friend - a cartoon dragon named Elliott. They find a new home in Passamaquoddy, Maine, and live with Nora, a lighthouse keeper, and her father, Lampie. All is not well in this little fishing town when the shady Dr. Terminus shows up and wants to cut Elliott up and sell for medicinal purposes. And non-stop hilarity ensues!
