It's all about dogs! In this episode of Disney Discussions, it was Megan's pick, so we tackled the animated classics Fox And The Hound (1981) and Lady And The Tramp (1955)! In more detail, Megan starts by explaining why she chose these two movies, before the other 3 talk about their first memories of them. They then talk about Fox And The Hound at length, talking about it's characters, animation and songs, before delving into Lady And The Tramp to talk about the same! They then compare the two movies in all aspects to decide which they prefer and along the way they also talk about the bad pet owners in both movies! Keep an ear out for Mike “putting his foot in it” around the 40 minute mark (all the subsequent ribbing was in jest)!

Mike Burton is not only the creator and host of Genuine Chit-Chat and Star Wars Comics In Canon podcasts, a great friend and supporter of the show, but he's picked our movie to review for this week, Trainspotting from 1996. Trainspotting, directed by Danny Boyle, was a bold and innovative endeavor that brought Irvine Welsh's acclaimed novel to the screen. Boyle, known for his dynamic filmmaking style, collaborated with screenwriter John Hodge to adapt Welsh's darkly comedic yet harrowing exploration of heroin addiction. The film's production faced challenges in translating the novel's intense and visceral narrative to the screen, particularly in depicting the gritty and hallucinatory aspects of addiction. The casting of a talented ensemble, including Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, and Robert Carlyle, contributed to the authenticity of the characters and the film's overall impact. Boyle's kinetic direction, combined with the pulsating soundtrack featuring tracks from iconic bands like Underworld and Iggy Pop, added an electrifying energy to the film. The production team skillfully captured the gritty urban landscapes of Edinburgh, enhancing the raw and immersive quality of the storytelling. "Trainspotting" achieved critical acclaim for its uncompromising portrayal of addiction, its dark humor, and its visual inventiveness. The film's success marked a turning point in British cinema, and its cultural impact endures, solidifying its place as a seminal work of the 1990s and a defining film of the British new wave.

The narrative weaves a darkly humorous and visually stylized tapestry, capturing the desperation and nihilism of a generation in the throes of addiction. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support

WHAT ARE THE FREE COMIC BOOK DAY HIGH REPUBLIC STORIES? In ep 143, Mike delves into the 2021 & 2023 Free Comic Book Day High Republic stories surrounding characters from the High Republic Adventures comics from Phase 1, primarily Lula Talisola. The 2021 story takes place just after the Race To Crashpoint Tower book while the 2023 story takes place after all issues of the phase 1 Adventures comics. Mike talks about these stories as well as Ram Jomaram, Zeen Mrala, Qort, Starlight Beacon, The Nihil and more! Both stories were written by Daniel José Older, with Harvey Tolibao as artist. Rebcca Nalty was the colour artist for the 2021 story (Attack On The Republic Fair) and Michelle Madsen was colour artist for the 2023 story (Starlight Coda). FCBD21 was released in May 2021 and is in the trade paperback for volume 1 of The High Republic Adventures comics by IDW Publishing in February 2022, while FCBD23 was released August 2023. Both stories are within the THRA Phase 1 Omnibus, which was released in August 2023. Listen to Mike's review & summary of Race To Crashpoint Tower on this very feed (Feb 2022 for YT & CiM or May 2023 on SWCIC). The High Republic Adventures Phase 1 comics start in ep 86 of SWCIC, the middle comics (set after FCBD21) are in ep 90 and the finale (set just before FCBD23) are delved into in episode 93 of Star Wars: Comics In Canon.
