In this episode of Comic Stripped, Mark Radulich and Evan Bevins dive into Here, discussing how Richard McGuire's formal experiment reshaped the boundaries of graphic storytelling and how Zemeckis' adaptation attempts to interpret that same vision through cinema. The hosts explore whether the emotional arc added in the film enhances or detracts from the original's minimalist power. They also debate the challenges of adapting abstract art into narrative film, and where Here sits in the pantheon of both graphic novels and cinematic experimentation."Here" is a 6-page comic story by Richard McGuire published in 1989, and expanded into a 304-page graphic novel in 2014. The concept of "Here" (in both versions) is to show the same location in space at different points in time, ranging from the primordial past to thousands of years in the future. "Here" has been recognized as a groundbreaking experiment with the formal properties of comics.Here is a 2024 American drama film produced and directed by Robert Zemeckis, who co-wrote the screenplay with Eric Roth, based on the 2014 graphic novel by Richard McGuire. Echoing the source material, the film is told in a nonlinear fashion: using a locked-down or "static shot" technique, the story covers a single plot of land and its inhabitants, from the distant past to the 21st century. During the film, the screen is often subdivided into panes, presenting events from different times simultaneously. The film stars Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Paul Bettany, and Kelly Reilly, with digital de-aging via generative artificial intelligence being used on much of the cast to have them portray their characters over time.Here premiered at the AFI Fest on October 25, 2024, before being theatrically released in the United States by TriStar Pictures through Sony Pictures Releasing on November 1, 2024.[10] The film received generally negative reviews from critics and grossed $15.8 million.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 For the purposes of engaging with tiktok and youtube viewers, what is the best 10min or more segment from this podcast?

Tonight on Triple Feature, Mark Radulich and Mac Kettner embark on a cinematic journey through the bold, genre-bending filmography of the Wachowski Sisters, tracing their artistic evolution from the noir-tight thriller Bound (1996), through the ambitious, time-hopping epic Cloud Atlas (2012), to the sprawling, space-operatic chaos of Jupiter Ascending (2015).We begin with Bound, their directorial debut—a lean, tightly constructed neo-noir starring Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly. While remembered today for its stylized depiction of a lesbian relationship and its feminist reversal of genre tropes, the film also laid the groundwork for the Wachowskis' signature style: sharp visual framing, subversive gender politics, and a meticulous blend of genre tradition and rebellion. Critics at the time praised its confidence and tension, and it's since become a cult classic, often cited for how it queered the crime genre with both sensuality and grit.Fast forward to Cloud Atlas, a deeply ambitious adaptation of David Mitchell's novel. Co-directed with Tom Tykwer, the film features a sprawling ensemble cast—Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugh Grant, Jim Broadbent, Doona Bae—playing multiple interconnected roles across six timelines. Aesthetic maximalism meets spiritual recursion here: past lives, future consequences, and the collapse of individual identity into something larger. The film was divisive, praised for its ambition but criticized for its complex structure and controversial use of makeup. Still, in retrospect, Cloud Atlas is regarded as a turning point—a declaration that the Wachowskis were more interested in ideas than in simple spectacle.Finally, we crash into Jupiter Ascending—a wildly uneven, endlessly fascinating space opera starring Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum. The film throws genetic royalty, flying rollerblades, Eddie Redmayne whisper-shouting, and bureaucratic intergalactic dynasties into a blender. It's messy, no doubt. But it's also unmistakably Wachowskian: rich with metaphor, post-capitalist critique, and gendered power struggles wrapped in ridiculous sci-fi fantasy. It was largely panned upon release, but like much of their work, Jupiter Ascending has developed a loyal fanbase who see past the surface chaos to the emotional and thematic sincerity underneath.Through these three films, we trace the Wachowski Sisters' cinematic transformation: from intimate noir storytellers to high-concept philosophers to unapologetically maximalist dreamers. No matter the box office or Rotten Tomatoes score, their work consistently pushes boundaries—of genre, identity, and cinematic form itself.So buckle in. We're talking legacy, aesthetics, ideas, and all the gloriously weird stuff in between.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

I'm currently taking a break from the podcast, however I think you might enjoy this slightly older episode on That Thing You Do!1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4....Everyone's favourite movie uncle Tom Hanks isn't as known for his directorial or screenwriting career, as he is for his many Oscar-winning acting roles. That Thing You Do! was his first foray into both directing and writing, and boy does he knock it out of the park with this.It's a charming, sweet, nostalgic tale of Erie, PA teenagers Guy, Jimmy, Lenny and Tobias (the retrospectively named bass player!). They are the Oneders, and they enter a talent competition with a ballad written by Jimmy and Lenny, but that replacement drummer Guy ups the tempo on, causing everyone to want to dance along.The Oneders, renamed The Wonders, along with Jimmy's girlfriend Faye, go on a whirlwind of musical success, but the music industry is not a forgiving master, and like many real life bands, the Wonders become one-hit wonders.It could easily be a cautionary tale, but it's just so joyous and charming, invoking an era of timelessness, recalling the bygone days of Americana, the British Invasion that started with The Beatles, as well as the politics of the music industry, with an earworm of a theme song that might even be better than the theme song of this podcast. This was a passion project for Tom Hanks, and you can tell. It oozes careful thought, and the level of behind the scenes talent working on this movie belies Hanks' inexperience behind the screen.Everything about this movie is, excuse the pun, wonderful. Liv Tyler has beautiful hair, and RIP Adam Schlesinger.This episode was originally released on 25th November 2021Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode.

How to Land Acting Work in Smaller Markets (And Why It's More Accessible Than You Might Think) Have you ever thought that real acting work is only found in big cities? Like you have to be in New York or LA to make it? I used to think that too. But my conversation with actor Aaron Marcus on the Acting Business Boot Camp podcast really shifted that perspective. About Aaron Marcus Aaron Marcus has been a full-time actor for over 40 years, with nearly 1,300 bookings across film, TV, commercials, and more. You might have seen his scene with Tom Hanks in the film A Man Called Otto. Aaron started his acting journey in a small market, with no connections and no clue how to break in. After figuring it out through trial and error, he dedicated himself to helping others avoid those same pitfalls. He's led over 800 workshops on three continents and offers private virtual coaching sessions to share his hard-earned wisdom. You can learn more about Aaron's work, watch his free quick-tip videos, or sign up for his mailing list at howtoactandmodel.com. The Reality of Smaller Markets It's easy to forget that acting isn't only about movies and television. There's a whole world of paid acting work in smaller markets that most people overlook: training videos, corporate films, industrials, standardized patient work at hospitals, even local commercials and role-playing jobs for law schools and agencies. Aaron shared how he built up a steady income and impressive résumé by seizing these opportunities. And he's proof that you don't have to be in a major city to find consistent, paid work as an actor. Finding These Hidden Opportunities Aaron offered some practical insights that really stuck with me: Reach out to local businesses and small chains. These places need content to promote themselves—commercials, training videos, even social media content. Connect with teaching hospitals and medical schools in your area. Standardized patient work is fascinating and pays you to improvise as a patient to help train medical professionals. Contact advertising agencies nearby, not just the national ones. Local agencies need real people with authentic voices for regional commercials and corporate videos. And maybe my favorite point: Aaron still believes in mailing hard copies of your materials. Yes, it's old-fashioned. But it's memorable. Most emails get deleted. A real letter can make an impression. The Importance of Staying Connected Aaron also talked about the value of looping in your agent, even when you book work yourself. It's not about giving away part of your earnings. It's about showing your agent that you're proactive and working. It's about nurturing relationships and building a sense of partnership. A Reminder: There's Work for Everyone What struck me most in talking with Aaron was this simple truth: there's work out there for everyone. You just have to know where to look and be willing to take action. If you're feeling stuck or discouraged by the idea that you have to be in a big city to book work, I hope this encourages you. You don't. The opportunities are out there. They're in your community. And often, the first step is just reaching out and asking who's doing the hiring. Until next time, remember: there's work out there for everyone. Stay safe and treat yourself real well.

Carl visited one of his favorite cities in the world -- New Orleans and had the privilege to interview the amazing Nick Mueller, co-founder of the World War II Museum. You do not need to be a history buff to love this episode. Nick was contemplating his first (un)retirement in 1990, when he and Stephen Ambrose (best-selling author and celebrity historian) met over a bottle of sherry and discussed the idea of starting a World War II Museum on a historic site right there in New Orleans. The original idea was to raise one million dollars and have a modest warehouse museum by the water. Thirty-four years later, they have raised $400 million and now operate one of the world's best museums, right in the middle of New Orleans. Nick was the founding CEO of the museum (after his first career) and just retired again last year at age 84. He's a remarkable person and the museum is an incredibly moving experience. Along the way he's made friends and has garnered significant contributions from celebrities Tom Hanks, Tom Brokaw and Steven Spielberg.  Please make sure to listen to the last 6 minutes of the interview. As Nick talks about the lessons learned from WWII, Carl asks him where he thinks our country is headed now. His thoughtful insights are so inspirational and he gives us some needed hope for the future. • More about Nick Mueller: https://www.nationalww2museum.org/about-us/our-team/museum-founders/gordon-h-nick-mueller  • Nick's new book Preserving the Legacy: Creating the National WWII Museum: https://lsupress.org/9780807184493/preserving-the-legacy  • Episode Content:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Nick-Mueller-Interview-Mr-World-War-II-Museum-Co-Founder-and-Former-CEO  • Sponsored by Capital Advantage: https://capitaladvantage.com/promotion/retirement-planning-guide    • Sponsored by How to Retire and Not Die: https://garysirak.com/how-to-retire-and-not-die    • Join the "I Used to be Somebody World Tour": https://pickleballmediahq.com/tour    • Subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

Movie of the Year: 1999The Green MileWhy The Green Mile Still Strikes a ChordOn this episode of the Movie of the Year podcast, the Taste Buds step into the hauntingly spiritual world of The Green Mile, Frank Darabont's sweeping 1999 adaptation of the Stephen King novel. Blending magical realism with deeply human storytelling, The Green Mile tackles justice, pain, and the inexplicable mysteries of life—and the panel is here to unpack it all.As they revisit this emotional powerhouse, the Taste Buds examine the film's artistry, cultural context, and why it continues to resonate with audiences decades later. Whether listeners are longtime fans or curious newcomers, this discussion sheds light on the film's enduring significance.Darabont and King: Adapting The Green MileFew director-author pairings have produced such emotionally resonant work as Frank Darabont and Stephen King. After the success of The Shawshank Redemption, Darabont returned to King's work with The Green Mile, crafting another prison-set epic—but this time with a supernatural twist.The Taste Buds explore how Darabont translates King's sprawling narrative into a cohesive film, balancing intimate performances with grand themes of morality, fate, and grace. The episode also compares both adaptations, highlighting what makes The Green Mile uniquely powerful.Related Links:Stephen King's Official SiteIMDb: The Green MileCoffey and Race: A Complicated Legacy in The Green MileJohn Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan) is one of the most memorable characters in 1990s cinema, but also one of its most debated. This episode takes a close look at the racial dynamics of the film, unpacking the “magical Negro” trope and its implications.The panel wrestles with the emotional potency of Coffey's story, the film's approach to race and injustice, and how it reflects the myth-making tendencies of Hollywood storytelling, especially when viewed through a modern lens.The Power of Love in The Green MileAt its core, The Green Mile is a film about love. Not romantic love, but love expressed through compassion, understanding, and humanity. The Taste Buds reflect on the different relationships in the film—Paul Edgecomb's (Tom Hanks) empathy for Coffey, the bonds between the prison guards, and even Coffey's tenderness toward the mouse, Mr. Jingles.The discussion highlights how the film uses moments of grace to balance its darker themes and why The Green Mile remains a tearjerker that earns every emotional beat.Bonus Segment: Being John MalkovichAs a special treat for listeners, the episode includes a bonus segment where the Taste Buds dive into another 1999 classic: Being John Malkovich. They explore the film's surreal originality, its commentary on identity and celebrity, and how it stands as one of the boldest cinematic experiments of the year. It's a wild ride that perfectly complements the emotional gravity of The Green Mile.Guest Panelist Spotlight: Erik from Cradle 2 the GraveJoining the Taste Buds for this episode is special guest Erik, host of the Cradle 2 the Grave podcast. With his signature insight and deep love for ‘90s cinema, Erik brings fresh perspectives to the discussion, particularly on the cultural legacy of The Green Mile. His dynamic presence adds a new flavor to the panel as they dig deep into themes of justice, faith, and film craft.
