This is the podcast about movies, videogames, and the sparks that fly when those worlds collide! Each week, Steve Guntli, Jennifer Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm will watch a movie and then play the video game based on that movie to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, similarities, and differences between the two mediums to see how they complement, or contradict, each other!

Cars 3 / Cars 3: Driven To Win

CinemArcade ·

2024/11/22

The CARS series dumps the spy comedy in favor of a down-to-earth, weirdly poignant final entry, CARS 3! This 2017 film was largely overlooked and is one of Pixar's lowest-grossing films, but it has some interesting things to say and some of the most beautiful animation in the series to date. We're checking out the movie before playing CARS 3: DRIVEN TO WIN, which expands on the fun ideas of the CARS 2 game into a quiet banger of a racing game.Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and

2024/11/15

Mater takes center stage this week for the oft-maligned spy parody CARS 2! While critics at the time may have relegated this to the bottom of the Pixar heap, the film may have finally found it's audience. It certainly has with our guest, certified CARS 2 superfan Hannah Mattes, who joins us to debate the finer points of this detour from the CARS formula. Then, we're playing the PS3/360 era game adaptation, a sprightly and fun action racer with a wide range of playable characters. Hosted by Steve

Atlantis: The Lost Empire (with Marissa Macy)

CinemArcade ·

2024/11/01

This week we're checking out the 2001 Disney adventure ATLANTIS: THE LOST EMPIRE! A box office disappointment upon release, the film has grown a steady following over the years, in part because of just how stinkin' hot all the characters are. At least that's the contention of our guest, comedian/writer/filmmaker Marissa Macy! Join us as we talk about the film and it's multiple game adaptations, including the rare Disney-sanctioned first-person shooter! Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan"

Monster House

2024/10/11

This week, it's the movie that taunts us with it's house-ness... MONSTER HOUSE! This 2006 animated horror-comedy was an early project for Dan Harmon and Rob Schrab, and they bring a welcome amount of wit and energy to this rare horror film for kids.

The Goonies (with Ailish Collins)

CinemArcade ·

2024/09/27

Ailish Collins fills in for Justin this week on what may be our most contentious film to date: 1985's THE GOONIES! Is the film a timeless family classic or is it a victim of nostalgia goggles? We enjoy a firey debate on the subject before covering the odd NES pseudo-sequel, THE GOONIES II, which introduces a mermaid to the mythology.

Pup, pup and away! This week we're looking at our most recent movie, the 2022 animated riff on the DC universe, LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS! Featuring a ridiculously stacked cast and a surprising fidelity to DC lore, the film is a fun if derivative riff on hits like SECRET LIFE OF PETS, only with superheroes. We're talking about the film and it's recent game adaptation, THE ADVENTURES OF ACE AND KRYPTO, while battling our greatest nemesis yet: COVID! Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and

Ki ki ki, ma ma ma... That sound can only mean one thing: Jason's back in town! Or he will be at least, because this week we're talking about the original FRIDAY THE 13th, the slasher sensation that would spawn one of the most indelible horror icons on the 20th century. Austin improv great Mickey May joins us as we take a deep-dive into 1980 classic and it's sequels, before diving in to two of our most notable game adaptations yet: the infamous 1989 NES version, and the not-long-for-this-world 2017

Go, go Power Rangers! We're talking about the kids TV phenomenon of the 90s, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers! In 1993, the Rangers basically overtook pop culture, dominating TV ratings and toy sales and becoming an icon of 90's cheese.

Vin Diesel is: xXx

CinemArcade ·

2024/06/21

Our unplanned Vin Diesel marathon continues as we visit our latest Justin's Choice: xXx! This 2002 spy thriller tried to disrupt Bond's spy supremacy with an X-treme sports superstar, and it's every bit as goofy and dated as it sounds. We're talking about the film, then looking at the GBA-exclusive game, which is weirdly a soft remake of... LILO & STITCH?

2024/05/31

We're blowing the bloody doors off of British classic THE ITALIAN JOB! The cult favorite starring Michael Caine and Noel Coward became one of the definitive films of London in the swinging 60s, and featured some of the most elaborate and impressive car stunts yet put on film.

Our ROCKY miniseries comes to an end as the Rocky passes the gloves down to the next generation in 2015's CREED!

Rocky

2024/03/22

The uplifting 70's classic ROCKY is a quintessential underdog story both on screen and in real life. It helped turn writer-star Sylvester Stallone into one of the most successful actors of his generation, and shaped the future of sports movies to come. We're kicking off a three-part exploration of the ROCKY franchise, starting with the 1976 original and it's video game adaptations for Sega Master System and Xbox!
