In Part III of Tracking Trachtenberg: Spotted, Andy and Aaron arguing over the 1999 Summer Blockbuster, Disney's Inspector Gadget. (Now Streaming on Disney+) This week, A+A welcome improviser and Inspector Gadget Expert of the Los Angeles Region, Matt Chamberlin (@mrchamberlin) to discuss the problems, the potential, and the great cast of the live action film adaptation of the classic 80's cartoon. Was the Director the problem? Did the studio intervene? Is Rupert Everett miscast? Why didn't the filmmakers take more from the source material? Why didn't the 90s produce good origin stories? Why wasn't Michelle allowed to freak out? Who would you cast as Gadget today? Where are today's physical comedians? What Gadget would you want? What was the most 90s part of the movie? All this and more in another installment of Tracking Trachtenberg. Next week we stay on Track with Disney's Ice Princess (streaming on Disney+). Until then... xoxo.
