  • 620. Return of Adventures in Podcasting: Adaptation - Storytelling by the Book

    When you read, you're missing cinematography and casting and editing and directing and music...when you watch, what nuances are you missing that can only be conveyed on the page? What does it look like to capture the heart of the story? When you adapt what you read to film, what responsibility do you have to the original work?

    Jason and Ryan discuss, debate, and decide in an all new Adventures in Podcasting, an unscripted, unplanned, unboring journey into the unknown!

    The Deep Question: What's a casting that didn't happen that you would fix?

  • 619. Timeless: Back to the Future (1985)

    GREAT SCOTT! This episode is really heavy! Cinema Drive goes back to Back to the Future (1985), a film that's been entertaining Jason and Ryan and all of Movieland for about 40 years! Michael J. Fox steals the show and seals the deal in this timeless (get it?) classic. Bobs Zemeckis and Gale, Christopher Lloyd, Crispin Glover, Lea Thompson, Tom Wilson...a memorable team ensured a memorable movie that found the humanity in the thick of the adventure.

    The Deep Question: Your wife has just injected herself with the Chimera virus to not let it fall into the enemy's hands. Your parachute can only save one of you. What do you do?

    There is no Cinema Drive, only Zuul! It's mass hysteria! Jason and Ryan stroll out of a big screen showing of Ghostbusters (1984) and right into the studio! It's that ghostly time of year and you know what that means: A Cinema Drive Halloween! Celebrating the 40TH ANNIVERSARY of this classic is a joy, a thrill, and an exploration of what makes it so rewatchable.

  • 617. Scored by Queen: Flash Gordon (1980) and Highlander (1986)

    Queen lent their magic, their power, their drama, and their high-octane personality to electrify both Flash Gordon (1980) and Highlander (1986)! These movies are just too much darn fun, and this is a Cinema Drive episode long in the making. Jason and Ryan glory in the cheese, the camp, and the cult power of these 80s flicks.

    The Deep Question: Who is taller?


    This Week's Features:
    Flash Gordon (1980)
