Ep. 081 - Kubo and the Two Strings (GUEST: Diana Bang)


Listen Later

For August 29th, 2016, Red and Scott are excited to have the wonderful and talented Diana Bang back in the Nostromo lounge to discuss the dulcet tones of Werner Herzog in the slightly lackluster new documentary LO AND BEHOLD: REVERIES FROM THE CONNECTED WORLD aka 'What is this new Internet thing?', Baz Luhrman's new Netflix Original show THE GET DOWN features all the familiar Luhrmanian visual / musical tricks, Scott is clinically obsessed with Playdead Studios latest release INSIDE and needs no further convincing that it is one of the greatest experiences in the history of video games, the horrific quest to find Hitler's perfect clone gets a bit messy in the surprisingly decent science fiction thriller THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL starring Gregory Peck as Dr. Josef Mengele, Red enjoys his birthday gift in the form of tickets to THE BOOK OF MORMON produced by the one and only Trey Parker & Matt Stone, and much, much more before our frame by frame review of KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS from LAIKA studios and director Travis Knight.
