I'll Show You Mine

Welcome to another episode of I’ll Show You Mine! This week James is showing Elyse ‘Bastion’ from 2011. The debut game from now-hotshot developer Supergiant Games, ‘Bastion’ is an action RPG that follows the story of The Kid, a silent protagonist who wakes up in the fantasy world of Caelondia after the apocalyptic events of the Calamity. As he attempts to fix The Bastion, a kind of floating base camp that might have the power to reverse the Calamity, his adventures are narrated by a mysterious stranger.

Join us as we discuss the impressive art, music, voice acting and mechanics of this game, compare it to Supergiant’s latest hit ‘Hades’, and marvel at how much the tiny team at Supergiant was able to achieve for this debut indie game.

Our next episode will be March 12th, when Elyse shows James ‘Down with Love’ from 2003.

Our theme song is by us! James Sparkman and Elyse Wietstock.

Welcome to a brand new season of I’ll Show You Mine! This week Elyse is showing James ‘Rocky II’, starring, written, and directed by Sylvester Stallone.

Join us as we dive back into the world of ‘Rocky’ and talk about the simple charm of main character Rocky, the sweet romance between Rocky and Adrian that matures in this sequel, and marvel at the sheer amount of bodily fluids flying all over the place in this movie about an often brutal sport.

Our next episode will be February 26th, when James shows Elyse ‘Bastion’ for PC.

Welcome to the I’ll Show You Mine Christmas Movie Special! This year we’re watching the classic Rankin/Bass stop-motion TV special, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, originally aired in 1964. It’s the story you know from the traditional Christmas song about little reindeer with a shiny red nose, with a little patented Rankin/Bass fantasy thrown in for good measure.

Join us as we talk about the cute characters and voices, marvel at the big swings Rankin/Bass took with their re-molding of the Rudolph story, and notice that the animation team was definitely more bright-eyed and bushy-tailed making this movie than ‘Rudolph’s Shiny New Year’ more than 10 years later.

That’s it for us this year, be sure to keep us in your podcast subscriptions and follow us on social media for updates on when our next season will be airing in 2021!
