Modern Escapism

"The Multiverse is a concept about which we know frighteningly little"...and we still don't, not even after we pitch our spectacular Multiverse ideas.
 
 This week we're joined by Mr.Podcast Worldwide himself, Planty from '100 Things We Learned From Film'.
 
 As is tradition when we have a guest on we let them pick the topic and Planty came up with the fun idea of creating our own Multiverses. The idea, to take characters and worlds from any forms of media and blend them together to create something weird and wonderful...and boy did we ever.
 
 Before that, we review

• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
• Spiderhead
• Jurassic World Dominion
• Alma's Not Normal
• Cluedo The Play

This week we're asking the question 'Was It Worth It?'

We look at sequels and prequels across different forms of media in order to establish whether something was really worth the time & effort. 

Did it add anything to the story?...Did it ruin the world and characters?...Did it keep up with the quality of the original?...Did it take a great idea and ruin it?

All these questions and more will be answered.

But before all that, we review

• Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
• Silt
• Our Father
• Men
• Hustle

Start your engines, step on the peddle and fire up that Nos because the boys are finally back with the next episode of 2Faff2Curious. 

Gadget and Biggie have scooped up their melted brains from the floor and after a much needed & deserved break, they’re finally back to complete the Saga. First up in the run down is 2013’s Fast and Furious 6.

Will this one improve upon the previous entries and produce something they like?...We very much doubt it. There will be sighs, laughs and many rants.

If you enjoy this episode, you can go back and listen to 2F2C episodes 1 to 5 on our Patreon service - patreon.com/modernescapism

Sometimes time makes the heart grow fonder, or it inspires a reinvigoration of a franchise. Or it can be a cynical cash grab. This week, we're talking about those bits of media that have gone years and years between entries. A sequel decades later? A revisit to a long forgotten but beloved franchise? A stinker of a cash grab? We're on it.

Before all that we discussed:

• Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness
• The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind by Jackson Ford
• Russian Doll Season 2
