On the 280th episode of Piecing It Together, Nguyen Le joins me to talk about Disney's latest adventure Strange World. An unfortunate disappointment in theaters, we both had fun with its old school charms. Puzzle pieces include Journey To The Center Of The Earth, Avatar, Osmosis Jones and Jumanji.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Strange World and the movies we discuss!
