Forgotten Cinema

Super 8


Listen Later

The Mikes are going back to the 70's to talk about aliens, Spielberg, and cliched dads on this episode of Forgotten Cinema!

Join Mike Butler and Mike Field as they discuss the 2011 film, "Super 8" from director JJ Abrams and produced by Steven Spielberg, starring Elle Fanning, Kyle Chandler, and Joel Courtney. The Mikes talk about this film being a direct homage to the 70/80's films by Spielberg, the lack of character journeys for many of the kids at the focus of the film, as well as big changes made to a key character in the film.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down once again for Forgotten Cinema!
