01.24.2019 - By Matthew Donald and Matthew David
Originally recorded: January 2019 In this episode, the two Matts comment on made-up previews before watching a made-up movie, reveal the title and premise for the final Megazoic book, reveal how cringe-y their contemporaries feel about the podcast, and talk about writing tear-jerking moments in stories. What's the difference between writing happy emotional moments and sad ones? What are effective ways to convey emotion? What are our personal favorite emotional moments in our own writing? Who will win the Character Who Nearly Turned Us Gay award in the nonexistent Witties ceremony this year? We discuss it all, with a box of tissues at the ready, and talk about Aquaman, October Sky, The Phantom of the Opera, and Fant4stic for some reason. Have any feedback or questions for our hosts?
