08.26.2017 - By Matthew Donald and Matthew David
Originally recorded: August 2017 In this episode, the two Matts reveal the title of Matt Donald's Megazoic sequel, dine on stories cooked by the great Gaston Crayon de Papier, take a stance against the bigotry and hatred in present-day America, and talk about what makes a bad origin story along with a little about what makes a good one. Does realism factor into what makes a bad origin story? Do you have to follow the classic Hero's Journey paradigm to the letter? Is it okay to follow cliches or totally subvert them? Will Matt David's pride ever recover from Matt Donald's interruption of his EPIC intro song? We discuss it all, with all the blatant immaturity our listeners expect from us at this point, and talk about Star Wars, Spider-Man, Harry Potter, and some hilarious new characters in Marvel's Inhumans. Seriously, they're amazingly terrible. Have any feedback or questions for our hosts? Email us at [email protected]. Also you can purchase Matt Donald's book on Amazon by clicking here. If you'd like, of course.
