We talk about some heavy topics in this episode so here is your heavy content warning.
No AOT Talk!
Also, we know people are really invested in Wonder Egg Priority so was I. I changed my tune during this episode. I learned from my mom why she thinks this anime isn't necessarily as hyped up as many people are doing. If you disagree that's fine but hear her out!
All the other anime WHEW! There's a lot. So expect more then just Wonder Egg.

I was pressured into doing a "Who would win in a fight?" episode..... Some of our favorite characters put together in a the age old question. Who is the most powerful.....
We've ran out of things to talk about I guess...
Just kidding we can always rag on cult classic films everyone loves instead!
I hope you guys like 80's films cause here we go.
@egoeclectic
Citizen Kane is touted as the best movie of all time. However, we vehemently disagree.... We also talk about Mank. And some other stuff too.
We had way too much fun this season... well mostly Narelle. And we definitely spent way more time simping over some husbandos and wifus this season.
Let's jump right in!

@egoeclectic
This October we watched a bunch of obscure-ish vampire films.. Have you seen any of these? What did you think?
@eclecticego
We read Dune... it's pretty good. You'll also have to forgive me for the audio in this I thought it was a good idea to move around a lot. Regardless, we're looking forward to the new movie we hope you are too.
@egoeclectic
Have you ever looked back at those films you grew up watching from the 80s? Labyrinth, Legend, The Neverending Story... they all had a special quality. What was it about these films that are so good? We go through them all today.
@egoeclectic
This might have been an season with hardly any anime.. but there were some decent anime's to watch. Anyone else going to rent a girlfriend?

These are some of the Netflix shows we like... not even love! If you have suggestions on what else we should watch let us know!
Berserk, Sailor Moon, Dragonball Z, Pokemon, Rurouni Kenshin, and YuYu Hakusho. All amazing in their own ways, but what did it mean to us and why did we like these so much. Why is 90s anime so special?
Insta and Twitter @egoeclectic
Tremors is...scary? It's on Netflix if you would like to join us in watching this interesting film. This spawned a whole ton of other films similar to it. So if you like this please let us know and we'll do the other movies!
@egoeclectic

This movie was a really fun and interesting watch for both me and my mom I hope you guys enjoy it.
Today we cover Aladdin, Rapunzel, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty. Comparing their original stories to their Disney Adaptations.. and how well they actually did.
@egoeclectic
Anime was difficult this season since there was a halt on a lot of what was being put out due to COVID-19. Regardless it was still a fantastic season with second seasons that surprised us and an anime that came out of left field.
@egoeclectic

This is our first mish-mash episode! And with decent-ish audio quality. I promise I'm trying to get better! Also, PSA if you are worried about the coronavirus spend some extra time reading into what is being reported (we kinda sensationalize it in this episode apologies)
We wanted to try something new...like a full commentary track of a movie neither of us enjoyed but haven't seen in a while. If you want to hear it we watched the full movie. Just start it when it tells you to and then you can hear what stupid things we have to say about it.

BTS is a great band, they continue to break records put out amazing music and inspire those around the world. However, many of the newer ARMY's believe that BTS is the most influential group right now because they are the only group to truly make headway in the USA.
This doesn't take into account all the groups who built the road for them. That's what the Eclectic Ego talks about here. Yes ! Narelle says Taeyong instead of Taeyang in this podcast - my mistake sorry!

The Eclectic Ego talks about some of the beginnings of Dystopian fiction mostly looking at 1984, Metropolis, Logan's Run, Mad Max, Akira, and so much more. This short series is meant to take a deeper look into what we call dystopia and see how it has changed in media over the past 100+ years.
We saw Doctor Sleep... And we wanted to give a NO SPOILER review of it compared to its parent movie The Shining. It's mostly a rant...

Whats better then Frankenstein? The semi-hot beginning of the vampire craze from the 1800s. Dracula and all of the crazy dramatic goths that come with it. Don't forget Johnathan Harker is also kinda an idiot. Just to be clear we talk about Dracula.
What's the best Frankenstein Movie? Are the original Black and White ones any good? What does the book add that they didn't? Does any movie actually tell Mary Shelley's story? All these questions answered.... today. Not really mostly just a rant I guess.
