Made In The 80s Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer. A Nostalgic Look at Anime-Inspired Animation.
Get ready to ride the rainbow of nostalgia with us, Johnny Spoiler and Jordan Savage, as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of 'Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer.' Our vibrant discussion not only revisits the beloved '80s animation but also peels back the layers of its surprisingly anime-inspired artistry. It's a visual feast for the eyes and a feast for the soul as we dissect the film's enduring themes and the powerful pull of seasonal emotions. Plus, we couldn't help but tip our hats to the king of B-movies, Roger Corman, and debate the merits of his cinematic universe versus the future of the 'Planet of the Apes' series.
Vaulting from animation to live-action, our conversation takes unexpected turns. Ever wondered how Jeff Bridges would tackle the role of Grendel? We've got the scoop, alongside musings on how legendary figures like Corman continue to shape the film industry. We also can't help but chuckle over the industry's brightest talents and the curveballs they've thrown into the cinematic mix. This is the kind of chat where heartfelt laughter is guaranteed, and classic Disney animations get a tip of the hat for their timeless charm.
But wait, there's more! As we wade through the media maze shaped by YouTube and TikTok, we share some golden nuggets from actor interviews that have resurfaced for a digital age. Our reflections meander through Sharon Stone's memoir to a half-time review of 'Basic Instinct.' So, lean back, get comfy, and join us for an episode that promises to entertain and possibly spoil you with rich discussions on the films that have shaped our viewing experiences.
