Episode 050: Tokyo Tribe (2014)

from Genre Exposure: A Film Podcast · host Genre Exposure

In this episode, we wrap up our last block of the year on musicals with an explosive finale. Echoing last year, Dustin returns us to the madcap genre blending world of director Sion Sono for an over the top rap battle musical. Join us as we check out Tokyo Tribe from 2014. Jason struggles to leverage the cinematic elements he finds enjoyable against his distaste for rap. Dustin goes full super fan, carefully charting out all the connections and fun factoids he can about the movie. Michael struggles to the finish line with this one. This time we've got a lineup of impressions as varied as the film itself. Along the way, in our usual fashion, we also stumble onto some heavier topics like the impact of filmmaker scandals and how they can affect one's viewing of a movie. And so much more!
