Story x Story Rewind: Big Screen Comic & Video Game Adaptations (Live!)

We’re doing it LIVE! This week's episode is a rewind from the MK Film & Comic Con, making it the first podcast recorded at a comic convention in podcast history. Nigel and Tazziii discuss big-budget adaptations of comic, manga, and video game franchises in front of a studio audience. We question why Hollywood continues to invest in adaptations despite the number of flops and examine some of the best and worst adaptations to understand why some have fared better than others. In addition, Nigel and Tazziii talk to the audience and ask for examples of the good, bad and ugly. This discussion analyses the reasons behind the failures of the Uncharted and The Last Airbender films, as well as the great examples set by Arcane and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. So whether you're a fan of the original source material or just a movie buff, you’re in for a great walk down memory lane…and maybe one or two reminders of adaptations you tried to forget!
