Episode #282: But I Believe Elsa Can Save the World
It might not technically be an adaptation, but the hosts couldn’t resist talking about Frozen II (2019): the emotional new songs, cute new sidekicks, and Kristoff’s Best Boyfriend award.
Episode #213: Mustache on the Orient Express
Adaptation covers Murder on the Orient Express (2017), with all it’s epic facial hair, increased drama, and intensified moral arcs.
Episode #191: There’s Something There That Wasn’t There Before
The Adaptation hosts just can’t stop gabbing about the new live-action Beauty and the Beast (2017). Despite their previous doubts, they’re pretty happy with the extra backstories, songs, and details from the original fairytale.
Watch the 1991 animated film along with us in our commentary.
Question(s) of the Week: How did you feel about the balance of backstories between the Beast and Belle? Would you have liked more from one, the other, or both?
Episode #186: A Dog’s Fluffy Purpose
In this episode, Dorin and Kendyl have watched A Dog’s Purpose (2017) and discuss how the different lives fit together, the ending, and how it differs from the book.
Listen to our episode on the book by W. Bruce Cameron.
Question(s) of the Week: Did you think the different lives felt disjointed? If so, how could it have been done better?
Adaptation #70: What Frozen Things Do In Summer
The hosts think that even ‘loosely adapted’ is being a little too generous with Frozen, Disney’s version of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen.
