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?
The hosts cover both the book and movie versions of The Girl on the Train and wonder who was really surprised by the ending. But on the bright side, discussing these complex female characters turns out being just the type of deep conversation that they love having.
Question of the Week: At what point did you have your “light bulb moment,” when you realized whodunit in the book? In the movie?
In discussing the final installment of The Hobbit, the hosts get into a heated debate about where the film starts, but agree on many of the other aspects like the fantastic fight choreography and the over-done love story. Make sure you let us know what you thought of the film, the end of the series and our discussion in the comments!
*NOTE* This episode is unusually quiet because of some problems with the recording. We promise to do better next time.
