The Crucible (1996) - 52° K.B. #24

We kick off a new year, a new season, and a new month with our discussion on the 1981 fantasy film "Dragonslayer". We talk about the reason the film looks so damn good, especially the dragon, and how the wonderful production design deserved a better script. We also discuss how it may have influenced the fantasy films that followed as well as its behind the scenes connection to Empire Strikes Back. Ian's Website: https://www.kickseat.com

Tis the season for buying and selling. What better movie to talk about before the holiday than a movie about a car sales man who has a dog day afternoon, or as Ian says "Dodge Day Afternoon". Join us as we talk about "Cadillac Man" starring Robin Williams and Tim Robbins. We dive deep into what makes this work, the talented cast, and debate if it is a true comedy.

This is the roughest film this month the crew has tackled. You would think a film using music from arguably one of the , if not THE greatest rock bands of all time would be a slam dunk. Well this one is not even a free throw. The Crew cuss and discuss this musical that most of the members did not enjoy at all. Tune into a riot of a discussion. Ian's Site: https://www.kickseat.com
