We get nostalgic this week as we look at the world through rose-tinted glasses. Join us as we take a look at good and bad nostalgia, video games that rely on nostalgia, Golden and Silver Age comics, and old versus new animation. Reviews – Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae, Tokyo […]

Keyframe 07 – Let’s Go Fishing!

Kumiko the Treasure Hunter – Cinema Eclectica Podcast 11
Ladies & Gentleman, Mr Mark Rylance! This week we give the “Film of the Week” a big old miss, and instead of covering Liam Neeson’s latest outing, we take a look at the hordes of action movies that feature “veteran” actors (i.e. pensioners), in their lead roles (a.k.a. Geriaction). We […]

Bit Panel 04 – It’s Not Supposed To Do That
Someone spilled our jar of glitching powder so this week’s episode features poor collision detection, moving sideways instead of forwards, grammatammatically incorrect dialogue, and a whole bunch of other unintentional wierdness that can be found in video games. Meanwhile Ben shows of his kickflips in OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood (PS4), […]
Keyframe 06 – Sequels, Spin-offs & Drool
This week the news was full of sequels, reboots and spin-offs – which made us curious. At what point should you stop milking a franchise, and when should it be laid to rest or just put to one side to remain dormant for a decade or so? What’s the best […]
