Octobooo Spooktackular 2023: Fright Night (1985/2011) & More

Linus [writing to the Great Pumpkin]: "You must get discouraged because more people believe in Santa Claus than you. Well, let's face it; Santa Claus has had more publicity, but being number two, perhaps you try harder."

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)

In an attempt to affirm Linus' proclamation, we at TBC_afp are diving into cult classic for the season. We are talking about both versions of Fright Night for a compare and contrast. Also in this episode #rip #SuzanneSomers #KeithGiffen #sagaftra2023

Arnoldsploitation: It's Vantastic.

Whether profoundly discussing "What is best in life" (See Conan The Barbarian Speech on Vanquishing your enemies) or diagnosing kindergarteners assurinf that "It's not a tumor" or even putting on your chilling best at menacing Gotham City, there will never ever be enough of Arnold Schwarzenegger aka the Austrian Oak aka Governator.

On this special TBC_afp podcast episode, we run a deep analysis of some of Arnold's early and arguably cult films hits that have paved the way to his blockbuster superstardom. Sit back, enjoy and have a stoogie because Arnold is going to be back!

Syfy's Resident Alien & WandaVision Finale

Getting back into the swing of things can be challenging but thankfully with TBC_afp’s seal of approval, Syfy’s Resident Alien receives our thumbs up in hopes for more episodes down the line and thereby cushioning the stresses of pandemic life a bit easier. Also, in the episode we deliver our closing remarks on Disney Plus’ Wanda Vision finale.

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING REVIEW

Billy Elliot The Musical veteran and babyfaced Brit actor, Tom Holland portrays Peter Parker/ Spider-Man (the third actor in line for the big screen) in an unprecedented partnership between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING.  In a star studded cast, HOMECOMING is prelude to Marvel's Cinematic Universe's "Phase 4", ushering in an era expanding more characters and talent into the genre. 

And yet, with senses tingling, our TBC Fanboys swing into the chill of the night and deep dive into Marvel's universally recognizable flagship superhero.  As it is one of 2017's most highly anticipated movies of the Summer, lesson may stick (pun intended) that "with great summer blockbuster, comes a great tub of popcorn" with obligatory restroom break in the middle of the movie.

Star Wars Special Part I: The Banter Menace.

Somewhere in Park Slope, Brooklyn this may all be happening right now...  From the team that brought you For The Iron Throne and These Things Write Themselves, a conversation unlike any other on your planet... A podcast discussion about a story about a boy, a girl and a universe... TBC gets into some serious drivel covering George Lucas' most influential "sprawling space saga about rebellion and romance... a spectacle light years ahead of it's time". Did we mention that it happens to be an "EPIC of heroes and villains and aliens from a thousand worlds... a billion years in the making?" Or did we just rip this entire description off of the original 1976 trailer? Why? Because we could hardly contain ourselves to fit it within one podcast episode. Part 1 of 3 #letthewookiewin
