We are LIVE at WonderCon 2022!  Blake and Anastasia are joined by Ed Greer and Jamie Jirak to discuss Spider-Man No Way Home, its impact on the super hero genre, how it has made look at older super hero movies, and to debate the question, is the super hero story stronger when we keep the villain alive and/or try to rehabilitate them? 

Jon Barr joins us as we discuss Teen Witch, a wholesome comedy classic with some certain themes and ideas that may not play well to a modern audience, but what will always play to an audience are those song and dance numbers!

Lon Harris (writer for Screen Junkies) joins us this week as we continue our second season of You Can't Do That Anymore.  We discuss Silver Stream, a fun comedy with one giant glaring issue, why this idea was used in the film and why Hollywood continues to do so even though it never is done well or remembered fondly.

Christian Humes (producer and host of The Unranked Podcast) joins us to discus Live and Let Die, one of James Bond's biggest misfires, all the problematic content that is in the movie, and why some of these odd choices were made, and how the Bond franchise managed to recover from it.

Content Warning: This episode is about the movie Caligula, which deals with topics about sex and sexual violence.   Welcome to Season Two of You Can't Do That Anymore!  Our podcast focusing on older movies that may deal with themes or topics that you couldn't do the same way today, and how they could have adjusted these issues.  Season Two kicks off with Matt Dorado and Mak Manson (creators of The Cosmic Game a new interactive audio drama) to discuss Caligula.  A movie funded my Penthouse about the fall of Caligula, and why its overt sexual themes and ideas don't fit and distract from some very good performances.  How the movie could be reworked today and how sexual themes in stories have been done well and done poorly.

West Side Story is a classic musical that brought the medium to the mainstream.  But, even on its original run it was littered with controversy on how it handled its representation and the offensiveness of some songs.  This week we are joined by Rojelio Ovalle (Former content producer of the Oscar-nominated film "Breakthrough"and Emmy winning shows such as Innovation Nation and Lucky Dog) to discuss what does and does not hold up in the classic tale.  What we want from the newest adaptation, and how it is still relevant to modern audiences.

This week we dive into some unique Disney history with The Three Caballeros.  An effort to create animated movie to assist with foreign relationships, which is filled with some good and some bad interpretations.  We talk with Matt Dorado and Mak Manson (creators of The Cosmic Game a new interactive audio drama) to discuss what works in this package movie, what doesn't and the impact its had on animation.  

This week we are joined by Mary Upchurch (Wings With Friends Podcast, Comedian) to discuss Kindergarten Cop.  With a recent screening cancelled due to the current climate we look back to see if it was worth not having the screening, what has aged well in the movie and what hasn't and if you could still make a movie like this today.

We are joined by Sarah Albritton (Sleeping with Sarah Podcast) to talk about Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo.  The movies treatment of disabilities, and  how some of the jokes would hold up in 2021.
