For International Talk Like a Pirate Day (2022), the guys do a quick episode on Gideon Defoe’s The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists, adapted into The Pirates! Band of Misfits (it was retitled in the U.S.).
The Pirates book with Seth’s hand for reference. It’s a combination of a large-ish hand and a very small book.

One of the first titles I ever planned on us covering, yet somehow it’s taken more than eight years to find our way back to it. It’s Harry Harrison’s 1966 novel Make Room! Make Room!, loosely adapted into the classic 1973 movie Soylent Green.

Seth’s son Ethan joins the team, along with Jonathan Watkins from Cinema Sins, to discuss the new movie The Black Phone, adapted from the 2004 Joe Hill short story of the same name.
This time the guys tackle the new adaptation of Firestarter. Unfortunately, James was ill and not able to join us. The good news is that Deanna Chapman from Chat Sematary stopped by for the discussion.

This time, the guys take on some Robert Sheckley in non-English adaptations, namely the 1970 German TV film Das Millionenspiel and the 1983 French film Le Prix Du Danger. Both of these films were adapted from Sheckley’s 1958 short story “The Prize of Peril.”
Of course, we engaged a couple of our friends who were native speakers to help break down the movies. So huge thanks to Cora Buhlert for her excellent breakdown of the German movie, and Emmanuel Dubois for helping us with the French movie.
No rankings this time, just a fun time all around.
