Joni Thomas (33 KP) rated Swish and Flick: A Harry Potter Podcast in Podcasts

Aug 18, 2018

I found this podcast a few weeks ago and started listening right away. They are reviewing Prisoner of Azkaban right now and I really enjoy hearing their insight into parts of the novel that I didn't really think about before. It's fun to listen to them discuss a story that I honestly expected to know cover to cover. They pick up on things that may have been missed, things that make sense with the context of the later books to reflect on. I like getting all the different opinions offered about characters, scenes, etc.

Bleach is a live action anime movie currently showing on Netflix. Teenage boy Ichigo Kurosaki acquires powers from a wounded female soul reaper and sets about destroying evil soul-eating monstrous spirits called Hollows. After about 40 minutes of listening to the awful English dubbing, I remembered that I could switch to the original Japanese audio track with English subtitles, and my enjoyment of Bleach immediately increased tenfold... Bonkers Japanese action with big ass swords and magical bows and arrows. A slow start but lots of fun towards the end.

Kurt Cobain is at his literal best (1 more)

They play more than just their own music giving the album a diverse sound

This is the ultimate unplugged experience, being challenged only by maybe Alice in Chains. Kurt Cobain is at his literal best. His voice is so powerful throughout the album as he takes on Nirvana classics as well as covers of songs that inspired him, from David Bowie to the Meat Puppets and more. Nirvana Unplugged is essential listening for any rock fan, especially fans of grunge and 90s Alternative.

Logan (76 KP) rated One Past Midnight: The Langoliers in Books

Jan 14, 2019

I've always had fond memories of watching this movie as a child. Listening to the audio book narrated by Wilem Dafoe (who did great job, although the voices for Bethany and Rudy were extremely irritating) was pretty great overall. My biggest criticism is that a couple of the male characters stand out as exceptionally competent while the females are weak and needy, and it makes things feel a little imbalanced. I rewatched the movie after finishing it, and although the effects don't hold up that well, give it a shot anyway!
