Show Notes
Bong Joon-Ho's adaptation of Edward Ashton's Mickey7 provides a colorful and hilarious look at a dystopian future, but how does the sharper social commentary stack up to the novel's more philosophical themes? In episode 340, Join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they react to Mark Ruffalo's on-the-nose performance, get lost in the sauce with Toni Collette, get into the garbage cycler with a little goblin performance from Robert Pattinson, and finally cast their votes on which was better: the book or the movie!
