This month's movie is Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva! This movie was surprisingly decent, but felt a little lacking in places, and with plenty of room to riff. Not enough puzzles for a movie based on puzzle games, and it's weird how they made a death game scenario where nobody dies. Next Episode: Warcraft (2016) Twitter | Discord Dan | Maxie
This month's movie is Pokemon: The First Movie! Local Mewtwo expert Emory guests to help us decipher who Mewtwo, as well as discuss the Mario movie trailer and the landscape of being a child in the year 1999. We forgot to rate this one.

After much delay, we bring you Hardcore Henry! DOOM (2005) was such a rough movie that we needed to find a good movie to watch, and we went with this one! In a bold and experimental approach to filmmaking, this movie is shot entirely in first person and meant to mimic an FPS. It works, but maybe it needs some more cooldown on its (extremely good) action. Our Rating: 5/5 Adaptation 4/5 Film Next Month: Pokemon: The First Movie (1999) Twitter | Discord Dan | Maxie
This month's movie is the 2005 Doom film! There are three important things you should know about this movie: 1) This movie is based on the then-most-recent game in the series, Doom 3 2) Actually this movie is based on a more shitty version of Alien 3) This is somehow the single worst film we've ever covered, so much so that we have to break our rules in order to get something palateable in our systems.

This month's movie is the second film in the Paul W.S. Anderson Resident Evil film franchise, Resident Evil Apocalypse! Milla Jovavich is back to kick ass and this time some characters from the games are here too! Nemesis is the true hero of this movie.

This month's movie is the 1986 Mario OVA! Years before the live-action film there was another Mario film. This one was an hour-long OVA that never reached western shores. Animated and true to the source material, it was certainly a holy grail of mario media. Fairly recently, the entire film was restored and put on the Internet Archive for the public to view. How does it compare? The answer may surprise you! Our Rating: 4/5 Adaptation 3/5 Film Next Month: Resident Evil: Apocalypse (guest-starring Morgan Cursegoat!) Twitter | Discord Dan | Maxie | Skye
This month's movie is the 2010 Prince of Persia film! This is our first Disney film for the podcast, and you can tell because Captain Jack Sparrow is in this one! Featuring a cast of middle eastern characters played by white actors and set in what is basically a fantasy setting with real-life names and locations, it's not that great, but at times is a pretty decent adventure movie.

This month's movie is Dōbutsu no Mori! The Animal Crossing movie! We sit back, relax and vibe with this wonderful film. It is such a good adaptation that it can convey the themes and appeal of Animal Crossing arguably even better than the games can!

This month's movie is the 2007 Hitman film! Agent 47 is caught in a body double conspiracy while being hunted down by his own organization. There's a lot of good moments but ultimately it's less than the sum of its own parts. Our Rating: 1/5 Adaptation 2/5 Movie Next Month: Dōbutsu no Mori (2006) Twitter | Discord Dan | Maxie
This month's movie is Ryu Ga Gotoku! It's the Yakuza movie! It's kind of insane, it's kind of Pulp Fiction, it's kind of mostly about a couple of of teen robbers. It sure does have Goro Majima though! Not to mention CG helicopters, daip'd up Nishiki, and Kazama! Dan's Rating: 4/5 Movie 1.5/5 Adaptation Maxie's Rating: ?/?
