About 1/2 through, fellas. Great ep. Nice choices. I love THE IRON GIANT and I hope there is a BD in 2015, this year was the 15th anniversary (Lee, see it soon!). And Goldsmith is just a legend (SO many scores to choose from and so diverse).
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying it! I could harp on about Goldsmith all day, to be honest. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a Goldsmith-centric episode at some point in the future. :D
DeleteFinished up (had to listen in a few separate segments, due to my schedule). Nice job keeping my attention, even though I'm less into animation than either of you. Love the music cues and sound f/x that break up the show and the music choices were mostly great (don't love them all). Perhaps slightly lengthy but I'm guilty of that too on my podcast and you guys at least mostly stay on subject. A Goldsmith special would be excellent and if you can handle 3 hosts, count me in!
