AKIRA 4K Theater Review, Marvel No-Prize Lore & Star Trek III at 60
The League crew reunites as John Hunt joins Matt Dursin and Clay N. Ferno to break down theatrical re-releases, anime milestones, and vintage comic lore.
We review the 4K theatrical presentation of AKIRA, debating the manga versus movie adaptation and classic dubs. We then unpack comic book history with a rare 1983 Marvel No-Prize book and a Stan Lee "No Thanks" letter, exploring classic continuity fixes and fandom culture. We cap it off by celebrating 60 years of Star Trek with Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and "Amok Time," ranking Enterprise designs and sharing memories from John's run as an IDW Trek colorist.
We continue Gobbling Through Gosling as we take on his re-imagining of the early ’80s hit The Fall Guy. You probably remember the theme song, but you’re probably not prepared for ours. We discuss stunts, Ryan Gosling, and perform several musical numbers for which no stunt doubles were available.

Grab your flask and check out our latest Curbcast, unless you think you’re too good for it. If you do listen, maybe give it a “ha-ha,” or write us an inspirational quote, like, “Tough times remind us that our spirits are strong.” I can’t type a heart emoji here, but I would if I could.
For this year’s War On Christmas Movies episode, we finally tackled the holiday classic Die Hard, also known as the bunko in the tower with the bloody feet. Now we have a podcast. Ho-Ho-Ho.
If you need a pip of a podcast during your Thanksgiving travels, consider the League’s latest episode on Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell’s classic His Girl Friday. We get the slop on the movie, and some funny commentary to boot. And if you don’t like it, well, we got two words for you: Get Out!
The League combines our traditional Halloween episode with a Do-Over as we tackle the 1933 classic The Invisible Man. We also tactfully tackle the subtlties of him walking around naked, and what happens to the food he eats while it digests. It’s very high-brow, so take a listen!
The Gents take off to the Great White North and cover a classic from our youth, Strange Brew, featuring the great Doug & Bob McKenzie. It’s a beauty, eh?
