Molly Movie Club

Today’s episode is a little bit different than usual. As part of the Kickstarter for our graphic novel series Meow the Infinite, we promised our backers we would make a special “Making of” podcast. We figured it made sense to post it to our Molly Movie Club podcast feed!
For those unfamiliar, Meow the Infinite is an all-ages graphic novel adventure series that spans over 700 pages total. Meow is inspired by the movies we grew up watching, and our love for classic adventure films of the 80s and 90s (if you’re a long-time listener of Molly Movie club, you’ll know we love movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, and E.T. The Extraterrestrial). Meow is our attempt to capture a little bit of that magic. We started working on it back in 2017, and the Kickstarter campaign for the final book ran last year. We’re so happy that the story is finally complete and available for everyone to read.
If you are just hearing about Meow the Infinite for the first time and want to check it out, we have digital versions available for purchase worldwide, and physical copies of Book One, Book Two, and Book Three available on Amazon in the US.
As always, thanks for listening. We’ll be back soon with another regular episode of Molly Movie Club!

Today’s movie is The Odyssey directed by Christopher Nolan.
Long-time listeners of Molly Movie Club will know our mixed feelings on Christopher Nolan’s movies, and The Odyssey is no different… except, it is. The cinematography (something that Nolan and DP Hoyte van Hoytema usually excel at) was surprisingly bad, while things Nolan often struggles with were actually pretty good. Overall, we think it’s a movie worth seeing, despite some major flaws.

Today’s movie is The Neverending Story directed by Wolfgang Petersen.

We both like aspects of The Neverending Story, but ultimately the movie fails to deliver. It starts out strong, with an engaging story and creative visuals, but it’s ultimately let down by an unfocused plot that seems completely confused about what the movie is trying to say.

We were both pleasantly surprised by this 2007 Disney movie. While the novel did all of the heavy lifting for the story, this movie is a faithful adaptation that successfully captures the spirit of the original.
