This is the podcast about movies, videogames, and the sparks that fly when those worlds collide! Each week, Steve Guntli, Jennifer Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm will watch a movie and then play the video game based on that movie to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, similarities, and differences between the two mediums to see how they complement, or contradict, each other!

  • JBan

    Just listened to your jackass episode. Really interesting. If I could offer an unsolicited criticism, Jban saying the movie was boring over and over again is not compelling content. After a while, it becomes redundant and annoying. Say it once and move on.

  • Excellent podcast. Don't pay attention to the other 1 star review. That guy likes to drink cat diarrhea from a bucket in his basement. Great job CinemArcade!

  • Genuinely Funny and Informative

    When the Ultra 64/Wii-Universe podcast ended it left an enormous nerd-shaped hole in my heart, so I am so excited to report that Steve’s new venture Cinemarcade is also a must-stream delight. He and his co-hosts are hilarious and informed and just make for a fun listen. Can’t wait for you to do Speed Racer for the Wii! Both the movie and game are criminally underrated

Mad Max
Q: Was this choice because of the vroom vroom beep beeps?
Yes, this was because of the vroom vroom beep beeps, and because I've been wanting a reason to play the other game that we'll play next week.
