  • Refreshing & honest!

    It's a very different honest view from someone from across the pond, who as a affinity for the genre but still their own standards for what they like.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep105 - A Conversation with Kyle Higgins
Q: What was the likelihood of turning Shattered Grid into a live-action or digital series, and what happened with Hasbro?
There were conversations and exploratory pitches for live-action/digital series, but the Hasbro acquisition ultimately paused those plans; the focus shifted to preserving and expanding the comics universe while keeping doors open for future adaptations when the fit is right.
Ep105 - A Conversation with Kyle Higgins
Q: How did you come up with the name Lord Drakkon and the initial concept for the Green Ranger-year-one arc?
The character emerged from a narrative-first approach: Tommy's integration into the team as a lens to explore the world, with the arc evolving from an evil alternate timeline to a fully new Ranger, driven by themes of friendship and teamwork, and the name Drakkon chosen to evoke a powerful, myth-maker aura.
Ep105 - A Conversation with Kyle Higgins
Q: Did you seek out any information from Jason David Frank while writing Power Rangers to incorporate into his story?
Not deliberately, but conversations and behind-the-scenes dynamics with Jason provided incidental insights that sparked ideas and perspectives which found their way into the storytelling, rather than a direct, sourced approach.
Ep101 - A Conversation with Marc Clebanoff
Q: Do you have a particular favorite among producing, directing, and writing, or are they roughly equal for you?
Producing can be challenging and thankless, but it's essential in getting a movie made. Directing and writing have been longtime passions, with writing being the first love and the core driver of my creative work.
Ep101 - A Conversation with Marc Clebanoff
Q: For those who might not be familiar with yourself, would you mind just give us a short breakdown of what you do, sir?
I'm an award-winning filmmaker who started as a writer, then moved into directing, producing, and distributing. I focus on action, and Prisoner of War is my latest project; I'm also involved in the follow-up work and next projects in development.
