Episode #57: The GOOD Transformers Movie

The Bat-Jar Podcast

If you had to summarize this week's episode in a few words, they would definitively be "more than meets the eye".

Asian Jon and Average Joe look back on Justice League's second weekend at the box office and cry over what the future of the DC movie universe looks like in light of the news; but is there hope for this franchise?

Then we take a trip back to 1986 to then go to 2005 which is the future but is actually the past for us in 2017 to talk about "The Transformers: The Movie". How does the classic animated series translate to the big screen? What were the reasons for deciding to make a major motion picture about these characters? How does it hold up? Does it compare to the live action films? Does Average Joe get to keep his $50?

Music and audio from "The Transformers: The Movie" is the property of Vince DiCola, Joe Bacal, Tom Griffith, Nelson Shin, Hasbro, Sunbow Productions, Marvel Productions, and Toei Animation.

Special thanks to Jeremy Eckert for our theme song.
