Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast travels nine billion miles across the universe in the blink of an eye with David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel and Don Shanahan of Every Movie Has a Lesson! Their destination: Ava DuVernay's A Wrinkle in Time, the big-screen adaptation of Madeleine L'Engle's beloved novel. Will Disney continue its billion-dollar-movie streak with this colorful yet disjointed fantasy about a little girl who travels the universe to find her missing-scientist father? Or might audiences have trouble connecting with the material, despite the looming presence of Her Majesty, Oprah Winfrey?
Speaking of big-screen adaptations, Ian talks about the Music Box Theatre's upcoming "Sci-Fi Spielberg" retrospective--in which some of the legendary director's biggest films return for a limited engagement, before a special 70MM presentation of his latest, Ready Player One!
Episode 299 is truly worthy of your love!
