** SPOILER FULL PODCAST** This new series will cover a handful of Rom-Com's from South Korea and China. We have a guest to kickoff the series, Eontalk! We asked him to bring along his own pick for the series, and he did not disappoint. On your Wedding Day (2018) feature's plenty of laughs, just the right amount of romance, and enough nostalgia to reel you right back into the real world. A special thanks you to Eon for setting the bar on next list of Rom-Com's. A little correction: This is not wh...

** SPOILER FULL PODCAST** The last movie covering this series ends on a high note! Released in 2017, the story follows an emotionless high school student who be-friends a dying classmate. She takes him on an adventure to full fill all her last wishes in life until she dies of terminal illness. Despite the misleading title, this movie is full of some laughs, happy memories, sad moments (expect tears), and a romance? Somehow this became our favorite movie in the disaster series, it even made D.K C...

** SPOILER FULL PODCAST** The critically acclaimed Manga and Anime adapted series from Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata has a live action adaptation from 2006. Although there have been many live action remakes, we decided to go back to the beginning. D.K is rather familiar with the series, whereas Sean is not. The biggest question, does this set a good impression? (It's likely most of you will so no) Next week: I want to eat your Pancreas. Full Series list: Kids on the Slope Bakuman Usagi Drop Rur...

** SPOILER FULL PODCAST** Usagi Drop (2011) is a movie with a lot of fluff! It is light on the eyes, a tug on your heart (if you have a heart), and full of scenes with an adorable little girl named Ren. We start to question if this series will end up being a total disaster or not? Further spoiler, we enjoyed it, so hear how and why we fell for this story. On the next movie for the series is Lee's pick Rurouni Kenshin ( Origins, not the sequals). Full series list: Kids on the Slope Bakuman Usagi ...

This is the first discussion on a series of Bong Joon-Ho's filmography, we're calling the Bong Joon-Ho Cast. Next, we will cover "Memories of Murder". Fact Checks! - It's Bong Joon...
