    Episode 57 - Last Look (by Charles Burns)

    Hello! This time, our hiatus was completely not our fault! I've been sitting on this episode for like three weeks but I didn't have time to edit it until like, today (you can tell at certain points, like the time I refer to Metroid Dread as "having come out last week" or the new Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie as "not having a trailer yet"). Have fun, I think it's a pretty good podcast! Of the ones we've made, maybe one of the better ones. Discussed: -Portrait of a Lady on Fire -Metroid Dread -The Last Look Trilogy by Charles Burns -Ranking Every Modern Disney Animated Film, with Nik Protopapas Support Out of Our Heads by contributing to their Tip Jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/out-of-our-heads
