An important Disney movie deserves a great podcast!

I missed the Nano-Rail on Tomorrowland when it premiered. I have since come to love the movie and consider it not only one of Disney’s best, but up there with “important” Disney movies. The Tomorrowland Times podcast is the perfect compliment to that film and a real treat in which to listen. The 12-part series breaking down the film practically justifies the entire podcast. Thought provoking and thorough, this podcast is a deep dive into this “budding cult classic” and I eagerly await new content. I hope this podcast never goes the way of the Monitor.

Highly recommended!

Dreamers Stick Together

Excellent stuff as always from Nick and Hastin at Tomorrowland Times! Loved the entire deep dive into the film and I can’t wait for the future of the podcast! Even being as big a fan as I am, I still learned something new every episode. It’s so nice to hear others who love this film as much as I do find different ways to articulate my thoughts and feelings after all these years, as well as challenge some of my preconceived notions. Great work and a wonderful listen!

A Movie Whose Time Has Come and a Podcast Worthy of It!

There are a few films out there that arrive before an audience is ready to receive them…or at least have an expectation that isn’t met…only to later find that it was an expectation that fell short of the film that appeared. Tomorrowland is such a film. Fortunately, Nick and Hastin were there from the beginning…actually well before the beginning…and are providing a rich and thought-provoking review that is worthy of the film…and worthy of your time. Be “prepared to be amazed”. And also, be prepared to be inspired to never give up.
