Read VS Watch

Hosts DeeAnn and Scott will be reviewing, comparing, discussing a book and its film adaption with an added twist….One host (likely DeeAnn) will only read the book and the other host (99% Scott) will only watch the movie. Why? To finally put to rest the ongoing debate on whether a book or the movie is better! It is inevitable, there will be spoilers.

    Jaws R1

    Send a text HELLO!!!   Where the hell have we been??? Busy with life but missing the luxury of reading and watching. Thought with summer this one would be appropriate, 1974 Peter Benchley classic and subsequent 1975 Steven Spielberg movie, Jaws.  Just when you thought the beach was safe…it is well at least from the main character….listen to us and find out why. We will post R2 in two weeks and are very much trying to get back to a regular schedule. Thank you to those who reached out, it makes us like doing this even more. Happy summer everyone!

    Poor Things R2

    Send a text Here comes Round 2 of the 2023 Oscar winning movie and 1992 novel, Poor Things. It’s the second round so there will be lots of spoilers so hopefully you read, watched, did both, neither or just decided to listen. This novel by Alasdair Gray and the movie starring Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef and Mark Ruffalo was quite a discussion. We went a little longer on this episode as DeeAnn got long winded (anticipation for the movie or maybe too much wine).    Join us as we talk all things about the story and the comparisons between the book vs movie.  Spoiler alert: the movie and the book have completely different endings and we will definitely let you know both.

    Poor Things R1

    Send a text Hello Oscars! Thank you for the spotlight on some great movies that were inspired by books. For this episode we will be talking specifically, Poor Things. The Oscar winning 2023 film starring Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef and Mark Ruffalo was adapted from the 1992 Alasdair Gray novel.   Join us as we rushed to tell you how excited we are for this story, (that we did not even finish it before recording this episode) to give some fun information and background about this turn of the 20th century “period piece” IYKYK. Hope you enjoy and we will see you in 2 weeks to talk all things story and spoilers.  And boy there will be some crazy spoilers, so make sure you read, watch, do both or neither and/or just listen to this podcast.

This is the 1994 first novel in the series of many by Janet Evanovich and the 2012 movie adaption starring Katherine Heigl, Debbie Reynolds, Jason O’Mara and John Luguizamo -just to name a few.

    One For The Money by Janet Evanovich R1

    Send a text Another older but …gooder(???) story about a Jersey girl turned bounty hunter in this 1994 first novel in the series of many by Janet Evanovich.  Join us we discuss why the hugely successful series with protagonist Stephanie Plum and the subsequent move with Katherine Heigl, Debbie Reynolds, Jason O’Mara and John Lequizamo have such different outcomes.  Why is there over 30 books written in the successful book series but only one movie made?   Scott and DeeAnn are on the case.  Listen to Round 1 for all things background and we will see you again in a couple of weeks for Round 2 for a deeper dive into this light-hearted, romantic, comedy set in Trenton, New Jersey.

    Flowers In The Attic by VC Andrews Round 2

    Send a text Here we go again, we are going to keep this train wreck going by really plunging into the “nitty gritty” of VC Andrews’ first novel and most infamous 1979 story, Flowers in the Attic along with the 2014 screen version starring Heather Graham and Ellen Burstyn.   As we said for Round 1, this is a super sensationalized story about family dysfunction.  If you do not want to hear about, child abuse, sexual assault, (and a lot more) again not the story for you. If you are still game,  join this marketed-to-young- adults jaw dropping tale!  Also we do want to add that there is some terminology used by us that we realize there is a better preferred choice but we were in the moment and again we are talking about a very fictional, dramatic, over-the-top story that even our Gen Xer minds are trying to digest.  You have been warned - we do joke (it’s fiction remember) so listen with a grain of salt and humor or a groan if the joke is too much.    Thanks for listening and please subscribe!

    Flowers In The Attic R1 V.C. Andrews

    Send a text Oh boy, this is quite the episode. If you know nothing about VC Andrews and her first and most infamous 1979 story, Flowers in the Attic, this may not be the episode for you.  Scott and DeeAnn dive into all things book as well as the 2014 screen version starring Heather Graham and Ellen Burstyn.   This is a very Over-theTop, sensationalized story about family dysfunction.  If you do not want to hear about, child abuse, sexual assault, (and a lot more) again not the story for you. If you are still game,  join this marketed-to-young- adults jaw dropping tale! No wonder why Gen X shock value bar is so high (and littered with sarcasm of course). You have been warned - no Goody Two Shoes allowed for this one;) Thanks for listening and please subscribe! Email us at RVWPodcast@gmail.com
