S1 Episode 15

Is adapting a video game to a movie really this hard?

Spoiler free until 00:23:05!

For this episode Andrew, Joel, and Steven talk about Sony's Uncharted! While we've seen a recent spate of successful video game to movie adaptations with offerings such as Sonic, Detective Pikachu, and Mortal Kombat is Uncharted a return to form with failed adaptations? Uncharted bursts onto the scene as a high action adventure adaptation from a beloved franchise, but can it measure up? Can Tom Holland shake off the Spiderman type casting and expand his repertoire? Just how much gold is at stake? And what's up with Hollywood and assuming wood is a permanent construction material? We look at all these questions and more in this episode!
