This Movie isn't Talked about Enough | Super 8

<p>A lively Mariachi band can make for great entertainment at a wedding, young Pokemon trainers are being raised within Cody’s House, and a discussion of one of the most underappreciated sci-fi films to have come out in the last 20 years; these are the contents of this week’s episode of Parallel Quest. Listen in as Cody and Zach share about the time they saw the movie Super 8 and how it became an instant classic for each one of them. Seeing this movie did not come without a little bit of drama beforehand, though, for Cody and Zach have a history of not-so-great movie theater experiences together. Super 8, definitely delivered in spite of skepticism going in. The film combines nostalgia, tried and true storytelling methods, and a heavy handed theme, which all comes together to make a fun film for people of all ages.</p><p>Watch the show on <a href="https://youtu.be/YZt_IBqz-Y8">YouTube</a></p><p>Buy Zach’s newest book, <i>Something Strange at Grandma’s House: </i><a href="https://www.steellakestudio.com/books">https://www.steellakestudio.com/books</a></p><p>Sign up for our E-MAIL LIST: <a href="https://www.steellakestudio.com/email">https://www.steellakestudio.com/email</a></p><p>TIMESTAMPS</p><p>0:00 Welcome</p><p>0:30 First Time Mariachi Experience</p><p>10:30 Not Knowing anyone at a Wedding</p><p>16:00 Cody’s Kids getting into Pokemon</p><p>29:18 What the Guys are Reading</p><p>40:00 A Question about the Potential Shortcomings of Horror</p><p>45:45 2011 State of the World</p><p>56:21 MAIN TOPIC: SUPER 8 // Summary and Stats </p><p>1:04:00 How they Approached Filming Child Actors</p><p>1:10:00 A Film that Connected us with the Previous Generation.</p><p>1:19:20 Zach’s Redemption Story</p><p>1:23:00 The Importance of the Monster Makeup and Models</p><p>1:27:00 This Movie Reminds us of our Own Childhood</p><p>1:32:00 The Importance of Keeping the Alien Off-Screen</p><p>1:36:11 One of Our Favorite Abrams Films but…</p><p>1:48:40 There aren’t a lot of Movies Like this Anymore.</p><p>1:56:40 Lasting Appeal and Goodby
