S2 Ep2: The Lion King with Gavan Casey

The Last One To See

Show Notes

Between talking about imagination-led childhoods full of dinosaurs (and rewatching what you had access to), entering a franchise through its spin-off properties, wanting to lead a #JusticeForSarabi campaign, calling out Mustafa for his Jeff-Bezos-like billionaire complex, disputing the originality of our story in question (nods to both Hamlet and Kimba The White Lion) and Disney villain gaze gays, this episode leaves no stone left unturned on Pride Rock.

And you will definitely not want to miss the big surprise that comes in the outro. This one's a very special episode...

Much like a vampire who has fallen wildly in love with you at first sniff, Twilight was simply inescapable. Like a teenage werewolf, it morphed rapidly, from 50 Shades fan fic to a best selling book to a film tie in, coinciding with the full moon of TMZ gossip culture rising across the horizon, making its young cast some of the most watched people on the planet. That’s enough metaphors stretched to breaking point, we are joined by our friends at The Cinemile to unpick not just a film but a cultural juggernaut, both full of frankly disturbing behaviour.

Danny Boyle, Ewan McGregor, Cameron Diaz, a banging soundtrack, an iconic poster and an absurdly stacked supporting cast. What could possibly go wrong? Well, quite a lot actually.
