Till All Are One | The Transformers: The Movie (1986) | Ep 37
In this episode of Reel Jumpers, Nikki takes the lead to explore the origins of the Transformers toys and the lasting impact of the 1986 animated classic, Transformers: The Movie. The crew breaks down the franchise's evolution from Japanese toy molds into the film that traumatized a generation. Most importantly, the team takes time to honor the life and legacy of the late Peter Cullen, whose iconic voice as Optimus Prime created a noble, fatherly hero who taught millions to be strong enough to be gentle.

MewTwo LARP's as Shadow the Hedgehog | Pokémon: The First Movie (1998) | Ep 36
Jumper Nikki has once again highjacked the command console and brought us along for a look at one of her favorite films. Listen to the crew discuss ludicrous power levels, questionable morals, and awesome old-school cell animation. Join us as we unpack the deep existential dread of a genetically engineered psychic cat with a serious god complex. We also highly recommend grabbing some tissues, because we're still not over the emotional trauma of Ash Ketchum's brief stint as a stone lawn ornament.

Godzilla's Big Beach Cookout | Godzilla vs the Sea Monster (1968) | Ep 31
This movie was a huge nothing burger with a side of lobster bisque, our host forced us to watch it anyway.
