Classic video games and animated movies analyzed by two friends who don't always see eye-to-eye.
Two good friends, Sol and Dave, chat about all the areas of pop culture that tickle their fancy - usually centering around classic video games and animated movies. Sometimes it's civil, sometimes... not so much, but it's always entertaining (hopefully...). Either way, the guys almost always walk away asking the question: "Why Do I Talk to You?"

As promised, this week Sol and Dave return to discuss The Incredibles 2: One of the most eagerly anticipated animated films in years. Coming from the classic that is The Incredibles, this movie has some pretty big shoes to fill and expectations to meet. How does it hold up as a movie in its own right, and can you walk away from this movie feeling satisfied even if you love the original as much as the guys (especially Dave)?

In preparation for discussing Pixar's latest release, The Incredibles 2, Dave and Sol return to what many (especially Dave) consider one of, if not the best, movie in Pixar's extremely successful history: The Incredibles. What makes this movie stand out so much from the pack, and is watching it today still the same treat it was every time the guys have seen it in the past?

Spurred on by a sudden renewed interest in Final Fantasy Theatrythm, Sol and Dave take some time in this episode to discuss the odd world of rhythm games. Rhythm games have taken many forms and shapes from the early days of the genre until now. How have some of those games affected the guys, and where do they see the genre finding a niche in the future?

On this episode, Sol and Dave get a chance to talk about something relevant again as they somehow both made time in their schedules to see this summer's biggest blockbuster, Avengers: Infinity War, in theaters. Expectations were all over the place for this one, but it's hard to remember any movie event that had this much buildup leading up to it. How did Marvel handle the mashup of so many universes and strong characters in a single movie, and how did the movie hold up in its own right?

Back by popular demand, Dave and Sol return to video game music to discuss their top 6 VGM tracks written by western composers. Japanese composers tend to get all the spotlight with video games' roots and greater cultural impact stemming from the Land of the Rising Sun, but plenty of excellent composers with western origins have taken a crack at it as well, with some exceptional results.
