#137 Pt 2 – How Enjoying Film & Music Differs: Redemption, Blade Runner & Underrated Movies With I Am JACs Musings

JAC; blogger, teacher, podcaster and film buff returns to join Mike this week for the second part of their massive discussion primarily focusing on movies, with a bit of podcasting & nerdy things intertwined!

This week, in part 2 (which was already available to Patreons), JAC & Mike’s discussion on film continues by discussing how consuming & comparing film is different to music, which proceeds to how generations view films differently, Star Wars is briefly mentioned, then the duo talk about Blade Runner & it’s sequel for a short while which leads onto a discussion on redemption and their conversation ends with a discussion on underrated movies!

In case you missed last week, part 1 of their chat started with how JAC got involved with Comics In Motion in his podcasting origin story before delving into a superhero movie discussion which then leads into JAC’s day-job as a film studies teacher and how that has affected his enjoyment of movies. They then talk about directors including David Fincher & Danny Boyle, and part 1 ends with a discussion on what makes a cult classic.
