MOVIE DISCUSSION:
Geek Devotions Website, YouTube, and Comm Talk Podcast.
Dallas from Geek Devotions joins Melvin in discussing M. Night Shyamalan's comic-book inspired follow-up to his break-out film: Unbreakable!
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 33-minutes of Melvin interviewing Dallas about the "Geek Devotions" project; what Dallas and Celeste seek to achieve in reaching out to the world of anime, video games, and netizen-culture; how most geek-experience with spirituality is negative (and they hope to change that); and how fringe, geek communities can satisfy the innate need we all have for community. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- Melvin asks Dallas about Geek Devotion's YouTube presence, which involves a LOT of shows, and how they fulfill their mission statement.
- Dallas had seen Unbreakable as a child, and Melvin wonders if there's anything he reflected on during this rewatch.
- For Melvin, this rewatch was nothing short of transcendental.
- Dallas, "[Unbreakable] feels fresh, but it also feels very real. It feels like a genuine story."
- There's a throughline about the relationship between masculinity, power, and gentleness that is explored in David Dunn's story, and the inclusion of his son Joseph adds more importance to David's decision making.
- Early Shyamalan films ask their audience to be patient with the mundane, and that patience is then rewarded.
- Why the "kids with guns" scene (as Melvin calls it) is so jarring, but also kinda works with the film's theming.
- And, of course, thoughts on the ending.
