Castle in the Sky

Ready for a blast from the past? Dakota and Anthony, take you on a nostalgic journey back to an anime classic, Hayao Miyazaki's classic anime, "Laputa Castle in the Sky." And what a ride it was! Even with my VR experience, it still felt like the first time. We deconstruct the film, its themes, and how it ties into Miyazaki's career and other Studio Ghibli works. But hey, we don't live in the past. We're also here to share the latest buzz in the world of entertainment. The "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" cast is getting back together for a new project, and we've got our take on the latest Marvel movie, "The Marvels." Back to Miyazaki's masterpiece, Castle in the Sky doesn't get the recognition it deserves. We dug deep into the lost civilizations, the unique perspective on the world that Miyazaki presents and also drew parallels to popular works like Overwatch and Minecraft. And we couldn't wrap up without appreciating the clever world-building, where civilizations live in the sky and the people on the ground are descendants of these flying cities. If you're a Miyazaki fan, a Marvel enthusiast, or just love a good geeky chat, this episode is one you don't want to miss. Join Dakota and Anthony as we geek out about the beauty and depth of storytelling in Castle in the Sky and its impact on the audience.Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbATwitch (Anthony):https://www.twitch.tv/odysseywowMusic:Eric Godlow Beats: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRpkcYps82PdSo0tK5rEIPA

Star Wars: Ahsoka

What if the Star Wars saga, with all its legendary characters and epic arcs, was just a backdrop to a more profound cosmic journey? Welcome to Project Geekology, episode 65 where we peel back the galactic tapestry to explore the untold narrative of the unofficial Star Wars Rebels season five, focusing on Ahsoka's pursuit of Ezra and Thrawn. Alongside our personal updates, we dissect the latest BlizzCon 2023 announcements. We talk about the expanding universe of Warcraft updates, Marvel expansions, and even K-pop collaborations(with Overwatch), displaying the scope of our geeky universe.We kick off our galactic journey with an examination of the dramatic transition from the ghost team to an Ahsoka centered odyssey. We discuss how this shift offers fertile ground for the Ahsoka live-action series to explore the protagonist's complex relationships with her past master and her current apprentice. Our exploration doesn't stop at the screen. We delve into the necessity of understanding the animated Star Wars series, Clone Wars, and Rebels before watching Ahsoka. We argue that while you can still appreciate Ahsoka without prior knowledge, deciphering the intricate web of character development and narrative arches is only possible with a thorough understanding of the animated series. The finale of our episode is a comprehensive dissection of the Rebels finale, a ranking of the Star Wars series, and an enthusiastic anticipation for the future of the Ahsoka series.
