COLLAB: Collateral Gaming Video Game Podcast (@CGamingPodcast)

SHOWNOTES: Take that! Collateral Cinema is joined by Collateral Gaming at the defense bench, as we cross-examine Takashi Miike's movie adaptation of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney! Continuing our #Miikeversary celebration this year, we decided it was high time to explore Miike-sensei's take on the courtroom drama visual novel adventure series. Beau and Ash discuss the Ace Attorney film as a Miike work and as a video game movie, comparing and contrasting it with the legendary director's filmography as well as the source material in this case. If you enjoyed our take on this franchise, stay tuned for Collateral Gaming's part of the collaboration event, as we join them for a look at the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy! Or if not... Objection!
