SHOWNOTES: We've got even more anime movie content for you on Collateral Cinema! Following our previous episode on Vampire Hunter D, Ash and Beau are discussing Boruto: Naruto the Movie. Released in 2015, the following year of The Last: Naruto the Movie (which we covered last season), this film serves as an epilogue to the Naruto and Naruto Shippuden anime series, following Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki's son Boruto in the Chunin Exams—a story that would later be readapted into the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga and anime. Is it as bad as reception to the anime series would suggest? Catch our opinions now, and stay tuned for our two-part episode on the Lord of the Rings trilogy in February!

SHOWNOTES: It's Neil Breen time again on Collateral Cinema, as we explore the most recently released fruit of the Breenius—Cade: The Tortured Crossing! The standalone sequel to Twisted Pair, this film follows twins Cade and Cale in a Seven Samurai-esque plot set in an abandoned mental hospital. There's an absolutely kino tiger fight scene, too, as well as Neil Breen using Shadow Clones, and plenty of Breen Screen and stock footage. If that doesn't hook you, I don't know what will. We'll have post-holiday content and a Year in Review episode out soon, as well as our Anime Month reviews of Vampire Hunter D and Boruto: Naruto the Movie, so stay ruined!

Feature Films for Families delivers once again on wholesome whitebread cinema and the true meaning of ButterCreaming, and if that's not enticing enough for you, The ButterCream Gang 2 is inexplicably a parody of adventure movies like Indiana Jones!

SHOWNOTES: On our latest Collaboration Special with Collateral Gaming, we are joined by Craig from Reading Between the Reels to talk Simon West's 2001 film adaptation of Tomb Raider, starring Angelina Jolie! Lara Croft: Tomb Raider is often overlooked in discussions about attempts to adapt video games in cinema, but looking back, it was a memorable action movie in its own right with a vivid performance by its female lead, and definitely worth an analysis today. So, grab your dual pistols and come chill with us as we review the first cinematic portrayal of gaming icon Lara Croft, and stay tuned for Bad Movie December—we'll be covering The ButterCream Gang 2 and Neil Breen's Cade: The Tortured Crossing!

PROMO: Ninety For Chill: The Podcast with CatBusRuss
SHOWNOTES: On the latest episode of Collateral Cinema, Ash and Beau are swinging into a superhero film of 2012 that we can't help but find fascinating: The Amazing Spider-Man, starring Andrew Garfield! While less beloved than other live action incarnations of the character, this version of Peter Parker lives on in our brains, as well as this movie—which came out during a time when studios felt every comic book movie had to be dark and grounded, and makes for some interesting results with the wall-crawler. So, stick around for this review, and stay tuned for our upcoming collaboration with Collateral Gaming on Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)!
