Welcome to another off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This week, our hosts take trip to Yorktown via Lin Manuel Miranda's Broadway sensation Hamilton! It was by far our most requested off season tour stop and on top of providing a few production insights to the show and Joanna sharing her knowledge of the play's production, the crew spends a good deal of time sharing personal memories and trying to dig into what it is about musicals that make them a special form of storytelling and adaptation.
THIS WEEK'S TIMECODES:
0:00:00 – Intro, Game of Thrones News
0:14:58 – Hamilton and Musicals
1:24:54 – Bubbling/Fall Preview Preview

It's the seventh off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This week, our hosts take trip to Japan for Laika stop motion studios newest feature Kubo and the Two Strings, which isn't adapted from anything, but is the fourth beautiful stop motion movie from the studio that all three hosts love, even if they aren't huge blockbuster hits. It's finally CRAFTSMANSHIP appreciation week on Storm Of Spoilers, as we examine how Laika adapts Neil Gaiman books to entire cultures to the screen to tell us grand stories about love, loss and being an outsider.
Here is that animation from Fantasia 2000 that Da7e mentions.
Here is that Boxtrolls end scene that Neil mentions.

0:00:00 – Intro, Game of Thrones News

It's the sixth off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS! This week, our hosts travel back into their own pasts to see how it stacks up against Netflix's Sci-Fi/Horror/80s series Stranger Things. They all have thoughts on how successful this "homage" to the 1980s is and – of course – some crazy crackpot theories about what happened and what WILL (pun intended) happen next season. Joanna and Neil also loop in the new Pete's Dragon movie and Brain K. Vaughn's comic book series Paper Girls to talk about successfully mining a bygone period for fun (or touching) pop culture. THIS WEEK'S TIMECODES:
0:00:00 – Intro, Game of Thrones News 0:10:23 – Nostalgia with Stranger Things, Pete's Dragon and Paper Girls 1:15:12 – Laika Preview!
