  • Summary

  • CatBusRuss thought about calling the episode “Celebrating Roger Corman-I-May”, but then ThePoeticCritic corrected him by explaining he had left his studio, New World Pictures, by the time they first translated “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind”. But if Roger Corman was not the producing legend who founded that distributor and AIP, would we even have anime in the States? Those cheap Streamline Pictures dubs had to find inspiration somewhere. Our host and his big sister talk about the influence that Corman had on independent cinema and how that led to the careers of at least two auteurs with Best Director Oscars (Ron Howard and James Cameron). With his recent passing, the two also discuss how cinema will now fair without the continuation of the opportunities he was providing to young filmmakers. Is “Resist the Disney machine” is all they can offer?
