This week we explore two animated films that have been remade into live action with the 1986 film based on the TV series that was based on the Hasbro toys: The Transformers: The Movie and the 1989 Roald Dahl adaptation The BFG. There is also a very special cameo from the great Adam Rees who you can find some of his writings here NB: There were a number of audio issues in recording, they have been fixed as best as possible in the edit but some glitches still occur. Timings for this week are: The Transformers: The Movie (02:23) The BFG (33:38) Follow us on social media: Instagram Twitter Threads Bluesky Letterboxd Facebook Email: [email protected] Support Film Stories Podcast Network on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/simonbrew Twitter: @filmstories Facebook/Instagram/Threads: Film Stories Website: https://filmstories.co.uk/ Gothamlicious by Kevin MacLeod Link License Leave us a review on Podchaser or Apple Podcasts!
