The classic anime movie Ghost in the Shell comes to live-action, but it doesn’t come to life. This week on The B-Movies Podcast, film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold have a heated debate about the exact reasons why the new Ghost in the Shell sucks so much. “Reasons,” as in plural. They may not agree on the exact reason why, but both Bibbs and Witney agree it’s basically awful.
Also this week, Bibbs and Witney review the new drama The Zookeeper’s Wife and speculate about the ramifications of Joss Whedon’s Batgirl movie and Sylvester Stallone departed the Expendables franchise.
Plus, we keep getting your letters, so we’ll keep reading them on the air! Be sure to drop us a line at [email protected] with your comments, opinions, suggestions, the films that inspire you, your picks for the best films of the decade (so far) and your questions about Bibbs and Witney.
William Bibbiani (everyone calls him ‘Bibbs’) is Crave’s film content editor and critic. You can hear him every week on The B-Movies Podcast and Canceled Too Soon, and watch him on the weekly YouTube series What the Flick. Follow his rantings on Twitter at @WilliamBibbiani.
