Juliette Miranda CLOSES THE BOOK on The NeverEnding Story episode 203 GTSC podcast

Gutting the Sacred Cow

The most Gen-X fantasy/fairy tale film finally meets its executioner and her name is Juliette Miranda. The NeverEnding Story sucked in kids to live through a book that had a horse drawn in mud, a wolf who liked children a little too much, a dad who drank raw eggs and orange juice, and a furry llama that did nothing except fly. Joining host Kevin Gootee is king of New Orleans snark, David the Producer. Does Wolfgang Pedersen deserve to have a pedophile wolf eat him for creating this film?

Juliette, David the Producer, and KG also discuss which films have made them tear up as kids or as adults. Also, the trio fire out their favorite fantasy and Pixar movies. What other 80s fantasy films do you like? And what films STILL make you tear up or get sad as an adult?

Let's also see if Chat GPT can FINALLY write better jokes than Kevin Gootee. But most importantly, let's see if Juliette can Gut...the..sacred...cow!
