Welcome to the latest episode of our official podcast, The Film Stage Show. This week, staff writer Danny King, associate editor Nick Newman, and I review discuss the disturbing trend of turning classic fairy tales into big budget spectacles. Then, we talk about the lastest entry into this genre, Oz the Great and Powerful. To wrap up, we take a look at the films coming to theaters and DVD in the coming week, which include Hitchcock, Upside Down, Ginger and Rosa and more. Then we give you our random recommendations of things we watched on our own this week.
