Episode notes

The shots later in this film of 5,000 children jumping their teenagers. But they're jumping up and down like the rave from the Matrix. We don't see that for a while but it was a highlight of the film for how weird it was. Is there a name for the phenomenon where as you grow up in ages person where you stop considering the protagonists of a movie like this as like crush objects or crutch figures? There must be something to think about though right? Give us a name for this phenomenon.

Enjoy a bonus episode of our spookiest show-within-a-show yet! We read a selection of eight spooktacular books from R.L. Stine's Goosebumps series, and then we realized there was a movie!
