"I'm really glad I saw it once because the reactions in the room, I did feel a little bit, the reactions were kind of like laughing at the film," he said. "It does seem like that the time for that cultural moment has kind of come and gone." He added: "The movie is not loyal to Shannon ... She was wasted on this movie"

The Yakuza series has a new name. "Like a Dragon" is a literal translation of the original Japanese title Ryu Ga Gotoku. Returning to where things started fits the latest release: a remaster of Like a Dragon: Ishin, an action-heavy spin-off set in the Late Edo. The historical setting and standalone story make Ishin a compelling starting point for a series we love. For the back half of the episode, Frush and Plante share their recommendations for listeners preparing to dive into the Game Boy and GBA games now available on Nintendo Switch Online.
