Brothers Glenn and Scott Butler (and sometimes guests!) approach media from the perspective of actually trying to enjoy the things we love. Primary areas of interest include movie scores, science fiction, science fiction movie scores, and whatever else strikes our fancy. Formerly known as The Glenn Butler Podcast Hour Spectacular, now an independent podcast. NOTE: The ”explicit” tag is because we tend to use bad words. Well, mostly Scott.

70: The Many Failings of The Time Traveler’s Wife (2009)
In anticipation of the new Time Traveler's Wife series on HBO, Glenn & Scott take a look at the 2009 movie adaptation. They discuss the tightrope walked by the novel's main love story and how the movie fails to maintain that balance, how the main characters feel different in the movie versus the book, how the secondary characters mostly disappear, and how everybody has their idiosyncrasies filed off.
(This episode contains SPOILERS for the entire novel and the 2009 movie, so for anyone experiencing the story for the first time via the new show, listener beware.)
