Folks, have we got a jam packed episode for you this week. Will and Jared sit down to do two Dunes at the same time! We're covering both of Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi adaptations of the hit novel with Dune (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024).

Does the third (forth?) attempt to bring Frank Herbert's beloved-but-batshit novel to the big screen actually work? Does splitting the novel into two films feel satisfying or like a shameless cash grab? Can Jared ever settle on a pronunciation for Villeneuve'? Listen to find out!

NEXT WEEK ON DEBASER: HEREDITARY (2018)!

Our outro track is The Aki Way by Purrfect.

Will & Jared, avid Godzilla and kaiju stans, are here to discuss the newest film in the Legendary MonterVerse franchise currently topping the box office: Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire!

Does the film surpass Godzilla: King of the Monsters? Or is it simply a serviceable follow up to Godzilla vs Kong? Is the franchise in capable hands of returning director Adam Wingard? What disparaging nicknames does Jared have for the two new kaiju introduced in this film? Can Will and Jared ever correctly identify Gareth Evans and Gareth Edwards?! Listen to find out!

"If you make money from war, you're scum. If you can't make money from podcasting, you're an idiot!"

Will & Jared return to the works of Hayao Miyazaki, and this time they're joined by their good friend Dan, to discuss the Studio Ghibli film Porco Rosso!

This adventurous and romantic film follows the exploits of a World War 1 veteran pilot , who happens to have the head of a pig, as he chases down pirates and avoids the fascist Italian Air Force in the Adriatic Sea alongside his budding young mechanic, Fio.

Why is Porco Rosso an overlooked film in the body of work of Ghibli and Miyazaki? Does this thirty year old animated film hold up to modern standards? Can it hold the attention of children, or should it have committed to being more adult oriented? Was Porco a good movie for someone that sees about three movies a year? Listen to find out!
