We will have much more to say about the heroic spirit of this great man as the year & as the awards seasons go along. But before we can get into some of the fun of this episode, we try to put our heartache into words. Luckily, we did have an incredibly fun episode to tackle on The New Mutants with Amanda of Swell Entertainment. So do make sure to follow her on Twitter, Instagram & Snapchat at luvu2golka, and if you’re a fan of ours, you have no excuse not to follow her Youtube channel at Swell Entertainment.

Our 40+ minute non-spoiler section calls back to our previous episode with Amanda, Film Sets From Hell w/ Swell (where she told THE BEST Titanic story btw), and we go behind the scenes of the tumultuous journey these new mutants had to finally get this movie into theaters. Then we talk about our triumphant return to the movies before our discussions on acting, writing, directing, evil monologuing, overt sexual metaphors, dragon puppets, drugs, & bears.
