While going to find tuning with Drew Taylor, your one-stop shop when it comes to animation news and commentary,

I'm Drew's co-host, Entertainment writer Jim Hill, and he and I are recording this week's show on

Thursday, October 7th, 2021. This week's episode should be posted on Tuesday, October 12th,

day after Columbus Day, or if you'd prefer in Disney's People Day. Do we have a preference,

Drew? I think in Disney's People's Day sounds a lot better than Columbus Day. Although Columbus

has some good movies, I rewatched 1492 Conquest for Paradise, the Ridley Scott movie.

Very maligned, but you know, in its day, but it has some really interesting elements, so

I would look at that. What was the other one? Remember there was another Columbus movie that came

out around the same time? Was that the one with Tom Selleck as like King of Spain? Yeah, what is...

I feel like that was a Christopher Reeve who played Columbus?

Oh, I don't know. I get it. It was one of those moments where it's like, yes, you have the two

competing projects going after the one tiny audience segment that will actually be interested in it.

All right. It was George Korraface as Christopher Columbus, and you're right. Tom Selleck

as King Ferdinand V, obvious casting there, and yeah, a lot of the same people that produced

the Superman movie. That's where I'm getting the Christopher Reeve crossover, but that was

Christopher Columbus, the Discovery, and the premiere took place the same time as 1492 Conquest

of Paradise, so... The family that made the Superman movies, and I love how they went from Superman

to they made Santa Claus the movie, and now when I connect Superman to Santa Claus, the first person

I immediately think of after that is Columbus. Right. Well, apparently it was, the movie was so hard

to make that one of the brothers said, I know after this, I'll never make movies again. So there you go.

Wow. Hooray for Hollywood. Okay. Wow. While speaking of significant things that happened

on or about the state, we are just when the show posts, it'll be a day after Jodie Benson's 60th
