Must Have Missed It: Pan's Labyrinth

Once upon a time, when the woods were young, they were home to creatures who were full of magic and wonder.

And once upon a time, when this podcast was young, it was home to content that was adult and contained spoilers. As it was, so it will always be.

Josh and James follow the fairy into the maze and try to navigate Pan's Labyrinth, Guillermo del Toro's Academy Award-winning 2006 adult fantasy film. Adult fantasy as in the genre of fantasy for adults, not as in... Anyway, Josh and James discuss the brutality of the violence in this historically-set fairy tale and give props to the costuming and makeup professionals for the truly stunning character design of the Faun. In Awards Season, Josh and James confront their director-centric bias for the MVP Award before James crowns the youngest-ever MVP in the history of the podcast. Meanwhile Josh repeatedly chooses multiple winners for his awards, while James tries to figure out how he even feels about this movie. 

They said that when Must Have Missed It finished recording in the studio, they smashed their watches on a rock so that the world would know the exact hour and minute of their runtime.
