Episode 107 - Comrades of Cthulhu Pt. 4

Matt and Ben are own their own this week as they review the D&D movie: Honor Among Thieves. How does it work as an adaptation of a the classic tabletop experience? Does it stand up as a movie outside of all the obvious and more oblique references to the RPG?

Episode 110 - Would You Kindly Listen to the Pod

The Comrades sit down to watch the 2006 Silent Hill movie. Is it as bad as Rotten Tomatoes says it is? Is it a misunderstood masterpiece of adaptation storytelling? Or is it just a pretty mild stock horror film? Let's discuss.

Episode 113 - HiFi Gush

The Comrades are really scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to video game adaptations with this one. What to say about the Angry Birds Movie? Well, for starters, it is deeply unfunny and will make your kid an anti-social weirdo. Surely this thing wasn't good/profitable enough to warrant a sequel...

Episode 114 - Don't Worry, Be Angry Bird

The Comrades bring together a grab bag of gaming news from the month of November. Elon Musk sticks his grubby little fingers in every gaming story, Xbox rolls out a brilliant new ad campaign, Sony intends to buy FromSoftware parent company (but only for the anime waifus), and the console war shifts to handhelds.

Episode 115 - Have You or a Loved One Become an Xbox?

We play games for many reasons: to tell stories, build community, and also because they are cool as hell. As our lives grow more alienated and the looming boot of Capital grows to control every sector of our existence, we here at Campaign Comrades are picking up our controllers, rolling some dice, and saying fuck you to the ideology of hate, greed, and domination. Come join us as we game through the revolution!
