For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Zoe Rose Bryant & returning guest Destiny Jackson. Today, we're discussing the latest film from director Rob Marshall, another in the long line of Disney live-action remakes, "The Little Mermaid," starring Halle Bailey, Jonah Hauer-King, Daveed Diggs, Awkwafina, Jacob Tremblay, Noma Dumezweni, Javier Bardem & Melissa McCarthy. What did we think of the transition from animation to live-action for such a beloved story, the performances, the songs, and the visual effects? Please tune in as we discuss these points and more in our review. Thank you, and enjoy!

"The Little Mermaid"

Philip and Jodi are joined by 'The Little Mermaid'-superfan Lara Akal to review the 2023 'The Little Mermaid' from Disney. This film reimagines the 1989 Disney animated original in live action with a fresh cast and additional songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda. Alan Menken returns to score and Howard Ashman's legendary lyrics have been revived once again for an ambitious encore. This latest adaptation of a Disney classic is sure to be one of the most celebrated, despite having its share of criticism and controversy. The mermaid Ariel is a princess of peerless song and beauty and seeks to build a bridge with the world above her--the brave, seafaring Prince Eric being the perfect partner with whom to do so. The magic of the underwater realm can afford her the ability to exist on land, but her hastily-chosen spellcaster has ulterior motives that could spell doom for Ariel and her father's kingdom.

Episode 85: The Little Mermaid (2023)

Artist: Humanist 
Guest Artist: Dave Gahan
Album: "On The Edge Of A Lost And Lonely World"
Original Release Date: 2024

This song is a tribute to Mark Lanegan.
Rob Marshall, Lanegan's friend and Humanist leader, tells how “Brother” was born:

  “A week after Lanegan left, Ed Harcourt approached me regarding one of the musical ideas he had shared. He remembered Mark's habit of affectionately calling his closest allies “brother.” “That’s what he always called me too.”

Here I share the excellent version of Fdieu.
