As a special feature of The Fanbase Weekly podcast, the Fanbase Feature focuses on and celebrates a specific element of geek culture.

In this Fanbase Feature, The Fanbase Weekly co-hosts Bryant Dillon and Phillip Kelly (writer, filmmaker, and Fanbase Press Contributor) are joined by special guest Damian Dicarlo (Retro Game Night podcast, Making a Geek podcast) to participate in a thorough discussion regarding Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991) in light of the film’s 30th anniversary, with topics including the decision to make the film less brooding and violent than the original, the adjustments to the cast, and more. (Beware: SPOILERS for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II abound in this panel discussion!)

Cast members: Phillip Kelly (writer, filmmaker, and Fanbase Press Contributor), Damian Dicarlo (Retro Game Night podcast, Making a Geek podcast), and Bryant Dillon (Fanbase Press President, writer of Identity Thief, Something Animal)
