“When we put out our coffee table book of Disgusting Shit Boys, he’s the cover…” - Steve on “The Kid” On this week’s episode, the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza continues with a hilarious convo all about one of the more ambitious comic adaptations of all time, Dick Tracy ! Should Beatty really have starred as the titular Dick while also directing this thing? How incredible are all the matte paintings, Sondheim songs, and loud-AF costumes? Is there something in the drinking water in this town or what, what is with all the freaks? And how much chili does Tracy consume in this movie?

Pollard, Charles Durning, Dick Van Dyke, Kathy Bates, Dustin Hoffman, William Forsythe, Ed O’Ross, James Tolkan, Mandy Patinkin, R.G.
