On this very special episode of the MacGuffin Guild, we're gonna climb aboard the Hispaniola and set sail with Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins... in Treasure Island.
This classic 1950 Family Adventure stars Robert Newton, Bobby Driscoll, Basil Sydney, Walter Fitzgerald & Denis O'Dea. Directed by Byron Haskin.
We're gonna discuss International Talk Like a Pirate Day, the works and major impact of Byron Haskin, Violence in Disney Movies, Blind Frankenstein and Robert Newton's insane Pop Culture influence.
We'll dig into the Tragedy of Bobby Driscoll, The Misfits, Tina Fey's Niece, getting a hearse towed from New York City, comparing punk rockers to pirates and Muppet Penis Jokes.
We'll also get into Justin's favorite Pirate movies, we'll spend some time with our good friend Fatt Matt. As well as the WORLD PREMIERE of one of his short stories, inspired by this film.
I'm Pat Dougherty and as always I'll be joined by my fellow
MacGuffin's Justin Jones and Mike Antonio. Our theme song was written
and performed by Jordan Vincent. Come with us on a swashbuckling adventure... in Treasure Island.
