I'm so pumped to be back in Westeros!
Released at the height of GRRM's powers "The Hedge Knight" is the basis for the hit HBO show #AKnightoftheSevenKingdoms
In our return to Westeros we talk GoT as a franchise, the odd expectation around other writers taking over, & the Winds-of-Winter-delay fan hateโคต๏ธ

Just one of four FMK games @rachaelkjones.bsky.social brought to our Frankenstein episode ๐
Wuthering Heights may be the only adaptation in recent memory that outdoes Del Toroโs Frankenstein when it comes to WILDLY different reactions & reviews on my timeline.
Iโll hold my thoughts until we can get to it on @inktofilm.bsky.social
HEY come hear us debate the merits of Del Toro's Frankenstein! Had such a great time hanging out with the thoughtful and hilarious ITF crew for this one
Guillermo Del Toro's adaptation of Frankenstein has sharply divided fans of Mary Shelley's classic, but does it divide this podcast? Author @rachaelkjones.bsky.social joins the show again to help us discuss a reanimated classic!

Oops, Gladiator was actually out in 2000
Fun question! I have a few that stand out because they were some of my favorite/most memorable theater-going experiences.
The Matrix (1999)
The Fellowship of the Ring (2003)
Jurassic Park (1993)
Gladiator (2002)
Is Hamnet (2025) *too* sad? Is it โgrief p*rn?โ Hereโs why we donโt think so, and why the movie earns the emotions it brings out in the audience. This clip is from our full episode on the movie available now wherever you listen to podcasts and on YouTube. #hamnet #jessiebuckley #chloezhao #inktofilm
Sometimes a profound catharsis can found through art, shared grief, and loving adaptation. Here's why even more people need to be talking about Chloรฉ Zhaoโs "Hamnet" (2025) โคต๏ธ

Iโm just saying that maybe โthe death of the authorโ limits our understanding of the human element whose value is becoming even more clarified in the modern age of AI slop. #hamnet
We're back for Season 10! We start out with a spoiler-free review for the Hamnet-curious.
Grab your character sheet and get over hereโweโve got 2-liters, chips, and mom says the basement is all ours for the night!
Roll initiative with us, Colton, & Andrew as we talk Stranger Things 5, try to explain Conformity Gate, and reflect on the showโs legacy now that itโs all over.
working on a new unified theory of american reality i'm calling "everyone is twelve now"

I have noticed a lot of my followers here are also big movie buffs and avid readers. THIS is the podcast for you. Luke & James are a writer and a filmmaker and review books and their adaptations in a very entertaining and educational way. Highest recommendation for lovers of books & movies.

Although these fine gents have been doing the podcast for a number of years, it was only 2025 was when I first got into listening to the podcast, with their episode on CONCLAVE
It's time to wrap season 9 by taking a final look at the best/worst adaptations we covered this year!
Even if you've never listened before, this episode is a good way to get an overview of what Ink to Film is all about.

Before A24, David Lowry, and Dev Patel's "Green Knight," Stephen Weeks made "Gawain and the Green Knight," a movie which I'm willing to BET directly influenced "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." They've never confirmed it, but I think it's undeniable!

We recently released our 365th episode, which means could now listen to a different ep of Ink to Film every day for a year ๐คฏ
I don't recommend it, since you'd almost certainly be driven mad, but it's now technically possible!
In the age of AI slop, how about we celebrate a film that reminds us of the awesome power of handcrafted art?
Come geek out with us about #Akira!

When AKIRA came out it blew open the door to the English-speaking market and changed manga & anime forever.
This time let's discuss volumes 2 & 3 of the manga series by #KatsuhiroOtomo and explore its legendary legacy.

These are my first steps into the world of Akira! (I haven't seen the anime yet)
I didn't expect to say this, but could the problem with Edgar Wright's adaptation of THE RUNNING MAN be that it was *too faithful* to the book? Let's discuss โคต๏ธ
