The study of cultural myth. Myth, the stuff of legends, lends itself perfectly to film. Indeed many a Disney classic is based on a famous myth from one culture or another. Though perhaps the word most readily conjures up the classical Greek and Roman gods and demons, it can cover a wide swath. This week on CinemaJaw we get all Joseph Campbell on you as we tackle our favorite Mythological Movies. The subject of the films is mythological&#8230; not the films themselves&#8230; these are real movies&#8230; You know what we mean!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2890\" src=\"http:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-225x225.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-260x260.jpg 260w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-414x414.jpg 414w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-266x266.jpg 266w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Otterbacher-CinemaJaw-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Joining us is a film advocate of mythological proportions. While it&#8217;s true we have had a Mythbuster on the show before, this week we welcome back <a href=\"https:\/\/orangechairproductions.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Professor John Otterbacher<\/a> (aka Professor O.).\u00a0John Otterbacher splits his time between teaching and filmmaking. As a college instructor, Otterbacher has taught at a number of institutions and is currently coordinator for the Cinematography program at Tribeca Flashpoint College in Chicago. He is a board member and serves as Vice President for IFP Chicago and is a member of the Education Advisory Committee for Cinema\/Chicago. More recently, John received his MFA in film from VCFA as part of the inaugural class there. Officially Limited and Father Burke\u2019s Boss Battle are John\u2019s most recent film projects. Moving Parts will be his fourth narrative feature. We talk all about this and more with friend of the show J.O.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_1271\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-2888-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw326.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw326.mp3\">http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw326.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw326.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/?powerpress_pinw=2888-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw326.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"CinemaJaw326.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reviewed this episode: Fish Tank, Pirates of the Caribbean\u00a0&#8211; Dead Men Tell No Tales, Alien Covenant\u00a0 (I for an I) Interested or Ignore: Wonder Woman Trivia: Wonder Woman Movie Trivia CinemaWAR:\u00a0The Alien Franchise is slated for another 2 to 3 films according to Ridley Scott.
