DCOMstructed: Halloweentown

A very happy Spooky Day to all who celebrate. For this momentous annual occasion, we present to you a preview of our new series, DCOMstructed, a monthly breakdown and discussion of Disney Channel Original Movies, or DCOMs. As is the season, our choice for this here holiday is none other than Certified BangerTM Halloweentown!

EDITOR'S NOTE: During the commercial break, we listened to an old promo for A Bug's Life as well as a few other Disney Channel liners of that time. Since famously-litigious Disney Corp included the whole-ass track to Baba O'Reily in that promo, we weren't able to include it on the free feed. If you like what you hear and want more of DCOMstructed (or you just want that Bug's Life promo), consider checking out our Patreon at patreon.com/debatethiscast! For $5 a month, you'll get access to the Premium feed, which right now includes our pilot episode we did about Phantom of the Megaplex as well as the entire backlog of our D&D real-play show The Office Drones.

FLAVOR TEXT: Ghost Rider

He's dangerous, he's angry, he's on fire, and he has a skull face covered in the literal fires of Christian Hell. That's right kids, it's time we (finally) break down everyone's favorite #edgelord, Ghost Rider! Fun fact: You may know the Spirit of Vengeance as Jonny Blaze (i.e. Nic Cage in the movie) or Robbie Reyes from Agents of SHIELD. Well, there have actually been 22 documented Ghost Riders throughout Marvel's run of the character, making Ghost Rider one of the oldest and most prevalent figures in the entire Marvel universe!

Watch out you don't cut yourself on all this edgy art referenced throughout the episode: https://imgur.com/a/AyBiFBR
