In November, a new Digimon movie was in theaters for only a couple days (one day dubbed and one day subbed). I was blessed to discover a couple of closet Digimon fans among my friends, so three of us went to see it. A sequel or follow-up to Digimon Adventure Last Evolution Kizuna, this movie followed the kids from Digimon Adventure 02. Since it left me with so much to think about, I invited a guest geek Patrick (one of the friends I went with) to discuss it with me on our podcast. Enjoy!
