Ep 68 - Finding Nemo

DISNEY
About this episode

This week we're heading out in search of a clownfish with a dodgy fin.  Join your favourite Disney Podcasters – Ellie, Ethan, and Ian - Georgia's locked up in a fishtank in Sydney – as we hang ten on the East Australian Current towards Sydney in Finding Nemo.  Questions we asked this week include: How long did the pitch meeting for this have to be?  Who was the original cast voice actor of Marlin? Why shouldn't we say that all drains lead to the ocean? Who was the one critic that said this was a bad movie and what was their excuse? Which voice actor was released from the project after refusing to emulate their iconic sitcom voice?  Why was the shark called 'Bruce'?  How does Ethan not know how long Robbie Williams has been famous for?  For a second straight week we ask whether New Zealand is bigger than Australia? and what motivated director Andrew Stanton  

So, catch up on some great Disney content and then join the conversation (@talkthemickey), Instagram (@talkingthemickey), or on our Facebook page (@talkingthemickey).
