Geeking Off 159: Cool Weather Talk Dos
December 05, 2016 03:16Here's part 2 of the forum results of Madbeard, Steele and Zo. This time, Zo's report on a month of terrible Halloween movies. Also some diversion dialogue regarding Doctor Strange and the current state of Marvel movies. A tangent about the upcoming Wolverine movie somehow led to a tangent of Ryan Murphy shows we don't appreciate (which obviously led to more Pitch Perfect talk. Also, Zo hates Ghostbusters. Lotta hate this time. Sorry. An apt end to 2016, maybe. Download here!
Geeking Off 158: Cool Weather Talk Uno
November 26, 2016 00:34Madbeard, Steele and Zo get a quick Sing Street chat in before resuming the grand Movie Club experiment with a discussion of Capricorn One. We get all this along with a reveal of the next Movie Club pick and, of course, the usual tangents. Download here!
Geeking Off 157: A Short Rhettspite
August 06, 2016 21:20Hey I spoke to Rhett for a couple of hours the other week. Trust me, it was a great conversation that tackled a lot of elements where business and entertainment meet. Please keep in mind it was recorded just a bit ago (during the RNC), so that will explain the anachronisms. Some topics: 1. Melania speech 2. The nature of podcasting 3. Advertising 4. Torrents and password-sharing 5. Streaming vs. networks 6. Netflix strategy 7. Other streaming services (I mention that horror movie one....
Geeking Off 156: Enter the Movie Club
June 19, 2016 05:06So we kick off the Movie Club project with a real winner, if by winner we mean the best case of European child abuse in the 1970s. Fernando Arrabal's Long Live Death is confounding, surreal, thought-provoking, but also quite bad. Even so, it yields stimulating conversation despite mild disagreement on what the film is actually saying. We tangent slightly toward the strength of symbolism generally in films as well as a sober wrap-up talk of our own recent filming project. Download here! If ...
Geeking Off 155: All Over the Place
April 28, 2016 05:02We resume a conversation about Batman movies with a little bit of 10 Cloverfield Lane for good measure. Ultimately, however, the conversation angles more toward our culture of amateur film criticism and how that affects storytelling in the 21st century. It's our usual drivel. This was recorded the same night as Geeking Off 154. You get Madbeard, Steele and Zo. Download here!
Geeking Off 154: Superb at Rog Ueo Ne
April 26, 2016 02:15The Batman/Superman conversation meandered off to Netflix, Stephen King, Spike Lee, The Cure, David Cross, Sally Field, Disney, Vanillaroma, Fantastic Four, Ant-Man and a bit of time on the Rogue One trailer. Afterward we tell a genie joke and start up a plan for future b-movie watchings. Then we mention David Gordon Green somehow. Also Jeremy breaks a Geeking Off record for namedrops. Okay also, some talk about Dario Argento and Salo: 100. Zo goes on about the panic movement and Italian ...
Geeking Off 153: 2016 Cinema Extravaganza of Festival and Award and Preview
February 16, 2016 05:03Jeremy, Jon and Scott discuss movies with a quickie talk about the pre-Oscars (including a very white version of some of the controversy) along with Sundance talk and anticipation of some of the upcoming movies for this year. A year from now we'll look back on all this with some pretty intense hilarity. 0:00 -- Jeremy's Raiders!: The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made 7:18 -- Favorite movies of 2015 9:21 -- 2016 Academy Awards "should wins" 47:40 -- Sundance report 1.07:20 -- Wha...
Geeking Off 152: Star Wars Episode VI Return of the Jedi Commentary
December 12, 2015 20:55Our final Star Wars commentary is behind us! We had some outside commentary suggesting that this one is the best. Admittedly, it is pretty good. Very nice to see this one again. It's actually been a lonely long time since I've seen it. One thing that has been pointed out to me that I forgot to mention about this movie -- notice how the evil Empire always takes prisoners, but the good Rebellion always shoots to kill. Film starts at 3:07 Download the podcast here! Here's a link to a version...
Geeking Off 151: The Force Awakens Trailer Talk
December 11, 2015 06:33This one's long overdue. Fresh off our Empire Strikes Back commentary, we spill into a somewhat ignorant analysis of the main Episode VII trailer. Yeah, that one that has the Empire Strikes Back music in it -- not the international one. We also provide somewhat of a wishlist for the new movie. It's coming soon and I for one have never been more skeptical of how good the movie can possibly be. Download here!
Geeking Off 150: Star Wars Episode V The Empire Strikes Back Commentary
December 09, 2015 05:09Jon, Scott and Phil for this movie commentary. Empire's considered the best. Does it hold up? What hasn't been said. Listen and watch if for no other reason that it's a great flick. Watch The Empire Strikes Back along with us. Movie starts at 1:27. Download here!
Geeking Off 149: Steph-Con 1
October 25, 2015 05:54Hey hey, we're taking a short break from the Star Wars commentaries just a tiny bit. This one here's a one-on-one with Jon and our visiting Geeking Off girl Stephanie to talk a couple of quick things. Salt Lake's Comic Con happened a couple of weeks ago and both of us have a mild report of what we saw. Hey, ever hear of a hot new TV show called Mr. Robot? Well, you probably should. Anyway, that's our second topic. Mr. Robot spoilers start at 41:14 Download here!
Geeking Off 148: Star Wars Commentary
October 01, 2015 05:33That's right. Not Episode IV. Not A New Hope. Star Wars. We watch the original theatrical version with its lovable flaws and all. You'll hear five voices: Madbeard, Zo, Steele, Chad and Phil. Yep. It's a Star Wars party. I don't think Luke is that whiney. Listen in. Download here!
Geeking Off 147: Star Wars Episode III Commentary
September 13, 2015 00:01We continue the Star Wars commentary with Episode III! Is this the best or worst of the prequels? It starts with a huge battle, but then again that battle has a coughing robot. It's grittier, but then again it's more CGI-y. Hayden Christensen's even whinier, but then again his hair is pretty fabulous. Phil joins again along with Chad and Steele. Joy abounds. (movie starts at 4:32) Download here!
Geeking Off 146: Star Wars Episode II Commentary
August 23, 2015 01:21On to Episode II! This one's just a little rougher. I feel its roughness answers the question regarding whether Episode I or II is superior. This time it's just a very low key Chad, Steele and yours truly. Join us for the movie and stay for the only slightly subtle sarcasm. Download here!
Geeking Off 145: Star Wars Episode I Commentary
July 28, 2015 05:04Anticipating the release of Episode VII, we're gonna try to pack in a commentary of each Star Wars movie before then. Should we have started with Episode IV? Probably, but this is our big chance to watch 'em in this order. Download here! (this is another Geeking Off/Jon Madsen Movie Commentary hybrid)
