A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
It’s a time of great hope, for a new Star Wars approaches after years of nothing but the original trilogy. Fans flock to the theaters in droves to see the origins of Darth Vader…and they get a Trade Federation? Gungans? Committees? Senators? Chancellors? Cool pod race, though. And Ewan Mcgregor really knocks it out of the park as Obi-Wan Kenobi.
WE DID IT! We reached our 300th episode! To celebrate this momentous occasion we decided to something completely on-the-nose and unsubtle and review Zack Snyder’s 300…which is also on-the-nose and unsubtle! And fun was had by all. Oh, and also Happy Thanksgiving!
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
It’s 1983, and fans eagerly line up to see the conclusion to the trilogy, with expectations soaring high. What they get causes some distress. Swashbuckling? Ewoks? Silly humor? Well, yeah. It’s the perfect distillation of everything we liked from the first two movies, and quite possibly the best way to end the trilogy. Of course, some additions have been made over the years that have made this chapter difficult to enjoy. Join us as we discuss Return of the Jedi!
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
It is a dark time for the rebellion…but a pretty friggin’ sweet time for us because we get to talk about The Empire Strikes Back, easily the best Star Wars film ever made. If the last movie captured our imaginations, this one captured our hearts. It cemented our fandom and gave us the best ship in the galaxy: Han and Leia. It also gave us Yoda, Lando Calrissian, Lobot, and perhaps the biggest surprise this side of the galaxy. There’s a reason why this one sits at the top of many SW fan lists. So join us, won’t you?
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
It is a time of great nostalgia! Bryan, Chewie, Jon, and Emily come together to discuss the movie that changed history and made us the geeks we are today. We talk about our first introduction to the movie and what makes it so special to us. We also look ahead to the upcoming Rise of Skywalker in the hope that the final chapter will properly close the saga.
This week on Venture Bros Bryan Dressel, Matt “Shazzan” Dykes, and Graham “Cool McCool” Mason discuss the penultimate episode of season six – A Party For Tarzan. Come for the swell episode breakdown from Graham, and stay for the great discussion. Big question. Were you fooled the first time you saw this?
Happy Halloween from the good(?) folk over at Silver Shamrock. That’s right! We’re talking Halloween 3: Season of the Witch, the only entry in the Halloween franchise that doesn’t feature the iconic antagonist Michael Myers. And what better time to talk about it than on Halloween itself. Special thanks to Brok from Damage Boost for joining us.
DUDE! “It Happening One Night!” This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Matt “Space Ghost” Dykes, and Graham “Hoppity Hooper” Mason discuss the super awesome season six episode that ranks up there among the best of the season. There’s a lot to like here, especially that Ninja restaurant.
This week on the podcast Bryan, Chewie, and Jon discuss the delightfully bonkers Japanese Horror Comedy film House, written and directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi with input by his daughter Chigumi. Truly, it’s a movie that has to be seen to be believed and it’s quite the treat. We recommend going in as blind as you can, and if you haven’t seen it before our episode, do so and then resume. We’re anxious to talk about it with you!
This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Matt “Scooby-Doo” Dykes, and Graham “The Jetsons” Mason talk “Tanks for Nuthin’.” That’s right! Graham is back from Fatherhood to discuss the next episode of season six with the gang. It’s a super fun episode about a super fun episode.
