Geeking Off 155: All Over the Place

We 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.

Geeking Off 154: Superb at Rog Ueo Ne

The 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 neorealism.

Jeremy goes on about Peter Bogdanovich, then we mention a lot of Orson Welles stuff.

Oh and part 2 of this conversation is likely on its way.

Geeking Off 153: 2016 Cinema Extravaganza of Festival and Award and Preview

Jeremy, 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.

Geeking Off 152: Star Wars Episode VI Return of the Jedi Commentary

Our 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.

Geeking Off 151: The Force Awakens Trailer Talk

This 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.

Geeking Off 150: Star Wars Episode V The Empire Strikes Back Commentary

Jon, 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.

Geeking Off 149: Steph-Con 1

Hey 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
