Geeking Off 124: Theatrical Movies So Far This Year

You may be wondering why we don't discuss either Star Trek Into Darkness or Fast & Furious 6. This was recorded a couple of weeks ago. Obviously. Greetings from the past! In this recording, Jeremy and Jon tell Zo what 2013 films they've seen, up until Zo got bored and left. At that point, Jeremy and Jon continued talking at each other for some reason.

We also slightly discussed this picture:

Geeking Off 123: Cumminsun

Our discussion is about upcoming movies. This may be confusing, however because we sort of started mid-conversation about Scott's bad experience with The Great Gatsby. The upcoming movie talk starts at about 14 minutes. We pretty much get through the summer films before time restraints forced us to stop. As usual, a strange amount of time is spent on this year's Fast & Furious movie.

Geeking Off 122: Anatal or Digilogue?

"... and I for one praise our new digital overlords." This week Scott enlightens us on how his new meat smoker is an allegory for the current film industry. Jeremy pipes in with various filmmaking corrections.  Ultimately, what we're really talking about is what the documentary Side by Side makes us think about. Digital has pretty much won against digital. Are we happy or sad?

Geeking Off 119: 2013 Oscar Predictions

You may hear a vivid trace of non-offensiveness in your ears. That's because Zo decided not to join this time around. As a result we've had our most civilized discussion in years. The Oscars are on Sunday so hurry and give this one a listen. Whaddya think? Lincoln or Argo. I, of course, am still holding out for Anna Karenina.
