Podcasting: Iron Man 3

A little movie called Iron Man 3 hit the big screen last weekend and promptly started making a LOT of money. I'm just sitting here quietly, waiting for my back-end points from the total gross in Zimbabwe to start to add up. I've got a lot riding on this one!

I wasn't able to be a part of the main episode, but was lucky enough to be a part of a pretty terrific additional segment where we got into some spoilery territory (right after I introduced Aaron to Moulin Rouge! for the first time!)

Don't forget to share/post/link/tweet or whatever it is you do with things you like. Enjoy!

This episode features: 

• Aaron Neuwirth of The Code Is Zeek and Why So Blu?
• Abraham Moua of The Walrus Moose

Podcasting: Zero Dark Thirty

Good news! I thought that I was going to miss out on Out Now With Aaron and Abe's discussion of Zero Dark Thirty due to Sundance, but good fortune was on my side! I'm very glad to have been able to be a part of this one. The shownotes, in particular, are a veritable treasure trove of interesting bits of information. Make sure you take the time to check them out. 

You can listen to the entire podcast by clicking HERE to go to the episode's official page or by clicking the big ol' play button below. This discussion had a particularly good vibe. We were not only able to go into detail on the film, but also took the time to talk about Sundance/Slamdance as well as the upcoming Academy Awards.

Podcasting: The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

Had enough of a Hobbit fix yet??? If the answer's no, then you'll enjoy this one. The good gentlemen of Out Now With Aaron and Abe were kind enough enough to invite me to be a part of their discussion/breakdown of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

Podcasting: Lincoln

As happens from time to time, I was fortunate enough to be included on this week's discussion/breakdown of Lincoln on Out Now With Aaron and Abe. After our review of the film, the conversation moved to post-2000 Spielberg films, and let's just say that I was a bit surprised to realize exactly how much I love that period of his work.

Podcasting: The Dark Knight Rises, Part 2

With the arrival of The Dark Knight Rises, a film that's transcended the simplicity of the calendar year to become a bonafide event, the good gentlemen at Out Now With Aaron and Abe decided that one episode wasn't enough. While Part 1 was designed from the outset to be completely spoiler-free, the crew really wanted to delve into the particulars of the plot and speak off the cuff, without fear of ruining the experience for the uninitiated. 

Part 2 is that conversation/breakdown/marathon. It's chock FULL of spoilers, so if you haven't seen the film, you've been warned. Don't be an idiot.

Personally, I think this one might be one the show's finest hours yet. Enjoy!

Podcasting: The Dark Knight Rises, Part 1

Just about everybody affiliated with Out Now With Aaron and Abe has had The Dark Knight Rises at or near the top of their most anticipated list for 2012, so it's no surprise that we've taped not one but TWO episodes devoted to the film. You can listen to the entire podcast by clicking HERE to go to the episode's official page or by clicking the big ol' play button below. 

FYI, this episode is spoiler-free. Part 2 (with an abundance of spoilers!) is coming soon, so keep a weather eye out. . .

Podcasting: The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Last week, Aaron Neuwirth, Alan Aguilera, a very special guest, and myself took some time out to talk about The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo on a very special episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe. The evening provided for a surprisingly in-depth discussion, with a significant (and amply warned!) spoiler section.

So, if you can't get enough of Lisbeth Salander, the complete podcast is below.

BACK!

Well, friends, it has been a while, hasn’t it? The past few months have seen me quite busy in some respects and quite lacking in the blogging persuasion in a lot of others. In a simple man’s English, I’ve had stuff on my plate, but have been mostly more complacent than I care to admit.

However! There are some new developments that you need to know about, aside from my usual recommitment to a newfound undying enthusiasm to blog and blog and blog.

I’m now a contributor to Movie Smackdown!, a site with the unique predisposition to put a new flick in the ring with an “old” one to see which is better. You know, essentially reviewing two movies at once. It’s an interesting challenge, and I’m grateful to be on board. Currently, you can find my pieces on Puss In Boots and Immortals on the site, with more to come. I’ll be sure to post links to any new Smacks here as well, and would be most grateful for any reading, commenting, rating, and sharing you feel up to.

Also, over the past several months, I’ve been fortunate enough to become a regular guest contributor to Out Now With Aaron and Abe, which, you might recall, was the podcast I guested on back in June to break down The Tree of Life. Currently, you can find our Art House/Indie Showcase 2011 Spectacular on the site, with a rich back catalog of podcasts to enjoy.

Enjoy, my droogs. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a screening to get to.
