| 7. February, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Patches, Katey and Da7e Revisit A Comedy Classic!

This week, in celebration of Dr. Strangelove‘s 50th Anniversary, Matt Patches, Katey Rich and Da7e fondly recollect and review Stanley Kubrick’s satire which leads to a discussion on safety in comedy and the wobbly lines that define satire and spoof. After a deep dive into Strangelove, it’s time to quickly mention The Lego Movie and if the villain of the movie is actually Da7e.

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Plus Friedberg & Seltzer Parody Movies Discussed

This week, Katey, David and Da7e spend the majority of the episode entertained by Matt Patches, as the annual quiz-master has returned with a 2013 Edition of his punishing Patches Matches Trivia (back by popular demand!). Before that, Patches wants to talk about Spoof Movies by Friedberg & Seltzer and liking Spy Hard, then the hosts spend a good chunk of time processing the news of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s passing.

Oh, and the final SCREEN BITES review of Sherlock Series 3 episode 3 that Da7e is on? THAT’S RIGHT HERE.

Reviews – The Sexiest Reviews of Awkward Moment and Labor Day You Will Hear Today
| 31. January, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

With Special Guest Amy Nicholson!

This week, David and Patches make a pack never to take dates to That Awkward Moment, the new bro comedy produced by and starring the comedic wunderkind Zac Efron. Then we wrangle Amy Nicholson of L.A. Weekly to help us bake a peach pie/make things a little steamier when we review Labor Day, the new film from Juno and Young Adult director Jason Reitman. We’d say who wrote the book it’s adapted from, but she might come after us when we start picking the movie apart.

True Detective, American Horror Story, The Grammys – Important Doings On The Tube

This week, Katey, Patches, David and Da7e are all back in one time-zone and I, Frankenstein is still in theaters, so it’s time to turn our attention to the other glowing rectangle in our lives…our laptop screens. Ok, the 3rd Most Important Glowing Rectangle in our lives, the television. Katey and Patches watched The Grammys and Katey wants to know if the variety of performances made it a live event worth watching, Patches wraps up his Sundance 2014 coverage under heavy questioning from David and all 4 dig into the blurring line between film storytelling and television storytelling by touching on HBOs True Detective (spoiler free!).

Oh, and that SCREEN BITES review of Sherlock Series 3 episode 2 that Da7e is on? THAT’S RIGHT HERE.
