STORM OF SPOILERS – 98% Jon Snow Jesus Part 2
Storm of Spoilers | | 17. June, 2015

A GAME OF THRONES PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO TALK ABOUT SPOILERS

With Joanna Robinson from Vanity Fair, Dave Gonzales from Geek.com and Neil Miller from Film School Rejects!

WARNING

If you’re looking for spoiler-free dissection of the highest caliber, you’re looking for A CAST OF KINGS (click there)

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but all three hosts are alive at the end of it. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 10 “Mother’s Mercy”

This week, we’ve worked in the entertainment “journalism” world for awhile now, and we thing Entertainment Weekly is IN ON IT. That’s right, we’re 98% sure that not all the cliffhangers we saw in this finale end in death. Like, serious death. Besides #ParadeOfLies, this very unstructured podcast throws out the chronological breakdown of the episode to worry and speculate about macro and micro issues, from “does the HBO production team know what to do with these literary characters?” to “Where did Pod go?” Joanna has a little bird in Belfast, Neil is pretty sure Winds of Winter is already finished and Da7e is wondering why so few of our characters actually played the Game of Thrones this season.

REVIEW – Jurassic World
Legacy»Review Episodes»Volume 1 | | 12. June, 2015

Jurassic-World-parody_article_story_large

Awe? No.

This week, Katey and Patches swap out Daves for a review of Colin Trevorrow’s new Jurassic Park movie, the fourth one, Jurassic World. Will the three hosts be able to look past the groundbreaking original and enjoy this action movie that tries to comment on itself, or is this Spielberg riff to riff-y for our critics liking? Katey and Da7e seem a bit more open to what Jurassic World is throwing down than Patches, so it’s up to you: Are you going to the dinosaur park?

This podcast includes some occasional cussing, but only a few charred little girls. It covers SEASON 5 EPISODE 9 “Dance of Dragons”

This week, Neil has returned on the back of Drogon! It took him awhile to find us because of the oncoming winter, so we had to meet him at the second biggest fire the North has ever seen: the one where Wun Wun dries his clothes. Mace Tyrell is back and full of song, Arya has a really good chance at mutilating a guy’s junk next week, and Olly’s Gonna Olly at The Wall. This week’s Dorne tomfoolery has the hosts wondering if it can be saved or if this whole season was a waste of Dorne time, we talk about burning little girls and just what that much King’s blood can do.  Finally, after a discussion of oddly poor special effects, we all realize that there’s way too much to do in the finale.
