Plus Katey Rich’s Movie Quote Trivia Returns!

This week, Katey, Patches, David and Da7e throw down in another installment of movie quote trivia in the mini-segment! These quotes were pulled from the years #50-100 grossing movies, so it’s a bit more tough on our hosts. The real meat, though, is a discussion of HBO’s Miniseries Olive Kitterage, which David has seen all of and Patches and Katey read, then a discussion prompted by Friday’s review of Foxcatcher that asks: Since Foxcatcher is about “America” what other movies with big themes do we like? Unsuprisingly, Da7e brings up A Serbian Film again.

REVIEW – Interstellar

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

And Big Hero 6 is mentioned. 

This week, David, Patches, and Katey blast off on a three-year mission to the furthest reaches of our universe, where space-time becomes so warped, that even a heady, composed blockbuster like Interstellar can come into existence. We’ll talk about the latest from Christopher Nolan in non-spoiler and spoiler-heavy sections, so if you’re looking to see the movie pure, come back later! We’ll also field your lighting round question answers on which actor you want to go to space with (plus a brief mention of Big Hero 6). It’ll be kooky.

The Thought Bubble #1 – Your Comics Questions Answered!
Thought Bubble | | 5. November, 2014

This week, we’re trying out a new show! Future shows will have their own graphic, theme song, general release. Let us know what you think because at this point: WE WANT TO KNOW REAL BAD!

A new podcast about Comics Pop Culture!

Spider-Man and Carol Danvers

Spider-Man and Carol Danvers, or how Da7e likes to think of himself.

Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fantatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back!

New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by fan-who-lived-through-the-90s Da7e Gonzales of Latino-Review.com and Forbes.com to answer YOUR comic book questions.

The podcast has TWO SECTIONS: “General” and “Advanced.” The first “General” section is for EVERYONE and won’t spoil anything that hasn’t happened on screen in a movie yet nor will Da7e be allowed to explain multiple arcs that might become spoilers. In the latter “Advanced” segment, Da7e is unleashed, this week basically spoiling the origins of the “The Twins” in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

No matter your level of engagement, if your interested in comic books and their surrounding pop culture, this show’s for you!

Featuring Katey Rich and Elizabeth Taylor’s Corpse In Space

This week, Joanna Robinson takes the reigns to bring her residency to a climactic happy ending, much like romantic comedies. That’s right, Manhattan Love Story and A to Z failed at bringing serialized rom-com to the TV screen so it’s time to examine this genre: can it be drawn out and still be satisfying? Did the genre grind to a halt after the execution of Love Actually? IMPORTANT THINGS! Also discussed: The theater critic in Birdman has us thinking about professions portrayed on film and John Wick has each host picking a favorite dumbly plotted movie.
