Nic Cage Month 2 - The enCagening

2012-01-31T04:12:03Z

It's time for another theme month at I Don't Even. Yes, that's three theme months in a row. This time, it's a repeat. If you know me, you know I have a deeply disturbing love of Nicolas Cage and his movies, so we are going to once again take a look at the "acting" that he is famous for. What movies will we watch this month? I dunno, but keep an eye on the I Don't Even page for more movies and one interesting piece of Nic Cage trivia per week as we begin with last year's Drive Angry this week.

Talking Penguindrum on The Speakeasy

2012-01-24T02:57:02Z

I was given the chance to appear on the second half of this month's episode of The Speakeasy, an awesome anime podcast hosted by the Reverse Thieves. We got together to talk about Kunihiko Ikuhara's great new series, Mawaru Penguindrum. It was a really fun and intense discussion about the characters and themes of the show. I will warn that this was a very spoiler heavy discussion and I would honestly encourage you to check out the show itself before listening. Once you have though be sure to listen to The Speakeasy #25: The Flying Penguin, A Revolutionary Girl Utena & Mawaru Penguindrum Discussion!

Spoilereview - Super 8

2012-01-11T18:00:40Z

I don't like Super 8.

It's not like the movie is all bad or anything, I actually enjoyed large parts of it, but the bad parts just ruin it. Elle Fanning is amazing as Alice, and the other child actors, while not as good as Fanning, are wonderful. I also love the first half of the film, outside of a few problems in the realism department. The early plot of the kids working on their movie while all the oddities around town are happening is a lot of fun.

Sonic Retrospective Part XII - Sonic Adventure

2012-01-09T18:00:04Z

There was no real Sonic game for the SEGA Saturn, so it wasn't until the Dreamcast that a real 3-D Sonic title was made. There was work on a game called Sonic X-treme, but that got canceled and shuffled between systems. This is unfortunate, because Sonic's love interest in the game was planned to be a new character called Tiara Boobowski, which is ridiculous.

In making Sonic Adventure, the team redesigned the characters, making Sonic lankier and more cartoony. They also added a lot more characters, and decided that giving each one their own level types would be more interesting than each playing as similarly as they had in the past. They also took trips to South America for research on temples and jungles in order to plan the appearance of areas in the game like Mystic Ruin.

It is finally time for another episode of Podlabor! If you haven't guessed yet this episode is all about everyone's favorite movie, Redline! If you haven't heard about Redline it is a labor of love project from Madhouse that took 7 years to produce. It is one of the most visually stunning animated films to come out in years. If you haven't seen anything about this movie yet be sure to check out the trailer.

This episode came about when I was talking to Evan from Ani-Gamers and Bradley from T.H.E.M Anime about the movie on Twitter. Everyone was so excited to talk about it so obviously we needed to do a podcast! So here it is. Warning though this episode does contain some spoilers. Redline is one of those special movies that just gets everyone extremely excited and it shows in the podcast. So get to listening! Oh and be sure to preorder Redline. It comes out here finally on Januray 17th on DVD and Blu-Ray! And now I am going to go watch Redline again.

The Madhouse - Countdown: Jerusalem

2011-11-09T16:00:27Z

The Madhouse is an ongoing look at the various mockbusters and rip-offs from The Asylum and it’s sub brand Faith Films.

Armageddon movies have an annoying habit of exclusively featuring characters that have never heard of the Christian version of the end of the world or even seen one of the many movies on the subject. I suppose they all take place in an alternate world where we don’t have people claiming dates for the rapture. It’s similar to the biggest problem religious movies have: the characters have somehow avoided hearing even the most basic of tenants of some of the most prolific religions.

Countdown: Jerusalem is from The Asylum’s Faith Films sub brand, which is just like The Asylum, but it attempts to pander to the religious. I say attempt because they rarely get even the basics of Christianity into the movie they’re attempting to bill as Christian. I’m not sure if they’re keeping it vague to appeal to all denominations of Christianity or so they don’t have to go through the trouble of checking Wikipedia.

Podlabor 9 - Ed's Bunny

2011-10-25T02:57:34Z

It's time for another episode of Podlabor. My two awesome guests this week are Ed Sizemore from Manga Worth Reading and Manga Out Loud and Corey Proft from the Beta Male Experience. We got together to talk about one of the real surprise hits in anime this year, Tiger and Bunny! The series just finished airing around a month ago and was a much bigger hit than anyone expect. We figured it would be a great idea to talk about. Different topics came up as we talked about our favorite characters, story lines, and the ending. As a warning there are a number a spoilers in this episode so listen carefully if you haven't watched the show yet. Enjoy and be sure to check Tiger and Bunny out on Hulu!

October is Horror Month for I Don't Even

2011-10-04T16:33:51Z

It's time for another theme month at I Don't Even. This time we're taking a look at the horror genre, something we have needed a bit more of in I Don't Even. So tune in every Wednesday this month to see a new, awful horror movie. We're starting off the month with Amityville 4 - The Evil Escapes, but if you have any ideas for other movies to do, shoot me an e-mail or let me know on twitter.

So show up and enjoy laughing the face of clumsy attempts at horror.

Podlabor Episode 8 - We Are Hell

2011-10-03T15:41:48Z

It's time for Episode 8 of Podlabor, We Are Hell! Joining me this time I have Dave from Colony Drop and Astro Toy and Basil from the OSMCast. We got together to talk about one of the most insane things to come out this year, Mazinkaiser SKL! Mazinkaiser SKL is a new OVA from Dynamic Pro that is very loosely based on Mazinger Z. They basically took the idea of Mazinger and did their own completely new and crazy thing with it. It was a ton of fun to watch and just as much fun to talk about so check this thing out! Also the entire thing can be had from Media Blasters for a mere $15. So go out and buy it!
