It’s a review-heavy show this week as we offer up our opinions on three of this weekend’s new releases; we didn’t see Journey 2 but do discuss Safe House, The Vow, and enjoy a rather lengthy deconstruction of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. We briefly turn our attention to the music world with the death of Whitney Houston and Madonna’s Super Bowl performance... 

I promised we would try some new things since we came back, and this week is representative of that. First, we’re joined by our friend Kelly, who adds a female voice back to the show even if it does mean some razzing for liking Channing Tatum and Grey’s Anatomy. Secondly, we open up the Skype-line to see who calls in. This week it’s the latest addition to the Widescreen Warrior writing... 

The big news this week was the announcement of the Oscar nominations, which Rafe and Tim take an in-depth look at over the course of this episode. We also review a few Oscar contenders (The Artist and Bridesmaids) and one movie that should have been a contender (50/50) as we continue catching up on the missed movies of 2011. Add in a little bit of television talk (good-bye Chuck) and a discussion... 

No, we haven’t found a replacement for Margaret yet. Instead, the title reflects this week’s theme in new movie releases: both Underworld Awakening and Haywire feature hot chicks kicking ass, which means it’s something we talk about in this week’s episode. While neither Rafe or Tim saw those new releases (but we did finally see Hugo!), we still have a lot to discuss, from... 

We’re back after an extended hiatus, but for how long? We spend the first part of this week’s show talking about some (fairly obvious) changes that are going on with the show. Please give us your feedback after listening, either by commenting below, sending an e-mail, or joining the discussion on our forums. Other than starting off on a negative note, Tim and Rafe talk about some of their... 

Happy New Year! Chris and Rafe get together to talk about their Christmas video game swag (Catherine for Chris, Batman: Arkham Asylum and City for Rafe). We follow up on a few stories we’ve talked about in the past few episodes – responses to that awesome Modern Warfare advertising Rafe liked and the Half-Life rumors) before discussing more in depth thoughts about Star Wars: The Old... 

We may be injured, but that’s not stopping us from putting out another episode of the podcast, especially with Star Wars: The Old Republic on the way. Listen to your morphine-addled hosts (no, we’re not really on morphine) as we talk about the new Star Wars MMORPG with thoughts that aren’t in our written material. We also discuss what games look good to put under the tree for the... 

Well, it’s the week we’ve been waiting for: The Muppets is in theaters and we’re here to tell you what we thought about it. We also finish up our Jim Henson month with a look at his legacy and two films that came after his death: The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppets from Space. We also talk about developments with the latest Twilight picture (possibly giving viewers seizures), The... 

It’s been almost a year since our last attempt at breathing new life into our video game podcast. This time we think we have a combination that works. Join our video game guru Chris Tallant and Rafe as we dive into the world of console and computer games. This week we talk about reactions to some of the “exclusive” content you could pick up with Batman: Arkham City, the ongoing debate... 

We’re back for another week of celebrating the brilliance of Jim Henson. This week it’s a focused look at his non-Muppet pictures, from his experimental short film “Time Piece” to his fantasy creations, The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth. What’s interesting is that the three of us have a really large divide between which movies we think hold up and which ones we feel have...
