Dark Shadows are here again. First came the campy, classic television show, then a ’90s remake. Now we get to see Tim Burton and Johnny Depp take on the franchise. Of course, it still has the might of The Avengers to contend with. We offer a review of Dark Shadows and our take on The Avengers continual success before moving into the realm of television and discussing which shows are making... 

I wasn’t planning on doing a big hoop-de-doo for our 300th podcast episode: we’ve done that before for episode 100 and 200 and I didn’t see much point to doing it again, especially with a not so behind the scenes reveal a few weeks ago that we might have been quitting with 300. Then we produced last week’s show and our good friend Luis made the following suggestion: Good show.... 

This is going to be somewhat of a casual ramble, but welcome to the time of year when Rafe’s head is about to explode. An annual conference this past weekend dominated my time for almost the past week, which is why we pushed the podcast off of Sunday for the week. Unfortunately, last week was rainy and an (outdoor) commitment I had for last Wednesday was suddenly moved to Monday night, when... 

Every once in a while we find a week where things just don’t go as planned and we have to cancel the podcast. This is one of those weeks. Originally we pushed back the show due to Tim’s commitment to local theatre, Margaret having to travel, and Rafe being out of town all last week. On Monday it turned out we hadn’t seen any of the movies we were supposed to talk about, so we announced... 

If you only know us for our reviews or editorials, you’re missing out on a large piece of our website. Widescreen Warrior.com was founded because of our podcast. With nearly 200 episodes of the show under our belt, we needed a new home for the show after leaving our previous home at Cinema Blend. Thus, this site was born: a new place for us to talk about movies. For a while the podcast was the most... 

As I’m sure you’ve noticed by now, we’re on a short break with our weekly audio show. Due to some schedule conflicts, we’ve had to take a few weeks off from the show (our next broadcast will be June 19th – June 21st – sorry, the flu bug is delaying our next show for a few days). Since we’re not doing a show, it makes it kind of difficult for us to have an Artist of the Month,... 

It’s Sunday. That means it’s podcast day. But it’s also Easter, which means some of you are celebrating the religious aspects of the day while others are digging deep into a spiral of chocolate and shame. It’s a holiday for all to enjoy! Regardless of how you celebrate Easter, we’re celebrating by putting the podcast off for a day. Sorry we didn’t mention it last... 

We’re taking a week off from recording the podcast this week, as eagle-eyed observant readers may have noticed from our new Artist of the Month slate. We’ll leave it up to you to decide why: did we get so busy that it just made sense to cut the show this week, or is it that we don’t want to record a show in a world where Hop is the box-office king for the week? I suspect both are... 

We mentioned on last week’s show that due to some obligations on Sunday the podcast would have to be rescheduled. Well, it’s Sunday, and sure enough, those obligations are here (and they involve cake!) so we’re moving the podcast recording to Monday at 5pm Eastern. Join us tomorrow for our usual antics: talking about Sucker Punch, finishing up with Sigourney Weaver as our Artist of... 

Once upon a time, we played with video episodes of the podcast, and Rafe was sad. See, Rafe has some background in video production, and what we were doing with the podcast went against everything. One camera trying to shoot three people from a long shot for an hour. Who wants to watch that? Not me. At the same time, I was experimenting with video reviews. These were quite a bit of fun, but took longer...
