RopeofSilicon Podcast

I think we have a really good episode for you today as we do our regular Tuesday look at the new DVDs and Blu-rays, but then get into a lot of talk about the best political action thrillers, film structure in general, the best film endings and whether or not Paramount has much of a shot with a Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters sequel. In addition to that we have our section of games as well as a new one we're calling Pitch Meeting recommended by AS.

It's Friday so that means movie reviews and this week we're tackling The Call and The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, but it doesn't end there as we get into this whole "Veronica Mars" Kickstarter business, your questions, your voicemails, games and much more.

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the RopeofSilicon podcast where this week we actually don't forget to cover the new DVDs and Blu-rays and, yet again, explore the current state of film, this time looking at the impact age has on filmmakers, discussing the want for quality when money is being spent making a movie and whether or not in-depth analysis of a film can actually hurt or help the appreciation of that film considering the bias of the person doing the analyzing. On top of that we have more of your questions and voicemails, all our regular games and a Box-Office Challenge update with all the latest numbers for all twenty films, including the foreign totals Box-Office Mojo had not yet added into several of the films... the results may surprise you, or, at least Laremy.

The future of film compared to the current state it's in right now is a big topic on today's episode along with reviews for Oz the Great and Powerful and Dead Man Down. In addition we have several voicemails from listeners, questions and our usual array of games.

More firsts for you today as we have our second official podcast sponsorship and with it comes our first interview as we talk to Matt Olmon about his Kickstarter campaign to fund a short film he's putting together called Paisley. We also get to a ton of your questions, a couple voicemails, plenty of games and for the first time ever, we actually forgot to cover new DVDs and Blu-rays.

A busy, busy episode this Friday with reviews of Jack the Giant Slayer and Stoker, our first official sponsorship and a Box-Office challenge recap and the Spring 2013 Box-Office Draft. We also get into why Anne Hathaway is being targeted so much, your questions and voicemails, plus, as always, Buy or Sell, Playing the Percentages and Over / Under only this time we have some new bumpers supplied by Rudie Obias.

The 2013 Oscars are over and Laremy and I are putting the final touches on the season with a look back at Sunday's show, the winners, the losers, Seth MacFarlane and more. On top of that we take a look at the week's new DVD and Blu-ray releases, your questions and voicemails, a few games and we are out in just over 91 minutes.
