 JoBlo Podcast: Our Most Epic Review Ever: Battleship! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Moreno and Law have sat on this BATTLESHIP review for a week and it's finally time to unleash it's epic-ness. What turned out to be the perfect storm (drive-in, extra-sensory treats, a bottle of Jack) resulted in one of the most memorable nights of my life. And it had everything to do with BATTLESHIP. We also review the craptastic DARK SHADOWS and Moreno catches up with CHRONICLE. TV Round-Up allows us to get ready for the final two 'Game of Thrones'. Literally Literary provides reviews of Storm of Swords, Daemon, and World War Z. Come for the BATTLESHIP love. Stay for the BATTLESHIP hate.

 JoBlo Podcast: Joe Carnahan talks The Grey & his Death Wish Remake | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Director Joe Carnahan joins Moreno and Law for a great discussion about THE GREY Blu-ray and DVD release last week (May 15th), his plans for the DEATH WISH remake, and douchebag animal activists. From there we try to comprehend the ending of last week's 'Game of Thrones', review GET THE GRINGO, SHUT UP LITTLE MAN, & WINNEBAGO MAN. New releases let's Law vent about THIS MEANS WAR while Moreno surprisingly looks forward to CHERNOBYL DIARIES. It's the 2012 edition of JimLawapalooza in Chicago. We've never been drunker, I promise.

 JoBlo Podcast: Our Favorite TV Shows of All Time! Haywire reviewed! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Stuck in the abyss known only as "After Avengers", Moreno and Law try to spice things up by listing their favorite TV shows of all time. Moreno goes on a Elmore Leonard binge while Law reviews HAYWIRE and Artie Lange's book, 'Too Fat to Fish'. We get some more book-to-screen comparisons for 'Game of Thrones', try to figure out if THE AVENGERS can beat out AVATAR for the top spot of all time (and if we actually want it to), declare shenanigans on the set of DJANGO UNCHAINED, and compare the latest trailers for THE DARK KNIGHT RISES and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Plus New Releases and a voicemail that lets us cast The Asylum's version of THE AVENGERS - THE REVENGERS!

 JoBlo Podcast: Avengers Rants, Raves, & Reviews! Summer Box Office Picks! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Yes, the Avengers have assembled, and Moreno and Law are happy just to witness it in all it's glory. Our favorite moments. Our favorite characters. Our questions. Our love. Something tells me we're going to be talking about this one for a long time. From there we hand in our picks for the annual JoBlo.com Summer Box Office prediction contest. There is an obvious lack of confidence involved in this process. Law reviews 'The Kid Stays in the Picture' and Tina Fey's 'Bossypants' during Literally Literary. There's more 'Game of Thrones' praise in the TV Round-Up. And did I mention we saw THE AVENGERS?

 JoBlo Podcast: Our Most Anticipated Movies of the Summer! Get The Gringo Reviewed! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

An energized Chris Bumbray comes back to the Podcast with a great review of Mel Gibson's GET THE GRINGO. Law and Moreno deliver their most anticipated films of the upcoming Summer movie season. 'Game of Thrones' gets thrown to the wolves in the TV Round-Up. Literally Literary gives us a chance to discuss Kevin Smith's new book, 'Tough Sh_t', and why he doesn't like us, and the great debut novel from Ernest Cline, 'Ready Player One'. We didn't watch much this week but, for some reason, we have a lot to say. Bring it.

 JoBlo Podcast: The LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring Commentary! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

In what we believe top be a first (probably not but whatever) Law and Moreno sit down for the LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING Drinking Game Commentary. It's our usual immature quips about the film thrown together with us being forced to drink every time one of the rules is broken. Close up of the ring? Drink. Frodo looks like he just jizzed his pants? Drink. This goes on waaaaaay too often by the way. We lay the rules out early so you can play along if you like. It's ridiculous, fun as hell, and very hard to remember. Grab a case of something and come join us. Thanks to Moreno's cousin, Carlos (Chicago Mexicans represent!) for joining us and allowing us to go pee every 10 minutes. Flee you fools!

 JoBlo Podcast: Alice Eve & James McTeigue talk The Raven! Cabin in the Woods! Hunger Games! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

JimmyO sits down with the amazing Alice Eve and director, James McTeigue, to talk about THE RAVEN. Then Jimmy gives us a mini-review of the film and leaves us wanting more, as always. From there Moreno and Law review THE CABIN IN THE WOODS, THE HUNGER GAMES, and UP FOR GRABS. During the newly named "Literally Literary", Law covers the entire 'Strain' trilogy, revisits 'The Great Gatsby' and previews a look at 'Ready Player One' which he'll review in full next week. It's the first show ever recorded in front of a live audience. All that means is there's one more drunk guy in the room.

 JoBlo Podcast: JimmyO Has Seen The Avengers! His Thoughts and More! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

JimmyO has seen THE AVENGERS. Moreno and Law grill him until it gets uncomfortable for everybody involved. Who steals the movie? Who was under-used? Are there any cameos? Why don't you have any pants on? Some of these questions are answered inside. After the AVENGERS talk and a long argument about embargoes, Moreno and Law go on to review BEING ELMO, BAD ASS, SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS, GOD BLESS AMERICA, SHAME, HANNA, and Ridley Scott's ROBIN HOOD. We branch out in the TV Round-Up to cover 'Nurse Jackie', 'Derek', and 'Justified' along with 'Game of Thrones'. It's all booze, bitches, and bodacious mustaches form there. I just wrote that.

 JoBlo Podcast: Clifton Collins Jr. Talks Pacific Rim! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

The great Clifton Collins Jr. returns to the Podcast to talk PACIFIC RIM ("...expect epic epicness."), directing music videos, the genius of Guillermo del Toro, why STAR TREK fans are a little much, and how badly he wants to be a part of 'Sons of Anarchy'. Jimmy O is there too. From there, Moreno and Law review INTO THE ABYSS, WE BOUGHT A ZOO, CONFESSIONS OF A SUPERHERO, and THE REINACTORS. Law also catches AMERICAN REUNION and ends up hating Jason Biggs. TV Round-Up welcomes 'Game of Thrones', there's a slew of listener sounders to jam with, and Law gets excited about THE CABIN IN THE WOODS.

 JoBlo Podcast: The Divide & Act of Valor Reviewed! Movie Jail! Voicemail Attack! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

No guests. 20% More bullshit. Law and Moreno fill the void of Jimmy O's interview skills with plenty of nonsense. Movie Jail is back and wastes no time in putting Tim Burton on trial for his recent obscenities. Literally speaking Moreno goes on to dive into the first 'Game of Thrones' book while Law finishes '11/22/63' and 'The Strain'. Law reviews THE DIVIDE and ACT OF VALOR, there's voicemail reviews for THE RAID and HUNGER GAMES, and Moreno unleashes his impeccable George Takei impersonation. Young women in Mexico listen to us. Know this.

 JoBlo Podcast: The Goonies Commentary! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Law and Moreno are back with a lengthy commentary featuring one of their favorite childhood films, THE GOONIES! The boys wonder where Brand's friends are, why Chunk's parents hate him, and why The Fratelli's are hiding out in the diner. We sexually harass Andy on more than one occasion, come to the conclusion that nobody was cooler than Cory Feldmen in the 80's, and that there's something a little awkward about the relationship between Chunk and Sloth. Join us, if you dare, YOU GOONIE!

 JoBlo Podcast: Jon Hurwitz & Hayden Schlossberg talk American Reunion! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

The writer and director of AMERICAN REUNION, Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, join Moreno and Law for a lengthy conversation about cock - "I don't think you can show an erect penis" - And everything else it takes to make a quality PIE film. Moreno goes on to review the film as well as I THINK WE'RE ALONE NOW, the documentary about Tiffany stalkers. Both the boys review 21 JUMP STREET and then Law breaks off his thoughts on MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL and BRAKE. The season finale of 'The Walking Dead is covered in great length, there's listener voicemail, the return of The Positively Cynical Corner, a look into why Stephen King hates Jim Law, and more than enough love for Tom Cruise. Let it go.

 JoBlo Podcast: Hunger Games Reviewed & Interview with Director Gary Ross! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Director, Gary Ross sits down with our very own Jimmy O to discuss the challenges of directing the year's first "event" movie, THE HUNGER GAMES. Jimmy also gives us his review of the film, calling it a "cross between HARRY POTTER and BATTLE ROYALE". When left alone, Moreno and Law dip into the TV Round-Up and get set for season 2 of 'Game of Thrones' now that Moreno is all caught up. We also speculate on the season finale of 'The Walking Dead' and argue about nonsense. Law reviews THE PACK and DARK TIDE while Moreno keeps it medieval with CENTURION, IRONCLAD, and a revisit of GLADIATOR. There's also a new segment that rips off ESPN's 'PTI' that we like to call Pirates of the Interruption. Can't wait to get sued.

 JoBlo Podcast: The Duplass Bros. talk Jeff, Who Lives at Home! Hugo Reviewed! Voicemailapalooza! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Jimmy O had an eventful week. First he sits down with Mark & Jay Duplass to discuss their film, JEFF, WHO LIVES AT HOME and then he gets to hang out at the Playboy Mansion for an IMMORTALS party. We get all the dirty details. From there Moreno and Law try to wrap their heads around what is going on with 'The Walking Dead' in the TV Round-Up. Law reviews HUGO and settles an ongoing argument over at the AITH Podcast. We take a crap-load of voicemail reviews on everything from PROJECT X to TITANIC. And we do other stuff that I can never seem to remember the morning after. It's all very shameful.

 JoBlo Podcast: Goon & Muppets Reviewed! Return of the TV-Round-Up! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: Unknown

Johnny Moreno and Jim Law officially have street cred thanks to the incredibly bad ass new theme song recorded for us by STYPES, a local Chicago hip hop duo. It's awesome. With our new found pimpin' lifestyle we decide to tackle reviews for GOON, THE MUPPETS, ROCK PROPHECIES, and TOWER HEIST while blasting our way back into the TV Round-Up and the return of 'The Walking Dead' (now with more zombies!). We also take a look into the new trailers for THE AVENGERS and PIRANHA 3DD and try to get more pumped for PROMETHEUS. There's new sounders galore, a look into who we would cast as ourselves in The JoBlo Podcast Movie, and all the regular nuts and bolts. We. Have. A. Theme. Song. Booyah!
