Forum for Geeks

I have those as well. I've always been a big fan of Horner's ALIENS score. Particularly the expanded version. I have the expanded ALIEN by Goldsmith, but can't say as I've ever really given it much of a listen. I don't have any real attachment to that film to speak of, so I just haven't made the ti...

A few things about the new trailer... I like the clear plexiglass helmets the Guardians seem to be wearing. They remind me of the ones that the Metalunans from This Island Earth wore. That's a neat/humorous callback. The explaination at the beginning was perfect. It summed up the whole idea of what ...

The fourth anniversary of Views is fast approaching and since the show has more or less gotten back on it's feet I wanted to celebrate with my semi-regular co-host Shag by devoting an entire episode to what YOU guys want to talk about. So ask us any comic book or geek related questions and we will ...

Ironically, on "Judgement Day" :lol: I watched the French zombie film Chris had mentioned awhile back, The Horde . It was a pretty good movie, kind of has the vibe of a Luc Besson film like Taken (okay, technically a Pierre Morel film, but Besson was the writer) in the way the action was h...

Oh crap, that means I've only got an hour and a half to convince my wife to have "End of the World" sex with me!!!

I do some DVD/Blu-Ray shopping through Amazon, as well as some MP3 sownloads, and from now on I'll be sure to use the TTF link. It is hassle setting up a site and maintaining it without any advertising, and I don't think this is a bad way to go. I've heard a lot of podcasts pimping Audible.com as we...

I'm really surprised by how far down AOTC is on most everyones' lists. I find it and the original SW interchangeable in the #2 spot on my list, second only to TESB. For me, the clunky romance and mopey performance of Hayden Christensen brought it down to that level. And, as cool as a lot of people ...

Since we all seem to be ranking the films... TESB SW ROTJ ROTS TPM ATOC And since I'm not certain how it would fit into continuity, I left the animated Clone Wars film off the list. But if I were to include it, it would end up at the bottom of the list. I really soured me on the prequels and made me...

Saw Thor last night (yeah, I skipped opening weekend, so sue me) and liked it overall. Not my favorite Marvel movie so far, but it was really solid. Some complaints I had were when did Thor in his origin become such a jock douchebag, and what the Hell was up with the overuse of Dutch angles?!? Joe -...

What do you all think the worst Star Trek series is? I would probably say Star Trek: Voyager . Yes, DS9 would probably win the conscensus on this forum, but IMO the show was really a great showcase for entertaining charcter actors. Add to that the fact that it was able to carry on a season long sto...

Hey Scott, best of luck to you in getting settled and finding a good job down in Florida. Actually I heard the "Breaking News" TTF podcast while I was on vacation with the family at Disney World. In fact, after I heard the news, I went on a search in hopes of finding a Tron: Legacy Mickey ...

Hopefully, but historically it hasn't worked out that way. La Femme Nikita, El Ringu and Rec. have had a small percentage of genre fans seek them out, but the VAST majority of money goes to the remakes. America is a HUGE market for movies and the original version of this movie deserves the audience...

I knew that when you made comparisons to Cannibal Holocaust that this movie was going to be disturbing on levels that few can imagine. I'm almost afraid to go seek it out, especially after seeing the trailer you posted. Joe -- And it looks so well made, which makes it all the more unsettling -- Anth...

Sadly, this show will more than triple the number of actual videos shown daily on MTV...

Joe -- "I am Cornholio! I need TP for my bunghole!!! -- Anthrax

Scott, after your rant about Morrison and his practical deification of Batman, I thought this might amuse you... http://www.toplessrobot.com/wg07.jpg Yes, in an IN CONTINUITY comic (albeit one written by Kevin Smith), Batman pissed himself...(Hat tip to Comics Alliance) Joe -- Stll waiting for Batma...

Really good episode, guys. Again, Scott will be sorely missed, but I like the idea of Michael covering cross-over issues in the interim to keep the podcast going. I can't wait to hear the review of "Flash of Two Worlds", since it's considered one of the landmark issues marking the beginnin...

Welcome aboard dude! There are some great podcasts here, I would recommend Half Hour Wasted Podcast and the Legion of Dudes. (Not trying to "brown-nose" but these are two great podcasts that just happen to be by the guys who set-up this forum!!) Great to be here. I'll definitely have to p...

I actually like the background music. It gives the podcast more of a richness than when people are just talking. It especially works when you guys are doing the review section for either the Star Wars comics or the Star Trek reviews. I agree that sometimes it can be overused, but if it is subtlely i...

Hey everybody, it's nice to get back to some old school forum posting like I used to do in the old BBS days. My name is Shawn, I'm a 40 year old...geek (I'm married and have two kids, so I can definitely rule out the whole virgin aspect). I grew up loving Star Wars and Star Trek and never had a prob...
