HOLY SHIT I HAD THAT BIRTHDAY RECORD!!!!

Now to listen to the rest of the episode.

Happy Birthday, Scott.

What is the most random or obscure film/show/comic (your pick) that you like that nobody else seems to like (or everyone else hates, for that matter), or nobody knows about?

Same here. I shop w/Amazon all the time so if it means I can also help you guys out, I'm cool with that.

So, which would you rather have hidden away in the back of your closet? A porno mag featuring Starfire or one of Karen Page's films? Okay ... to make this a little less immature, I'd love to see you guys do another books episode. The first was a lot of fun to listen to. And, have you guys done an ep...

Correction -- WAS one of the best. Now he's the Michael Moore of geekdom. Like Moore, he came out of the shoot with a movie I loved (Clerks as opposed to Moore's Roger and Me), made a ton of movie and garnered a ton of celebrity, but somewhere along the line mutated into just another self-important...

I'm still scratching my head on this one. WTF?

Anyway, a post over on "Comics Should be Good" got me thinking about a Top 5 for you guys: bad plots in great creator runs. I'm blanking on one right now that doesn't involve the Titans, but I'm sure that you guys could come up with something. Can you elaborate? I'm not sure what you mean...

About 30 minutes after that last post, Joel McHale made a reference on The Soup to If Looks Could Kill. A movie, btw, that I saw in the theater (note to self: rent If Looks Could Kill. Write blog entry.). Anyway, a post over on "Comics Should be Good" got me thinking about a Top 5 for you ...

I just think that what may be killing part of that piece of Superman is the studios and the writers not wanting to play with the heavily Judeo-Christian allegory. Its a simple line to draw comparisons from Moses or Christ to Kal-El, which is a shame. Don't forget Nietzche's Ubermensch! Those heavy ...

Congratulations, Scott! Glad to hear things are working out like this!

Mike, in your exploration of 1980s Marvel, have you ventured into the "Assistant Editor's Month" titles? CBR had a pretty good post on Aunt May, Herald of Galactus today.

No mention of Legend of Zelda games? Seriously the original Legend of Zelda was the first "go anywhere" game. And you guys didn't play any Final Fantasy or Dragon Warrior or Phantasy Star? Dragon Warrior? Oh HELL YES! My sister and I both played the SHIT out of Dragon Warrior and Dragon W...

Congratulations, Scott!!

Great interview, Chris!

wasn't "There's a woman on the screen and she's an Imperial" part of the Star Wars drinking game for Mormons?

This might be more "on topic" for FCTC but do you remember any rumors regarding a possible appearance of Death back in "Aventures of Superman" #500?

Top 5 lists sound like fun. The idea of a rotating features on different comic series is cool. Mike as a permanent host sounds like a good fit. I agree, although I listen to so many of Mike's podcasts I think I hear his voice more often than my own lately. Anyway, here's an idea. Your sarcastic dis...

Hi everyone! I'm doing some brainstorming stuff for the HPA and I could use some help. I'm looking for fandoms that deal with the following issues and why. I also added what I have so far. 2. "You Suck" (which is about bullying): Glee, Breakfast Club, X-men, Venture Brothers, Pokemon, Hou...

I watched Fright Night to prep myself for this episode. Great job, guys. I've never seen part 2 but I kind of hope that it might find its way onto one of the random movie channels Comcast seems to provide (you know, the ones that run crappy movies 24-7 or on SyFy or something). I actually agree with...
