Bite your tongue.  The drink roll call is the heart and soul of this particular podca...

Ah, whom I kiddin'.  I'm an alcoholic, but you're right.  More comics talk is always a good thing.

The static garbled hate (or dislike) of GL movie over a still image before the movie comes out.  

Amazing Spider Man BND ending -- ding dong the witch is dead bring on something new or the marriage back.
Amazing at 2 issues a month at 4 bucks is better then 3 issues at 3 bucks a month so that is a plus.

Cant wait for more talking about classic artists like John Byrne in a future episode.

While I agree that a static image doesn't tell the tale, I also think to be fair those still images are promotional materials put out explicitly to sell the film to fans. So they don't make them with the mindset of having no one pay them any mind, they release them to get us talking.

As I said on the show, costume changes don't bother me, particularly until I see them with all the FX laid over them in the real film. Christian Bale's Batman costume looks ridiculous in still light just standing there, the X-men leather chaps look ridiculous, both both totally worked in the context of the films IMHO.

[Sasquatch]

Those show notes are packed! Can't wait to listen

Sherlock Homies is mine. No takebacks.

I at least want to be named as the first dead body.

[GreenSkeletonII]

Ten minutes into it:  I love the new co-host, Sal Headroom.

[Spigs]

Just got through the Green Lantern "discussion" and wanted to say that Sal needs to swing by the show more often, loved the energy and the back and forth between him and Vince.

Thanks for the San Diego news wrap up guys. I haven't been able to follow the news this past weekend and I maybe only knew like....1 or 2 of those news items.

I saw the first season of Oz for the first time a few months ago. I thought the acting was solid and all, but was totally underwhelmed (and it did feel dated, yes). The show was well made, but considering that TV went on to give us Sopranos, Deadwood, The Wire, Mad Men, and Breaking Bad over the next 10 years, well, the show seemed innovative but ultimately uninteresting held up against what it paved the way for.

I absolutely agree. You said it better than I did.

Naw I'll make you a cop or something, like Lieutenant Sal or something.

Wood will always be the money man in everything I put him in.
