Two guys. 90 minutes 1 movie pitch a week. GO! Backroom Pitching is Harrison Engstrom and Ben Semenchuk, two screenwriting enthusiasts and former students, take a couple hours out of each week to pitch you a film in a regular film running time. From insane action romantic comedies with Anne Hathaway…
We're back this week and a lot has happened since our last episode. Boston Marathon vs. 9/11 Ben tells one of the most amazing story about an American named Lance High schoolers say the darnedest things...by darnedest we say the most ignorant and inane things. Ben's been reading 3 books! Harrison doesn't read! Joseph Campbell Jasper Fforde! Kroll Show Harrison made a game....which isn't really a game... and then...we create an Australian classic.... PAUL WALKER DWAYNE "THE ROCK" JOHNSON and MARK MITCHELL in TROUBLED IN PARADISE.... Based on a True Story
Yes, we're back after a short hiatus with medical issues. This week we discuss the finer things in television such as Workaholics, Breaking Bad, The League and Legit. Breaking Bad talking takes over the first thirteen minutes, so just a heads up that spoilers abound! We also take a quick look at Ubisoft and the current trend of yearly release. Spoilers for AssCreed Brotherhood. GTA4 isn't fun to play but Saints Row 3 is too easy. We completely talk around Bioshock Infinite because Harrison is poor. Lara Croft should have been a bisexual! 2012 was year of the Indies and 2013 is killing off the stupidity in the industry. 3D is the litmus tests to make sequels. Primal Carnage is dino-cray! Then finally we pitch the pilot for Killers Killers!
Yes, we are back and we're ready to pitch...this week a little something different. Sim City is fun but still ruined by servers. Social Gaming is fun for no one. The Cinema Going Experience The PS4 Internet cultures are hard to take seriously Let's Players be cray Anita Sarkeesian vs. Feminist Humanism and Equity and then we pitch you a TV series.... COURTNEY ADJOURNED This week's episode: PILOT! Starring Jon Benjamin, Zach Braff and newcomer, Katherine Mulhaney playing Courtney Braithwaite in... COURTNEY ADJOURNED, COMING THIS FALL TO NBC
We talk about grief in this episode...yep. But first, we discuss EA handling Sim City The woes of Origin Tropico 4 is awesome Ben is a fan of War Z? Then we both talk about what's been going on in our lives recently. Sadly, yes we spend most of the episode talking about this, which means there is no pitching...but it will return next week.
