[School of Everything Else 2016] To see in the new year and take a brief respite from Star Wars we're doing another round of reading out some of the most irrational, sarcastic and hilarious movie reviews from the @AmznMovieRevws twitter feed. Along with this is a series of dramatic readings from many sources, most notably the fourth Fifty Shades of Grey book from the ongoing billionaire pervert saga; Grey. This show was separated into two parts because the original version (Vol. 6 was frankly too long). Joining us from The Mana Pool (a Magic: The Gathering podcast that we guested on) Jason Chewie Slate, and Bill Bloodworth, and their buddy from Card Advantage; Aaron LaCluyze. Once again, don't drive or operate heavy machinery while listening to this one. We don't want to be responsible for any mishaps incurred while laughing hysterically.
After a longer break than planned we return with a general movie chat episode with capsule reviews of Ant-Man, Samurai Cop 2 and a few other things. We read some more amusing Amazon reviews (courtesy of @AmznMovieRevws on the Twitter), discuss Kriss's birthday message from a C&K Show hall of famer and then go over a bit of news and some recent trailers such as Ninja Turtles 2 and Batman VS Superman. Enjoy!
Cody Clarke and Jenna Ipcar are joined by Joe Grabinski, whose popular Twitter handle @AmznMovieRevws has taken the internet by storm! As always, we close the show with the mailbag, but not before a review of Chappie by Chloe Pelletier!

[Digital Drift 2014] After the uproarious reception that the Bad Reviews Against Humanity shows brought, we decided on a series of dramatic readings. This is based on a sci-fi convention game wherein one of the worst pieces of fantasy literature in history; The Eye of Argon' gets read aloud. If the current narrator laughs he or she must pass it on. We went beyond Argon by embracing a now infamous children's book, a movie script written by a longtime friend of mine, the intro to a public information film about the evils of marijuana and an article from Cracked.com on shoddy toys with worrying claims on their packaging. 1. The Eye of Argon by Jim Theis 2. Barbie: I Can Be a Computer Programmer [With Stickers] by Susan Marenco 3. Another Day at the Office by Thomas Underhill 4. Reefer Madness by Arthur Hoerl 5. The Ten Most Unintentionally Hilarious Toys Exported by China by Seanbaby http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-10-most-unintentionally-hilarious-toys-exported-by-china/ Our guest speakers this week are... * Laura Kate Dale of (among others) 'Podcastquisition' * Lou Fernandez of 'Lou Reads the Internet For You'. * Derrick Ritchie of 'The Console Ninjas Podcast'. * Lorin Grieve of the Digital Drift community. And by popular demand we begin with Lou reading out ten bad reviews from @AmznMovieRevws
[Digital Drift 2014] We're back for more incisive, scathing and occasionally insane critique from some strange people. The first installment was met with adulation from everyone. In fact this is an official warning not to listen while driving, your uncontrollable fits of hysterical laughter could result in catastrophic car pile-ups. Once again these mini-review snippets were gleaned from the Twitter feed @AmznMovieRevws who very kindly retweeted our show for us. For this episode Sharon and I recruited Neil Taylor of GameBurst, James Carter of Cane and Rinse and Lorin Grieve of the Digital Drift Community.Once again our reading is a cocktail of the shocking, competitive play of Cards Against Humanity with the theatrical performance of the much missed GameSpot YouTube show Feedbackula.
[Digital Drift 2014] Amazon has a long tradition of unreasonable, miserable and occasionally downright cretinous user reviews. The Twitter feed @AmznMovieRevws is a treasure trove of some of the silliest of these. For this episode Sharon and I got together with former Digital Cowboy Paul Shotton and Cane and Rinse alumni Josh Garrity and we had a bit of a game. I passed out fifteen reviews each and we competed for fifteen rounds to see who could read the most facepalm-inducing nugget of critical appraisal. Prepare thy sides, for they shall split. Some of these reviewers come up with the most splutteringly random of reasons why they don't like movies that are largely agreed upon to be rather great. I shall definitely be revisiting this format.
ONE HEAT MINUTE is the podcast examining Michael Mann's 1995 L.A crime opus HEAT minute by minute. It's the 140th minute (2:19:00 -2:20:00) - host Blake Howard joins Joe Grabinski. Blake and Joe rave about the relatability of the characters in isolation from high stakes heists and the sheer devastation of the magnitude of Charlene (Ashley Judd) cutting Chris (Val Kilmer) loose.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/donations
