MOR TAL KOM BAT!!! WELCOME to the first of THREE two-fer franchises that we will be covering on THIS PODCAST RIGHT HERE. Matt's franchise pick is up first and that, of course, is "Mortal Kombat." The two films that comprise this ultimate franchise are 1995's "Mortal Kombat," followed by 1997's "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation." This episode covers the Paul W.S. Anderson 1995 classic film and not the 2021 version (although that one may pop up soon if you are a subscriber of our Patreon page!) Our guest for this episode is the host of the NerdOutcast Podcast, Chris Bashen! If you're IN THE KNOW, you'd know that the L2W boyz were recently guests on Chris's show to discuss the "Predator" film series. Well, guess what? WE GOT HIM TO ENTER THE THUNDERDOME AND COME TO OUR SHOW, MUAHAHAHA!!    As always, here is the official synopsis for this classic film: "A Hollywood elite, Veronica Vaughn, and Liu Kang are summoned by Highlander to enter Mortal Com....ahem, KOMbat, an ancient tournament that is held once every hundred years or something. If they lose then our world will be destroyed, but if they win...then we get to hear that Halcyon + On + On song from "Hackers"...you know the one."   Listen to Chris Bashen's NerdOutcast Podcast: https://nerdoutcast.podbean.com Follow Chris Bashen on Twitter: @cbashen Check out his website too: www.chrisbashen.com   Thanks to C.ROCC for bangin' out hit after hit with these custom intro songs.

Chris Bashen has been a guest on So Many Bits several times to talk about video games, but did you know he makes them too? He's the guy behind the (digital) guy: he's been The Joker, Firestorm Shang Tsung, and more as a motion-capture actor with Netherrealm! We took a very cool look at the behind the scenes of the cutscenes in some of the past decade's most cinematically ambitious games.The Amazing World of Gumball had their own ambitious take on Final Fantasy VII, and Brandon Shockney and Bill talk about it in this episode's Screenwatching!Screenwatching: The Amazing World of Gumball (1:55)Interview: Chris Bashen (25:05)Bill's Magic Minute (59:16)

A while back, we surpassed our 100th episode and totally FORGOT TO CELEBRATE.  So now, host Chris Bashen finally reconciles that problem. What happens when you get 17 nerds on 9 different mics across 3 stations with a TON of alcohol? A menagerie of ponderous nerd thoughts. We chat about so much: which Ninja turtle can die, which Bond is the best Bond, and who is the better leader...Adama or Picard? We discuss our favorite video game heroes, the best Miyazaki films, and finally figure out if the Star Wars prequels did anything right. There's a lot to unpack in this special episode, so enjoy and thank you for many great years, dear listeners!

For the past several years Bit Bash has offered a platform for indy game makers to show their projects in the Chicago area. This week Bill chats with Rob Lach, who curates the games seen at the events to get an idea of how they do it! Plus, Chris Bashen of the Nerd Outcast Podcast joins Bill to chat Star Trek: The Next Generation for Screenwatching along with the games he's played!

Our discussion of Final Fantasy Tactics continues! Chris Bashen is back to cover game mechanics, the toughest moments in the game, and the legacy of the series!

Chris Bashen returns to talk about the classic game Final Fantasy Tactics. A personal favorite, the first half of their discussion centers on game mechanics, series history, and how they discovered the game!

What happens when one of the biggest filmmakers ever remakes a French goof 'em up with the star of Pumping Iron? Yes, we're finally discussing TRUE LIES, the 1994 James Cameron action comedy that gave us the one tolerable Tom Arnold performance of the 90s! Joining us in the "studio" this week is special guest Chris Bashen (of the Nerd Outcast Podcast and web series The Studio fame!) and we pull out all the stops making him feel welcome. We also spend some time talking about True Lies! We got a little bit of everything this time around: Jon invents a Turing Test inspired by Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, Patrick somehow manages to slip in yet another Heaven's Gate reference, Chris explains international space property tax law, we investigate the origins of Bazooka Joe, and we release our sequel to Seal's "Kiss From A Rose." PLUS: the return of Paul Giamatti, who explains how movies are made!

This week, we're joined by special guest Chris Bashen of The Nerd Outcast Podcast to discuss the seedy underbelly of our FAVORITE MOVIE SPIES! Surprisingly enough, nobody chose Robert Redford OR Brad Pitt from Spy Game. What kind of world are we living in!? Listen as we cover all the pertinent espionage bases, while somehow skipping over most of the pertinent espionage bases! We speculate on Elton John's role in The Kingsman sequel, Jon chooses a spy from a movie he dislikes, we once again invoke the pleasure and pain of the Cenobites, Patrick and Chris make a date to watch The Kingsman, Mark nails his impression of Halle Berry in Monster's Ball, and we talk about Kingsman so much it's a surprise NONE OF US CHOSE ANY OF THE SPIES FROM IT AS OUR FAVORITE SPIES.

While we continue to get our full-length radio drama production of Indiana Jones and the Monkey King up (listen to the trailer here!) for the 200th episode, we continue on to 201 with Michael Bay's 1996 explosion-fest The Rock! Featuring Michael Bay's signature excess and kineticism before many people got sick of it, The Rock stars Sean Connery and Nic Cage as an unlikely duo who need to stop a crazed former general (Ed Harris) from gassing San Francisco after holing himself up in the prison island of Alcatraz. Chris Bashen of Nerd Outcast Podcast joins us to ask the hard questions, like: Isn't Ed Harris actually right? Why does this movie get a pass from people who hate Michael Bay? What happened to Park Ranger Bob? Take a listen and check out our custom cocktail and drinking game! (Thanks to our sponsor Lodge Management Group and Wingfest, as part of the Chicago Podcast Coop!)
