¿Qué tienen en común Daredevil y Green Arrow? Entre otras cosas, que ambos son héroes de corte callejero y que fueron relanzados por el mismo guionista de cara a establecerlos a ambos para el siglo XXI. Nos referimos (¡oh, sorpresa!) a Kevin Smith, que a finales de los noventa hizo ocho números de la nueva "Marvel Knights: Daredevil" con la saga "Diablo Guardian" y que a principios del siglo XXI daría el salto a DC para hacer quince números de "Green Arrow" ("Carcaj" y otras historias). En este episodio charlamos sobre ambas y sobre como afecta el paso del tiempo al releer historias que en su momento nos fliparon, entre nuestras tonterías habituales.

Guía turística cinéfila de Los Ángeles con Samuel Melero: pistolas, neones, comida y alguna que otra anécdota sorprendente. En Cine de barra siempre hemos defendido que viajar está bien… pero viajar siguiendo localizaciones de películas está muchísimo mejor. Por eso, en este nuevo episodio nos vamos directamente a Los Ángeles, la ciudad donde puedes cruzarte con una estrella de Hollywood, un vagabundo disfrazado de Spider-Man o una localización de Heat… todo en la misma calle y probablemente en menos de diez minutos. Gracias al gran Samuel Melero, auténtico explorador de escenarios cinematográficos y persona capaz de orientarse en Los Ángeles sin acabar llorando en una autopista de doce carriles, recorremos algunos de los lugares más míticos del cine moderno. Porque claro, una cosa es ver Terminator 2 en casa y otra muy distinta es plantarte delante del canal de hormigón donde Arnold protegía al pobre John Connor mientras medio planeta aprendía que el futuro daba bastante miedo. También nos detenemos en escenarios de Heat, esa película que convirtió Los Ángeles en el lugar ideal para tomarte un café… o atracar un banco con elegancia. Y, cómo no, aparecen rincones relacionados con El caballero oscuro, porque Christopher Nolan tiene la extraña habilidad de hacer que cualquier edificio parezca importante y amenazante a la vez. Pero el episodio no se queda en las localizaciones clásicas. Aquí también hay espacio para el turismo especializado, concretamente el turismo para gente que sueña con entrar en un restaurante y pensar: “aquí podría aparecer Samuel L. Jackson gritando algo”. Sí, hablamos de lugares imprescindibles para fans de Tarantino, esos sitios donde uno espera encontrarse una conversación absurda sobre hamburguesas antes de que alguien saque una katana. Y por si fuera poco, Samuel comparte una anécdota con Kevin Smith que demuestra dos cosas: que el universo a veces tiene sentido del humor y que las historias improvisadas suelen ser mejores que las preparadas. El resultado es un episodio perfecto para cinéfilos viajeros, viajeros cinéfilos o simplemente gente que quiere escuchar cómo otros recorren Los Ángeles mientras ellos están atrapados en un atasco mucho menos cinematográfico. Ponte las gafas de sol, súbete al coche imaginario y acompáñanos en este paseo entre neones, crimen ficticio y amor absoluto por el cine.

Kevin Smith's Clerks The 1990s were a strange, wondrous, and hopeful decade for Cinema. Three decades later we look back on those mid 90s attitudes, trends, screams, and shouts. With the emergence of Sundance, The Weinsteins, and voices such as Tarantino, Fincher, Rodriguez, and others, Independent Cinema was flexing in a way that threatened the studios in much the same way the 70s thrilled, excited, and - most importantly - challenged that audience. This week we look at one of the loudest and unlikliest voices to emerge from this decade; A Coming of Age, Adulthood focused story following the lives of convenience store workers, Kevin Smith's 1994 classic Clerks. Thirty-two years later the anger, frustration, and hopelessness of our collective futures remain. Smith (working as a convenience store clerk while supporting his passion for writing and filmmaking) would give purpose to that anger with a foul-mouthed, pessimistic, and hopeless look at blue-collar jobs and the people who are swallowed by them. Through the lives of two best friends, Dante & Randall (with a couple of pot-dealing morons names Jay & Silent Bob singing the chorus), Smith gave voice to the fears, inhibitions, and cynicism of the 90s and the working mans' struggle. Most importantly, how does all of this relate to us? Well, we are all mired in the aimlessness and calcification of the 40 hour work week. Clerks spoke volumes to a generation unsure of itself. Thirty-two years later that volume has not dimmed. Take a listen and let us know what you think. As always we can be reached at gondoramos@yahoo.com - Many, Many Thanks.

Jason Mewes joins Nerdtropolis Mayor Sean Tajipour on Reel Insights to talk about Five Things with Jay Mewes, his new YouTube series that turns celebrity interviews into a hangout inside a convenience store. In this conversation, Mewes opens up about why the show feels like the perfect full-circle project after Clerks, how the format brings out unexpected stories from guests, and why his episode with Kevin Smith revealed stories even he had never heard before. Mewes also talks about becoming part of the Murdoch Mysteries universe, his love for comfort shows like Psych and Monk, and why he would still love to see Jay and Silent Bob enter Fortnite. He even shows off his gaming setup while discussing Call of Duty, Chronic Blunt Punch, and the fan campaign to get Jay and Silent Bob skins into the game.The conversation also gets personal as Mewes reflects on recovery, nearly 16 years of sobriety, and the fans who tell him his openness helped them through their own journeys. Plus, he teases the future of Jay and Silent Bob, including Kevin Smith's already-written Jay and Silent Bob's Star Wars script and hopes for another big-screen reunion.Visit Nerdtropolis.comFacebook.com/nerdtropolisInstagram.com/nerdtropolisTwitter.com/nerdtropolisTikTok.com/@nerdtropolis
Christopher Downie's filmmaking journey began the same way many indie filmmakers start—with VHS tapes, cheap cameras, and a deep obsession with movies. But after discovering Kevin Smith's Clerks and the View Askewniverse films, filmmaking transformed from a hobby into an identity. In this episode, Christopher shares the unbelievable story behind Shooting Clerks, the ambitious biopic about the making of Clerks, and how years of fan films, persistence, and sheer determination eventually earned the support of Kevin Smith himself.The conversation dives deep into the realities of independent filmmaking: actors not showing up, productions collapsing, hard drives failing days before premieres, crowdfunding chaos, and the constant need to improvise under pressure. But beneath the filmmaking war stories is a larger lesson about creativity itself—that great indie filmmaking often comes from limitations, not resources. Christopher's story becomes a reminder that the DIY spirit that inspired Clerks decades ago is still alive today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

Look, I know what the episode title says. Dixon's out of town, John and Ryan are off the rails. This is some serious bullshit and we're gonna have to thank you extra for putting up with it, but none of it has anything to do with the pre-9/11 animated film that has been memed into oblivion --so don't even ask! If you really want to know what it's about, I can tell you... lean in close... closer... okay that's close enough....This episode is about an hour and a half of nothing related to shrek.
Masters of the Universe opening weekend box office is tracking at around $25 million, which is lower than even Tron: Ares, which opened at $33 million. That's... not good. Not for what the movie cost. Somewhat related, Amazon has yanked Henry Cavill's Voltron from a theatrical release -- it's possible this is because He-Man is tracking so low.

Andy Walsh and Kevin Schaefer dive into the fascinating world of unmade superhero films, specifically focusing on Kevin Smith's screenplay for "Superman Lives." This legendary script, which never made it to the big screen, is a treasure trove of comic book references and unique storytelling that reflects the quirky style of Smith. The duo discusses the plot, featuring Brainiac's quest for Kryptonian technology and Superman's epic showdown with Doomsday, all while exploring the themes of identity and sacrifice. They reminisce about the cultural impact of the "Death of Superman" narrative and how it resonates in today's superhero landscape. Plus, every dime from this episode goes to support local libraries, proving that all reading counts, whether it's a screenplay, comic, or classic novel. So, grab your cape and get ready to explore a piece of cinema history that could have been! The latest episode of Systematic Geekology dives headfirst into the wild world of unmade superhero films, specifically focusing on Kevin Smith's screenplay for Superman Lives—a project that tantalizingly danced on the edge of production before disappearing into the realm of ‘what could have been'. Andy Walsh and Kevin Schaefer kick things off with a cheeky banter about the geek culture that surrounds them, setting the tone for a laid-back yet insightful discussion. They explore the colorful history of Superman Lives, a film that was supposed to bring Nicolas Cage into the tights of the Man of Steel, and how it was influenced by comic book storylines like the Death of Superman. Through a witty exchange, they highlight the screenplay's unique elements, including Brainiac's quest for power and the inclusion of various characters like Doomsday and Lex Luthor, all while emphasizing the creativity that Smith brought to the table amidst the chaotic demands of studio executives. As they delve deeper into the screenplay, Andy and Kevin dissect the narrative structure, acknowledging its classic three-act setup while playfully critiquing its more outlandish elements, such as the infamous giant spider—a request from producer Jon Peters that has become a meme in itself. They share their thoughts on how the script blends humor with superheroics, portraying Superman as a character who grapples with both his heroic responsibilities and personal relationships, particularly with Lois Lane. With a sprinkle of nostalgia, Andy reflects on the script's potential to resonate with audiences, had it been realized in the 90s, and the profound impact it might have had on the superhero genre. The duo wraps up with their personal reflections on the legacy of Superman Lives and its lasting influence on comic book adaptations, while promoting the importance of reading in all its forms, aligning perfectly with their mission of supporting public libraries through the episode's proceeds.Takeaways:In this episode of Systematic Geekology, Andy and Kevin dive deep into the screenplay for Superman Lives, exploring the wild, untamed ideas that never made it to the big screen.The discussion highlights how Kevin Smith's script embodied a unique blend of comic book lore, humor, and heartfelt character moments, particularly between Clark Kent and Lois Lane.Superman Lives serves as a fascinating case study of a film that almost was, illustrating the challenges and creative decisions that define Hollywood's tumultuous relationship with superhero adaptations.Listeners can appreciate how the episode ties back to the podcast's mission—promoting literacy and the importance of reading in all forms, including screenplays and comics.The conversation touches on the significant cultural impact of the Death of Superman storyline and how its treatment in Smith's script reflects the era's comic book landscape.With proceeds from the episode supporting public libraries, the hosts remind us that engaging with literature in all its forms is vital for community enrichment and personal growth..Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of our "All Reading Counts" series:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/3706021e-22e5-4598-ae1d-732ec8e275a9.Listen to all of our DCU / DCAU episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/8c9da262-e657-44a7-b14a-9649933f5347.Check out other episodes with Kevin:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/84fd7d06-cf1f-48e5-b358-09a01c5a6bc9.Listen to all of Andy's episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/c86f7a67-357b-4324-bf95-e42cedb9932aMentioned in this episode:Subscribe to our show on YouTubeYou can get the video version of the show and lots of extra exclusives on our YouTube channel!YouTubeThe Anazao Podcast NetworkBe sure to check out the network website to see other podcasts trying to engage honestly with Scripture, Theology, Pop Culture, Martial Arts, Science, and more!Anazao Podcast NetworkDonate to our Show / Check Out Free ExtrasCheck out our show on Fourthwall to donate to the podcast or get free extra content!SG on FourthwallFollow us on Instagram and BlueSky to keep up to date!Follow our show on our socials to keep up to date and get some exclusive content and fun memes!Systematic GeekologyOur show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective.

Sean and Parker are back! They discuss a couple of things before doing a commentary for the Clerks unaired pilot from 1995. It stars Jim Bruer, Keri Russell, the girl from Ernest Saved Christmas, one of the guys from the Buffy movie and somehow had no involvement from Kevin Smith! All this and then the boys discuss the Godfrey Ho classic "Undefeatable" from 1993. The movie has a reputation for being terrible, but is it? In it, Cynthia Rothrock is an underground fighter who helps a cop track down a Norman Bates-esque killer who happens to be very good at karate. The film is known as "Bloody Mary Killer" in Asian markets. Direct Donloyd. After listening to the episode, join the Patreon or subscribe to the YouTube page!

Dave: Absolute Batman #20 (Skottie Young) Chris: Bleeding Hearts #4 (Juni Ba Variant) Interview: Robbie Williams - Hidden Springs - Rend and Tear and Tooth and Claw - Feature film Game 1. Hidden Springs has such a wonderfully strange premise: retired Hollywood legends protecting a baby kaiju. Where did the initial spark for this story come from, and when did you realize this was the right mix of heart, comedy, and monster chaos? 2. The cast of characters is incredibly eclectic, from a rocker reminiscent of Ozzy Osbourne to a classic Hollywood beauty, a trailblazing female director, a stand-up comedian, and a career TV star. How did you approach building such different personalities and making them feel like a believable found family? 3. Nil Vendrell Pallach is handling the art. What did Nil bring to the project visually that made them the perfect collaborator for a story that moves between comedy, nostalgia, and kaiju action? 4. There's something inherently funny about ageing celebrities being the only ones capable of protecting a world-ending monster. What interested you about pairing the idea of aging, fading fame, and second chances with something as huge and destructive as a kaiju? 5. With all these Hollywood types, I was reminded of Caccoon, about a group of old folks who encounter an alien eggs that give them youth, with your new series on the way do you think this the old person encountering sci-fi elements is an underused corner of fiction? 6. What made dark horse the right publisher for this? 7. You've written everything from Judge Dredd to Petrol Head. Where does Hidden Springs sit for you creatively? Does it tap into a different storytelling muscle compared to your other work? 8. (Fun question) Your heroes include a rocker, a comedian, a movie star, and a legendary beauty escorting a baby kaiju across the countryside. If you had to add one more retired celebrity archetype to the team, who would it be and what ridiculous skill would they bring to the kaiju babysitting mission?

Thyroid Symptoms, Normal Labs, and Root Causes: Dr. Kevin Smith on Hashimoto's, Functional Medicine, and Chronic Conditions | Conversations with a Chiropractor Episode Description In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier sits down with Dr. Kevin Smith, a functional medicine practitioner and founder of the Chronic Conditions Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Dr. Smith specializes in helping people better understand the root causes behind chronic health problems, including thyroid dysfunction, gut issues, autoimmunity, chronic pain, inflammation, peripheral neuropathy, insulin resistance, and other complex conditions. This conversation focuses heavily on thyroid health, especially the frustration many people feel when they have symptoms of hypothyroidism, but are told their labs are "normal." Dr. Smith explains why thyroid symptoms can involve far more than a simple TSH reading, and why many cases of hypothyroidism may be connected to Hashimoto's disease, an autoimmune condition that affects the thyroid. Stephanie and Dr. Smith talk through common thyroid symptoms, including fatigue, hair loss, weak nails, digestive changes, sleep issues, brain fog, mood changes, infertility, and skin problems. They also discuss why a deeper look at the body may include the immune system, gut health, liver function, blood sugar, cortisol, sex hormones, inflammation, food sensitivities, unresolved infections, and nutrient status. The episode also explores the difference between managing symptoms and looking for the underlying reasons a person may not feel well. Dr. Smith shares how he uses detailed intake forms, comprehensive lab testing, metabolic questionnaires, food sensitivity testing, lifestyle changes, nutrition, supplements, and retesting to help patients better understand what is happening in their body. This conversation is educational and is not a replacement for personal medical care. If you are dealing with thyroid symptoms, autoimmune concerns, medication questions, or chronic health issues, work with a qualified healthcare provider who can evaluate your individual situation. In This Episode, Discover Common symptoms of hypothyroidism and low thyroid function Why "normal labs" may not tell the whole story The connection between Hashimoto's disease and thyroid dysfunction Why Dr. Smith describes many thyroid issues as immune system issues How the brain, pituitary gland, thyroid, liver, gut, and carrier proteins all play a role in thyroid function Why every cell in the body depends on thyroid hormone for energy regulation How chronic inflammation, blood sugar issues, cortisol, sex hormones, food sensitivities, and infections may affect thyroid physiology Why comprehensive lab testing may reveal patterns missed by basic panels The difference between food allergy testing and food sensitivity testing How lifestyle changes, nutrition, supplements, and retesting fit into functional medicine care Why patients may need to take a more active role in understanding their health Stay Connected & Explore Learn More About Dr. Kevin Smith & Metabolic Solutions: Dr. Kevin Smith / Metabolic Solutions: https://www.metabolicsolutions.net/ Free 2-Minute Metabolic Health Assessment: https://www.metabolicsolutions.net/metabolic-scorecard/ Chronic Conditions Center: https://www.chronicpa.com/ Connect with Conversations with a Chiropractor: Follow Us on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@ConversationswithaChiro Follow Dr. Stephanie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wautierwellness Email for show-related inquiries and sponsorships: drstephaniewautier@yahoo.com Want to be a guest on Conversations with a Chiropractor?

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay find a kid stuck in the elevator while they head to the mall to discuss the 1995 comedy staple, 'Mallrats.' Andy starts things off with a story about an old man he used to drink and smoke with outside a mall whose body didn't react well to all the imbibing.Then the fellas say breakfast, shmreakfast as they discuss a VHS favorite that fully embodied the look and dialogue of '90s comedies. Filmed back in an era when hanging out at malls was commonplace for the youth, this was Kevin Smith's sophomore effort which wound up being a coming out party for star Jason Lee. Even though it was packed with pithy lines, and killer performances from the likes of Jason Mewes, it also exposed Smith as not being the most deft hand behind the camera. That doesn't matter however when you have a young Shannen Doherty, a gorgeous Claire Forlani, and a smouldering Joey Lauren Adams in front of the camera to distract from the uninspired direction. It's a hard-R nerd comedy filled with social rejects, who provide a fun-filled 90-plus minutes that will have your 13-year-old inner self chuckling the whole time.

This week on No More Late Fees, Danielle and Jackie head back to the mall to revisit the 1995 cult classic Mallrats, directed by Kevin Smith.When two best friends get dumped on the same day, they spend their time wandering a suburban mall, getting into ridiculous situations, questioning love, and encountering some very memorable characters along the way.We're diving into Kevin Smith's early career, the film's journey from box office disappointment to cult favorite, and why this movie still resonates with anyone who grew up treating the mall like a second home.In this episodeOur Y2K ratings compared to nowThe rise of Kevin Smith and the View AskewniverseBen Affleck before he was Ben AffleckJay and Silent Bob momentsMall culture in the 90sDoes this movie still hold up·Season 6 Episode 2·No More Late Fees https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com909-601-NMLF (6653)—Follow Us on Social:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nomorelatefees TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nomorelatefees Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/nomorelatefees Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@nomorelatefees Twitterhttps://x.com/NoMoreLateFees —CONQUERingmyconquering.com 10% Off Code: JACKIE10—DescriptCreator Plan 50% off 2 monthshttps://descript.cello.so/zp4OQqeIMdq

Clerks III (2022)Director: Kevin SmithCast: Brian O'Halloran, Jeff Anderson, Jason Mewes, Kevin SmithKevin Smith had a heart attack, rewrote his legacy, and somehow made a movie that retroactively makes us like his older films less. This week on Dewey Pod Monster, we close out "April and the Threequel" by finally confronting the most threatened episode in show history: Clerks III. We've been dreading this one for four years. It was worse than we remembered.In this episode, we discuss:The Nostalgia Cash-In That Went Too Far — Clerks III is essentially Kevin Smith remaking his own movie while reselling a heart attack story you've already heard on his podcast and live tour. We've paid for this content before.Comedy That Forgot to Be Funny — The film swings for emotional drama without earning it, leaving beloved characters stranded in a tone that doesn't fit them. It's neither funny enough to work as a comedy nor written well enough to land as a drama.The Rosario Dawson Problem — She was one of the best things about Clerks II, and here she's reduced to a ghost who tells her grieving husband she's sleeping with celebrities in heaven. It's a baffling choice that retroactively damages the previous film's ending.Who the Hell Is This Movie For? — Too recycled for longtime fans and too niche for newcomers, Clerks III only seems to work if you watched it live with Kevin Smith in the room. At home on your couch, it just doesn't work.We Also Talked About:WrestleMania 42 (ESPN) (2026) — Both hosts tuned in out of habit and left empty. Over-commercialization, ads during wrestler entrances, a CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns main event that nobody asked for, and a streaming situation so fragmented neither host could even find where to watch it.Louis Theroux Documentaries (Dailymotion) — Sean went deep into Theroux's hour-long doc series including Extreme Love (dementia and caregiving), a trans kids episode, and Heroin Town USA — a gutting look at opiate addiction in a small Virginia town from the mid-2010s.Cop Game (Tubi) (1988) — Directed by Bruno Mattei under the alias Bob Hunter, this Filipino-shot Vietnam War action film stars Brent Huff and features miniature toy cars in chase scenes, two songs on a loop, and an ending so abrupt it barely qualifies as one. Sean watched it. He has regrets. He's still going to watch more Bruno Mattei films.Hellmare Trailer (Youtube)— John got an early look at this upcoming horror film from local filmmaker Victor Gabriel (of Blood Gorge and Cruel), and he's genuinely excited. Meta horror elements, great visuals, real craft on display. A small premiere is coming — watch this space.Movie Theater Massacre (Tubi) (2023) — Shot at the historic Redford Theater in Redford, Michigan, this COVID-era local slasher features a butter knife as a murder weapon and a Linnea Quigley cameo. It's not great. It exists.Scanner Cop 2 (Youtube) (1995)— John watched it. His dog was audibly disturbed by the psychic screaming noises. Kane Hodder is in it. Robert Forster is in it and deserved better. The highlight is a villain who threatens to "kill you so bad."New episodes of the Dewey Pod Monster podcast drop every week.

In honor of 4/20 we're doing a movie length podcast blabbing about the man behind Silent Bob. Holden Mcneely (Who had that name before Chasing Amy came out!) guides us through his history, his filmography (Yes, all of it),, and oh yeah, Mike gives him some credit to the man behind the View Askewniverse for revitalizing the Marvel universe. Ultimately all three hosts lean on the side of celebrating a man who had the courage to bet on himself and his friends and make a thing and be a nerd ambassador at an important moment in our childhoods..

Kevin Smith's lovable supporting characters Jay and Silent Bob take the lead on this 2001 roadtrip/stoner comedy. Mike thinks Mewes overdid the schtick, but Johnny loved it.
