Podcasts about Plot device

Gaviscon uses his latest Plot Device™ to summon the great Decepticon weapon Majin Zarak from the distant past to Planet Gaia, and it's up to Lio Convoy and the Maximals to stop it. Lio Junior is all like "no way! two can play!" and uses the same doohickey to bring in Garry Primal all the way from Planet Energon, and the hypest team up since Kane & The Undertaker was formed.Subscribe to our Patreon to access exclusive content at https://www.patreon.com/lazorcombVideo Version:https://youtu.be/fyv-hy3oLaAShow Links:https://linktr.ee/lazorcombJoin The Lazor Comb Discord:https://discord.gg/AEMkmvud3kBuy a TOO MUCH ENERGON! t-shirt:https://www.teepublic.com/user/too-much-energon ★ Support this podcast ★

This week starts with Tyler explaining time travel, and Matt explaining football. In the end, both of them are still kind of confused. Next, Matt talks about his recent vacation, as well as a problem he’s having with his car. Well, he thinks it’s the car. Maybe it’s just a wire? Nobody really knows. Then, Matt shares exciting news about his upcoming move. Tyler raises some concerns, and tells him to only eat sandwiches for three days. They both complain about large companies and their automated phone systems. The main topic and spoiler slot is Black Widow.

First episode in a... week? A few days? I don't know, school is melting my brain. Wolfsong and Lilymoon discuss the Code of plot devices. Sorry if were a bit tired, and if we post fewer episodes lately, school makes it kind of difficult. Anyway, hope you like us talking about rules and moaning.

Jared and Teresa discuss "the baby plot device" -- where TV shows with lazy writing shoehorn pregnancies and kids into storylines that serve no other purpose than to.. what, exactly? Spoilers for Big Bang Theory and Westworld! Also, their new, still-to-be-named feature shares a story from a listener who wanted to share his hilarious experience after listening to Episode 2!

On this episode, Katy represents the Soft-Spoken — or SS’s, as they preferred to be called — and shares a comforting (?) but unlikely JK Rowling theory (in reality she’s just a TERF). Then, Katy dives into her “summary” of James Balwin’s “Giovanni’s Room,” which ends up sounding a lot more like a very dark retelling of a particular animated film about a rat chef... Molly eventually takes the reigns and walks us through what actually happens in the 1956 queer classic and the sisters wrap up by answering two more of your CFLAMA questions (and Katy finally remembers what it’s called!)

Today’s Hook: The party awakens from a dream that starts coming true, but everyone’s dream ended differently. (Game Hook #403 by Critical Dice on Instagram) What’s that? Rob finally starts winning initiative again and we suddenly get treated to yetanotherepisode about dreams? Who knew restoring the Rightful Order to the Universe would carry such consequences..? Or bring forth such a treasure of a #newadventurehook! For not only did the Adventure Hook guys have this über-interesting idea to work with, but this episode sports a number of firsts, included the first really-and-truly start-to-finish fleshed out beats of a complete adventure… as well as featuring the brand new resource it was created with… Introducing: “The Plot Device”! And this episode the guys use its skeleton of a mind-map in all sorts of different ways… from the simple beats of an old skool Five-Room Dungeon, to plotting out an epic adventure of various storylines all running parallel, or even imagining multiple possible timelines and how they might conflict (or overlap), this simple flow-chart-of-choice may be just the mandala to inspire (and help flesh out) your next sci-fi game, existential human drama, or interactive RPG bedtime story..! For this episode relied heavily on speculative science fiction to imagine up a number of First Contact scenarios, and an alien invitation for Humanity to join an intergalactic federation that might just be a little too good to be true… especially for certain psychic player characters… Is mankind now suddenly rocketing into a futuristic utopia… or an impending genocide? Or more chillingly… could it somehow be headed towards both at the same time..? From your favorite traditional tabletop system, to a simple story-based game of 100 Plot Points, Rob shows how anyone can use the game mechanic of the Prisoner’s Dilemma to navigate players through the various choices framed by the Plot Device… and which can also terminate “prematurely” for those who wind up choosing martyrdom (or villainy)… while Aaron reviews some of the more interesting mechanics worth considering from the Numenera RPG system, particularly the use of the clever “GM Intrusion” to reveal either a Danger, Boon, or Secret (all in a dream of course) from any of the beats of the Device. Plus..! This episode Aaron fails his saving throw against Storytelling Juice and finally admits his deep love of making pop-culture references (really leaning into it this show)… which again naturally includes his profound fondness of all things Star Trek! Bonus XP if you can count the number of times kool-aid gets mentioned… Banter Topic: at the behest of Adventure Hook’s newest Patreon supporter, this episode the guys revisit the 5-Room Dungeon idea imagined by JohnnFour (of roleplayingtips.com) they’d explored back in Season 1… and this time really expand on it by showing how this concept also parallels a number of other very important storytelling ideas… including the beats of an action sequence from a screenwriter’s perspective, the Cambellian Hero’s Journey, and even a slice from the Zodiac itself! All this in the valiant pursuit of actually creating a much, much more concise storyline this time around… (I know, I know) but regardless of how it all started, this coupled with the episode’s Hook (plus the need for a certain ten year old’s bedtime lights-out to come at a reasonable hour) was what actually inspired the entire Plot Device resource in the first place… and by the time you’ve finished listening to the episode you too may have your own rewarding ideas of how best to bring out the “role” in your players’ roleplaying… HASHTAGS #plotdevice #5RoomDungeon #bedtimestory #bedtimestories #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dungeons #dnd5e #podcast #dndpodcast #podernfamily #rpg #roleplaying #roleplayinggame #dndcharacter #rpgs #rpggames #tabletop #tabletopgames #tabletopgaming #tabletopgame #ttrpg #gaming #Combopod #gamer #gamers #ra...

In this episode, we meet the protagonists of our frame tale: seven young women and three young men, who decide to hide out from the plague in a palace outside the city. The organisation of this venture, for some reason, requires several lengthy speeches that don't so much 'betray' Giovanni's misogyny as 'parade' it...and after a while, I quite lost patience with him.

This week, we're talking about a film that's mostly about social distancing. That's right— we created a sequel to 2015's slow-burn horror hit, The Witch! Ahem... excuse me, I mean "The VVitch". And this wouldn't be a true New England Folktale without the man of 1000 New England accents himself, Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, who (in a shocking Plot Device development) voices all of our characters. So hey, it's a weird one. Live deliciously and tune in!#CatchSequelitis

S4E07.1: Plot Device goes where no episode has gone before: a musical! It's also Star Trek for no particular reason. In this episode, we spit lyrics about a Vulcan who has been asleep for a long time, and who finds that the society he left behind has changed in ways that he disagrees with, ways that can only be expressed... in song! It's Star Trek as you've never seen it, and as you never will, since this is a podcast and you don't really see anything. But the description of what you would be seeing! Hoo boy, that's some good description. Pitch us your movie idea at plotdevicepodcast@gmail.com or on twitter @PlotDevicePod Music Credits: The Complex, Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

Will this improvised Star War include cool franchise staples like spaceship races, charming rogues, and decomposing stormtroopers on an eternal vigil inside a sarlaac pit? Does a wookie love vowels?! All these answers and more as your Plot Device rebels plot to overthrow the evil empire of second drafts.

S.04, E02.1 THE INSECT QUEEN FROM NIGHTMARE RANCH "With her six legs, she rode a dusty trail of vengeance!" For the Halloween season, Plot Device gets kooky and spooky with a tale of insect rampage, insect science, and the (non-insect) army! Who is the Insect Queen? What does she want? Can she be stopped? What's the insect version of a raccoon? All this and more will be revealed in the first of two episodes dedicated to a brand-new, fake movie invented by the usual suspects. Note: do not tell us that spiders aren't insects. We figure that out eventually.

S04E01.2 THE OLD ROBOT part 2 Now that you've listened to part 1, checkout part 2: the improvised movie of THE OLD ROBOT! Plot Device understands that youths today grow up surrounded by technology – punch cards, diodes, round snowman-like robots. After a rag-tag gang of orphans find a robot left behind by an old inventor, heartwarming high-jinks and robot kung-fu ensues. But their newfound friend/toy/mad-science-experiment-run-amok holds secrets. Can a government agent stop an army of Cold War automatons and get his travel expenses reimbursed? Will FROSTY, the old robot, bring the kids together or tear them apart? Like, literally: it’s a super-strong robot built by a paranoid weaponeer!

S.04,E01.1 THE OLD ROBOT Plot Device is back! After a lengthy hiatus we dust off the microphones and dust off some old robots to make our latest creation: THE OLD ROBOT. Hi-jinks ensue when some meddling kids from a local orphanage stumble across an old robotics lab. Will their new robo friend, aka FR0STY, make the children laugh and play? Or will he lead them down the streets of town right to the robo-cop? Tune in to find out! ALSO, with a new season we're trying a new condensed form of Plot Device. This means the episodes come in 2 parts now (planning + improv) and you're probably not going to get a trailer. Sorry about that, dudes. We loves the trailers, but dang, those trailers take sooooo long to make. Anyway, enjoy this robot movie.

Barry Gray was the composer on almost every Gerry Anderson production for three decades. The man behind the iconic Thunderbirds march, Captain Scarlet's song, the driving percussion of Stingray and the funky riffs of Space:1999 year one. Thanks to Barry Gray archivist Ralph Titterton we're able to bring you an archive interview with Barry, plus a recording from a 1980s convention appearance where he brings us some amusing versions of Gerry Anderson themes! Plus the usual Randomiser and Gerry Anderson news, and Richard brings in his brand new Plot Device...

andy is a lumberjack who lives in a cabin in the woods; he's got a regular axe in a stump outside, surely. he lives in the woods and we've seen him eat meat. he's got a bow (or crossbow) or a gun in this fucking cabin. visiting random exposition guy's trailer and then smithing your own axe--that's stupid. #mandy minute 74

For this episode, we discuss Overlord, the zombie/WWII epic.  Also we enjoy some delicious French rosé. The post The Sexy Dice Plot Device appeared first on Cinemavino.
