Check out this link to buy DB's Books[link] Upcoming Episodes Grimdark Grandparents: Warhammer 40,000 and Its Pulp DNA 0. What's a W.H.40.K? — An introduction to Warhammer 40,000's immense science-fantasy horror setting, where a corpse-worshipping human empire fights aliens, daemons, ancient machines, and its own terrible history. 1. The Imperium of Man — From Dune, Foundation, Roman decline, and medieval Christendom comes a galactic empire where the future is not progress but a dead civilization kept moving through faith, fear, and paperwork. 2. Space Marines — The Imperium's iconic super-soldiers combine power armor and military science fiction with crusading knights, Spartan myth, warrior monks, kidnapped children, and the seductive imagery of authoritarian heroism. 3. Astra Militarum / Imperial Guard — Drawing from trench literature, British war comics, Kipling, and future-war fiction, the Guard are ordinary people sent into cosmic horror with little more than courage and a lasgun. 4. Adeptus Mechanicus — Frankenstein, Metropolis, invention pulp, and lost-technology stories meet in a machine cult where science survives, understanding does not, and repairs are performed like religious rites. 5. Adepta Sororitas / Ecclesiarchy — Gothic convents, martyr legends, Joan of Arc, witchfinders, and Hammer horror become armored saints who turn faith, suffering, and flamethrowers into instruments of Imperial power. 6. The Inquisition — The occult detective and witch-hunter become one terrifying Imperial investigator who may uncover the truth only to burn every witness, building, and planet touched by it. 7. Rogue Traders — Planetary romance, colonial adventure fiction, space opera, pirates, and merchant princes combine in explorers licensed to discover strange worlds, trade with them, rob them, or claim them for the Imperium. 8. Adeptus Custodes — Ancient palace guards, sacred kingship, Achilles, and Gilgamesh stand behind the Emperor's golden companions: philosopher-warriors created to protect a god who is already dead. 9. Adeptus Titanicus / Titan Legions — Giant robots descend from Martian tripods, dreadnoughts, siege engines, golems, and war gods to become walking cathedrals capable of teaching entire cities to kneel. 10. The Horus Heresy — Warhammer's great betrayal myth draws from Lucifer, Cain and Abel, Arthur and Mordred, Roman civil wars, and fallen-hero stories to explain how the Emperor's favored son broke the human future from within. 11. Chaos Space Marines — Fallen angels, Byronic rebels, cursed champions, and Milton's Satan become immortal super-soldiers whose genuine grievances have curdled into rebellion, bitterness, and damnation. 12. Chaos Daemons — Medieval demonology, grimoires, occult pulp, weird fiction, and nightmare cinema become psychic entities made from mortal rage, despair, ambition, obsession, and desire. 13. World Eaters / Khorne — Sword-and-sorcery pulp, berserker sagas, gladiator spectacle, and revenge tragedy create warriors who reduce every political, emotional, and moral problem to an axe blow. 14. Death Guard / Nurgle — Plague literature, danse macabre, zombie films, body horror, and graveyard humor meet in rotting soldiers who have surrendered to decay and discovered that the joke is that they are happy. 15. Thousand Sons / Tzeentch — Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, mummy fiction, occult scholarship, and forbidden-book stories become sorcerers who sought perfect knowledge only to discover that the book was reading them back. 16. Emperor's Children / Slaanesh — Decadent literature, Gothic aristocrats, glam horror, cursed art, and The Picture of Dorian Gray shape warriors who pursued perfection until beauty became an endlessly hungry mouth. 17. Chaos / Imperial Knights — Haunted castles, ancestral armor, chivalric romance, feudal bloodlines, and giant-robot fiction become seventy-foot war machines carrying generations of family pride, duty, resentment, and curses. 18. Orks — Fantasy orcs, Mad Max, British hooligan comedy, fungus horror, and invasive-species stories combine in a joyful alien ecosystem where killing the enemy may only plant the next war. 19. Tyranids — Alien, The Thing, bug-war fiction, parasite horror, and cosmic naturalism become an extragalactic appetite that does not hate humanity because hatred would interfere with digestion. 20. Genestealer Cults — Body-snatcher films, changeling folklore, secret-cult pulp, family curses, and invasion paranoia create an alien uprising that begins not in the sky but at the dinner table. 21. Necrons — Killer robots and artificial-labor nightmares combine with mummy curses, tomb kings, and cursed archaeology to produce immortal metal dynasties waking from the grave with better weapons than the living. 22. Aeldari / Drukhari — Elves, cruel fairy courts, dying-earth fiction, lost civilizations, decadent aristocrats, and vampire cities become two responses to apocalypse: mourning the fall or continuing the party forever. 23. Night Lords — Batman, slashers, serial killers, Gothic villains, Grand Guignol, and public-execution culture become terror troops who transform punishment into theatre and fear into government. 24. T'au Empire and Leagues of Votann — The T'au combine utopian science fiction, anime mecha, and benevolent imperialism, while the Votann draw from mining frontiers, company towns, clone labor, ancestor cults, and corporate survivalism. 25. [REDACTED] — ▀▀▀ thrillers, ▀▀▀▀▀▀ societies, ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀, invasion ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀, Dr. ▀▀▀▀▀▀, and ▀▀▀▀▀ mythology become a Space Marine legion so committed to ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ that truth itself is rendered operationally ▀▀▀▀▀▀.     Audio Book Stories   01 Introduction.

Hey! were back for some comic book fun where the boys from my second favorite podcast, Raised By Rentals, join the show to make up some crazy new super heroes for our listeners to enjoy! I hope you're ready for the adventures of Pet Rock, The Panda Maniac, Death stab, Snail Trail, Helen Keller and Swiss Army Man as they fight the villainous Glow Bones and Pretty Hate Machine! Enjoy! 

In Swiss Army Man, Daniel Radcliffe plays a dead body. That concept alone should be enough to interest you, but if you need more, it also stars Paul Dano as a guy who's stranded on an island. It's also directed by Daniels, the duo behind Everything Everwhere All At Once. You need more information?

With the magical Wizarding World franchise remaining a massive cinematic staple and fans constantly revisiting the classic fantasy films, we are diving deep into the movie vaults to break down the incredible tension, growing stakes, and massive tonal shift of the fifth installment: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

A movie from 2006 looks like it could have come out last year. The cars are the same. The computers are the same. The fashion, the cinematography, the music -- all of it effectively unchanged. Chris and Daniel use The Devil Wears Prada as a lens to ask a question that goes well beyond film: has Western pop culture simply... stopped moving? The conversation covers the film's craft -- Meryl Streep's uncommonly restrained performance, why the movie works better than it has any right to, and why Daniel reads Miranda Priestly not as a villain but as a Whiplash-style manifestation of what the main character actually wants. But the real thesis is bigger: the iPhone, social media, the collapse of risk-taking across studios and streaming, and why neither audiences nor executives are really to blame -- the incentive structure is. Chris and Daniel also get into the sin-eater problem, why indie film has lost its live-wire energy, and what it actually takes to stop doom-scrolling and just make the thing.

Von der Autobahn zum Retter Hollywoods? Wir reden über A24. Das Studio, das uns HEREDITARY und SWISS ARMY MAN oder UNCUT GEMS brachte. Genau wie GREEN KNIGHT, THE LIGHTHOUSE, THE ZONE OF INTEREST oder MIDSOMMAR. Um all diese Titel soll es heute gehen. Denn sie zählen für Antje, Chris, Jasper und Schröck zu den Aushängeschildern der Firma, die sich in den letzten Jahren von der kleinen Indie-Klitsche zu einem weltweiten Player hochgearbeitet hat. Und diesen Weg wollen die Vier heute einmal nachzeichnen, erzählen, wer dafür verantwortlich ist, wie das Studio eine solche Karriere hinlegen konnte, warum es gerade Marketing-technisch bei Menschen wie Jasper und Chris so gut aufgeht und warum es dann doch auch so einige Fremdkörper im Portfolio gibt. Also so was wie zum Bespiel SLICE, ON THE ROCKS, PROBLEMISTA, INTO THE FOREST oder sogar LOVE LIES BLEEDING, der bei der heutigen Besetzung keine ungeteilte Begeisterung hervorrufen konnte. Kurz gesagt: es werden vor allem Titel gedropt, um zu zeigen wo man her kam und wohin die Reise geht, ohne einzelne Produktionen wirklich zu vertiefen. Es hat uns trotzdem sehr viel Spaß gemacht und wir hoffen, dass wir ihn auch auf Euch übertragen können. Andernfalls muss Euch Jasper noch mal auf eine Runde GREEN KNIGHT-Pen & Paper mit seinem Schwert einladen. Und das kann nicht in Eurem Sinne sein. Deswegen bleibt so gesund wie gut drauf und viel Vergnügen, Ihr SPRING BREAKER. Ciao. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This podcast episode delves into the cinematic experience of the film "Swiss Army Man," a production that has elicited profound discontent among JJ and Alec. We express our incredulity and frustration regarding the film's content, which we deem to be a substantial waste of time. The narrative follows a hopeless man stranded on a deserted island who forms a peculiar friendship with a deceased individual, leading to a series of absurd and nonsensical situations. Throughout our discussion, we explore the film's lack of meaningful intent and the questionable choices made by its creators. Ultimately, we assert that this film stands as one of the most egregious examples of cinematic folly we have encountered, warranting an unequivocal condemnation.Support us:https://www.patreon.com/whatsourverdictEmail us:hosts@whatsourverdict.comFollow us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsourverdictTwitter: @whatsourverdictInstagram: @whatsourverdictYouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC-K_E-ofs3b85BnoU4R6liAVisit us:www.whatsourverdict.com

Send us a textTurkey month is filled with surrealism isn't it?Today were talking about:What do you get when you mix Paul Dano, Daniel Radcliffe, and one very gassy corpse? That's right—Swiss Army Man (2016), the fart-fueled survival story that's equal parts heartwarming and stomach-turning.This week, we dive headfirst into the indie fever dream where flatulence becomes a flotation device, corpses give life advice, and loneliness gets very, very weird. We'll unpack the movie's deeper messages (yes, there actually are some) while laughing about the fact that someone pitched this script and A24 said, “Yeah, let's do it.”

"Cinematographer Larkin Seiple (Weapons, Everything Everywhere All at Once, This Is America) joins Bonfire Conversations to discuss his creative process, building emotion through light, and crafting the haunting “woman with the scissors” scene in Weapons. Hosted by Hamidreza Nikoofar."In this episode of Bonfire Conversations, I talk with award-winning cinematographer Larkin Seiple, the creative eye behind the horror hit "Weapons", "Everything Everywhere All at Once" (Oscar Winner for Best Picture), "Swiss Army Man", and Childish Gambino's iconic "This Is America".Larkin talks about his journey from shooting low-budget music videos to crafting some of the most inventive visuals in modern cinema. He shares the story behind his collaboration with director Zach Cregger on Weapons — one of the year's most talked-about horror films — and breaks down the now-famous “woman with the scissors” scene that left audiences breathless.We also discuss how he builds emotion through light and movement, what makes a strong director-cinematographer partnership, and his creative philosophy when balancing beauty and tension on screen.

Before Everything Everywhere All At Once, and after Swiss Army Man and the "Turn Down for What" music video, Daniel Scheinert directed a commercially unsuccessful indie film called "The Death of Dick Long." It's about two friends who get into a heap of trouble horsing around in Alabama. They drop their curiously injured friend Dick Long off at the emergency room one night, and the suspense that ensues next leads the audience down a path they'll never forget (for better or for worse). Since 2019 and the success of Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Death of Dick Long has garnered somewhat of a cult following amongst A24 fans as a dark comedy with beautiful cinematography. How will the A24 rocks crew saddle up for this one?

This week we watched the 2016 surrealist comedy drama film Swiss Army Man.

The 2008 Best Picture line up had some heavy hitters that are still on people's lists of their favorite movies of all time. So when we saw a legal thriller smack dab in the middle of the stacked season, we were skeptical. However, Tony Gilroy's tight script and directorial debut, Michael Clayton, had us on the edge of our seats from the moment Tom Wilkinson's voice over started until we sat in disbelief in the back of the cab with George Clooney.

Snobbies, we are here for pick number 2 for SUMMER CAMP MOVIES, this is Cody's pick and he chose a movies that reminded him of his summers with scouts. So Cody picked the Daniels directed, “Swiss Army Man.” We were very very unsure about this film after watching it, but the more we talked about it, the more it unfolded into something very interesting. We talked about the directors, the deeper themes, and the issue of uncomfortability.

How can we teach our audience new storytelling rules in the middle of our story? Following on from our episodes on establishing tone through action lines and through character, this is what we have been building up to: how to pull off a tonal switch… that does not throw the audience out of the film. And, in particular, how to pull that off on the page when writers don't have framing, lighting, music, editing, etc. at our disposal? With that goal in mind, Mel and Chas dissect specific moments on the pages of SHAUN OF THE DEAD, SORRY TO BOTHER YOU and SWISS ARMY MAN. While there are definite craft tools identified - rhythm of action lines, varying use of unfilmmables and metaphors, establishing language patterns - the two big takeaways are: (1) pulling off a tonal shift takes a lot of setup; and (2) when the time comes, contrast on the page is key.

Join Greg Alba and Tara Erickson as they dive into the dark and captivating world of the 2009 film adaptation, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. In this installment, the wizarding world is thrust into greater peril as Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe, Swiss Army Man, Now You See Me 2) embarks on a journey to uncover crucial secrets about the origin of the Dark Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes, Conclave, The Menu, Schindler's List). Under the wise guidance of Albus Dumbledore (Michael Gambon, Gosford Park, The King's Speech), Harry delves deep into the mysteries hidden within a mysterious potions book once owned by the enigmatic Half-Blood Prince... The film also shines a spotlight on pivotal characters such as Hermione Granger (Emma Watson, Beauty & The Beast) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint, Snatch, Get Shorty).

SPOILER WARNING! The first 45 minutes of this episode are a deep dive into the latest Severance episode, with the crew dissecting every twist, turn, and mind-breaking moment. If you're not caught up, you might want to skip ahead—or just embrace the spoilers. Outside of Severance-induced existential spirals, Mox takes a trip back to early 2000s sci-fi with Farscape, while Izzy finally wraps up Kingdom Come: Deliverance and jumps straight into Dragon Age: Inquisition, because medieval RPG suffering is apparently a lifestyle. Finally, it's time for Zea's movie pick in the WTF Did I Just Watch theme: Swiss Army Man. The crew unpacks this absurd, hilarious, and oddly emotional fever dream of a film, complete with farting corpses and unexpected life lessons. Support us on Patreon!

Happy new year! FYI we had a few tech issues that meant some chunks of audio didn't record properly this week, so apologies for the chats that might stop or start suddenly, and also the wacky audio levels. Ghost in the machine!!This week, Kate and Brodie talk about doing karaoke, should we watch I'm Not There again?, last we saw each other Brodie was going to a hen's do and Kate went to a kick-on at a house owned by someone whose dog is Top Chef's instagram friend (sure!) and to a bar called Disco Pantera, Brodie got a DM NDA for a hot Melbourne cocktail, the dog who works at the Park Hyatt is retiring this month, does Melbourne need more breakfast spots (not cafes!).We watched a lot of stuff over the break! Kate watched The Lady Vanishes, Brodie's going to the movies again to see A Different Man and Lee, Brodie saw An Unmarried Woman and tries to do the Nosferatu voice (sorry), she's confused the Lighthouse and Swiss Army Man (and also confused that movie's farting corpse with one about a propellor penis WHOOPS sorry don't @ her). They both watched Heretic (Kate's nephew's introduction to Hugh Grant was the Oompa Loompa in Wonka), The Room Next Door, Anora, All We Imagine as Light and Better Man – shockingly we have very different responses to Monkey Robbie Williams. Kate also watched The Lost Daughter finally – the audio of that bit cut out SORRY!! Brodie saw Wicked for a third time (hehe) and Kate's been visiting Somebody Somewhere and loved Bad Sisters season 2 – BL less so. Do not invite us round, Garvey sisters.Also Alsos Marisa Meltzer's newsletter, Soft PowerTina Brown's newsletter, Fresh HellMecca Cosmetica To Save Face SPF 50+Alex Goldman's Hyperfixed podcastCunk on Life on NetflixClockwatchers streaming on 7+ Hosted on Acast.

This hour, Mike and Bobby open up discussing Jake Haener being named the Saints starting QB for Sunday's game against the Commanders and the statement Haener made about taking advantage of his opportunity to lead this team and the state of backup QBs in the NFL has never felt like more of a priority for teams. Later on, the guys call up Maddy Hudak, Tulane football sideline reporter and host of "Before the Whistle" podcast, on what we can expect from Tulane as they've lost a lot of players to the portal already before their bowl game next Friday against Florida, and how they can right the ship following a serious 2-game skid losing in the AAC Championship game against Army, and the guys recap the Heisman race and some other Swiss Army Man-like players that could make some news come draft season!

Heute wird gelacht. Über Altes und Neues. Über 22 JUMP STREET, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, DAS IST DAS ENDE oder ONE CUT OF THE DEAD. Und DAS LEBEN DES BRIAN, ACE VENTURA, BRAUTALARM oder SHAUN OF THE DEAD. Aber zuerst müssen Schlogger, Antje, Etienne und Schröck erstmal klären was überhaupt so los ist mit der Komödie. Worüber lachen wir im Kino? Was hat sich für Komödien in den letzten Jahren geändert? Oder ist die Komödie nur noch ein Mischgenre? Doch sobald das alles erstmal geklärt oder zumindest einmal angerissen wurde, geht's in die Vollen. Die Crew hat jeweils ein paar Filme mitgebracht, die innerhalb der letzten 10 Jahre oder in den Jahren vor 2014 entstanden sind. Und die uns eben zum Lachen gebracht haben. Um abzugleichen, ob und was sich verändert hat. Zum Beispiel anhand von SCOTT PILGRIM GEGEN DEN REST DER WELT, ANCHORMAN - DIE LEGENDE VON RON BURGUNDY und DER WIXXXER. Oder anhand von BARB AND STAR GO TO VISTA DEL MAR und POPSTAR - NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING. Außerdem gehen wir noch mal mit THE NICE GUYS auf Tour, nutzen den Saft in MEL BROOK'S SPACEBALLS, furzen ein wenig mit SWISS ARMY MAN im Duett oder verprügeln böse Klötzchen-Buben mit THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE. Dazu werden wir noch einmal 30 ÜBER NACHT, haben nach einer Nacht mit HAROLD & KUMAR schon ein wenig HANGOVER und gehen mit MONSIEUR KILLERSTYLE auf die Jagd nach HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS. Na hoffentlich schlagen die Viecher nicht zurück. Wir hoffen allerdings auch, dass Ihr sehr viel Spaß, ein paar schöne Anregungen und noch mehr Lacher mit diesem kleinen Spezial haben werdet. in diesem Sinne: Bleibt gesund, gut drauf und vor allem humorvoll. Und falls Ihr wollt: was sind Eure Komödien-Highlights der letzten 10 Jahre? Oder aus den Jahre davor? Schreibt sie uns gerne in die Kommentare. Bis nächste Woche zu einer weiteren, regulären Ausgabe. Tschüss. And don't forget to smile. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This film combines dark comedy with deep existential questions, using the unlikely duo of Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe. Get ready to dive into a film where creativity knows no bounds.

When Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert first met as film students at Emerson College, they didn't like each other. But after a summer camp job, they embarked on a creative partnership that's lasted for over a decade, from producing the music video for “Turn Down for What,” to 2016's Swiss Army Man, and the hit 2022 film Everything Everywhere All At Once. The movie stars Michelle Yeoh as Evelyn, a woman whose family laundromat is being audited by the IRS, while she's also tasked with a mission to save the multiverse. The film's inspired repeat watching, many fan costumes, and has won a plethora of awards. As the directors adjust to the spotlight, they reflect on how their personal relationship has changed over time, from Daniel Kwan's ADHD diagnosis, to exploring their masculinity, and the intimacy of their partnership. “I always say I watch movies about marriage and I'm like, ‘Ooh, yes. This reminds me of Dan,'” said Daniel Scheinert.

Directing Duo Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, (collectively: Daniels) are known for their first feature film Swiss Army Man and DJ Snake's and Lil Jon's music video "Turn Down For What." This year, they've taken their directing to a whole different universe. Host Emily Kwong chats with the Daniels about their new film Everything Everywhere All At Once and how their indie film about laundry and taxes melds the arts with sciences.
