Added 2024-10-25 23:11:27 +0000 UTCThe Filmcast: After Dark is the bonus show where we talk about a variety of random topics that didn't make it into the main podcast - including your questions and what's going on in our lives.
In this episode, Dave, Jeff, and Devindra discuss Helen Mirren's discussion of the magic of GPS, the removal of Blade from the calendar, and why gaming isn't more popular in mainstream media.

2024-11-03 02:01:33 +0000 UTCI wonder if Jeff and Devindra figured out that Dave only read the video game question because he wanted yet another chance to just shit on Avatar. Dave is obsessed with the fact that seemingly everyone loves the Avatar franchise except him, and continues to want to try to argue that it's everyone else who is wrong about it, not him. Does anyone know why he has such a bug up his ass about these particular movies? Is it just being super frustrated that something he so disliked was so popular? It's fine to not like extremely popular things, I'm sure we all have examples of things like this. I just don't know why Dave can't seem to let this one go.

She loved the Lost boys and all their personalities, loved seeing Tink, and loved seeing the mermaids. After I asked if she liked it, she said, "I hope they make a part 3! I give it a , 9 out of 1o, no 9.8! out of 10!

2024-10-27 22:32:56 +0000 UTCJeff saying GPS smells like teen spirit was completely senseless, like a Scentless Apprentice. It puts you On A Plain, assists you to detect if there’s Something In The Way, like Territorial Pissing…whatever it is, Stay Away. With GPS, you’ll be able to Come As You Are, whether you’re the Big Cheese or a Negative Creep. GPS will take you to School or the Swap Meet, go see About A Girl or Turnaround and visit Floyd the Barber. Jeff you Son of a Gun, I’m sure if you met me you’d say your take was kind of Dumb and you’d tell me “You Know You’re Right!”.

2024-10-27 07:01:20 +0000 UTCUh mah guh, Devindra, your Genghis Khan scholarship interview faux pas is pure gold. Just fantastic, and way to be an empath for Dame Helen Mirren! You're absolutely correct that we all say very very dumb, ridiculous things all the time, thank god they aren't written down and published (or said to a panel of college admission deans).

2024-10-26 11:38:37 +0000 UTCI know Devindra and Jeff do no research, but I expected Dave to know that Ali as Blade was his idea. It wasn't the MCU's idea. Also it wasn't the first time Mirren said weird stuff about Cobain https://variety.com/2024/music/news/helen-mirren-kurt-cobain-gps-1236190259/

2024-10-26 06:30:31 +0000 UTCI'm not a gamer, but my explanation for why is simple: I find video games to be too addictive and time consuming so I just avoid them altogether.
