9ES243: A Gallon Of PCP

Posted In: 9ES, Podcast, Podcasting
The Montreal podcast that has so much to say about so little is back once again with all kinds of fun talk about some talented celebrities who have passed away recently like Trevor Moore and Michael K. Williams!
That’s a bummer, don’t worry, things pick up when we transition over to a casual discussion about opioids and the lack of justice for those who have perpetrated one of the great crimes of our lifetimes!
Things brighten up when we talk about Todd Phillips’ 2019 movie “Joker”.
*checks notes*
There’s got to be something uplifting in this episode. Let’s see here.
I guess the work of Alexandra Elbakyan releasing scientific knowledge free of charge to the scientific community at large is a feel good story, right? Although that does spiral into the current state of privatized and monetized research which is what lands us in that opioid talk in the first place.
Oh, here it is, Keith watched a Slap Fight pay-per-view! That’s fun and… he felt mildly concerned for the health and well-being of the competitors as they slapped the shit out of each other in the conference room of a low-rate hotel…
If all of this sounds fun and interesting I strongly recommend checking us out on Patreon where we get into why The McElroy brothers are less fun than they used to be and how much Weezer sucks now.
Enjoy the show(s)?

9ES167: Thanos Can Fix Hollywood

As long as he kills the half who pee on unwilling people and not by making another movie.

Think about what a nice trade that would be.  The end of Infinity War would forever remain a mystery, unless you wanted to read the books or more likely don’t care, and in exchange the bad half of Hollywood is gone.  Not too shabby.  Unless of course being a sexual predator is somehow linked to the quality of your artistic output.  I doubt it, but I guess I only ever listened to like 3 of the trapped in the closet jibberjabbers.

There’s a temptation there, treading into the genius->madness Rubicon, where you might imagine that the tides of suffering vomited by the villains of the world has a net positive impact.  A unified Europe without Hitler?  Somewhere Over The Rainbow without barbiturates and amphetamines?

Yeah fuck that.  All that is nonsense.  We never see what could have been.

Movie Review: Suicide Squad

My lovely and beautiful wife took me out to the movies tonight! This is a pretty rare thing for us ever since the lil guy came along, and more so that we get to see the hot new movie on it’s opening weekend, so I wanted to write a little bit about it.

Suicide Squad!

This movie got ripped by the critics who saw it earlier this week, many of whom hated it outright. I saw people calling it derivative and boring.

I don’t think that was really fair. The movie was fun, pretty slick looking, and mostly made sense (in the world they had created) from start to finish. One critic said the movie was “trying to outdo Deadpool while hampered with a PG-13 rating”, and that is actually pretty fair, but all in all Suicide Squad is a popcorn summer shoot-em-up with a few shiny moments.

The trailers don’t lie, and Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn is the scene-chewing best part of the movie. She’s got all the coolest lines, and is gonna make a lot of people into huge Harley fans. I’ll admit I had some reservations about what they had done to my (Batman:TAS) Harley Quinn, but Robbie won me over and is really the shining gem of this movie.

Will Smith’s Deadshot is better than I thought he’d be as well, getting to be both the moral center and bad-ass of the team. He’s a big star, and he’s given a few scene’s to act, as well.

Jared Leto’s Joker is… not bad.

He’s okay. I know there was a lot of hype there, and he doesn’t disappoint, but… I dunno, he didn’t shock and amaze like Heath Ledger did as the previous Clown Prince of Crime.

My fav member of the Squad from the comics, Captain Boomerang, didn’t get enough screen time, but when he was on, he was doing all the little things right. Good in a fight but with a healthy dose of cowardice. No real complaints there.

Yeah, so, Suicide Squad. A little bit Guardians of the Galaxy, and little bit Deadpool, a little bit of the stain of Batman v Superman to drag it down, but still it managed to make for a fun night out. And be sure to check out the mid-credits scene with Nick Fury. (You’ll get it when you see it.)

Loot Crate Double Feature! Heroes and Villains 2 – Perspicacious Geek

by on September 1, 2015 at 8:03 am
Posted In: Blogs, Homepage, Keith, Perspicacious Geek

Holy crap Batman! (Slightly relevant reference) I am going to be looking at two Loot Crates this week! Why? Well, because when I was gone they sent me the July Loot Crate (Heroes 2) and it got returned to sender, I subsequently got both July and August Loot Crates last week! So hurrah for me! The Batman reference up there is because both Heroes 2 and Villains 2 had Batman stuff. So there’s that.LootDoubleBox

Fortunately for me, both of these boxes were “big item” crates so that actual volume of stuff is on the small side (with less items but higher quality, something I’m always a fan of, more figures and collectibles, less stickers and whatnot). Let’s do this. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
