Minisode 005: Blair Witch

Aaron is joined by Reed Lackey from The Fear of God Podcast to discuss this surprise sequel to one of the most iconic horror films of all time.

Minisode 003: Negative Film Criticism and Fandom Rage with Andrew Dyce

Special guest Andrew Dyce, editor at Screenrant.com and co-host of the Total Geekall podcast, joins us to discuss a concerning trend of negative groupthink toward films and angry fandom. Using films such as Batman v Superman, Avatar, and Ghostbusters, we try to figure out why moviegoers are so enamored with hating films instead of loving them.

Minisode 002: The Shallows

We go deep into The Shallows to examine whether this is just another shark attack movie or something with a little more heart. Part horror, part drama, all awesome is our consensus for this gorgeously shot survivor movie.

Minisode 001: The Conjuring 2

Aaron is joined by guest Scott Kelly to discuss James Wan’s latest horror masterpiece. Is The Conjuring 2 one of the rare sequels that is better than the original? It’s certainly worthy of consideration. The hosts dig into themes of skepticism, faith, and love, as well as (of course) talk about how scary the film is.

Minisode 000: Summer Movie Challenge (2016)

This year we’ve decided to join in the popular 2016 Summer Movie Challenge. We’ll be competing both individually and as a team against Richard and David, the hosts of Popcorn Theology!

2016 Summer Movie Challenge Rules

The rules for the game come from TimeTravelReview’s Summer Movie Pool:

The object is to pick the films that you think will be the top-ten grossing films of the summer, in order of box-office performance. As I’ve said, that means only films released from May 1st 2016 to the Labor Day weekend, counting only the money those films make domestically (US and Canada) in that period. In other words films from March or April might still be making money after May 1st, but they don’t count; films released from May on could start racking up foreign B.O., but that doesn’t count; films released from May on could still be making money into September, but that doesn’t count either. Box Office numbers are generally available late Monday or Tuesday after the weekend closes. For the last seven or so years, I have been using box office numbers from Yahoo Box Office which gets their numbers in turn from Box Office Mojo. So what you will be doing is figuring out what 10 films will make the most money, and putting them in order of what you think they will gross at the box office. BUT, in addition to your top 10, you get to pick 3 “Dark Horses”- films you think *might* make it, but that you are not confident enough about to put into the top 10 proper.

2016 Summer Movie Challenge Scoring:

To see how we are doing check out the official SMC Scoreboard:

  • Getting number 1 or number 10 dead-on gets you 13 points (each).

The rest of the scoring goes like this:

  • 10 points for numbers 2-9 dead-on
  • 7 points if your pick was only one spot away from where it ended up
  • 5 points if it was two spots away
  • 3 points if your pick is anywhere in the Top 10
  • 1 point for each dark horse that makes it into the Top 10

The scoring is tabulated so that you get the SINGLE HIGHEST point value for each pick- that is, if you get number ten right, you don’t get 13+3, you only get 13.
