RC #37: The IMAX Experience…?

Posted by Erik On June - 22 - 2009

RandomChatterThis week we start out with some nice, peaceful good news, such as which television series are getting renewed. Dollhouse will be back! Woohoo! (Note: Terminator: TSCC has been canceled, but we recorded this weeks ago, before it was announced.)

Then we get into some... well, not-so-peaceful discussion. See, they're releasing more and more films in IMAX, and there seem to be more IMAX theaters popping up everywhere, especially in the AMC and Regal theater chains. However, the screens aren't any bigger than normal screens.

Erik takes one side of the debate. Ned takes the other. The gloves come off, and Andrew has to drop by to settle the argument. Check it out!

LC #28: Man of Luck

Posted by Erik On June - 18 - 2009

lostchatter_itunesJack's the "man of science." Locke's the "man of faith." This week, we take a look at everyone's favorite "man of luck," Hurley.

Several characters on the show have talked about "making your own fate" and "choosing your destiny." Is Hurley able to take it so far as to actually affect the world around him through his subconscious thoughts? For all the talk about fate, we wonder if Hurley may be one of the most pivotal characters in the series.

MC #55: Owning the Weather with Robert Greene

Posted by Andrew On June - 9 - 2009

MovieChatterIt turns out there's an inconvenient truth that Al Gore hasn't figured out: that weather modification may be possible, and the key to solving global warming.  But is it the miracle we need, or just wishful thinking?  That's the subject of a yet-to-be-released documentary called Owning the Weather, which Andrew and Morgan share their general thoughts on.  Andrew then calls up director Robert Greene to talk about his experience making the film, weather modification, and why Liv Tyler's boyfriend sucks, among other things.

Click below the break for a trailer and info on the film's release.
