at1UP: 07/27/2010

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies563 days ago

After a short hiatus due to Mike’s Vacation and Comic-con craziness, the at1UP group is back. First up this week  is some discussion about the $150 Kinect pricing. No one is too interested in the forthcoming motion control solutions, and the $150 price point makes it even harder for them to get excited. The bulk of time is spent on comic-related topics this week, and rightfully so with Comic-con having just finished. Travis also pops in for a bit and talks about his initial impressions of the StarCraft 2 single player campaign. Jade and Alan...

Here it is, our first non-traditional, topic-specific podcast. This one is all about Inception. We spend 50+ minutes talking about why we loved Christopher Nolan’s latest.

/Filmcast Ep. 109 – Inception

by Jon Cole in Movies569 days ago

This week’s episode of the /Filmcast is all Inception, all the time.  Before things start, Dave takes a quick moment to plug The Tobolowsky Files, which recently got aired on Seattle Public Radio.  If you don’t listen to Dave’s other major podcasting venture, it’s definitely worth trying out. The first half of the show is dedicated to the reviews from the regular /Filmcast crew, starting things off with Devindra.  As a soundtrack-loving podcast, he quickly comments on the great score by Hans Zimmer, which he says never...

The Totally Rad Show – Episode 174:Nolanverse

by Ross Adams in Games, Movies569 days ago

The TRS crew has highly anticipated Christopher Nolan‘s newest flick, Inception. Going in with high expectations they have varied feelings on the film. Alex  starts off, he really enjoyed the movie and thought it was great fun but it wasn’t quite the gamechanger he had been led to expect it would be. Jeff adored the film, citing the emotional story as something that he especially enjoyed. Dan also loved the film but seems to share Alex’s feelings that it wasn’t quite the epic masterpiece it was being built up to be. The...

The Geekbox: Episode 75

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies, TV569 days ago

It’s a straightforward episode this week with just a few topics covered– most of which has Fitch upset about something. Burn Notice talk leads into a discussion about the Simpsons with Higgins arguing the quality of the whole series while Fitch outlines his approach to milked franchises and why singular good episodes can’t even be acknowledged. The group also touches on Final Fantasy XIII and IV,with Higgins calling the beta of the latter almost unplayable due to its archaic MMO mechanics. The last 30 minutes is nothing but Inception...

CastMedium Podcast 044 – 07.20.10

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies, Tech571 days ago

It’s another glorious episode of the podcast– and it’s a good one. DeathSpank’s debut and Limbo’s kick-off of the XBLA Summer of Arcade are up first. If you aren’t up on Limbo, as always, the Giant Bomb Quick Look is a good primer. In tech, we spend a good amount of time on the state of iPhone 4 after the mini ‘Jobsnote‘ last Friday. Spoiler: None of us are too happy. We are happy about the overview of Windows Phone 7 that hit the tech sites recently though, and Erik is in a holding pattern for its...

Filmspotting #308: Inception / The Apartment / Top 5 Dream Sequences

by Jon Cole in Movies571 days ago

After a slightly laborious lead-in from Matty, Adam starts off this week’s review of Inception with a couple of simple thoughts, namely that this film succeeded on many levels and definitely ranks among his best movies of the year so far.  He goes on to say that the movies was so immersive and the mechanics were so well established that he found himself plunged into the film as though it was his own dream, ironically enough.  Matty steers the conversation from there, praising the visuals as the most stylistically complete that Nolan has...
