Dug the Hell out of THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH (2021). Bruno Delbonne's b&w photography and the use of deep shadows is exquisite. I'll always be a sucker for German Expressionism with the moody atmosphere it provides. Didn't realize how much I needed Denzel quoting Shakespeare.

In my opinion this is one of the funniest episodes we've done all year. Tangents and topics abound with no real objective other than to hang. And then Liam goes on to make me spit take at the very last minute. I loved this.

NEW (HANGOUT) EPISODE! It's a hangout sesh! @hibachijustice.bsky.social talks BLADES OF THE GUARDIANS, @vycevictus.bsky.social hypes up new trailers, Liam does his best Chris Hansen impersonation, while Producer @odstspartan.bsky.social rattles off some oldies! creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

A chunk of this conversation has nothing to do with THE MAN FROM NOWEHERE as Dan & I react to some news. The other half is me coming to the realization how much I really enjoyed this seminal South Korean neo-noir by talking Dan into it. Another seminal blinspot crossed off the forever list.

Blind Spots@blindspotspodcast.bsky.social · 7d ago

New episode time! This week on Blind Spots, Dan is joined by returning guest Max Deering (@odstspartan.bsky.social, @a4epodcast.bsky.social) to kickstart this years Action August and cross Korean neo noir action movie The Man from Nowhere from Max's watchlist. Link: shows.acast.com/blind-spots/...

Back at it again @neonsplatter.bsky.social with something a little bit different from my usual work. I got a sneak preview of the upcoming hard-boiled noir inspired horror metroidvania, @SilverPinesGame! I hope this taste of what the devs at Wych Elm are cooking will be of interest to all.

It's another wek of me getting bullied on air as I endure the stark ravings of madmen—er I mean my gracious podcasts hosts who don't at all yell at me for my lack of Baytriotism

NEW EPISODE! BAY4E returns with Producer @odstspartan.bsky.social, Liam, and @vycevictus.bsky.social being joined by community member Spencer Schwendi for TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION! They rag on Max, and promote their newly edited Cade Yeager Trilogy! creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

Took Suus to see HOKUM last night. Both of us loved it, no surprise there. What did get me especially was how video game-coded Damien McCarthy’s third feature film was. Heavy trace elements of Silent Hill and even a bit of Alan Wake 2 are embedded in the film’s DNA.

There’s no “new” releases this weekend, but GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON’T DIE and HOKUM are finally out theatrically in my neck of the woods. If nothing else the latter is Suus’s most anticipated of the year. She loves ODDITY, so I really hope McCarthy lands the plane for her.

Who could've predicted that THE ODYSSEY would be a great film? Well...a lot of people actually (myself included). So instead of getting deep on something that has been exhausted by the online chatter, we do it the A4E way: Letting Vyce pontificate. Plus other stuff.

1/3 NEW EPISODE, YOU SACKS OF WINE! Vyce's War Journal returns! This week @aaronsps4.bsky.social joins Producer @odstspartan.bsky.social, @vycevictus.bsky.social, & Liam, so that Vyce can use THE ODYSSEY to preach about the moral rot of the human soul in war. creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

I’m back again with another mixtape @neonsplatter.bsky.social. While I had a fun time writing this, I thought it prudent to include a brief ode to Sam Neil by way of Placebo’s cover of ‘Running Up That Hill’, which I first heard in the trailer for DAYBREAKERS. He will be dearly missed.

@hibachijustice.bsky.social may not have been on A4E this weekend, but he and I still found time to continue our recurring bit of chatting about Sam Raimi and the Evil Dead franchise with the release of EVIL DEAD BURN. Doing it with The Waffle Press? Even better. Spoilers: We all dug it.

Here is how I piss off Liam in the episode: Admitting to reading the DoTM novelization at 15? ✅ Admit to wanting Transformers to be more faithful to canon at 15? ✅ Complain about Cybertron becoming a black hole at the end of the movie? ✅ That and more BAY-nannigans await.
