David — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 22:14:58 +0000

Our final Episode!

David finishes Limbo, Sean watches Safe House, Asif watches Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp! We also tangent it up into The Avengers, Scarlet Johansson’s sweet curves, Galactus, our audiences aggressive boners, and Sean’s new podcast at CHHHKK.com.

It’s been fun, everybody! We’ll be posting up more information about our two new podcasts soon. Don’t be strangers!

I’m only showing Lancelot Link because it’s the only thing that matters in history.

David — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 22:14:33 +0000

We review evidence regarding Sean’s near miss with a Devil’s Threesome, talk about David’s weekend movie marathon (including Horrible Bosses, Harold & Kumar 3D, and 50/50), Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, and some boring game Sean played.

Notes:

It was Double Trouble!
Wasted youth. POP-POP!
Horrible Bosses trailer:
Harold & Kumar:
Party Down, both seasons, on Netflix. GO.

Episode 31: The Ballad of Sean’s Dafong

David — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 17:27:01 +0000

This week, Sean sends David into a deep depression with his review of Melancholia, we recoil at the thought of Willem’s gigantic Dafong, we talk video games, Richard Cheese, and a bunch of other amazing things.

Judging by this trailer, I’ve no idea what prompted Sean to watch this movie:
Requiem for a Dream… just… no.
I am Sean’s Swollen Colon:
Yes, Willam Defoe has a huge dong, apparently.
The people of Melancholia, everybody!
Default Saint’s Row post.
Limericks aren’t hard, folks.
I don’t know. Roboblitz Demo:
Richard Cheese, everybody!
Stop what you’re doing. Listen to this Ron Swanson rap:

Episode 30: The 20′s 30′s & 40′s Edition

David — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 17:00:20 +0000

To ring in our 30th Episode, we’re joined by the gents (using that term loosely here) from the 40′s & 20′s Podcast! We (kind of) talk about Jekyll, some video games, and lots of nonsense.

Notes!

Many Disappoints:
The Rat Tail. Help us all.
Literal tail, all the way!
Some odd, rat tail infested shit here:
Don’t know why I’m bothering with this. Jekyll Trailer:
Thank you, Jesus. If this is a sampling of what 2012 will be like, we’re in for a great ride.
George Lucas’s decision center:
Just a cup o’ energy?
Nerds. Prepare to NEEEERRRRRRDDDD.

This week, we try a new format, talk about the lunacy of SOPA and PIPA, Asif talks about the battery-draining game X, David exalts The League, and Sean Seans it up. Diversions along the way include sofas and pee pee, horrible things regarding children, replacing adjectives and nouns with “Drake”, and more!

Noooootes:

The Stooges knew what the deal was:
Learn more about SOPA & PIPA
Learn even more about this awfulness.
Articulating SOPA & PIPA to scale:
I definitely meant Rick Grimes not Frank Grimes.
Sean, The Whitest Hitch:
Miyamoto: “I think that the first 30 minutes of a game is the most important. It’s the producers job to make sure it’s exciting.”
Nick Drake is the Pink Moon guy.
H.R. Pufnstuf was some horrifying shit:
Oh, dear god…

Episode 28: Sean’s Vast Expanse of Disappointment

David — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 17:00:27 +0000

We’re back! Without the dead, awkward weight of Sean, David and Asif blast back from the holidays to discuss Tucker & Dale vs Evil, Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows, a bunch more Saint’s Row: The Third, and some Serious Sam 3. As usual, we make stops along the way, which include a healthy dose of Santorum, rampant sexism, and Stephen Fry’s ass.

Notes!

Freezing it up, with our very own Sean:
A Viewer’s Guide to The Room
Tucker & Dale vs Evil trailer:
Alan Tudyk. Never forget (how awesome he is).
BEES?
Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows trailer:

Episode 26: Sean’s Vomitous Grab Bag

David — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 17:00:50 +0000

Sean’s puking his guts out, so David and Asif do a bit of a grab bag episode, David issues an ultimatum to The Walking Dead, they discuss Super 8, and Asif plays Star Wars: The Old Republic, which weirds him out a bit.

Notes!

Get it. Watch it. It’s good.
Well, The Walking Dead didn’t disappoint (HUGE SPOILER ALERT).
Here’s Ted Levine AKA Buffalo Bill… I’m not posting a link to that gif.

David — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 20:07:10 +0000

David’s sick (and not just in the head this time)! David and Asif discuss The Rum Diary, and explain to Sean why Hunter S. Thompson is awesome, get back into Batman: Arkham City, and discuss Batman’s lack of logic, as well as his amazing ultra-violence. Sean nearly weeps over Sword of Stars 2, and its inability to launch.

Notes for Show:

This week, the fellows discuss Sean’s incorrect use of words, rehash The Thing, go on to discuss Batman: Arkham City, and get once again cut off while talking about Rage.

Notes for show!

“Yonic” not “Yannick”, and we couldn’t find it because Sean’s pronouncing it wrong!
Rotten Tomatoes, at least 2 of 3 of us disagree about The Thing.
It all ends very Nell:
Batman: Arkham City gameplay trailer:

Sexism? Ok, Film Crit Hulk makes some good points.

This week, David geeks out about the Minecraft 1.8 pre-release, the fellas get into some Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and take a tragic detour into Bonerville, with a serious conversation on the word “boner”. I wish I was kidding (no, I don’t).

David — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 16:01:42 +0000

This week, chaos reigns as natural disasters ravage the East Coast! By “ravage”, we mostly mean, “annoy mildly”. We gawk in horror (and hilarity) at the wild rednecks of The Wild Wonderful Whites of West Virginia, then stupidly compare Deus Ex: Human Revolution to every other game there ever was. Finally, Sean talks about S.P.A.Z, which is apparently a lot like EVE without the espionage.
