Binge Media

Lawlapalooza is over. We get it. So let's review a crapload of new movies and television to fill the void. Let's listen to new sounders and new drops. Let's introduce Alyx, yell at Falvey, and crank-call Garrett. Let's do this.

0:00:00-Shut up. Listen to a live sounder from last week. 

0:01:31- Law, Falvey, and Alyx (get used to it) are here. One week out from Lawlapalooza, which was an event. Sounder Wars happening on twitter. Get on it, or restart it maybe. Smash Valley got in on some guitar playing with The Kicks in the midst of all the happenings last week. Vegaspalooza 2020?! That's right, maybe. Everything is getting back to normal for this week's show, so quiet the fuck down. Where the fuck is Ammon? The question lives on. Brand new piss break sounder by Kari TM! Moreno gives the origin story behind it. PeteMC's Lawlapalooza sounder is a thing for your earholes and it is beautiful. New drop!...wait, no. Nate P. reviewed Giordano's pizza for FRUK. Go check that shit out. Moreno and Law tasted on some Britishy shit. No, not Nate P. Talking about food from his land. What's new with the site? Anything? Nothing? XBOX stuff. Shadow of the Colossus. Back to the sounder war. 

0:32:07-GOOGLE VOICE 

1:27:55-Binge Media's Jack Valley and the Horror Returns' very own Lance From Texas team up to interview David Gregory, director of Lost Souls: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of 

Dr. Moreau. Check out the other half of the interview on Wednesday when The Horror Returns podcast drops! 

2:05:15-TV ROUND UP. Spoilers about Leftovers in due time. Law jizzes all over Handmaid's Tale. Gross. He also watched Blood Drive (based on a recommendation from Chad C.) and I'm Dying Up Here. Better Call Saul....

2:20:41-Mr. 4 on 10 crashes the show with a review of Baby Driver. He also talks about his favorite movie of the year. Spontaneous GC game? Sure. He talks about his experience at Lawlapalooza. Transformers: The Lohst Knight. Jim Law serenades us. (2:59:29. That's for you, Jack). GC's love life is analyzed. 

3:04:31- TV ROUND UP CONTINUED. Back to Better Call Saul. Fargo following. Jack is keeping up with Twin Peaks. Alyx discusses House of Cards.

3:18:50-WHAT DID YOU WATCH? Alyx has nothing. Law saw Wonder Woman, Chips (fucking starving right now) and 47 Meters Down. Jack checked out Batman and Bill, It Comes at Night (new drop after the review). Wrap up Lawlapalooza show is coming soon. Ew. Bingecast Quotes on twitter! Follow them!!

You're more than welcome to yell "WE GOT IT" about Lawlapalooza 2017.  But only after listening to this.  This will put it to bed.

I grabbed PeteMC to help me co-host (and eventually TM) an all listener show where the attendees tell their Lawlapalooza stories.  It was important for Binge to give listeners their voice on a show, so I want to thank Jay Black, EmoKev, ChadCyuuuh, Marc Chevalier, PJ and Reade Wilson for carving time out on not only a Sunday but Father's Day.  Unfortunately, NateP, who was slated to appear didn't wind up making. Next time, lad.

See you at Lawlapalooza 2018!

Our live show was a huge success and we couldn't be happier.  Without a doubt the highlight for me was PeteMC doing his original Lawlapalooza sounder with TM on guitar and everyone singing along with it.  Pete recorded a "studio" version of it and we're stoked to release it now.  Bring the tissue, because you'll want to pleasure yourself.

And then you'll cry.

You're crying.

We're putting this out for free and not making it a part of Patreon or selling it or anything.  But if you wanna donate, please do by clicking on the button below!  It always helps our overhead.  If not, totally cool!

Thanks!

Released in the summer of 1988, it didn't take long for 20th Century Fox to realize that Die Hard was a hit, and almost immediately started putting together a sequel concept. However, this time their film wasn't going to be based on anything by original novelist Roderick Thorpe. Instead, Fox already had the rights to the novel 58 Minutes by Walter Wager, and in a move that will be a theme to this series, just plugged almost all of our favorite characters from the original Die Hard film and made it the sequel lazily known as Die Harder.

But Hans Gruber isn't the only piece of the 1988 film's puzzle missing from this film. There is no sly hand of original director John McTiernan at the helm. Instead, we get the upstart, high on his action game Finnish director Renny Harlin at the helm. Join Ammon, Batch, and myself as we dissect whether the sequel's outlandishly ridiculous concept is able to be overshadowed by the hard nosed action Die Hard 2: Die Harder contains. And whether the still full toupee wearing Bruce Willis brings his A game to another adventure containing John McClane being at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Download the podcast that I like to call, Christmas in June. And don't forget, we will be going down this road of one film a week until we get to the 2013 fifth film A Good Day to Die Hard.

Eventhough Jack and Kupka are recovering from Lawlapalooza 2017, they still joined Batch to discuss all things E3. Then they tossed in a little of what they played and called it a night. What do you want from us we ate and drank like assholes all weekend. I don't care that it's already Thursday, we did a lot. Listen below. Thanks.

Wow. What an unbelievable Lawlapalooza 2017.  There are almost too many memories to share over the course of the last week.  Thankfully, the live BingeCast we recorded went great and that's mostly thanks to those that showed up in the audience.  We really can't thank you guys enough for participating in this yearly event, something we've always wanted to and something that we'll continue to do if the interest is still there.

As for the live show itself, what an incredible experience to be able to host the BingeCast in front of an audience who really "gets it".  I can only imagine what the other bar patrons thought when they walked in and heard "cocksucker" being yelled out.  They got pizza, so they can shut their faces right now.

We talk about the best and worst in TV and film so far this year, a live Q&A, the Garrett Collins game is played and we also cast the Binge Media movie!

Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

YOUR hearts.

Good one.

Old friend of Binge Media, Adam Simon, has some exciting stuff brewing in the pot.  After the roller coaster ride that was Man Down that included wanting to punch every critic in the dick, Simon put his nose to the grind stone and got back to work.  We talked with him about his new partnership with the great Joe Carnahan and Frank Grillo and what the definition of hard work really means.

The action landscape was certainly missing something in 1988. Sure, the first Terminator and Lethal Weapon movies had already come out and set the ball rolling. But, the genre still needed that one extra push. Something to come out of nowhere and change cinema forever.

Enter Die Hard. Directed by John McTiernan and starring then relative unknown Bruce Willis, Die Hard rapidly ascended to the top of many peoples' 1988 Best of lists, and movie quips were no longer owned solely by Ah-nold. Instead, this Bruce guy came in and gave the art of a one-liner a true make-over by giving them, and this film as a whole, something Schwarzenegger and those around him couldn't. He gave them a naturality.

Join me, Ammon, and Batch as we start our look at the entire Die Hard series by dissecting this first history-making film. I don't think it's a secret that we all love it. But how much? What books did the film base itself on? And is this REALLY the first film of the series?

We answer all these questions and more, below. So welcome yourselves to the party by downloading!

Things we learn about on this week's show include - How Lawlapalooza saved Moe's Bar, what happens to bald Scientologists, what happens when you call our Google Voice number by accident, and where Ammon is going to podcast in three weeks. Also - movies and stuff. Tell 'em, TimeStamp Guy!

0:00:00-Do it.

0:01:53-Bingecast. OG3. Yes. Why was Booperpalooza Booperless? Jim Law explains. So what became of Law and Moreno meeting up? As soon as they started man on man fucking I was just in. LAWLAPALOOZA IS ON THE HORIZON! Moreno tells the story of the fire near Moe's Tavern. No one was hurt, thank God. Secretive plans have been made for Lawlapalooza. What is 26 hour Law? Again a secret Bingecast guest bails. Goddamnit. Movie Homework possibly getting the boot? (0:27:22, timestamped for Jim Law) We need feedback about Movie Homework! Lil Retros could be a thing. You should've seen the poll in the Binge Media Fantasy League Facebook Group. If you didn't well fuck you. Now go look.

1:55:29-TV ROUND UP. Leah Remini returned with Scientology and the Aftermath: Merchants of Fear. Hair talk. What in the fuck. Why is the Music Cast not a thing anymore? Already this segment has gone off the rails. Back on track with Fargo. Better Call Saul. Law brings up The Handmaid's Tale. The Leftovers. Moreno watched some of F is for Family (Law binged the whole season, holy fuck), Bloodline (Law binged that too, the cocksucker), and House of Cards. Ammon gives the deets on Twin Peaks. Law finally got to Legion. Ammon is doing his duty and watching The Bachelorette.

3:20:54-WHAT DID YOU WATCH? Moreno saw John Wick: Chapter 2. Law brings up his thoughts on the movie even though he watched it way back. Law checked out Trainspotting 2, Kidnap, Table 19, and A Cure for Wellness. Ammon watched Die Hard and Die Hard 2: Die Harder. He also viewed Logan Noir. Which franchises are the best overall?

That's it.
