Binge Media

Here we are again, Bingers. Time to tackle a franchise for your listening pleasure. Though this time, we will be tackling two at a time. Sort of.

Let me explain where I’m coming from here. For our special lead in to Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice, I decided to look at the two characters surrounding it by asking two other guys from the site, who also happen to be huge fans of their respected characters, to come on the Aftertaste and discuss them both at length.

First up, Batman. And doing the honors of dissecting this character with me is the New England Patriots loving, Pulp Fiction addict (cue echo) JACK VALLEY. Listen in as Jackie Boy and I go over each portion of Bats in his media conquering pedestal.

Some of the questions we go over here:

How did Jack become such a big fan of the character?

Just how big WAS Nicholson’s contract to appear in Batman, and why was he paid for movies he wasn’t even in?

How much does the Halle Berry starring Catwoman fit into the DC universe, if at all?

What does Batman ’66 have in common with Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises?

What is Jack’s LEAST favorite characterization of Bruce Wayne?

What is the biggest missed opportunity of Tim Burton’s two directed Batman films?

Who else was paid to NOT be in Batman Returns?

What does Batman & Robin have in common with The Dark Knight Rises?

Is the relationship between Wayne and Gordon in the Nolan films similar to how it was in the comics?

How’s Nolan’s characterization of Scarecrow?

What is the’George Bush Theory’ that surrounds The Dark Knight?

How do we feel Batman Vs Superman Dawn of Justice looks?

So click that little download button on the bottom of this page and get ready for a bat of a good time. Gross.

That’s all there is folks, we’re not gonna bullshit you here. Batch was off jerkin’ it in San Diego so Jack Valley and Kupka said “Oh well”, and dove head first into Tom Clancy’s The Division. They streamed it, talked about the little they did since the last show, and even discussed some casting for a movie version of Bioshock Infinite per a listeners request. Batch did decide to send us a little message on his early thoughts of The Division which you can catch at the end of the show. Go listen or watch now!

I almost forgot! Don’t forget to sign up for this year’s Fantasy Movie League competition.

After a disastrous and drunk (successful) recording of this week’s BingeCast, I’m still barely able to function this morning after a nasty hangover and an allergy reaction that had me tripping balls on Benadryl for most of the day.  That said, I found time to go over this year’s Binge Movie Fantasy League with The Architect as he now demands to be called (he never demanded it), one James E. Supka.  This idea has been hot boxing in Supka’s head for the past couple of years and after a couple of successful seasons of the Hottie Fantasy League with increasing participants, we’re finally rolling it out this year.  And we couldn’t any more excited.  We’ve got more participants than last year, more opportunities at scoring, which all leads to more shit talking.  I do have to say that I’m disappointed that there will be no more titty points this year, and it hurts me personally as the chief songwriter of “Titty Points” (where the only lyrics “titty points” are chanted over and over).  All that being said, take a listen at the breakdown of rules and points and comment here or the BingeMedia FB group with your issues or suggestions.  Supka will breakdown in detail the rules and point structure in a separate article soon to be published today.

0:00:00-New sounder to kick this shit into gear

0:01:56-Moreno and Ammon…where the fuck is Law? He’s being replaced with “He Who Hates Everything.” There’s talk of drinks, Batman v. Superman, and other bullshit, like Spider-Man fucking 3. Another infamous infomercial gets dropped too.

0:20:06-TV ROUND UP. Ammon drops the Juice with People Vs. OJ, which Garrett latches onto as well. Fuller House? What? Ammon checked out Love on Netflix, and Netflix talk continues with House of Cards. Collins brings up Horace and Pete. Leftover buddies recap their work on Season 2. Garrett and Moreno swap notes on Vinyl. Move onto Better Call Saul and 11.22.63. Dark Tower casting discussion. Ammon regrets nothing as he discusses The Bachelor.

1:05:11-Ghostbuster Trailer and Oscar discussion.

1:19:54-SUP(DAWG)KA VOICE

2:03:41-WHAT DID YOU WATCH? Moreno has nothing. Goddamnit. Ammon did a favor for someone and watched Forsaken. Garrett gave Gerard Butler his money twice with Gods of Egypt and London has Fallen. He then heads into revisit territory with Major League, the Nolan Batman films, True Romance, Inception, and Short Term 12.

3:05:20-Ending this shit with FUCK, MARRY, KILL.

Binge Media’s TV Round-Up returns as Luke and Jack are back with commentary for Season 2, Episode 3 of Better Call Saul, “Amarillo”. Moreno wanted to join in but was apparently trapped in a snowstorm, so if we don’t hear from him before next week’s BingeCast, somebody call the police.

Listen in as we discuss the episode’s important plot points, such as Jimmy’s awesome cowboy getup. We also attempt to answer one of the show’s most important questions: How in the fuck does a veterinarian become the go-to guy for dirty work? And after 477 episodes of the BingeCast, there’s finally a She Devil reference.  All this and more in this week’s Better Call Saul commentary. Enjoy.

How do you follow a 5 hour podcast from last week? By reviewing said podcast and almost doing it again. Other than discussion of banning Luke Norris for life, Garrett’s mysterious infomercial we found on the net, and both, the best and worst call ins of all time on the same show, we also have our own shit to talk about.

What Did You watch is a whole bunch of revisits such as GOODFELLAS, COLLATERAL, KINDERGARTEN COP and the NAKED GUN movies.

Movie Homework is a look back on the criminally overlooked NARC.

Google Voice is stupid as usual.

TV Round-Up is epic with talk of Vinyl, Horace and Pete, The Expanse, Man Seeking Woman, 11/22/63, The People vs. OJ Simpson, Better Call Saul, and some more I forgot about.

We end the show with a spur of the moment game of Marry/Fuck/Kill and things get really weird. Stupid sexy Guttenburg.

A lot of times, I like to start intros to podcasts in the vein of, ‘this took so much work to put together,’ acting like what I do around here is actual work. Truth is, a lot of times, it is a collaborative effort. I love to give Jason Morris a hard time, but the man has a real creative vision and a lot of the shows we do together are a synergy of creative artistry.

In regards to the creation of this particular show about the documentary entitled The Resurrection of Jake The Snake, I credit one man. That man being Batch (cue Batch Bomb). After watching this powerful documentary, Batch got in touch and said he would like to talk about it on my show with me. After wiping tears from my eyes on my viewing of the documentary, I more than full heartedly agreed.

During this podcast, Batch and I go over our own childhood memories of watching Jake The Snake in action. As well as what watching his fall from grace did to our hearts. We also pepper in a little DDP Yoga talk, which I have just purchased for my own self. And then, it is on to the movie.

The Resurrection of Jake The Snake is such a roller coaster of emotions, that we try our best to not cover all of them as much as just give you all an overview of what the movie shows. But the most beautiful thing about it is, you do not have to be a wrestling fan to enjoy it.

For more general information about The Resurrection of Jake The Snake, you can visit its website here. You can stream it on itunes here. And for more information on DDP Yoga, go here. I want to send out a million thanks Batch’s way for coming up with this inspiring Binge Movie Aftertaste topic.

Because you just didn’t hear enough from these guys during this week’s 14-hour BingeCast, Luke and Jack are back for another edition of TV Round-Up to discuss Season 2, Episode 2 of Better Call Saul, “Cobbler”. Only this time, they’re joined by Moreno, who has taken it upon himself to make this a three way. Okay, things just got weird. But go ahead and listen to the show anyway. And we promise you….this isn’t a five hour show. Enjoy.
