Earth-2.net Presents...

The two books Dan and Mike discuss this week couldn't be more different. First, it's the colorful and cutesy X-Babies: Stars Reborn, then the dark and moody Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt.

Raven and Starfire swap bodies ("Switched"), Aqualad and Beast Boy reluctantly team-up ("Deep Six"), Robin betrays his friends ("Masks"), a crazy Brit attempts to teach the Teen Titans a lesson in manners ("Mad Mod"), Cyborg's new car is stolen ("Car Trouble"), and Robin joins Slade to save his friends ("Apprentice").

This week Desmond and Darryll pay tribute to the legendary late Hollywood maniac Dennis Hopper by reviewing the film that contains perhaps his greatest role: David Lynch's Blue Velvet. All this plus chitchat, voicemails, and the following audio oddities: "Montage: Blue Velvet - Blue Star" by Isabella Rossellini and Angelo Badalamenti, "In Dreams" by Roy Orbison, and "If" by Dennis Hopper. RIP Dennis Hopper. Send feedback to: [email protected], or 206.203.1213.

It's the beginning of The Summer O' Fun, as The Guys Outta Brooklyn welcome Tennessee's own Donovan Morgan Grant to pay tribute to the Action Movie Everyman, John McClane. The trio cover all four films in the series, from the trendsetting Die Hard to the befuddlingly superheroic Live Free or Die Hard. Plus, because we never stay on point when we've got a guest star, the guys get to talking about scripted "reality shows," the massive ego of Steven Seagal, and why moviemakers don't know jack about cyber-terrorists. Plus, we announce a new contest where you can win some cool books and plot the next installment of McClane's adventures! Welcome to the party, pal - and get to clicking!

In Tales of Suspense #79, Captain America's seeing assassins that no one else can, but it's just the opening gambit of The Red Skull and his two stereotypical German assistants. All this, plus Them gets a name change, and more Flashback Time.

It's Wedding Month here at Married to Movies! To celebrate, Desmond and Megan take in viewings of Bachelor Party and Father of the Bride. Then a bonus review of Sex and the City 2: The Estrogen Strikes Back by Megan and our friend Shannon. Beware though, this reception gets rowdy. Megan drops the T-word, Desmond drools over Tawny Kitaen, they both sing 1980s rock tunes, Megan shrugs inaudibly, Desmond does a Bing Crosby impression, they talk about the dirty movies they watched in French class, they both cry, and something smells funky in Denmark (and in the living room). It's a mess. Send questions, comments, and requests to: [email protected] and 206.350.0057.

An anime music video can give a good indication of what a series is about, and whether you would enjoy it. However, there are always exceptions to the rule, as Kellen explains with a brief review of 5 Centimeters Per Second.

Because you demanded it! The Sultans of Suffering present the very first audio edition of Tranquil Tirades! Join James and Damien as they discuss Murder-Set-Pieces, an exploitation blunder that both of our hosts agree is the worse movie ever made. Ever. What do Jack the Ripper and 9/11 have in common? Why is there a random kid on railroad tracks? How can you scream with a slit throat? Since when do Nazis look like Kenny Rogers? Just where, exactly, is the plot? None of these questions are answered, but Earth-2.net's resident smartasses still manage to fight the good fight and blow this cinematic abortion away with their Shotgun of Truth and Justice. Remember: They suffer, so you don't have to.

In this massive episode of Dread Media, Desmond and Darryll debate the finer points of Lovecraftian cinema, gore, and misogyny after viewing City of the Living Dead, and The Human Centipede (First Sequence) inspires Desmond and DW to write poetry and follow their dreams. Combined with Desmond's musings on Celebritygeddon and the following tunes, it's 100 minutes of gut-wrenching terror: "Father's Grave" by Melissa Auf der Maur with Glenn Danzig, "Paura Suite One (Gates of Hell) - Tears of Blood" by Penis Flytrap, "Centipede" by Strapping Young Lad, and "'Til We Die" by Slipknot. RIP Dennis Hopper, Paul Gray, etc. Send feedback to: [email protected], or 206.203.1213.

William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, and Jon Pertwee all in the same Doctor Who story? Oh yes! It's "The Three Doctors."
