Finally! Jason Trost has made a sequel to 'The FP', my favorite post-apocalyptic, dance dance revolution to the death, action film! That's right! 'The FP2: Beats of Rage' has finally arrived in theaters and Jason is back on Geekscape to talk about fan-funding the follow up to the cult film, course correcting the project from a TV series to a film and why making things on an independent level is the best way to make art! We also talk a bit about 'Umbrella Academy', the positives and minuses of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and hint at what might be in the future for the FP universe. And we shout out Geekscapist Frank Sanders a lot! If you're an independent artist, this is a pretty solid one to listen to! Enjoy!

Pre-Order 'The FP 2: Beats of Rage'!

Blake J. Harris, the author of the Geekscape favorite narrative non-fiction book 'Console Wars', returns to the podcast to talk about his new book 'The History of the Future'! Blake has spent the last 4 years heavily researching the story Oculus founder Palmer Luckey's rise through the tech ranks from creating his own virtual reality rigs in a mobile home in Long Beach to selling Oculus to Facebook for billions of dollars only a few years later. In his new book, Blake strings together a narrative through first hand interviews and extensive research to bring you a story that is still happening in real time! We talk about the elements that led to the resurgence of VR, what the technology could really mean to Geekscapists and the world and how selling your company for billions of dollars might not be a dream come true! This is a fantastic episode so please support Blake by ordering a copy of his book (if you read 'Console Wars' you don't need much convincing) and enjoy the episode!

I first met comedian, actor and pro wrestler Jay Washington when we were both guests on Screenjunkies News. Since then, we've travelled in similar geek circles with Jay appearing recently on one of our LA Comic Con live episodes! But there's a LOT more to know about Jay... so I asked him onto the show! Now, you can also hear about Jay's tough childhood, losing both of his parents before he was 30 and how he almost died last year (honey doesn't always make things better)! We'll also talk a little about 'Avengers: End Game' and the upcoming slate of superhero movies! Enjoy!

Will there be a Punisher Season 3? With Marvel's deal with Netflix almost at an end (Jessica Jones Season 3 is still on its way) it appears unlikely. But we still have Season 2 to deal with so I sit down with Ian Kerner to talk through the 13 episodes story arch. Right off the bat, I say that Punisher Season 1 may be my favorite Marvel Netflix show... so is Season 2 another bad ass brawl-fest? What's up with Billy Russo becoming Jigsaw? Is Frank in full on Punisher mode when we meet him? Is this season as solid as the first? Where does it rank amongst the other Marvel Netflix shows? And what might be the future for these characters after Netflix? Ian and I do a deep dive through all these subjects so get ready and here is your SPOILER WARNING!

My man! After many jokes at its expense, it's finally here... an Aquaman movie! But is this the film that gets the last laugh on critics and fans? Maybe! What I do know for sure is that this is the DCEU's weirdest movie of all time! It's actually a lot to pick through so I bring Ian Kerner in to talk about the film's ins and outs and what works and what doesn't. There are tons of SPOILERS so be warned as we answer lots of questions! Does this film setup a sequel? Does it help fixed the problematic DCEU films that came before it? Were the villains too over the top? Is a 'Flashpoint' movie the best way to save the DCEU? There's lots to discuss in this special episode so enjoy!

On the heels of the blockbuster success of 'Venom', Sony is back with another entry in the Spider-Man universe... this time going in a completely different direction (or a few)! With the fully animated 'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse', movie audiences are introduced to Miles Morales, the younger Spider-Man originally introduced in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics... but very quickly he meets up with Spider-characters from various universes as the Kingpin pursues a plan to access them all or destroy them all! Is the hype about this film real? Is this the greatest Spider-Man film of all time? What works? What doesn't? What characters and creators were done justice and just how insane an idea for a movie is this? And did Sony pull it off!?! Ian and I go FULL SPOILERS on this one so only listen to it if you've already seen the film! Excelsior!

Stan "The Man" Lee is gone. The Generalisimo himself was a large part of what we do here at Geekscape. He was our friend, our inspiration and at times our collaborator. I had wanted to do a Geekscape State of the Union podcast with you all for a while now if only to get all of my thoughts to you and let you know how I'm feeling and to gauge the pulse of what it is that we do around here. But now, 10 years after we met Stan and he renamed us Dickscape, I found it a fitting time to bring you into my thoughts, express my gratitude for all of you and give you some stories and thoughts on Stan Lee himself and how important he was to all of us. Excelsior and Geekscape Forever!

'The Monster Squad' is a definitive 80s Cult Movie. It went almost completely ignored upon its release and only decades later has it amassed the audience it always deserved. And what took so long? With a plot that is basically The Little Rascals versus the classic Universal Monsters, everyone who sees the movie falls in love with it! Well, on this LA Comic Con panel, we've got two of the original Squad members, Andre Gower and Ryan Lambert, talking about their experiences making the original film. In addition, filmmaker Henry McComas joins us to talk about 'Wolfman's Got Nards', the Monster Squad retrospective culture documentary that he and Andre are ready to unleash upon the world!
