The Screening Room

In this long time coming episode, host Rutvig introduces a series of interviews recorded (by Rutvig and Patrick O' Leary) back in 2017 at London Super Comic Con with comics artists and writers. 

They speak to comics creators Guillermo Ortego, returning guest (even though technically, this was his first time on The Screening Room) James Lundy, and visiting Greek creators Nikos Koutsis, Stefanos Papadatos and Tony Tzanoukakis.  And finally, we speak with none other than the legendary writer Brian Michael Bendis himself.

The subject matters discussed, show the age of the recordings but hopefully they prove to be interesting nonetheless.  As they say, better late than never!

Enjoy.

In this week's episode, Rutvig catches up with actor Keith De'Winter.  They reminisce about the Star Wars Episode 8 The Last Jedi (aka Space Bear) wrap party as well as talk about Keith's varied acting career, where Keith recalls landing the job on The Force Awakens and his first day going in for fittings.   

In this special episode, host Rutvig vaid pays tribute to the late actor Irrfan Khan.  He talks about Khan's work in The Darjeeling Limited, The Amazing Spider-Man, Jurassic World and The Life of Pi.

In this belated Top 5 of 2019 episode, host Rutvig Vaid waxes lyrical about his fave films of last year, as well as introducing a couple more lists including his 'Don't Care List'!  Listen as he moans about stuff, gushes about stuff and generally warbles on as per usual.  Films talked about include Terminator: Dark Fate, Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, Shazam, Booksmart, Stuber, Jay & Silent Bob Reboot and many more.  

This ep may be a couple of months late, but it's worth the wait...

...though probably not.

After another long hiatus, Rutvig is back with another episode of The Screening Room.

Frith (Director), Producer extraordinaire Robert Watts (the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones Trilogies) and Michael Palin (Monty Python) to name but a few.
