Show notes

This week,Zach gets all emo with James Dean as he explores the world of suburban Los Angeles in 1955's Rebel Without A Cause.

Rebel Without a Cause [Blu-ray]

Rebel Without a Cause is a 1955 American drama film about emotionally confused suburban, middle-class teenagers. Directed by Nicholas Ray, it offered both social commentary and an alternative to previous films depicting delinquents in urban slum environments.Over the years, the film has achieved landmark status for the acting of cultural icon James Dean, fresh from his Academy Award nominated role in East of Eden and who died before the film's release, in his most celebrated role. This was the only film during Dean's lifetime in which he received top billing. In 1990, Rebel Without a Cause was added to the preserved films of the United States Library of Congress's National Film Registry as being deemed "culturally, historically, and aesthetically significant".

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week
Disney Owned Property Battle
Just received a great email from Eddie in Pittsburgh who asked a great question.

I’ve been wondering something for quite a some time, and I thought your expertise could help me out. Who would win in a fight? Spider-man or Darth Vader? I really can’t figure this one out. I’ll leave any details to you fellas.

Now, I have my answer, but instead of letting us tell Eddie how the fight would fall out, we’re letting you get in on this battle of Disney owned properties.

Top Five Webcomics Feb 20, 2014

Show notes

Webcomics

Top Five is a show where the hosts categorize, rank, compare, and stratify everything… from cars to gadgets to people and movies. From stuff that is hot, and things that are not nearly as interesting - it's Top Five.

It may be for a quick laugh, or an extended story, but the comic world totally changed when comics went digital, spawning a wealth of great online comics. This week, we take a look at our top five webcomics.

Zach on Toys - Toy Fair Feb 20, 2014

Show notes

There's no Zach on Film this week, and we really feel bad about it. And to show that we are always working on things behind the scenes, this week, Zach sits down to talk Back to the Future Nikes, Borderlands2 Loot Chest, and more!

Keep in mind this is a pilot episode that doesn't have all the polish and shine that a full episode would have. It is simple done to present an idea or a concept for us to build upon in the future.
