Geek Actually Episode 70 – The Feel Good Film of the Year

New Geek Actually Cover ArtHosts: David McVay, Josh Philpott, Dave Kozicki and special guest Susan Ryan (editor of Australian Penthouse Magazine)

The Geek Actually Podcast is recorded live on Ustream with chat interaction.

This week David, Josh and Dave are joined again by Susan Ryan for our review of ‘The Road’. We want to take a moment to say rest in peace Zelda Rubinstein (Poltergeist), she passed away this week. A shout out to our friends at The Reel Junkies Podcast at weekendronin.com and The Movie Fan House Podcast at moviefanhouse.com.

News: Disney kills Miramax, the new international (age restricted) trailer for ‘Kick-Ass’, ‘Real Steel’ starts casting, The leaked Super Bowl trailer for ‘The Last Airbender’, ‘Watchmen 2’ could be a possibility, ‘The People vs. George Lucas’ trailer sparks debate, ‘Avatar’ is now officially the most successful film of all time, Gordon Gekko is back in the ‘Wall Street Money Never Sleeps’ teaser trailer, The Oscar and Razzie nominations are out and new international ‘Clash of the Titans’ trailer doesn’t spark excitement.

This Week in Television: The final ‘Dollhouse’ episode has aired and we take a look back on the show and review the last episode to see if it was all worth it.

This Week’s Feature Review: This week we look John Hillcoat’s adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s ‘The Road’ starring Viggo Mortensen. An excellent film that is at times uncomfortable to watch. This is a film that will make you remember it even if you don’t want to.

This episode carries an explicit tag due to infrequent coarse language.
