The Geek Actually Podcast is recorded live on Ustream with chat interaction.
This week David, Josh and Dave check our sanity at the door and review Martin Scorsese’s new film ‘Shutter Island’. A shout out to our friends at The Reel Junkies Podcast at weekendronin.com and The Movie Fan House Podcast at moviefanhouse.com.
This Week in Television: Dave K. introduces us all to ‘Archer’, a new animated series about spies that is wrong in every way. It is a fantastically funny show that needs to be seen by everyone. A reboot/continuation of ‘La Femme Nikita’ is on the way to the small screen.
Film News: John Hughes to get a special tribute at the Oscars, strong rumours that the ‘Spider-Man’ reboot will be based on the Ultimate series, the trailer for Woody Harrelson’s new film ‘Defendor’, Morgan Spurlock and Joss Whedon team up for new Comic-Con doco, ‘The Three Musketeers’ to be rebooted…again, the new ‘Toy Story 3’ gives us a little more story, Kevin Costner returns to the director’s chair, the international ‘Wall Street : Money Never Sleeps’ is an improvement but we still don’t really want to see the film and finally, Martin Scorese is going to make a kids film…in 3D!
This Week’s Feature Review: This week we review Martin Scorsese’s new thriller ‘Shutter Island’. After being delayed by 4 months, the film finally hits the screens. Was it worth the wait? A good film that has flaws. It may not be remembered as a Scorsese masterpiece but well worth a watch.
This episode carries an explicit tag due to infrequent coarse language.
