What we classify as From The Hip style episodes are shows where the conversation ends up going places we didn’t expect or plan for. When your hosts bumped into each other randomly going about our day, we pulled out the always handy mic and sat down to chat resulting in two unrelated segments based on what we’ve been watching and thinking about.
After some early discussion of our appreciation of the drive-in experience, we got to our thoughts on the Amazing Spiderman 2 and ended up talking about the broad subject of how comic book movies have evolved in recent years and the pros and cons of ‘disposable’ blockbusters. The spoilers for the movie are announced but for those who wish to fast forward to subject number two, the segment ends at 37 minutes in.
Next up, we talk about the state of the found footage subgenre and the pros and cons of its massive proliferation. This discussion was spurred by some recent watches that coincidentally shared the hand-held, verite technique: The Borderlands (2013), a story of vatican dispatched ‘miracle investigators’, The Frankenstein Theory (2013), a faux-documentary chronicling the search for a real life Frankenstein monster in the Canadian arctic, and The Sacrament (2013), Ti West’s latest which embeds documentary filmmakers into an isolated commune with a dark secret.
So its an odd mix of topics this week with the fun of casual conversation that we always enjoy when shooting from the hip. Throw in a cool new documentary Jodorowsky’s Dune, and we have an episode. Thanks to all who have checked out our latest premium on bandcamp The Return of the Living Dead Series. We announce a new contest to win Dead Set on DVD in the show for those who download it before the next episode.
