FBSD Episode 44: On The Lot 112

Posted by Tony on August 10th, 2007

Wow… America got that one all wrong. Zach was eliminated this week.  I am totally shocked.
This has opened the competition though, and it should be interesting to see how it plays out.
The log line, chosen by a viewer, that is the theme of this week’s films is: “A man wakes up, finds himself in a dress and can’t remember what happened the night before.”

Adam Stein - Army Guy
Jason Epperson - Oh, Boy.
Sam Friedlander - Dress For Success
Will Bigham- The Yes Men

FBSD Episode 43: On The Lot 111

Posted by Tony on August 2nd, 2007

This week the theme is Road movies.   For this week, each director had to feature a car in his film.

The lowest number of votes this week went to, as predicted (even a broken clock is right twice a day), Andrew Hunt.

The highest number of votes went to Jason.  For his reward, he acquired the services of Jerry O’Connell.

Adam Stein - Driving Under The Influence
Jason Epperson - The Move
Sam Friedlander - Backseat Driving Test
Will Bigham - Road Rage 101
Zach Lipovsky - Bonus Feature Two

        FBSD Episode SE04: Really Big Things and Smallville

        Posted by Tony on June 20th, 2007

        In this episode, special guest Paul Maki joins me to chat about his serial fiction podcast Really Big Things.

        The audio is a bit dicey and this was the first time I recorded via Skype.  It’s not horrible, but there are a few noticeable  points where Skype cut out.  I left them as they were, as it would have been a royal pain to do even more editing for only a second or two of inconvenience.

        More detailed notes to follow.

        FBSD Episode 037: STAR WARS and Shaft

        Posted by Tony on May 26th, 2007

        You read that title right.

        Lazy show notes for now. (Will get this updated later this morning (or afternoon) (or weekend).

        Be sure to listen for Stealth Contest information.

        And this will make sense if you listen all the way to the end, we decided on Apocalypto.

        FBSD Episode SE3: Tony’s Losing It Episode 000

        Posted by Tony on May 20th, 2007

        Hey everyone,

        It’s been a busy week for both of us, so we are running just a bit behind. To make up for that, I wanted to present you with what I’ve been working on that is keeping me so busy this week.

        For more information check out www.tonyslosingit.com

        We will be back next week with something to make up for our absence.

        Well, I’m not 100% sure what caused it, but it was something in the way I entered the ID3 tag…. like you even care.

        Anyway, it’s fixed!

        In this week’s episode we talk about the phenomenal numbers that Spiderman 3 had over the weekend and contrast that with the dismal showing for the rest of the films in theaters. (www.boxofficemojo.com)

        Tony gives a brief review of Spiderman 3 that doesn’t include spoilers, but refers you to the GeekLabel podcast if you want to hear Spiderman 3 picked apart (then roasted over an open flame) .

        We then review Lucky You, spoiler free… at least until we take a break.

        Promo: Christiana Ellis’ Nina Kimberly the Merciless

        We dig into the deep analysis of Lucky You.

        Generally, we aren’t giving this film high marks. We were hoping for something a bit…. more. It’s really hard to describe it beyond that. It wasn’t a bad film, it just floundered.

        On the other hand, Tony does suggest and support an idea that this film could quite possibly be one of the most perfect date movies made.
