Something Vaguely Reasonable|S3E19: June 30th Show Episode
On the show this week:-Something Vaguely EntertainingFirst, let's start out with an apology for the infrequent show updates. Life has this bad habit of getting in the way of living, so getting shows recorded has been a bit difficult recently. Sorry about that.We start out by speculating about bear fat as a hair gel and we pounce on Sanford's sex scandal before we get into our review of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Given how bad the critical reaction has been, this continues our summer of 'Did You Watch the Same Movie I Did?' Listen as Largo and The Boy answer criticisms of racism and poor storytelling (at least in the context of an action movie.) be warned, spoilers abound. This also gives us an overview of movies that have been reviewed better, Boba Fett Syndrome, off topic video game reviews, Cialis: The Video Game, and DevastateHer, the combining, transforming sex toy.We then move on to the $3000.00 wonder that was The Stink of Flesh (and by wonder, we mean that we wonder why they bothered.) Listen and marvel at the low budget, low concept, polyamorous/necrophiliac zombie apocalypse experience (trust us, we make it sound like a far more interesting movie than it is.) Spoilers (as if you'll care) abound here as well.We close out the movie portion of SVE by giving the baselines for out patented Tentacle Rating System and taking a look at the trailer for Daybreakers (and pointing out that General Mills is no longer making the Monster Cereals.)Sanguinist then gives us a quick and dirty look at Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition, which he states is a pretty good 'gateway' game to try and bring in some (desperately needed) new blood into the hobby. We also puzzle over the concept of Tournament Play, the inherent problems with anti-piracy software/practices, and the silliness of ransoming the new version of Chill for $35,000.00. We also speculate about setting up a suggestion pile/donation button to get bad movies for us to watch (donations shall be spent on alcohol to make the movies watchable.) And we close out with Zael's answer to our bacon question from a few shows ago.Email us at: svreasonable@gmail.com. Music used with permission by DJ Lodger.
