The Weekly Stuff #91 - 2014 Year-to-date Review


After an unfortunate two-week
break, we have returned with a jam-packed episode, in which we cover a wide
array of topics, from sharing thoughts on Doug Liman’s Edge of Tomorrow, to discussing the sorry state of PC gaming
platform Steam, to breaking down various bits of movie, gaming, and TV news – Doctor Who returns August 23rd!
– and a whole lot more. But the central topic is a look back at the year 2014
has been so far in the realms of film, gaming, and television, with Sean and
myself offering three recommendations apiece for the best new games, movies,
and shows of the year to date. Enjoy!

The Weekly Stuff #90 - Destiny First-Look Alpha Reactions & E3 Wrap-up

Having broken down all the biggest E3 news and announcements last week, we return this week for some final E3 wrap-up, including our reactions to the first-look Alpha for Bungie's new game Destiny. Also discussed are Warner Bros’ supposed
 plans for an ambitious (and foolhardy) DC cinematic universe, and some 
final thoughts on Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs. Enjoy!

The Weekly Stuff #88 - X-Men, Watch Dogs, Mario Kart 8, & More


In what might be the busiest episode we have ever recorded, Sean and Jonathan catch up on two
weeks worth of news – including the saga of Marvel’s Ant-Man following the departure of director Edgar Wright, and the
announcement of the hilariously awful title for Warner Bros’ Batman/Superman movie – in addition to four major discussion topics: A preview of next week’s E3 conference, a quick review of Mario
Kart 8for the Wii U, a
longer review of Watch Dogs for the
PlayStation 4, and an in-depth discussion of Brian Singer’s X-Men:
Days of Future Past. Enjoy!

The Weekly Stuff #87 - Reviewing "Persona 3 The Movie: #1 - Spring of Birth"

As listeners probably know by now, our favorite video game of all time here at the Weekly Stuff is Persona 3, and with the first installment in the game's multi-part film adaptation having just hit home video, we wanted to offer an in-depth review of the movie. "Spring of Birth" is definitely a different beast than either of us expected, and it makes for an interesting, lively discussion. Also covered is the film's Blu-Ray release packaging and extras, so those on the fence about buying can have all the essential information. Enjoy!

The Weekly Stuff #86 - Reviewing Gareth Edwards' "Godzilla" (2014)

With Gareth Edwards' "Godzilla" reboot film now in theatres and doing major box office numbers, we offer an in-depth discussion of the film, with hosts Sean - a lifelong Godzilla fan - and Jonathan - mostly familiar with the original 1954 'Gojira' - bringing two very different perspectives to the table. Recent Halo news and some other video game discussion rounds out the episode. Enjoy!
