Unfriended- an emerging genre?

Unfriended- an emerging genre?

So hello my best boys and girls! So when I first saw Unfriended one day at my house, I didn’t really like it that much. I thought it was just one and done but no! Turns out they listened to the criticism, made improvements and made it semi-decent film! Then they made Missing and it was great! However, how will other genres fare Unfriended-fyed (meaning it’s all on the computer screen)? You COULD speculate it and it would keep you up all night and you’d either fall asleep during a job interview or you’d look horrible to ask that cute blonde in your class on a date…OR you could listen to my podcast and find out!

So I noticed that the in Spider-Man, the Green Goblin displays signs of a mental disorder that is VERY unique. Now, I am qualified to talk about this, since this is in my area of expertise.

What if Billy Lived?

What if Billy Lived?

Hello my best boys and girls! So I decided to think of the possible and do…what if. I’m sure we’ve all thought of what ifs; what if I asked her out, what if I got gummy bears and not gummy worms, what if I took that job? While we don’t have time to think about EVERYONES personal life, I do decide to talk about movies/TV shows and the what ifs in those. To start what I hope is a recurring theme: what if Billy (stranger things) lived? To discuss this, I am joined by my amazing wife!

Favorite comedies!

Favorite comedies!

So today, I decided to do something different on my podcast. I wanted different people to talk about their favorite comedies! I wanted to get the best actors, producers, directors, and critics…but when I did that, I was laughed at, criticized, “violently removed from the vicinity,” you get the picture. So I just grabbed people in my direct area and interviewed them! I hope you enjoy hearing about favorite comedies!

Endings to movies

Endings to movies

Well, since my SEASON (not my podcast) is coming to a close, I thought I should talk about endings to movies and some of the different types of endings as well as my opinions on them.

How Veggietales handles some dark subjects

How Veggietales handles some dark subjects

Hello, my best boys and girls! So, the Bible can get very dark and gruesome sometimes and well, it can be hard to make a children's TV show about it. However Big Idea did just that and managed to handle the dark subjects and topics of the Bible with class and art. How you ask? Well, listen to this episode of Post-Credits: Rants & References to find out. I hope you enjoy and don't forget to follow me on Instagram @post_credits_podcast Enjoy!

Animated vs Live-Action

Animated vs Live-Action

Tv shows...we all know 'em and most of the time, they are animated or live action. Most of the time, animated is for children but there are some exceptions, and they are for the older crowd (Simpsons, Bob's Burgers, ect). Live action can be for anyone, but we tend to watch more live action as we get older. And yes, while I did do an animated vs live-action Survivor episode, I decided to discuss the differences between them as well as some of the challenges that can come from both.

How to make a perfect Horror Movie...using a short film, Lights Out

How to make a perfect Horror Movie...using a short film, Lights Out

So, it is almost Halloween time for pumpkins, candy, and horror films. Some are good and others are...not so good. However, I have found the best way to make a horror film in the form of the 2013 short (3 mins!) film, Lights Out. This will be similar to where I break down why that episode of Scrubs made the perfect twist where I identify an element in the example, and I explain why it's good. I hope you enjoy, and feel free to follow me on Instagram @post_credits_podcast Tell everyone you know!

Trippy Reality Movies

Trippy Reality Movies

Today I go over some of the trippy reality movies and why they BLOW MY MIND. I personally think it’s fun to speculate about those reality movies and what you (yes you) would do if you were in them. Would you freak out or accept it? Would you do anything different than what the main characters did? Would you rather have the fake reality that was false but comforting and familiar? Hope you enjoy this episode!

Rewatching TV shows

Rewatching TV shows

Well, I'm back my best boys and girls and I will be talking about rewatching movies and TV shows and how your opinion can change based on a lot of different things. While the movie and TV shows don't change, your opinion and you do! Something that could be funny, and the best thing ever could be annoying and stupid later on and something that is boring, and lame could be the best thing ever a few years later. The themes could be clearer, the undertones are better, and it could be all around better.

Sequels AND New Seasons

Sequels AND New Seasons

A little while ago, I talked about sequels and prequels to movies. However, I feel I could have gone deeper into sequels and discussed new seasons of show since that is pretty much like a sequel. Today, I talk more about sequels and new seasons of TV shows and when they are good and not good. Then, I discuss some theories about the next season of Cobra Kai and my wife contributes to it. I also bring on other guest stars (that don't really talk). That's all for this episode!

Character Assassination vs Character Addition

Character Assassination vs Character Addition

Sometimes you may be watching a movie sequel, or a TV show and you may be thinking; "What happened to my beloved character? Why are they so bad when they have no reason to be bad?" Well, that is called "Character Assassination" and that means that for some reason, they take a great and beloved character and take all of their good traits and YEET them out the window. Now, the flip side of that is when you're watching a TV show and you're thinking, "Wow, I used to hate this character and now I love them!" Well, that is what I call "Character Addition" and that is when a character changes for the better and we understand why they did what they did. That is what this episode is about, and I hope you enjoy it. Be sure to follow me on Instagram @post_credits_podcast and thanks for listening!

Unfriended: The Dark Web; they learned

Unfriended: The Dark Web; they learned

So, I did not like the first Unfriended. So, I was shocked when they made another movie like that. I saw a brief synopsis to see if it was as bad as the first one and it seemed OK. When I was channel surfing at night, I saw it was on and decided to watch it. As Palpatine says "A surprise to be sure but a welcome one." It was not that bad and it actually corrected a lot of the mistakes the first one made. Why? Find out on this episode! Follow me on Instagram @post_credits_podcast and tell everyone about it!

A Quiet Place vs Bird Box World

Two movies that essentially take away a sense. In A Quiet Place, you can't make any sound and in Bird Box, you can't see...or else you DIE!

WandaVision!

WandaVision!

WandaVision was the first of Marvels run with TV shows and it is amazing for its content yes, but also the execution. It may have been, dare I say, BETTER executed than Order 66?? Regardless, it did take me a little while to appreciate it since there is a lot implied. However nothing that an honest podcast host can’t explain! Guest starring: my wife!

My thoughts on Taken

The Liam Neeson movie Taken is a classic movie. It's got action, high stakes, and a great line that I'm sure everyone has heard of.

Remakes and my thoughts on it

Let's face it, it's no secret that there has been a trend in movies and that is to remake movies. However, is this good or is it bad? When should they remake it? How can it go wrong?
