ODO 52: March Movie Madness

MARCH MOVIE MADNESS

This week I’m devoting the entire show to the awesome slate of films dropping this month. Between the superhero epic of “Logan” and the batshit crazy “The Belko Experiment” this is shaping up to be the best march movie season ever. Keeping with the movie theme, this week’s Recommended Listening is another Sanspants Radio gem, “Movie Maintenance- Because some movies just need fixing.”

GET OUT- February 24, 2017


Now that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy (Catherine Keener) and Dean (Bradley Whitford). At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he could have never imagined. 

 

LOGAN- March 3, 2017


In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan’s attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces. 

 KONG: SKULL ISLAND- March 10, 2017


A diverse team of explorers is brought together to venture deep into an uncharted island in the Pacific – as beautiful as it is treacherous – unaware that they’re crossing into the domain of the mythic Kong.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST- March 17, 2017

 

An adaptation of the classic fairy-tale about a monstrous prince and a young woman who fall in love.

 

THE BELKO EXPERIMENT- March 17, 2017

The Belko Experiment explores a twisted social experiment, in which a group of 80 Americans are locked in their high-rise corporate office in Bogata and ordered by an unknown voice on an intercom system to participate in a deadly game of kill or be killed. 

POWER RANGERS- March 24, 2017

 

Power Rangers follows five ordinary high school kids who must become something extraordinary when they learn that their small town of Angel Grove – and the world – is on the verge of being obliterated by an alien threat. Chosen by destiny, our heroes quickly discover that they are the only ones who can save the planet. But to do so they will have to overcome their real-life issues and band together as the Power Rangers before it is too late.

ODO 50: Is It Spring Already?

IS IT SPRING ALREADY

 It’s only February, yet I’ve already had to have the a/c running in my house for weeks. I’ve had to get back into full scale yard work. And I’m starting to see the evil death critters from hell, scorpions, around the house again. I don’t want it to be spring yet. On top of that, in AZ we have spring training baseball. It may be great for the local economy, but it absolutely sucks for traffic. I just want winter to go on for a little longer.

BULLSHIT FROM THE NEWS

The wife and step-son of a self-proclaimed Imperial Wizard of the KKK have been arrested for murder. The pair have admitted to shooting the man and dumping his body.

An Army command post in Washington state has issued a memo banning the playing of Nickelback, Smash Mouth, Creed, Korn and Slipknot.

A 21 year old woman in the UK is planning to sue the Euromillions lottery after she says winning $1.6 million at age 17 ruined her life.


JACKASS OF THE WEEK

A Seattle woman is fighting to get her brother’s security deposit and last month’s rent, to pay for funeral expenses, after he died of a heart attack. The landlord is refusing to return the money claiming that his death violated his lease and forfeits his deposit.

“In which we ask the important questions in pop culture and dissect fictional universes. Because seriously, who deals with super weapon sanitation and imperial employee agreements? If you’re looking for serious discussions, this isn’t the podcast you’re looking for and we are so sorry about that joke.”
