    Guesses on much Stern is going to charge us for a branded USB-Wifi dongle? 3x an off the shelf version? I hope a generic one will work.

    Speaking of dongles, what ever happened with that HDMI out hardware? Haven't heard peep on it in months.

    Very good point. I will be curious to see what they have to offer and for how much.

    I am also hopeful for some co-op or challenge modes for Deadpool as was hinted at by George Gomez in his interview with Joel last week.

    TPS-Ep67 -> Now that’s how,you do an interview !! Spooky came across brilliantly, while Bug and Luke described how they are managing the company. You did your research and the questions you crafted resulted in the best interview of Spooky I have ever heard. Very, very, very top shelf, Sir ::golf clap:

    Ditto. I listen to a lot of podcasts and countless interviews and this was about the best I've ever heard. Zach, you did an excellent job on this one!

    Really enjoyed doing this and when I listened back I was blown away by Zach's ability to interview. I was pretty nervous about being on and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out! Great guy to work with!

    Just listened to the latest episode. Great job by everyone. I thought everyone came off well and appreciated everyone from Spooky being on and answering Zach’s questions. Just make sure you guys listen to the soundtrack from Armageddon while deer watching together.

    There was some strange audio editing bugs in this one, where you could hear Kriesel repeat himself in the background while talking. I assume that was not intentional?

    Quoted from mtn-:

    That sounded very intentional. Presumably done to spice up that drawn out story.

    Quoted from lodgingdolphin:

    Yeah intentional to showcase my mind not grasping the drawn out details of the story as only Dennis can do. It was my first attempt at the effect, but I’ll keep working on it as it was confusing to some.

    I'm on Team Dwight for Harry Potter. I can picture a beautiful-looking game with illustrated art. And only using the book license gives them way more freedom. I don't want actor clip-art all over the game.

    Even though it'll be waaay cheaper to license, book Potter will still sell like hotcakes! Zach is smoking dope if he thinks it won't sell. The books were megahits long before the movies came out.

    The audio of Amanda was fine for everyone else? I couldn't listen more than a few minutes because her audio was awful. She sounded tinny, distant and broadcasting from a bathroom stall. It's a shame because I'd be interested in listening to Dwight's comments, but listening to the questions was painful.

    Oh it would sell no doubt, but I think it would be a big misstep

    That’s what I was going for hahaha

    #2434 2 years ago

    I hope folks have already written to Mr. Meny to explain how ash is not going back to the cabin for a second time in evil dead 2 and why a standalone evil dead pin would be the worst option of the three movies, with the best option being a pin that covers all three (with ED1 getting the least content) so I don't have to

    #2435 2 years ago
    Quoted from ZMeny:

    I got the joke. I thought it was pretty funny.

    #2436 2 years ago
    Quoted from ZMeny:

    The books are timeless. You'll never get enough actor assets to make most people happy with the end result, if it was movie based.

    Quoted from PismoArcade:

    Sadly they sold out super (hehe) fast. But if willing to pay a premium I hear some are flipping them on eBay.

    Quoted from ZMeny:

    I must have missed it, please do explain.

    Basically, the first several minutes of Evil Dead 2 are a recap / redo of Evil Dead and then the rest is brand new stuff. Same thing happens with Army of Darkness, except this time recapping/redoing the first two movies. So in ED2, Ash is going to the cabin for the first time and only time even though we've seen him do it in a prior movie (with different details and execution). And in AoD, Ash is still going to the cabin for the first and only time, even though we've seen him do it in two previous movies.

    Edit: Quick google has lots of articles about this. Here's a short one: https://screenrant.com/evil-dead-2-movie-remake-sequel/

    Much appreciate the explanation and link. On the other hand, it makes me realize even more the greatness of ED1. It’s like a rewrite but with a worse outcome. They didn’t need a whole film to have the guy cut his arm off and act wacky. Maybe I’ll never understand (shrug). AOD is next on the list

    Different strokes for different folks!

    When I was a kid I'd rent what looked like terrible horror movies from the store to laugh at how bad they were. Saw army of darkness box and rented it with that in mind, then watched it three times in a row that night because I thought it was the coolest fing thing.

    Eventually found out it was a sequel and rented evil dead. And was like what the hell is this? Straight up low budget scary horror movie with no jokes. Not for me and decades later have only seen it a handful of times

    ED2 is a hybrid of the two but much more up my alley since Ash actually has a personality, says cool shit, and isn't really scary.

    So with that in mind, you'll probably dislike Army of Darkness the most. That said, one hopes you can put aside personal preference to recognize how it has so much more to work with for pinball than the first in the series. But will you? I'll look forward to listening next week to find out!

    #2444 2 years ago

    ED2 is by far the best and not close; every single scene is a masterpiece.

    My school didn't even have frats and I used to be able to recite the entire movie!

    #2447 2 years ago

    At Faber College, we had so much fun doing stuff in the Delta Tau Chi house, there was no time to watch ED or AoD. We found ourselves on double secret probation until one big party where we accidentally burned the whole campus. Oh well. . I really like ED2, but ED not so much.
