“Welcome True Believers!“ I recently had the luck to travel over to Los Angeles with Podwits contributor J. Blake on what proved to be one of the most exciting, and rewarding trips that I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. The bulk of that is due to the GREAT content we were able to gather and will be [...]

On the Podwits Podcast, we don’t examine the greater mysteries of life, the universe and everything. Mainly because the computer that we were using for such things was destroyed to make way for a hyperspace bypass, but we digress. Instead, we look at the bigger picture of pop culture; where our movies are going and [...]

In this week’s podcast, our boys take one step beyond into the tantalizing world of holiday foods gone wrong.

Review by Luke Whitmire James Bond celebrates his fiftieth year on the big screen, and we are introduced to all the elements that make the mythology so endearing: the gadgets, the beautiful girls, the exotic locations, and the eccentric villains. Skyfall is the 23rd movie in the most successful film series of all time, and what [...]
DC Comics Raped My Childhood!

OK… actually, no it didn’t. No more than George Lucas did. What DC did do, however, was give false hope and then completely piss all over everything I ever knew and loved about DC Comics.

Earth [...]

With Brian on temporary assignment, this installment finds Dion and J dissecting Asylum Pictures, the new CBS series based on Sherlock Holmes called Elementary, and the shocking news of a slated Justice League film, without any set prequels to ignite the franchise.

So [...]
