Whadjathink? – “World War Z”

Join the U.N. and Z the World

Welcome to the latest addition to the JediCole Universe Podcasting Network, Whadjathink?  Inspired by her recent appearance on Hey Kids, Comics! #49, this new show, hosted by Catherine “Mrs. JediCole” Houston, will be an informal discussion of recent film releases or (at times) premiere episodes of television shows that she has seen.  Initially the cast will be Catherine, JediCole, and one special guest.

To kick of the show Catherine and Cole are joined by friend of the JCU Bobby Blakey as they discuss the cinematic undead epic that is World War Z!  Your trio of hosts talk at length about the Brad Pitt movie in intimate detail so be warned, spoilers abound.  If you have not seen this movie and do not want anything revealed that you don’t already know, please bookmark this show and listen to it when you have seen World War Z for yourself. 

SPOILER ALERT!  You have been warned.  Now enjoy the show!

Hey Kids, Comics! #49 - Forging Steel

Look!  Up on the screen!  It’s Superman!

The “Last Son of Krypton” has had a long and healthy career on screens both large and small and has now been reinvented as an iconic hero for a new era with the release of Warner Brothers Man of Steel.  It is only natural, therefore, that Andrew and Cole take a tall-building-spanning leap at the latest cinematic incarnation of Superman. 

In this special issue Catherine “Mrs. JediCole” Houston joins the discussion focuses on the recently released blockbuster (which has already been guaranteed a sequel).  The “Man of Tomorrow” has been remade for today, but not without his detractors.  Andy, Cole, and Catherine sift through the rubble of Metropolis to get a feel for everything, good and bad, that Zach Snyder brought to the silver screen in his take on the flagship character of DC Comics.

WARNING!  This podcast may contain spoilers.

Note: The previously announced Creator Spotlight: Bill Willingham issue has been postponed to issue #56.

Hey Kids, Comics! #48 - Play Ball!

Would you like to play a game?  A ball game that is!  We’re talking about hitting the field or the court for some good old fashioned sports.  But this isn't good old fashioned sports!  No, instead what we have in mind here at the Hey Kids, Comics! Athletic Department is taking baseball, football, and basketball to heroic new levels.  Indeed, super-heroic levels!

 

Andrew and Cole take the field with special guest Eddie Medina as they take the super-hero team concept in a different direction, that of a sports team.  Who will make the cut in the draft picks for this fantastic play on fantasy sports?  Will it be no powers or no-holds-barred when it comes to facing off in a friendly game?  Extrapolating on the classic Avengers/West Coast Avengers baseball games and the Xavier School Intramurals, your hosts suit up and admonish the coach to put them in the game!
