Video Friday – Magnum Vs. Solo

Posted on June 6, 2009

I’ve been very busy getting The Flickcast on its feet at new hosting (Thank you Media Temple) so I’ve been remiss with the blog. Shocking, I know. Fortunately, I’ve got a great video to share with you this week.

I don’t have much to say about this video except that its extremely funny, especially if you’re an avid fan of both Magnum, P.I. and Star Wars. Which, I’m happy to say, I am.

Enjoy this and realize what it took to make it work. These guys are pretty smart indeed.

Video Friday – The ‘Moon’ Trailer

Posted on April 11, 2009

I like space stuff. Some of my favorite movies and TV shows have been about space. Shows like Apollo 13, The Right Stuff and From the Earth to the Moon have always fascinated me. So, I’m pretty interested in the new movie Moon starring Sam Rockwell and directed by Duncan Jones.

The trailer looks great and gives some good insight into the psychology of isolation that’s obviously going to play out in the film. Plus, I’ve always been a fan of Sam Rockwell. I’m looking forward to seeing this one as soon as I can. Enjoy.

Oh, and I’ll just take this moment to mention that there’s a new episode of The Flickcast now available We’ve also we’ve started posting some other material today as well. So, head on over and check it out.

Video Friday (on Tuesday) — Le Wrath di Kahn

Posted on January 27, 2009

Today’s special Tuesday edition of ‘Video Friday’ comes from a show called Robot Chicken. If you are not watching Robot Chicken, you should be. It’s that good.

I won’t bother making any brilliant, funny or incisive comments about the video. Suffice to say that its just plain awesome and you should watch it. Now.

Video Friday — “Star Wars” Retold by Someone Who Hasn’t Seen It

Posted on January 16, 2009

Much like previous weeks, this Friday brings another “Star Wars” themed video. Yes, I like Star Wars, so what? When you have your own blog you can post videos about your favorite movies, no matter what they are.

Until then, enjoy this one about, you guessed it, “Star Wars.” Did I mention this is about “Star Wars”? I just want to make sure I mention “Star Wars” enough so there’s no confusion regarding this video. Its about “Star Wars.” Clear? Good. Enjoy.

Video Friday – The New Doctor Who

Posted on January 3, 2009

Here he is. Its Matt Smith, the eleventh actor to portray the iconic character. He seems like a nice enough fellow — at least in this interview. He also seems genuinely excited to have the role. How will he be as the Doctor? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. Enjoy.
