Episode 136: Minecrafting Pixel iPads, Snozberry Alergies, And Rounding Nerd Tables

January 28, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

The first full show of 2013 brings the return of The Nerd Roundtable…you know, the lazy man’s Scope bit. Jared, Adam, and Shane buzz through a bunch of topical topics (most of which are sure to cause all sorts hurt feelings or straight-up boredom from the Scope fan base.) That being said, the guys still save enough time to get into the latest video games and how J.J. Abrams will ruin and/or kick ass on the latest Star Wars movie.

All in all, it’s a fine return to Scope form. You’d be a lowdown dirty chump if you didn’t download and listen. Like right now. What are you waiting for? Oh, your mom is using the computer and you can’t get it right now? No problem, the show ain’t going anywhere. We’ll be here for you.

The Scope episode 136 knows Shane has the same body as Peyton Manning. And that’s a scary thing.

Scope Instant Review: Zero Dark Thirty

January 11, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

The Scope Winter Film Binge is back and better than ever! This latest edition is all about Kathryn Bigelow’s Zero Dark Thirty. It’s a grim and gritty look at the hunt for Bin Laden.

But if there’s one thing you won’t be hunting for in this audio review is Adam…because, for the first time in the Binge, he’s part of the team. That’s right, your favorite third wheel is in on the discussion and, boy, does he have things to say. Some of it is even relevant to the film.

So get to downloading and learn The Scope’s take on an early Oscar favorite.

The Scope Zero Dark Thirty review likes the fact that Burt Macklin was on the case. America salutes you, Agent.

Scope Instant Review: Life of Pi

January 7, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

Bring on 2013 and the continuation of The Scope’s Winter Film Binge! This time around, Jared, Shane, Carrie, and Lil’ Scoper Audrey take on the tragic story of a slice of french silk, lost at sea with only an angry piece of red velvet cake to keep him company.

Of course, we’re talking about Ang Lee’s visual masterpiece (and Oscar bait) Life of Pi. Yes, this adaptation of the very spiritual 2001 book is oh so pretty, but does it have what it takes to impress our Scope film board? You’ll just have to do a little downloading and find out.

So get to it, won’t you?

The Scope Life of Pi review knows Ang Lee’s Hulk is the one true Hulk, always and forever.
