Episode 148: Let’s Get Medium Active With Thomas The Ghosthunter Part 2

August 26, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

The Scope returns with part 2 of our interview with Thomas the ghosthunter. This time around, friend of the show TKT talks about his association with the Twin Cities Paranormal Society (TCPS) and some of their adventures. It’s still a spooky but genuinely interesting conversation with a genuinely interesting gentleman.

We also know that The Scope ain’t all about ghosts. So we’ll also jump back into the world of pop culture with our world famous Coming Soon segment. Shh. Don’t thank us. We’re just doin’ our job.

The Scope episode 148 can’t get enough of imperial measurements.

Check out Thomas’ website! Read his words! Buy something! Send him a message! Just do something (nice), people!

Scope Instant Review: The World’s End

August 22, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

The Summer Film Slam is complete! We close out the summer movie season in solo style with the conclusion to the ‘Cornetto Trilogy’, The World’s End. Director Edgar Wright teams once again with actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost for more madcap, mixed-genre comedy adventures. This time, middle-age malaise and extended adolescence are on the table as the lads attempt to complete the Golden Mile pub crawl, culminating in a final pint at The World’s End pub. But of course, things are amiss in town, and our team’s journey is in jeopardy. Will they make it out alive, and more importantly, will you enjoy watching them try? Listen in to find out.

The Scope’s The World’s End review has always known the meaning of ‘WTF’.

Episode 147: Let’s Get Medium Active With Thomas The Ghosthunter Part 1

August 19, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

Episode 147 of The Scope brings back friend of the show, Thomas (aka TKT) with stories of his latest interest: ghosthunting. In the first part of a two part interview, Thomas will tell tales of how he got interested in the paranormal, what it takes to be a hunter of ghosts, and where he’s gone to find said ghosts. It’s a spooky and ooky affair.

But, because we have so much content to share, we don’t stop with ghosts. Of course you’ll get a healthy dose of Under The Scope and Hit It Or Miss It. Yes, we’re all that. You don’t need to say it because we know already.

The Scope episode 147 thinks there might be something to those floating orbs in all those ghost photos…we don’t care what Thomas says.

Scope Instant Review: The Spectacular Now

August 15, 2013  |  Posted by: The Scope

The Scope Summer Movie Slam is back with a very special review of The Spectacular Now. Why so very special? Well, this thoughtful coming-of-age teen drama would have made one hell of an after school special. Also, sometimes Scope contributor (and wife of Scope host, Shane) Carrie joins the crew in the mobile Scope studio for some thoughtful critique. That’s pretty special in itself, isn’t’ it?

Could this movie be one of the best of the summer? Further, could it be one of the best films of the year? Download this podcast and find out if this Sundance darling really has what it takes. Do it now, if you know what’s good for you.

The Scope The Spectacular Now instant review might buy a flask for you…if you ask nicely.

Scope Instant Review: Kick-Ass 2

  |  Posted by: The Scope

This edition of The Scope Summer Movie Slam brings you Kick-Ass 2, the sequel to the 2010 comic book movie, (appropriately titled, btw) Kick-Ass. Kick-Ass 2 features the further insane superhero adventures of Dave and Mindy. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Kick-Ass movie if there wasn’t tons of violence, dark humor, and severed appendages.

But the biggest question still remains: what will Shane and Jared think yet another summer sequel? Well, download the review and find out, punks!

The Scope Kick-Ass 2 instant review is amazed how many times it got to type the word “ass” in the review teaser text.

Scope Instant Review: Elysium

August 9, 2013  |  Posted by: Jared

The dog days of summer may be upon us, but that’s no excuse to not keep Scope Summer Movie Slamming away! This time around, Jared and Shane take a look at Neill Blomkamp’s followup to the well-regarded District 9, Elysium.

In this sci-fi flick, Matt Damon shaves his head and gets an exo-suit drilled into his bones in order to take on the 1% and get some universal health care. All the while Jodie Foster and Sharlto Copley try and stop him as only the privileged (and CRAZEE!) can.

This is an action movie with a message, people! But the big question is this: will your Scope hosts approve? Why don’t you all go ahead and download this bad boy and find out!

The Scope Elysium instant review wonders why Neill doesn’t have more flying cars and hoverboards in the future. Isn’t that where we’re really going, Blomkamp?
