Naked Crusader's presents "The Swing Gang" Produced by Christian King and Sean Skidmore and hosted by Brandon Schoonmaker. This is the first in our on going film appreciation podcast that follows Brandon, Sean, Logan, Christian and Mark in a conversation style discussion of film related news and entertainment.
In "Leading Stories" some of the major Oscar nominations were compared including 'True Grit' and 'Black Swan'
Another regular segment was introduced called "Sucks Balls/Worth a Shot" The merits of new to be released films were debated where the gang each decided whether it would suck balls or be worth a shot. The segment covered mostly superhero films such as 'Thor', 'Captain America', and 'X-men: First Class'
There were other films discussed but the superhero films stood out. Most of the group agreed that the films were worth a shot but also in agreement was the notion that Hollywood is out of new ideas and rebooting old ideas is all they have left. Or sucking comic books dry.
The podcast was wrapped up with the last regular segment where everyone suggest something new to check out or something that they were specially attached to. Christian opened the floor with "Monster"
Brandon suggested "Gasland" an Oscar nominated documentary
Sean went with a blast from the past and reminded everyone of 'Dances With Wolves'
Check us out next week. "The Swing Gang" Plan to cover the notoriously weak weeks after Oscar with the comedies and sci-fi on the horizon, the merits and pitfalls of 3-D, and the new Superman.
