Respect and Opinions

Respect and Opinions

I want to talk a little about opinions, anger, respect, and intelligent conversation.

A comment was made recently on an opinion post I wrote that the commenter had lost respect for the site because of my opinion. I love all of our readers and we are thankful for your support. I’m not upset about the comment, for I realize that we will get this sort of thing all the time. But as MovieByte is young, I do want to talk just a bit about how we should approach our conversation and our respect for one another. I want to lay out a bit of what we are looking for because I do want to have a great…

We have another edition of the fun MovieByte Podcast planned for you this evening at 6:30 Central Time.

TJ and I are discussing Olympus Has Fallen, the hottest action flick starring Gerard Butler (King Leonidas, Clyde Shelton), Morgan Freeman (God, another U.S. president) and Aaron Eckhart (Two-Face, Rethrick). A little about this film:

When the White House (Secret Service Code: “Olympus”) is captured by a terrorist mastermind and the President is kidnapped, disgraced former presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped within the building. As our national security team…

MovieByte Podcast #36 Live Broadcast

Don’t forget you’ll want to tune in tonight to get the scoop on Halle Berry’s latest film The Call. Joe and I have seen said film and we’re going to give you the run down — as always, we do have opinions we want to share with you about this film, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

There is also something else I will want to discuss at least briefly. It’s something that bugs the tar out of me sometimes. Here’s a spoiler from our show outline:


 

You’ll have to tune in tonight to find out more. I like the /Filmcast, I really do, but once in a while I get irritated about stuff they say…

Wednesday Live Broadcast Schedule

Wednesday Live Broadcast Schedule

Hey folks, here’s the TL;DR version: we’re going to be live broadcasting our weekly podcast tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 PM Central (3:00 Eastern) due to scheduling conflicts.

And the longer version…

We were looking for a guest to join me on the Podcast as Joe will not be available in the evening, but every single person we tried was unavailable. The only recourse, other than my monologuing the whole time (no), was to reschedule the live broadcast to the afternoon instead of evening. I don’t know how I’m going to get any other work done tomorrow with the interuption right in the middle of…

Live Broadcast at 6:30 PM!

Hey movie fans, we’re going to be climbing that beanstalk up into the land of the giants on our live broadcast this evening and we’d love for you to join us and contribute in the chatroom, or even just enjoy listening.

I don’t know about Joe, but I’m going to be talking about how good this film is, why I like it, and muse about why in the world critics are panning it. It should be great fun. Even if you didn’t like the film, be sure to tune in and throw popcorn at your screen speakers, and offer up your disagreements via the live chatroom and we might even address them.

Below is the…

With Joe back on his feet, and our schedule caught up with Episode 32 in the can, we’re looking foward to talking about Tron: Legacy tonight on our live broadcast. It’s a great film and it’s sure to be a lot of fun. We’ll even have a special guest with us to talk about the film.

Episode 32 at 3:30 Central! (4:30 Eastern)

Episode 32 at 3:30 Central! (4:30 Eastern)

Yay! I’ve heard from Joe this morning. He’s on the mend and, more importantly, Episode 32 is a go for today! We’ll be talking about the Back to the Future trilogy, rocking out with Marty McFly and the Doc, and we’d love to have you listening live and with us, partcipate  in the chat room, and generally having fun with us!

We’re going to be broadcasting at 3:30 PM Central Time (4:30 Eastern) so be sure to tune in, and be ready to travel to 1985, 1955, 2015, and 1885 with us, it should be a blast from the future past!

Episode 32 Reschedule

Episode 32 Reschedule

Okay guys, here’s the deal: I roused Joe on iMessage long enough to get him to say that he thought he would be well enough to do episode 32 on Monday.

Since we’re already off schedule, we’re thinking of doing it during the day sometime. How many of you would be able to listen to us live during the day (say around lunchtime) as opposed to our normal 6:30 PM. Is that better or worse for you guys? Because we would love to have you listening live and interacting with us in the chat room. We’ll be talking about the Back to the Future trilogy.

Let us know in the comments what you think.

No Podcast Tonight

No Podcast Tonight

I am very sorry about this folks, but it looks like there will be no podcast tonight. Joe let me know yesterday that he was getting sick and was headed home early. Today I have not been able to get in touch with him until just now and he confirmed to me that he is too sick to do the show tonight. I am hopeful of doing it tomorrow night, but I have no idea whether he will be well enough or not by then. I really want to talk about Back to the Future!

Keep an eye out for details of the reschedule! We’ll keep you informed!
