TJ and Joseph are joined this week by special guest Linsay Morgan to discuss ‘Twlight: Breaking Dawn Part II’. Lots of fun discussion about what is good and what is bad about the series, how bad Stephanie Meyer’s writing is, which films have been better and which have been worse (there is much disagreement on this topic), which film had better music (again, disagreement), the male versus female perspective on the series, the difference in Meyer’s vampire mythos versus normal vampire mythos and more. Then TJ and Joseph discuss Spielberg’s ‘Lincoln’. It is difficult not to discuss political views with a film like this but TJ and Joseph make a grand attempt to relate their views but be open and not offend too many people. All in all they determine that ‘Lincoln’ was a well made film but suffers from some historical revisionism. They also briefly discuss (or they try to keep it brief) Corey Poff’s MovieByte review of ‘The Amazing Spider-man’, and the ‘Now You See Me’ trailer.

TJ and Joseph before and after ‘The MovieByte Podcast’ episode 18. They do exciting stuff like check mics and set levels, they talk about general show prep and how TJ has not yet written his ‘Skyfall’ review, how they feel like they are going to be a bit of a wet blanket when it comes to ‘Skyfall’ and that they don’t get the ‘Skyfall’ hype, they talk ‘The Host’, ‘House of Cards’ and ‘Arrested Development’, original content on Netflix, they watch the trailer for ‘The Host’, they discuss Lindsay Morgan guesting on the next episode, more Bond talk, and more.

TJ and Joseph discuss ‘The Host’ and the new trailer for the upcoming feature film based on Stephanie Meyer’s first post-Twilight book, the idea that Darth Vader might come back for ‘Star Wars: Episode VII’, Michael Arndt writing ‘Star Wars VII’, ‘Oz the Great and Powerful’ newest trailer, ‘Arrested Development’ being picked up by streaming video service Netflix as well as an original show, ‘House of Cards’, and they spend some time talking about how the industry can move forward and move toward a more on-demand model. Then they get down to the main topic, ‘Skyfall’. Neither TJ nor Joseph were quite as blown away by this film as the rest of the world seems to be and they discuss why that is and why everyone else may like it so much, and why it was after all a decent film. They discuss likes, dislikes, what they would have liked to see different and more.

After The MovieByte Podcast Episode 16. TJ and Joseph discuss drinking and drunkenness and the U.S.’ poor outlook on alcohol consumption. This leads into more talk about ‘Flight’ as well and some of the nuances and how they could have presented the drinking and drunkenness better, the drama and melodrama and more. They also discuss Denzel Washington and his faith.

Join TJ and Joseph for some awesome movie discussion! This week they kick off with some follow up on the ‘Star Wars’ discussion with Mathew Vaugn rumored to be in the running to direct Episode VII, plus Joseph really liked the idea of Machete Order. Then they briefly talk about ‘The Amazing Spider-man’ coming on on DVD and Blu-ray. As they have discussed in a past episode, Joseph quite liked the film and TJ didn’t see it in protest. TJ also wrote a short article regarding 3D which TJ and Joseph discuss. Then they get to the meat and potatoes and talk about ‘Wreck-it Ralph’. Wreck-it Ralph is estimated by your hosts to be a really, really great ‘Pixar’ film even though it’s technically not a Pixar film, it’s a Disney film. With John Lasseter executive producing though, who would have expected anything different? They also discuss the idea that Disney and Pixar swapped studio names for ‘Brave’ and ‘Wreck-it Ralph’. They have a lot of fun with this one. And then the discus briefly the also released this past weekend ‘Flight’. Flight was an okay film and worth watching. Be sure to tune in for a great conversation.

In this week’s episode of ‘The Wrap’ Joseph brings you a few of the highlights from the past week. Such as Joss Whedon’s political satire involving Mitt Romney and Zombies. Seriously, no matter what side of the political isle you are on, if you don’t laugh, you may not be human. Next Joseph highlights TJ’s review of ‘Cloud Atlas’. It’s safe to say that neither of them liked it, although TJ may have disliked it more. Also highlighted, Corey reviewed ‘Prometheus’ and didn’t think it was so great either. And of course Joseph highlights the big news of the week, Lucas Film has been acquired by Disney. This topic in fact sort of consumed MovieByte starting on Wednesday. And don’t forget that the ‘Red Dawn’ remake is coming up. Finally, Joseph highlights MovieByte’s TV and Netflix subscription giveaway. You don’t want to miss this one folks!

TJ and Joseph prepping for, and then after ‘The MovieByte Podcast’, Episode 16. They talk about how to address some topics in the show, Disney taking over the world, Bryan Singer, ‘Superman Returns’, the third ‘X-Men’ film, The TV and Netflix giveaway, images and icons, ‘Star Tre’k and ‘Star Wars’, Machete Order, the ‘Star Wars’ Prequels, showing ‘Star Wars’ to kids and more.
