Hi Chewers — just wanted to turn you on to a podcast on which I just recently appeared, and that I think you’ll enjoy. You can listen at that site, or find it on iTunes by looking up “Imperial Trouble.”
I’ve been a guest on Imperial Trouble before, and while that episode might be considered an Animorphs/Michael Bay-focused “debacle” (my fault), this particular conversation between myself, Jason Mallory, and Sam Mitchell is a meaty, delicious look at this quickly waning blockbuster summer. We hit a lot of fun topics in a mere hour, including Rise of the Planet of the Apes, alien design in blockbusters, Captain America and Marvel in general, the state of online film coverage (with a focus on the TDKR spy photos), and much more.
I’d really love to hear your thoughts on the various topics, and hope some of you agree with my thoughts or are ready to step up and call me on my shit.
Make sure you check out the full Imperial Trouble site and their Twitter/Facebook page– it’s a great podcast that would certainly appeal to many sci-fi loving chewers.
If you give it a listen, shout out what you think on twitter, in the comments below, or on the boards. Cheers!

Renn I like the name and logo for your podcast. Keep those words emanating from your face!
Great podcast. Felt like I was in the room talking with you guys.
I am definitely sick of all the alien bullshit that is going around lately, although it could be my bias against concept artist Neville Page and his rehashed designs for every monster movie it seems. Gotta agree with Cowboys and Aliens as well. The movie held no craft whatsoever and I can’t even recall any impressive shots(something Rise of the Apes had in spades).
It’s been a pretty weak summer for legitimately impressive blockbusters. Instead we get a half dozen mediocre flicks and one or two stellar picks.
