DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 328: WATER STREAM SWAMP TANK

John and Chris take on this Herculean task of reviewing this massive stack of home releases. From a 4k upgrade to one of John’s all time fave superhero movies, to them disagreeing whether a new horror comedy is one of the best or worst ever. From giving credit where it’s due to a sorely underrated but over budgeted apocalypse film, to Christopher Walken basically being Hannibal in an A-Teamish movie. Lots to talk about, lots of fun to be had listening.

All titles were sent to Digital Noise by the distribution companies in question for the purpose of review. No other compensation was involved. The opinions here are our own.

PLEASE USE OUR IMAGE LINKS TO BUY ANY OF THESE TITLES ON AMAZON. IN FACT, PLEASE USE THEM AS YOUR STARTING POINT FOR ANYTHING YOU BUY OFF OF AMAZON. WE ARE AN AFFILIATE AND RECEIVE COMPENSATION FOR PURCHASES MADE FROM OUR LINKS.

Christopher Lawrence Cox (Founder, Da Boss)

Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas in 1992 where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this community of critics. While Brian eventually followed his heart to a new family, Chris continues on with a cast of colorful folks from all over the country (and a few others). You can also check out Chris in his videocast, along with Martin Thomas and Danni Danger, that One Of Us does with our friends at Bell of Lost Souls: Crossover Event. He also regularly guests on the video game website Rage Select. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.

John Gholson (Digital Noise)

John Gholson is a writer and cartoonist with bylines at Movies.com, Moviefone, and Vice and illustration work for GQ and Fandango. As an actor, John can be seen in Zero Charisma, Hidden America With Jonah Ray, and The Suplex Duplex Complex. He writes and performs sketch comedy regularly at The New Movement Theater. John currently lives in Austin with his beloved comic book collection and a cat named after Peter Cushing.

MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN SEASON 1 REVIEW

For 85 years, the Last Son of Krypton has been fighting for truth and justice, and battling evil of all sorts. He balances a life as the superhero all other superheroes are compared to while living as mild mannered Clark Kent, working for the Daily Planet alongside the love of his life, Lois Lane, and his best pal Jimmy Olsen. Since the first appearance of Superman in Action Comics #1 in 1938, there have been 12 live action films, 9 tv shows, including several animated cartoons and films, each with their own style and their own devout following of fans. However you like your Man of Steel, there is a version for you to enjoy. In fact, there may be a current version waiting for you to fall in love with. At least that’s how the Screener Squad feels about it. My Adventures With Superman is the newest animated offering following Clark, Lois, and Jimmy as interns at the Daily Planet. The show combines a joyful, action packed tone similar to Avatar: The Last Airbender with the exploration of Clark’s new abilities and role as Superman seen in Smallville. Spider-Mike, Dogget, Chad, and T.C. soar through their fandom discussing their love for the big blue boy scout and why this show is so very good and gets so much so very right. And in a moment of life reflecting art, a technological menace worthy of Supes himself attacks one of the heroic Squad members mid-review!

T.C. De Witt (Screener Squad)

T.C. De Witt is a multi-awarded writer/director originally from Wisconsin and now based in Los Angeles. His life has been devoted to the arts since he was a child. He’s been a stage performer, playwright, stand-up comic, film and television actor, radio DJ, podcaster published author, recorded musician, and comic writer/illustrator. He is now a professional screenwriter and has been thriving for the past decade, regularly offering his talents to production studios in LA, Chicago, Milwaukee, and internationally in Sydney and Poland. He’s provided content for Amazon Prime, Netflix, and several YouTube partners. His films have screened internationally, and his stageplays have been performed across the country. In the last ten years, he has directed 57 films, 23 episodes of his series The One Minute Rewatch, 300+ episodes of podcasts, and his multi-award-winning short film Screen: Righter screened at the Festival de Cannes in 2016. He has released two feature films, The Princess Knight and A Christmas Sunset. He thrives on collaboration and the thrill of sharing stories in all forms.

Michael Riojas (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)

The man with the ever-changing nicknames. Born in Austin, Riojas was rocketed to Del Rio, Texas, a literal small ville. In his youth, he was bitten by a radioactive… okay, look. Mike is not very good at this whole “talking about himself” thing. But he has been so obsessed with comics, video games, and anime since childhood- that if one has to choose between listening to Joe Quesada or Mike over any obscure Spider-Man trivia, they go to him (or, at least Martin Thomas once said so). He is also a big fan of “Ghostbusters” (he even owns his own jumpsuit and two, that’s right, TWO proton packs!), collects toys and video games, and will defend “Superman IV: The Quest for Peace” if provoked. He lives in Austin with his beloved Dachshund-Maltese and trusted sidekick, Dean. He can also be heard on RageSelect. He can be found on Twitter and Instagram.

Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)

Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.

Chad Halvorsen (Screener Squad)

Chad Halvorsen currently resides in Milwaukee, WI, where he produces and edits commercials, films, and everything in between. He was always a fan of film/television growing up, spending days in the Summer, making (terrible) home movies with his brothers. Little did he know that passion would carry on into adulthood. Since 2006, Chad has worked for several agencies in various departments. Shooting, producing, editing, production management, directing, and when forced to, writing copy. In 2015, Chad decided to take the big leap and become a freelancer. Since then, he’s produced content for Lyft, AT&T, Target, and Discovery Network. His passion lies in entertaining people, making them feel better, even for a moment. All the pain and suffering of this business is worth it, if even just one person views his work. Chad is a frequent podcaster, most notably posing as a co-host for the podcast “The Film Illogical Society.”

Wright Sulek (Screener Squad, Digital Noise, Highly Suspect Reviews, Trash in the Can, Audio Editor)

Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. He currently co-hosts with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright also guests and hosts reviews on Screener Squad and Highly Suspect Reviews as well as co-hosts Digital Noise with Chris Cox.

Drew Tinnin (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Deliberations of Doom)

Drew Tinnin is a Rondo Award nominated interviewer and critic who has worked at SiriusXM’s Fangoria Radio and Fangoria magazine in NYC, as well as the London-based Dazed Digital. Currently a regular contributor to the Dread Central Network, he’s excited to join up with some old friends and other film fans on One of Us as a new contributor to Screener Squad.

Nathan Flynn (Screener Squad)

A recent transplant to Austin originally hailing from the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is the Midwest, Nathan Flynn has been a movie super freak since he saw “An American Werewolf in London” way too young and grew up worshipping the James Bond franchise and all things related to Cold War-era spycraft. When he’s not watching movies and being a constant defender of the Tron franchise, he can be found practicing his second biggest love: cooking (having been a chef for 10+ years) and hitting his head up against a desk to write screenplays that nobody reads. He also spearheads his own podcast on the Mission Impossible franchise titled “Mission: Impodible”. He can be found rarely posting on his personal twitter.

ONE PIECE SERIES REVIEW

King of the pirates Gold Roger (Michael Dorman) had fame and fortune beyond imagination. Before his execution he declared to all dreamers that his fortune was all there for the taking. You just have to find it first. A golden age of pirates has begun and sailors of all walks of life have set sail towards the grand line to claim Gold Roger’s fortune and become king of the pirates. Eiichiro Oda’s legendary ongoing manga OnePiece has been adapted into a Netflix live action series by Steven Maeda and Matt Owens. Monkey D. Luffy (Iñaki Godoy) , a carefree vagabond in a dingy, has made a promise to one day become king of the pirates. All he needs is a hardy crew and a map of the grand line. Roronoa Zoro (Mackenyu) has three swords and the ambition to be the greatest swordsman of all time. Nami (Emily Rudd) has a past, some secrets, and a love of cartography. Usopp (Jacob Romero Gibson) has tall tales of epic adventures but has never been on one of his own, but with his trusty slingshot his aim is as sharp as his tongue is silver. Lastly Sanji (Taz Skylar) is a chef with a nose for food and an eye for beautiful ladies. He wants to find an ancient legendary fish and cook the perfect meal. These strangers become friends, and then pirates, and face up against the swashbuckling wanted criminals of the sea. Amongst them are a circus themed pirate named Buggy (Jeff Ward), a fish man leading a revolution against land lubbers named Arlong (McKinney Belcher III) and they’ll also be chased by the law, specifically an old Navy Marine named Garp who knows Luffy more than most. Bradly, Dogget, and Matt break open the mead, eat some lemons, and discuss the success of anime adaptations, sing the praises of what the show accomplishes where other anime live action has failed, and together wonder what the OnePiece treasure could be.

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)

Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.

BOTTOMS MOVIE REVIEW

From the writer and the director of the criminally underseen Shiva Baby comes this new high school raunchy comedy, Bottoms. PJ (Rachel Sennott) and Josie (Ayo Edebiri) are best friends, gay, and pretty much on the bottom rung of popularity at their school. And at their school, it is ALL about football. The big game is coming up against their long time rivals and all eyes are on the quarterback Jeff (Nicholas Galitzine) except for Josie who has eyes for his girlfriend Isabel (Havana Rose Liu) and PJ who is zeroing in on Isabel’s best friend Brittany (Kaia Gerber). But the two popular girls are way out of their league. So what are two unpopular lesbians to do? Make a female fight club. Ok, it makes sense when you watch the movie. Sort of. Bottoms is going for the surreal and black humor of something like Heathers and for Chris, Wright, and Beau, it comes close to being a cult classic but doesn’t quite go the distance. Tune for their reviews and weirdly timed allegories to the Great British Bake-Off.

JUSTIFIED: CITY PRIMEVAL REVIEW

Thirteen years ago a neo-noir western crime thriller on F/X called Justified aired its series finale. Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) said goodbye to being justified in gunning down the no good scum of Kentucky. Now, streaming as a new mini-series on FX presented by Hulu, Justified: City Primeval has the US Marshall on a man hunt in the mean streets of Detroit. This new run is based on the novel City Primeval by Elmore Leonard. Raylan’s road trip to Florida with his daughter Willa (Vivian Olyphant) is cut short when duty calls. There’s a traffic collision, a murdered judge, a stubborn defence attorney, Armenian mobsters, and one itchy trigger fingered psychopath Clement Mansell (Boyd Holbrook). Everyone is after the dead judge’s little black book with a list of names tied to the corrupt rot enabling the city’s crime infestation. The bar owner Sweetie (Vondie Curtis-Hall) wants a chance at the fortune that passed him by. The defence attorney Carolyn (Aunjanue Ellis) wants to replace the corrupt judges with a black robe and gavel of her own, and Raylan wants to justifiably end Mansel’s killing spree before it puts his own family in Mansel’s crosshairs. Bradly, Matt, Dogget, and Jordan discuss their relationship with the Justified series and how they all feel about the revival series trend. They ponder the relationships between psychopaths and the badges that hunt them down, then pay respects to the many timeless voices of Keith David.

THE MONKEY KING MOVIE REVIEW

You may be familiar with the legend of the Monkey King from the ancient Chinese myth Journey to the West. The tale has been adapted into film, television, books, comics, and music hundreds of times. If you’re somehow not familiar, the story of the Monkey King is an epic adventure filled with supernatural feats, battles with Gods, mythical creatures, and profound lessons that have captivated audiences for centuries. The stories of the cheeky trickster are some of the most enduring and popular in Chinese culture. The newest adaptation comes from Netflix studios and producer Stephen Chow (Kung Fu Hustle). In this iteration of the lore, we see Monkey’s (Jimmy O. Yang) origin and his quest for immortality, facing 100 demons, challenging the gods themselves, and developing a rivalry with the God of the weather, the Dragon King (Bowen Yang). He is accompanied in his journey by his loyal magical weapon, Stick and his assistant Lin (Jolie Hoang-Rappaport), who is a mere pebble in the universe, but also a young girl desperate to save her village. Mindy, Harmoni, Eliot, and T.C. sit down together to discuss this entry into the Journey to the West library, and one of the Squad who knows more about this legend than all of the others combined will tell you exactly how well this adapted the myth.

Mindy Rast-Keenan (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)

Having grown up in Nairobi, Kenya, and being very disappointed at the lack of riding elephants her cartoons had promised her, Mindy spends the majority of her time as a film, theater, and voice over actress in the Austin, Texas area. They still give her money for being on HBO that one time, with her name in the credits spelled wrong. A nerdy geek, this award-winning actress joined One of Us figuring she’d put her summa cum laude BFA acting degree to good use…by judging other people’s acting. In the few seconds she gets to herself, Mindy bakes for charity, knits eccentric plushies, plays original RPG’s with her gamemaster husband, and spends time with her soulmate, Batman.

Harmoni Anderson (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Unstabletop Gaming)

Harmoni is a mermaid-haired, millennial, rum drinking, Section 31, Slytherin (who’s divorced J.K. Rowling) preschool/nursery teacher and multi genre geek who also loves all things film, tv, fashion, makeup, and an embarrassingly huge BTS stan. Like really embarrassing. As in, mention them and then sit back and watch the insanity. Harmoni likes being able to game and talk movies/TV with people that aren’t 3 feet tall or all that demanding of her. Plus she can curse at us and not get fired….so bonus!

Eliot Nelson (Screener Squad, Staff Writer)

Soaked in the soggy rains of Seattle, Eliot developed a love of sci-fi, movies, cartoons, heavy metal, and all of geekdom. Pursuing his passion for the written word, he got his BA from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. He has since worked exclusively in the foodservice industry, like any liberal arts major worth their salt. Eliot wiles away the hours listening to movie reviews, writing his epic sci-fi novel, and consuming as much media as possible. His favorite movies include The Lord of the Rings, City of God, Dawn of the Dead, and Groundhog Day. When not rambling to himself about the ineptness of entertainment executives, Eliot posts infrequently on Twitter and squawks regularly on his podcast The Debasement Tapes.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS SEASON 5 REVIEW

What We Do In The Shadows, everybody’s favorite sitcom about vampires living together on Staten Island, is back for another season of mockumentary-style hijinks. Last season ended with Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), the long suffering familiar being turned into a vampire by someone who is NOT his master, a big taboo in the vampire world. If his master Nandor (Kayvan Novak) finds out, he’ll have no choice but to kill the unfaithful familiar, and then himself. It doesn’t help matters that Guillermo’s new vampire powers are decidedly half-baked. Meanwhile, Lazlo (Matt Berry) offers to help Guillermo by experimenting on his DNA, Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch) runs for public office, Nadja (Natasia Demetriou) tries to break a hex that’s been placed on her, and new roommate The Guide (Kristen Schaal)… well, she just wants the other vampires in the house to like her. There’s a lot going on this season, and it feels like it’s building towards something big for at least one of the characters, but did it measure up to previous installments? Listen to what our undead reviewers Spider-Mike, Kim, and Marco have to say about it!

Marco Noyola (Digital Noise, Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad, Audio Editor)

By day, Marco is a mild-mannered office worker, but by night he is a mild-mannered movie watcher. He does other mild-mannered stuff too.

“You don’t need to follow me. You don’t need to follow anybody!”

Michael Riojas (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)

The man with the ever-changing nicknames. Born in Austin, Riojas was rocketed to Del Rio, Texas, a literal small ville. In his youth, he was bitten by a radioactive… okay, look. Mike is not very good at this whole “talking about himself” thing. But he has been so obsessed with comics, video games, and anime since childhood- that if one has to choose between listening to Joe Quesada or Mike over any obscure Spider-Man trivia, they go to him (or, at least Martin Thomas once said so). He is also a big fan of “Ghostbusters” (he even owns his own jumpsuit and two, that’s right, TWO proton packs!), collects toys and video games, and will defend “Superman IV: The Quest for Peace” if provoked. He lives in Austin with his beloved Dachshund-Maltese and trusted sidekick, Dean. He can also be heard on RageSelect. He can be found on Twitter and Instagram.

Kimberly Brown (Highly Suspect Reviews)

Kimberly wants to live in a world filled with blue telephone boxes, speedsters, and ice dragons but through an ironic twist of fate, she’s stuck in this reality where these wondrous things only exist on page or film. Kim’s perpetual desire to consume sci-fi and fantasy media as a teen led her to the study of illustration/design at university to better understand its creation. Currently an Austin transplant, when she’s not wearing her critic hat you can find her pretending to like hiking, fielding questions about her hair or maybe even enjoying a local brew at the nearest dive bar.
