Believe it or not, we still have MegaCon 2009 video footage we’re editing and hoping to post before it’s so old that people don’t even remember going to that convention. In all seriousness, we at PTG are working hard to improve our turnaround times as far as video coverage, especially in regards to the footage [...]

 

 PTG Episode 15 Hour 2: What Happened to Hour 1? [57:03m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (42)

Yup, I’m a dumbass. (Note that when something GOOD happens here at PTG, it is written up in the blog with the ‘royal’ WE. But when something bad happens, it’s all on me. Thus it has been, thus it shall ever be.)
Many thank-yous to those who attended the live broadcast of PTG last Saturday night, [...]

 

 PTG Episode 14 Hour 2: Slackin' WITH 'The Man' [52:15m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (51)

PTG Episode 14 Hour 2 kicks off with a clip from a ‘just-eh’ Marvel movie, Daredevil–yeah, the one with Ben Affleck, THAT one. Thing is, this clip isn’t in the movie–its an outtake from the DVD’s gag reel, highlighting Jon Favreau’s improv skills. I think it’s funny, certainly, but it does lose something without the [...]

 

 PTG Episode 13 (Hour 1): SyFy Silliness [54:58m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (46)

Hour 1 of Prime Time Geek Episode 13 starts off with a drop we’ve used before, from the 90’s action classic Tango & Cash. Warner Bros. really could have spruced up the cover box for this one by, you know, adding Teri Hatcher to the cover. Ahhh Teri Hatcher in 1989 … no, scratch that. [...]

Hour 2 of Prime Time Geek Episode 12 is ALL about Marvel Comics!
Actually, no, that’s a lie. Two-thirds of this hour of Episode 12 is all about Marvel, specifically:

Invincible Iron Man #11, written by Matt Fraction and Salvador Larocca;
Marvel Studio’s revised schedule of films being produced and released through 2012, including Iron Man 2, Thor, [...]

Here’s Part 3 of the highlight video from the DC Universe Panel at MegaCon back on February 28, 2009 – at about the 3:00 mark, after slightly alarming Dan Didio with the microphone I’m pointing toward the dais, I get my question for the panel in. Back on January 21 I wrote an entry here [...]

Here’s Part 2 of the footage covering the DC Universe panel, containing lots of preview tidbits about Jimmy Palmiotti’s work on Jonah Hex and the upcoming Power Girl, George Perez talking about “loosening up” on Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds in order to get the books out faster, Ethan Van Sciver inviting everyone who [...]

At last, the moment at least I’VE been waiting for now for a few weeks, ever since MegaCon 2009 ended back on March 1st, has arrived. Over the next week Prime Time Geek will bring you highlights from the video footage we shot over Friday and Saturday, February 27th and 28th, respectively, beginning with the [...]

 

 PTG Episode 11 (Hour 1): Mad Mario's Creed [58:32m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (46)

Mad Mario the Assassin, and PTG’s High Lord of Home Theater, joins me for both hours of Prime Time Geek this week, and though his Assassin’s Creed costume (pictured above) is certainly scary in its attention to detail, as you can plainly see, I lived to tell the tale. In all seriousness, it’s a GREAT [...]

 

 PTG Episode 10 (Hour 1): Chatting with Legends [58:50m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (67)

Both Hour 1 and Hour 2 of PTG Episode 10 kick off with clips from the classic (at least in my mind) Kevin Smith drama Chasing Amy, because in all honesty I couldn’t think of any other movies I’d seen that captured the hilarity often found at comic book conventions quite like Smith did in [...]
