I still don't understand why they decided to go with classic arcade games of all things, it seems like it clashes with the style of the rest of the game. However, I like classic arcade games, so I put some money down. I do wish that the space minotaur shirt wasn't $115, cause I want it, but I don't $115 want it.

That's a good point, but on The Cowboys it didn't bother me that they hadn't read the book. Here, I think, is the difference: The commentary for The Cowboys mostly approaches the movie from the context of it being a western and thus them being knowledgeable about the book wasn't nearly as important as them being knowledgeable about other westerns. For Scott Pilgrim they spend a lot of time talking about the movie in the context of it being an adaption from a comic, so none of them having actually read the comic felt particularly egregious. They might have been able to avoid it by not talking about the comic at all, but being an adaption from a comic is a significant part of that film's identity, so avoiding talking about it probably would have felt really awkward.

I'm still kinda mad at them for doing the Scott Pilgrim movie without having a single person who'd read the comics on the panel. Instead they just kinda speculated about what the comics might be like the whole time and the commentary suffers for it.

Teague, this album better not turn out to be another Tydirium.

I'm not saying they should have added Nova, that would have been a mistake, but what they did do doesn't really work either, and as long as we're fucking up, I'd rather we got Nova. What would be better would be something along the lines of what Squiggly_P was suggesting. I also think it would have been fine to have some Nova Centurions flying around in the battle so if they do want to introduce Nova later it would make more sense. I think people are familiar enough with the Marvel universe by now that we can have some superpowered guys in the background without too much explanation.

Thanos is a dick and no one likes him, even his adopted daughters, but he's powerful and scary so people do what he says, unless they have a way to protect themselves from him (like the MacGuffin orb).

Agreed, and if they weren't trying to build up to the infinity gauntlet they could cut Thanos and most of this subplot from the film, and the film would probably be better for it. But Marvel's gotta Marvel, and as long as the rest of the movie is good I'm willing to put up with it.

These are pretty good. Really digging the second one. You should make more.

Hey Teague, look at this guy, he actually released some music. 

You just nostalgia'd me so hard. Now I want to play Yoda Stories again, even though it kinda sucked.

I didn't like this one as much as the previous ones, for what I think are a couple of reasons. One is that this topic doesn't hold as much interest to me as previous ones, which is fine. Another is that it feels like you used these docs as a frame to interview Jessica, and thus the podcast was more about her and the docs kinda fell by the wayside. While I'm sure Jessica is a very nice gal and worth interviewing, I'd rather the focus was more on the docs themselves.
A sub point to this is that previously when you guys talked about a doc, one of you would give a brief summary of the doc before you got too far into the discussion. This is super handy for someone like me who doesn't watch a lot of docs but likes to listen to you talk about them. In fact, most of the docs I've seen recently I saw because of this show and because the summary caught my interest enough to cause me to go watch it. Somehow those summaries didn't seem to happen this time and as a result I felt very lost for most of the discussion and still don't really know what either of these docs are about.

Just my two cents.

I know from experience that this seems to work. Although it apparently takes much longer than six months to make an album. I'll help you annoy him though, 'cause I rather enjoyed this.

The discussion about mkeith's line return habits reminded me of when the whole forum was hard constrained to 600px wide. It was such a pain in the ass to read that I actually got off my ass and convinced Teague to let me fix it. Now I kinda wish it would stretch out to 1200px instead of just 1000, but then it wouldn't line up with the header all nice and that would bother me so I'd have to fix that too and it all starts to sound like more work then it's worth. Non of this is particularly relevant, but it looks like we're fairly off topic anyway.
