For Larry it was a weekend of firsts! First time tabling, first time out West, first time flying! Denver Zine Fest 2016 brings our hosts together for the very first time. Did they take the fest by storm? Or do slow moments cause self loathing and second guessing? How does one determine a successful event? Does Larry drink the Kool-Aid? </div>

We've already seen Batman, Superman, Iron Man and Captain America on the big screen this year, so this week we move to the small screen and take look back the at the spectacular superhero season that's winding down on television. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
DC's Arrow-verse has left us with lots of exciting teasers for next season while SHIELD's biggest nemesis seems to be the Nielson ratings. What direction will the Flash and Legends of Tomorrow finales take the Arrow-verse? Is Netflix the true future of Marvel's small screen offering? Is Gotham still on?</div>

Where do you get your ideas? Once you have your idea, then what? Larry and Bruce explain their approach to the Creative Process. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Paper, pen and ink or digital tablets and stylus? How do analog and digital approaches factor into the process. Bruce and Larry go digital at different points in their processes and for different reasons.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They tackle how they come up with ideas, and how they develop them and put them in front of an audience. Is there one right way to create? Is there one right REASON to create?</div>

Captain America vs Iron Man! The 13<sup>th</sup> film of the Marvel
Cinematic Universe is here! Captain America: Civil War takes its
story from the 2006 Marvel Comics crossover event and 7 issue
miniseries.
</div>
<div class="western" style="line-height: 115%; margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Bruce and Larry contrast and compare that miniseries with the events
of the film. Why are our heroes at odds? What brings these allies
to the brink of war? They look at the causes of the conflict in both
the comics and the film. </div>
<div class="western" style="line-height: 115%; margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Which medium tells a better story? Can you
get a good movie with a cast featuring a dozen established heroes
while introducing two new ones? How does Bruce REALLY feel about
comics crossovers and events? What is a Stabbity Jones?</span></div>

It's a little bit Go Bots, it's a little bit Rocky 4! The Cold War heats up in this post-apocalyptic Cult Film where war is over and giant robots battle to settle international diputes. It's Robot Jox, from 1989 starring, Gary Graham, Anne-Marie Johnson, and Paul Koslo. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At listener request (<a href="https://twitter.com/TheGreatNateO">Thanks Nate O</a>!) Bruce and Larry take a look at this film, and try to figure out if it's a kid's movie adults can enjoy or an adult movie kids can enjoy?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They look at the special effects, the script, what they liked and what they loathed. Is the stop motion animation up to snuff? Is it dated or does it hold up? Was Robot Jox to late to exploit the Cold War? Why is a singular hot dog one of the high points of the movie? Find out the answers to those questions and more in Episode 132 of the Media Montage Podcast!</div>

This week Bruce and Larry take a look at a different kind of movie. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Documentaries are non-fictional narratives on hundreds of topics from comics, to comedy to history to movies themselves. They take a look at narrative bias and narrator ego, and how those affect documentary films. They discuss favorite docs in the genre, and they talk about various sub-genres of documentaries.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When should a film maker insert themselves into their story? Should they ever? What about sequels to successful docs? Larry finds one he doesn't care for? Will that documentary on the Roger Corman Fantastic Four movie ever come out? Find out the answers to those questions and more in Episode 131 of the Media Montage Podcast!</div>

What's a zine? It's a small do-it-yourself publication, self published, on any number of topics, from the extremely personal to general interest. How do you make a zine? Comics, collage, poetry, essays and rants fill the pages of thousands of zines. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This week Larry and Bruce take a look at the 2006 book <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Whatcha-Mean-Whats-Esther-Watson/dp/0618563156">Whatcha Mean, 'What's a Zine?</a></i>' by Esther Watson with Illustrations by Mark Todd featuring contributions by numerous other zinesters. We look at this book as a source of inspiration, how-to on content, format, distribution and more. They talk about the history of zines from the Underground Comics to the Riot Grrrl movement of the 90s. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They also discuss zines as folk-art, preparations for the 2016 Denver Zinefest, and the wave of inspiration brought on by this remarkable book in episode 129 of the Media Montage Podcast!</div>

Superman returned in 2006's <i>Superman Returns</i>...but he didn't return for long. With the 10th anniversary of this Bryan Singer film Bruce and Larry decided to examine this odd entry in the canon of superhero films. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth, James Marsden, and Kevin Spacey star in this not-quite-a-sequel to the Richard Donner <i>Superman</i> films. Superman has been gone for five years, and returns to a surprising new world. Heavily influenced by the earlier <i>Superman</i> films, this movie attempts to look back to the past, while trying to pave the way for a new series of films. This reboot attempt didn't lead to any new films, but instead we got Man of Steel in another reboot in 2013 and <i>Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice</i>, which comes out today. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Why did <i>Superman Returns</i> fail to return in another sequel? What works with this film? What doesn't? How much nostalgia is too much? Which actor would have been better in a marquis role? All that and more in episode 128 of the Media Montage Podcast!</div>

Imagine Earth is doomed. Imagine the elite masters of the world know this and hatch a series of schemes to save themselves.

Oscar winners, Blockbuster Mega-stars, and respected film veterans all got their start somewhere. TV movies, commercials, soap operas, and schlock horror have all served as the proving grounds for some of Hollywood's biggest stars. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This week Bruce and Larry take a look at the humble beginnings of the titans of the screen. We look at some our our favorite early roles of today's biggest stars. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Jack Black pitching video games? Brad Pitt and Julianne Moore slumming it in the soaps? And who got lost in the storm tunnels when he became obsessed with Role Playing Games in an early role?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Some Related Podcasts and LinksThe <i>X-Files </i>made its return to television last night for a six episode limited engagement. The show has certainly had a massive influence on the conspiracy topics Larry and I are interested in, and have covered on the Media Montage Podcast over the last few years. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilT5QyZGNUTPq4Dh_hbfoFrdPhL64dZp5A_loVdBBjzVVlulqqyKrdz7YkOlTxl3QKLVJgyQQIQUV_FGo0VT0xXwA5p5ljM2FCEl-0zRKYOdBsL1uEtfENbJrztaCqxabF6htGfeCm-PY/s1600/Believe_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilT5QyZGNUTPq4Dh_hbfoFrdPhL64dZp5A_loVdBBjzVVlulqqyKrdz7YkOlTxl3QKLVJgyQQIQUV_FGo0VT0xXwA5p5ljM2FCEl-0zRKYOdBsL1uEtfENbJrztaCqxabF6htGfeCm-PY/s320/Believe_1.jpg" width="235" /></a></div>
<br />
The episode, titled <i><a href="http://www.fox.com/watch/607308867569/7756658688">My Struggle</a></i>, hit on many of the topics that have risen to prominence in the conspiracy field since the original run show went of the air in 2002.<br />
<br />
The episode touched on Conspiratainment, Nazi scientists, ARVs (Alien Reproduction Vehicles), 911/False Flag theories, reverse engineered alien technology and the episode strongly hinted at the Breakaway Civilization theory.<br />
<br />
Here are some Media Montage Podcast episodes that can inform you on some of those topics:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2013/10/media-montage-21-conspiratainment.html">Episode 21: Conspiratainment</a> - embodied in Joel McHale's Tad O'Malley character, an Alex Jones style Conspira-Tainer.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2014/09/media-montage-podcast-70-operation.html">Episode 70: Operation Paperclip</a> - Nazi scientists brought to the US post WW2, who found themselves intimately involved in the origins of the CIA and NASA.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2015/05/media-montage-podcast-101-introduction.html">Episode 101: Introduction to the New World Order</a> - Overview of the plots to implement a single, dictatorial World System instituted by sinister cabals.<br />
<br />
While Larry and I haven't covered <a href="http://disinfo.com/2013/07/the-alien-reproduction-vehicle-blueprints-of-mark-mccandlish/">ARV</a>s or <a href="http://authors.exopaedia.org/edkomarek/chapter-03.html">Breakaway Civilization</a>...yet...Here's a good presentation about those some of those theories from Walter Bosley of <a href="http://secretspaceprogram.org/">secretspaceprogram.org</a>:<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SmwKh2gnzxs" width="560"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
Get yourself up to speed on some of the weirdness mentioned in last night's episode. It's cool to have the X-Files back, even for a limited run, and I can't wait to see what the next five episodes have in store.<br />
<br />
The Truth is STILL Out There!<br />

<i>(Apologies for Bruce's audio quality in parts of this episode. A last minute Skype update was forced right before recording and some settings defaulted resulting in distorted audio.)</i><br />
<br />
1986 was a great movie year! 30 years ago saw a year of fantastic films, it was a movie year that's gotten a lot of love at the Media Montage Podcast.<br />
<br />
We've looked at <i><a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2015/07/media-montage-podcast-111-boy-who-could.html">The Boy Who Could Fly</a>,<a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2013/09/media-montage-14-from-beyond.html"> From Beyond</a>, <a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2013/10/media-montage-18-maximum-overdrive.html">Maximum Overdrive</a>, <a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2015/03/media-montage-podcast-93-short-circuit.html">Short Circuit</a></i> and of course, <i><a href="http://mediamontagepodcast.blogspot.com/2013/08/media-montage-6-never-too-young-to-die.html">Never Too Young to Die</a></i>, from the heart of the Reagan era. <br />
<br />
In this episode Bruce and Larry take a big-picture look at the films of 1986. Techno-paranoia, the Cold War, Australia and the Military Industrial Complex all had dedicated feature films in '86 as well as that lovable sociopath Ferris Bueller in episode 123 of the Media Montage Podcast!<br />

Another year has come and gone and Bruce and Larry take a look back at 2015.<br />
<br />
What films, television and comics did they enjoy most? Which blockbusters delivered and which disappointed? What hidden treasures did you miss last year? Which should be avoided? <br />
<br />
<i>Star Wars, Age of Ultron, Kingsmen</i> and <i>Mad Max</i> get a visit at the cinema. They watched <i>Ash</i>, <i>Scream Queens, Narcos</i>, and lots of superheroes on TV. Take a look back at the media landscape of 2015 in episode 122 of the Media Montage Podcast!<br />

It's pretty easy to maintain peace for a thousand years when you have mind control powers in your diplomatic toolbox. Bruce and Larry talk politics and society...in the Star Wars universe! <i>The Force Awakens</i> is right around the corner, and we decided to take a look at the politics and societies of the Empire, the Republic, how one led to the other, and where that might leave us at the start of a new trilogy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Are droids essentially chattel slaves? What about the moral implications of the Clone Army of the Republic. The Jedi and the Republic were architects of their own destruction, but did Jango Six Pack on Tatooine really even notice the change in power? What are the practical implications of competing religious sects influencing Galactic governance? Are Death Stars really good economic or even domestic policy? </div>
<br />
All that and more in Episode 121 an all Star Wars episode of the Media Montage Podcast!<br />

Every November thousands of would-be novelist settle in for NaNoWriMo, attempting to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. Bruce is taking on the challenge this year, and so he and Larry decided to discuss Creative Challenges. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
NaNoWriMo, 24 Hour Comic Book Day, 48 Hour Film Festivals and other timed creative events are explored. Are such challenges a plus or minus to the creative process? Does it all depend on the creator? What about simpler challenges like writing prompts or random title? Can format constraints challenge creators in other ways? </div>

What's the deal with zombies?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
White Zombie, from 1932 is widely considered the first zombie film. Since then hundreds of zombie movies, tv shows and comics have come out with dozens of different takes on these popular monsters. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
From mind controlled slaves out of Voodoo legend to the living dead of George Romero, zombies are an important part of the pop culture landscape. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

This week Bruce and Larry take a visit the World of Mad Max. They look at all four films featuring the Road Warrior Max Rockatansky. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They explore the themes of a world gone mad, a world clinging to the last vestiges of civilization, a world where the Halls of Justice are literally decaying. They look at parallels to 70s Horror, the idea of enduring myths and legends, the power of stories, as well as unreliable narrators. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When does Fury Road take place on Max's time line? Will we get more Mad Max in the future, and what will that mean? All that and more in Episode 117 of the Media Montage Podcast! It's a Mad Mad Mad Max World!</div>
