Nutty Bites 123: Intro to Ghibli – Ponyo

Nutty Bites 123: Intro to Ghibli - PonyoPonyo is a bit out of the viewing order for us because it happened to be playing in theatres. If a film is in theatres and we can see it we will always jump the que. Better yet, this tim Tek and I were in VA visiting Jen and Jason, so we all got to go to the threatre together. This is the first time we had that chance. We have watched Princess Mononoke together, but that was in a hotel while Tek and I felt their eyes on us watching our reactions. A theatre is much better.

This also happens to be the 10th anniversary for Ponyo’s release. So that is extra special. Spoiler for the podcast, we loved this movie. It was pure joy. If you haven’t seen it, see it. It is worth the watch, You can watch it with anyone in your life, no matter the age.

Nutty Bites: Geek Toys

Nutty Bites: Geek Toys

Geek Toys are near and dear to many hearts. Nuchtchas, Tek, Podcasting’s Rich Sigfrit, and Jason Banks, discuss the ever changing world of toys. The closure of the biggest toy store in north america, ToysRUs, isn’t that much of a shock to geeks. They ignored the culture that could have helped, and ignored how other companies like ThinkGeek, GameStop, Hot Topic, and others have adapted to deal with the reality of online sales and getting geeks the thing that makes them squee.

Nutty Bites: Book or Movie?

Nutty Bites: Book or Movie?

Book or Movie? It’s often said that the movie is never as good as the book, but sometimes that isn’t the case. Sometimes the book is better, and sometimes the movie is better. And sometimes the book and movie aren’t even the same story so why bother calling it the same? Why not just file the serial numbers off and make a new thing? Hugh, Jason, Jen, and Jay, join Nuchtchas and Tek to discuss both books and movies.

Nutty Bites 120: This Podcast is not Rated

Nutty Bites 120: This Podcast is not Rated

This Podcast is not Rated is where Nutty and Jason talk about rating systems. MPAA, ESRB, Music Ratings, TV ratings and warnings, Podcast Ratings, all of it. They talk about what they like, what they don’t like, and how we could make it better. Spoiler alert, we want more information in the ratings and more transparency. We both seemed to be able to argue all sides of this argument and left without being able to answer all the questions we came up with.

Nutty Bites 117: Intro to Ghibli – Howl’s Moving Castle

Nutty Bites 117: Intro to Ghibli - Howl's Moving CastleHowl’s Moving Castle is like if Terry Gilliam directed a Ghibli movie and it starred David Bowie. We loved this film in all of it’s surreal nature and appreciated its art movieness. This for Tek and Nutty succeeded where Princess Mononoke failed.
