Thor Spoilercast
by Mc on May.04, 2011, under Avengers, Podcasts, Spoilercast
What madness is this!!? A second podcast within a single week!? Well Gavin and I couldn’t let Thor pass without having a no hold barred, cage match discussion of the film, the plot, the characters, the effects, character arcs, who lives, who dies, everything!
Hence we bring you our first separate SPOILERcast. If you’ve not seen Thor yet then we recommend that you DO NOT listen to this podcast until after you have seen it, lest you ruin your viewing pleasaure.
Once you have seen Thor relive the movie with us and let us know what you think of Asgard’s mightiest by emailing us at podcast@mcyapandfries.com or sending us your comments via the form available at the “contact us” link above (or click here )
Enjoy the show!

Behold the Mighty Thor Frog!
by Mc on May.03, 2011, under Podcasts

Seriously?
This week we review, what else, but “Thor”, the next Marvel hero to jump from the comic book page to the big screen. For those of you worried about such things, our review of Thor in THIS podcast will be completely spoiler free, as we have prepared a separate Thor spoiler-cast, where we discuss the movie, in detail covering plot details of the film, which I’ll put up in a day or too once everyone has had a chance to see the movie.
I think I can fairly say that it’s not a spoiler that Thor Frog over there there is NOT in the movie. He’s just an incredibly dumb thing that we wanted to share
As for the rest of the show we’ve got news of Bill and Ted 3, rumours that Arnie may be back again for “Terminator:Retirement”, tales of the the apparent rivalry between Steve McQueen and Bruce Lee and much much more. All the trailers and pics we mention should be covered by the show notes below, let me know if I’ve missed something, enjoy!
Show Notes:
- First behind the scenes footage from “The Hobbit” , from Peter Jackson himself
- “Rise of the planet of the Apes” Trailer
- “Troll Hunter” Trailer
- Latest “Transformers 3” Trailer

Shoplifting your dreams
by Mc on Jan.23, 2011, under Podcasts
“Two podcasts in a single week after over a month of silence are you are you kidding me!!!?â€Â
No, we’re not.
Gavin’s going top be away next week, so we thought we’d use what little time he has to have a few beers (and we ended up recording a podcast).
This week we’ve got news on what we can expect trailer wise from superbowl Sunday, updates on even more pictures from X-Men: First Class and Spider-man as well as Judge Dredd shooting in South Africa amongst others.
As for reviews, this week we review awards season darling “The Kids are Alrightâ€Â, Bansky’s street art “documentary†(or is it?) “Exit through the Giftshopâ€Â, romantic comedy “Going the distance†starring Justin Long and Drew Barrymore, and quirky UK supernatural drama “Skeletonsâ€Â.
Throw in some surreal talk of dreaming, shoplifting and great British sitcoms and you’ve got yourself quite a show. Enjoy!
Show Notes:
- Magneto and Xavier xmen first class action pics
- Spidey out for a jog
- On Yer Bike Dredd
- Trailer for the demented “Rubber”
