Frank is interviewed on the “Battleship Pretension” podcast, the hosts of which clearly did exactly zero research ahead of time. This leads to very familiar questions being asked. But Frank himself hasn’t offered his perspective on these often-asked questions, so it’s nice to get that. It’s also nice to get his take on the formation of Cinematic Titanic.
The interview does break a little news: Frank says they are looking at creating a pilot of “Cartoon Dump,” saying it might be good for a channel like Adult Swim. We agree! The podcast then wanders off into a discussion of bad movies and bad TV in general, and Frank offers some very erudite thoughts. I can’t believe we haven’t done this one!
Next weekend at Dragon*Con, Bill and Trace will take part in a panel that I guarantee will take place in too small a room: “Crow vs. Crow,” in which the two actors that portrayed Crow Tiberious (“the”) Robot will discuss the character they played. In preparation for that, Trace recently tweeted a request for suggestions of the most memorable Crow moments (so they can put together a video featuring them). I was going to tweet back with a link to the Weekend Discussion Thread that SURELY (don’t call me Shirley!) we must have done! Then I checked and realized we hadn’t done one! So, to help them out, let’s settle on the best Crow moments. You get to choose TWO and TWO ONLY moments from the Trace years and two from the Bill years. Me: For the Trace years I’d go with the “I don’t get you” bit from “Monster-A-Go-Go” and “Am I qualified?” from “King Dinosaur.” From the Bill years: “Turkey Volume Guessing Man” from “Riding with Death” and “Mike becomes a werecrow” from “Werewolf.” What are your picks? Just a couple of weeks until Cinematic Titanic’s three-night stand at the Lakeshore Theater in Chicago.
To quote a scary clown chimpanzee I once saw: Get your tickets here! Get your tickets here! David Hill of Examiner.Com interviews Mike.
