August 27, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

Our long summer movie journey is at an end, Scope faithful. But have Jared and Shane saved the best for last? To find out, you’ll have fire up an internet-capable device and digest the  final summer movie review of 2014. Of course(?) we’re talking about The November Man.

This spy-thriller, headlined by former Bond Pierce Brosnan, tells the convoluted story of spies, spying, and getting hit whilst running around blind corners.

Where’s Miss. Moneypenny when you need her?

Episode 186: Scope Madness – Robin Williams Movie Edition

August 25, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

The Scope crew returns with a new show and a new look on an old bit.

This time around, Jared, Adam, and Shane (along with the help of bracketological master, Al) take on Scope Madness, but with the films of Hollywood superstar and recently-departed Robin Williams. It’s a fitting tribute only your Scope podcast could pull off.

And, in a weird twist of something, Adam’s watching the old 1980’s G.I.Joe cartoon. Naturally,  he’s got a few things to say about it…most of revolving around Shipwreck’s talking parrot, Polly. And that sexy Destro.

The Scope episode 186 is concerned with the redemption of said same Mr. Pan.

Episode 185: Tiberius Yoshisaurus Something Japanese

August 18, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

In this latest edition of The Scope, Adam reluctantly discusses a major announcement he never really wanted announced, Shane tries to get into the sound effect game with marginal success, and Jared ponders websites that might be found in the Star Wars Internet.

Oh, and there’s some news, too. One third of it isn’t depressing.

The Scope episode 185 knows a shark eventually lets go of the prey it is eating….timing!

Under The Scope | Movie Review: The Expendables 3

August 14, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

The third installment in Sylvester Stallone’s action franchise is here, and its definitely number three in a series. Many of your favorites are back along with some new recruits and several more old guys who happen to have never been in one of these things before. Does the film soar, or is it true to its name? Jared and guest host Earl will decide.

The Scope The Expendables 3 review has to get to da choppa.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: Let’s Be Cops

August 11, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

In the latest Scope summer movie review, Jared and Shane take on Let’s Be Cops, the Jake Johnson/Damon Wayans Jr. New Girl spinoff movie.  Well, it isn’t exactly a spinoff…but you can’t blame us for our confusion.

Let’s Be Cops is about two lovable losers that pretend to be real police officers…and get into all sorts of hijinks and shenanigans. (Like you didn’t see that coming, right?) While the plot might be predictable, did Jake, Damon, and director Luke Greenfield put enough other great things into the movie to garner some Scope love?

Watch and/or listen to the latest Scope movie review and find out!

The Scope Let’s Be Cops review missed Winston, Jess, and Schmidt.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014)

August 7, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

Turtle Power is back on the silver screen, courtesy of producer Michael Bay. This movie based on a cartoon based on a comic book blasts your favorite Renaissance-themed reptiles at you in 3D while also giving you all the April O’Neil (Megan Fox) you can handle. But these Turtles have a secret (hint: it has nothing to do with ooze). Will the Foot Clan burn New York to the ground? Maybe.

The Scope Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles review never has to hold back a mighty yell of “COWABUNGA!”

Episode 184: Three Guys, Two Books, and Two Podcasts

August 4, 2014  |  Posted by: The Scope

What pop culture things should you, the loyal Scope fan, be into at this moment? Jared, Adam, and Shane take the entirety of episode 184 to tell you. (And not one TV show, music act, or video game made the list. Are your Scope hosts growing up?)

It’s a lot of talk about a bunch of cool things. So listen to (or watch) the latest Scope, and then blindly seek out the stuff your Scope hosts demanded you check out. It’s a simple formula with a great outcome. Everyone ends up a winner. Including America.

Especially America.

The Scope episode 184 is big data in action.
