Under The Scope | Movie Review: Birdman

Oscar season may have kicked off with Michael Keaton’s new film, Birdman. And your Scope crew (sans Adam) are right on it, reviewing the heck out of the movie.

Birdman tells the tale of a washed up movie star who gambles everything on a Broadway play in which he wrote, directed, and starred. And, just for fun, he’s being followed/taunted by Birdman, the superhero he played (with great financial success) twenty years earlier. Yeah, this guy might be a little nuts.

That’s just one part of this complicated and intriguing film. But the real question is this: did The Scope like it? Well, get to clicking and find out already!

The Scope Birdman movie review is waiting for a Birdman song parody (done to the tune of Spoonman, of course.)

Episode 192: Better Know The Band Lesser Knowns

It’s been four years since the band Lesser Knowns appeared on The Scope. A lot’s happened since then (like four whole seasons of Big Brother) so it seemed about time to check in with the fellas from Massachusetts. Find out about their new music, their songwriting process, and which one of the guys bought an N*SYNC album. It’s compelling (and potentially embarrassing) stuff, to be sure.

Even without Adam on board for this show (he’s probably too busy practicing his choreographed wedding hip-hop routine) it’s a winner. Get to watching/listening to it now, won’t you?

The Scope episode 192 wonders if there is such a thing as a Dended Washington.

For more from Lesser Knowns, check out their website, listen to their music, and like them on Facebook.

Episode 191: Are There Raisins in the Carrot Cake?

Episode 191 of The Scope puts host Adam under the gun with tons of wedding reception talk. Did you know he’s going to have four kinds of cake? Well, now you do. Tune in to find out even more fun facts about his upcoming life-changing event.

If that weren’t enough, your Scope hosts review a handful of new Fall TV Shows! From superheroes to scorpions to guys named ‘Dre, they’ve got you covered. Someday, all of those shows will be available for home release, right?

The Scope episode 191 can’t wait for an ultra-serious Tin Cup film.

Under The Scope | Movie Review: The Judge

Downey Jr. and Duvall. Jared and Shane. Two epic pairs…one pair acted in the film The Judge, the other pair reviewed it. Put all four men together in one Scope movie review…well, now you’ve got magic. But does that magic translate into a watchable movie? Listen/watch and find out.

(PS no it does not.)

The Scope The Judge movie review doesn’t mind sitting in the V.I.P. section at the movie theater.

Episode 190: You Are The Wurst

The Scope returns with an all news edition of the show. Hot topics include: cabin to cabin moving, the medical equivalent of Dippin’ Dots, and squatting mongoose sitting butterfly. If that makes no sense to you, feel free to digest the latest Scope to get in the know and be as cool as the coolest kid!

The Scope episode 190 really needs a shucking glove.
