TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. "So, it's about this guy who escapes from Hell and goes on a rampage to save his granddaughter from some guys and he drives a car all over the place. It's CRAZY!"

A few weeks ago, the Film Pigs recorded what could only be considered their finest, wittiest, most insightful, and tightest podcast ever. Then, GarageBand crashed and ate the whole thing.

This episode, the Pigs explore the role of The Leading Lady, expose c...

So we got these fancy new microphones that look like little silver thermoses and spent about 3 hours huddled in front of Falk's Mac trying to get them to work in GarageBand, because we're professionals. We think the result speaks for itself: our self-centered ramblings sound so much better! This episode, the Pigs use their new equipment to discuss Science Fiction in movies. Plus, news, Movie Jail,...

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. Here's a curveball: the Film Pigs do an alternate DVD commentary for a movie they absolutely LOVE*. We do an admirable job of actually talking about the movie instead of quietly watching or just reciting every single line as it's spoken (although some of that is involuntary, like breathing or growing nose hair). Joining us...

This week is all about the Academy Awards, which we're sure no one has ever heard of before.

TO SYNC WITH MOVIE: Start this commentary 10 seconds after starting movie. Some kids grow up wanting to be a policeman, a fireman, or an astronaut. Not Dieter Laser . He looked at the state of mad scientism in the world and said "NEIN!" Frankenstein's monster was great and all, but the creature was missing two critical elements: somebody attached to his butt and face. Herr Laser corrects this rook...
