So ends summer. Nit Picket Podcast #81.
As September begins and everyone starts getting back into the swing of school and the fall season, Aaron and I recount the summer with our Summer Movie Slamdown, where we recount our favorite films, performances, and disappointments of that last 4 months. We also manage to squeeze in discussions of the new Robert Duvall flim, Get Low, and the newest horror mock/doc, The Last Exorcism. Plus, our emmy reactions! Thanks for listening.

Nit Picket Podcast #80, Piranha 3D/The Switch/Lottery Ticket

Because three dimensions are better than two? Nit Picket #80.
Aaron and I take bad movies very seriously and that's why we take on Piranha 3D, starring Adam Scott and Elisabeth Shue, for our main event this week. Tits? Check. Horrible dialogue? Check. Tons of gore? Check. But is it actually worth seeing? We also take time to discuss The Switch and Lottery Ticket, a movie Aaron saw because he loves Terry Crews' dancing (not kidding). We talk about the trailers for Danny Boyle's new flim, 127 Hours, and the new AMC zombie series, The Walking Dead. AMC ftw.

Kieran Culkin ftw. Nit Picket Podcast #79.
One of this week's movies I loved. Another I totally walked out of. Place your bets now.
This week Aaron and I take in the sensory video game assault that is, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, starring Michael Cera and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. I also force Aaron into give us his take on the new swollen balls action flick, The Expendables, and the much smaller indie-crime flick, Animal Kingdom. Trailers, you ask? Why we finally get to take a peak at Black Swan, I'm Still Here, and How Do You Know, the latest from James L. Brooks. Seriously, guys. Go support Scott Pilgrim.

Nit Picket Podcast #78, The Other Guys/Charlie St. Cloud/Step Up 3D

How gay is this episode? Nit Picket #78.
Whatever film "cred" Aaron and I had is smashed against the rocks and shattered into a million pieces as we discuss the newest underground-battle-dance-flick, Step Up 3D. We also check out the new Will Ferrel/Adam Mckay comedy, The Other Guys, and we take our shirts off and take a sail with Zac Efron and his dead brother in Charlie St. Cloud. We discuss a slew of trailers including Enter the Void, The Winning Season, and Jackass 3D. Does Channing Tatum resent not getting the chance to take his acting into the third dimension? I know I would.

Catfish. Real or fake? Nit Picket #77.
I know you all came to the site anticipating our huge blow out discussion of Charlie St. Cloud, starring the Zac "the" Efron who plays catch with his dead brother's ghost (haha). We missed it. For that, I apologize. We'll get to it eventually. This week, we did however manage to discuss Dinner for Schmucks, Life During Wartime, and the Korean thriller, Mother. We also take a look at the trailers for Kenneth Brannagh's take on Thor and the is-it-real-or-is-it-fake Sundance fav, Catfish. Thanks for listening, doll. Now tell your gal pals, will you?

I'm not wearing hockey pads. Nit Picket #76.
Look at those lips. Come on, really look. Now the perfectly defined jaw line and piercing lazer eyes.
How is it that Angelina Jolie can turn being cuffed and arrested in a Timothy McVeigh fashion into total sex? Aaron and I ponder such topics and more as we discuss the new action thriller, Salt, starring Angelina Jolie. We also take a walk though the Nit Picket archives and dig deep to give out a list of Nit Picket approved DVD picks. Some obscure, some really obscure. In the world of trailers we take a peak at Zak Snyder's Sucker Punch, Buried, and Monsters. Did you fart? 'Cause it smells like you totally farted.

In video, bitches. Nit Picket #75.
I was so excited for Inception that I made the trip down to LA for the first ever Nit Picket video episode! We drank, we ate, and we watched Inception, The Kids Are All Right, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, and Terrible Happy. We drank plenty of sake and shared our top 5 movie theater pet peeves. Did I mention this episode is in video? We love all of you for the support and there's plenty more to come. Special thanks to the Fenn family for putting me up and for enduring all of my farts.

Check it out (with Steve Brule, duh). Nit Picket #75.
Holy crap, we talk about a lot of movies today. Aaron mustered the strength to see Predators, Despicable Me, and [REC] 2 all in the same week and he shares his thoughts about each of them with the love and affection that only Nit Picket can provide. We finally get around to discussing the new Duplass brothers film, Cyrus, starring John C. Reilly, Jonah Hill, and nitpicket dream team member, Marisa Tomei. We also discuss, A Single Man, now on DVD and blu-ray. No trailers this week. Too much exciting stuff. Send help.
Get ready for our very special Inception episode and some surprises coming later this week. Help spread the word.

Helen Mirren firing guns ftw. Nit Picket Podcast #73.
This summer is making me hate movies. We just can't catch a break and this week Aaron and I are forced sit through the newest Twilight film, Eclipse, and the latest Shyamalan bomb, The Last Airbender. Aaron gives us his take on the Sundance favorite, Winter's Bone, and we squeeze in a discussion of The White Ribbon, now on DVD/blu-ray. This week in trailers we've got Paranormal Activity 2, RED, and Let Me In. Now go outside and get some sun, nerds.

Nit Picket Podcast #72, Knight and Day/Grown Ups

Nine times eight. Nit Picket Podcast #72.
The Summer of Meh rages on! Tom Cruise throws his hat back into the summer blockbuster game with the new action/rom com, Knight and Day, co-starring Cameron Diaz and Peter Sarsgaard. I give my take on Grown Ups, a surprisingly uneventful and pleasantly fluffy time with Adam Sandler and Kevin James. We discuss the trailers for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Little Fockers, and the teaser of the upcoming David Fincher/Aaron Sorking collaboration, The Social Network. If you aren't excited yet, you should be. Stay gold.
