    Awesome podcast. It was great to see Dena on the show. And thanks again for asking one of my questions; I really appreciate it.

    He sure did, Fluffyman. He sure did. Other than that this was a great episode of TA. Great to hear from Dena. Looking forward to Mickey next week!

    [color=green]I agree with Dena, I hated the Silent Hill movie, it's another example of VG movies done wrong, It was very interesting to listen to her on TA thanks a lot, BTW Angry Joe and Rollo T need to have a screaming match more often, that was hilarious.

    The last airbender movie can suck it, I own all three chapters on dvd and that movie spits on the cartoon.[/color]

    The only thing that could increase the stupidity of the TLA is if Jesse McCarthy didn't drop out of the role of Prince Zuko. =_= Now to move on and stock up on rabid skunks to send Mr. Shamalamadingdongditch continues on with his dream of doing parts 2 and 3.

    All Transmission Awesome entries should end with incoherent outbursts from now on.

    It's nice to see Dena up on the show today, as well as the mention of The Arnold-Off animation.

    Also, Angry Joe lived up to his name tonight... and I wonder if Spoony will ever consider listening to Angry Joe's suggestion for Avatar: The Last Airbender show.

    Well, that was a miscalculation, Joe. Now everybody knows how to troll the hell out of you. :P

    I, like alot of people, felt Psyconauts got the short end of the success stick. I'd love to see a decent sequel.

    And while it's true that modern horror movies have stagnated a bit, you have to remember that old horror movies could be laughably bad too. Do I even need to give examples?

    Runaways. That's the canceled series I'm most angry about.

    Yay Dena's finally on and telling the truth about the damn Silent Hill movie! ;)

    I don't think Eureka is that bad (granted, I've just begun watching it). And Sean, sounds like you were trollin' Joe by the end. :D
    Chris, did you actually play Sonic Chronicles, or are you just basing your opinion off of the reviews of others?

    You people make me ashamed. Ashamed!

    None of you would have protested for Shenmue.

    Joe don't cancel you're cable yet! Nickelodeon just announced a couple of days ago that a sequal series to Avatar is in the works and going to air next year called "Avatar: The Legend Of Korra". Something the original show creators are working on and are excited for while trying to forget that the Last Airbender Life Action movie ever exisited (they can't outright proclaim they're hatred for the series online or anything but you can tell when they're questioned about it they either want to move on or they're biting they're tounge as to not have to comment on it).

    It was so cool to get to hear Dena's interview. I just love all her work. Something about how her voice is. So appealing to just listen to.

    I can't believe they didn't promote her site!

    I don't really have a site, other than my YouTube channel. I contribute to DebasedToThis.org, but it's not really MY site.

    I probably should have mentioned it when they asked if I had anything to plug, but I didn't think about it, which is my fault, not theirs.

    I feel so bad for Joe, after realizing how awesome avatar is after watching that piece of shit movie
    P.S. when I heard they didn't intend to bring over the jump stars games, given the chance I would have cosplayed with my friends and had a fight outside the office of the localization team of whoever made the games :evil:
    P.P.S. Paw, to make up for this week, next time you must call him floccinaucinihilipilifica tious joe
    (yes that is a real word.)

    I loved Flashforward. I wouldn't have gone out and fainted but I expressed my desire to have it brought back through petitions and polls. There was a reasonable scientific explanation for the blackout, I liked the characters, and the story, while it has its flaws, was great overall. It also had an amazing cliffhanger, which is why the fans are so angry about it getting cancelled.

    I recommend you go see "Splice"...then again my degree meddled in Genetics so maybe it appealed more to me. I thought they did a really good job with the CG and with developing the character of the genetically-modified- creature. There is one part, though, where 1/5 of the audience walked out...I think they were expecting a less cerebral movie. If you understand the character motivations, you won't be too grossed out by it...anyway, I definitely thought it was worthwhile. :)
  • crazyltfreak
    That was probably one of the funniest endings of transmission awesome! =D Joe, you need to relax more =D
    P.S. I was really hoping to hear how Joe would defend that Sonic game

    LOL.. I like how Joe moved away from the mic when he went on his rant..
