Originally Recorded - July 17th 2017 This week: The Miller bros discuss(ed) Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol: 2. AND, the first (and only?) installment of the ELECTRIFYING new segment: Stump The Steve! Listen in comfort as Steve attempts to correctly answer at least 3 out of 5 movie-related questions in order to avoid a painful fate of punishment with many volts. Will he succeed? If he does, the volts will go to Jerry. But what are the chances of that? Jerry wrote the questions. The Miller bros discuss a myriad of smaller topics and go on a few rabbit holes. What? Who would release a podcast of such an old recording, you ask? Us, baby. Us.

Originally Recorded - January 31st 2017 This week: The Miller bros probe many life-altering questions such as, Will gems like the telepathy-inducing drug, glitterstim spice make their way into the Han Solo solo movie? The brothers could not possibly hope for this less. Rogue One's ending & Leia's CG appearance, what about the SECOND Death Star's main reactor design flaw?, 1st impressions v/s 2nd impressions of R-1, the Death Star plans & intentionally "antiquated" data storage?, K2SO, Deathtroopers, did Cassian "Lenny" that dude?, Admiral Raddus's Corellian Corvette maneuver, Rogue One's "missing" shots, Jedha's cantina customer cameos, Splinter of the Mind's Eye & the Kaiburr Crystal, the Kyber memory crystal, and the just plain ol' kyber crystals, who is chyrons?, The Ring of Kafrene, Bodhi Rook's death-defying plug-in, the coolness of Chirrut Imwe, and the truth comes out; Steve is a power-hungry villain. (Also, tell us if you think you witnessed too much laughing today.) Stevisms include: personification of chyrons NEXT EPISODE: The Miller bros catch up to the present (or thereabouts), discussing Guardians Of The Galaxy 2. Also, introducing our brand new shocking challenge segment, Stump The Steve. Listen with rapt attention as Steve attempts to answer enough of Jerry's 5 questions to avoid electrocution!...Okay, not electrocution, but he does get shocked if he can't answer 3 out of 5 questions (and we don't mean really surprised). But if young Stevie IS up to the challenge then the tables turn and the shock goes to Jerry...who thought up the questions. And really doesn't like getting shocked. Who will get the volts? Who will feel the power? Find out next week in Episode 009!

Originally Recorded - January 31st 2017 A quick note: It's about to get reeeally current up in here! No more of these ancient recordings separated by so many moons. Even this episode has made it into 2017! One more episode after this one and we'll be hitting on Guardians of the Galaxy.   See, our small outpost of a podcast arose amidst much turmoil and tribulation and was just a bit tough to get going but we're rollin' now. By the time of this recording we were better equipped so sound quality takes a big jump forward, though we still press on toward further audial purity.   In this episode the Miller Bros discuss (duh) Rogue One, possible political statements, Steve not being quite sure of the fine-tuning of its grittiness (Man. Is that dude EVER satisfied???), Bor Gullet, your favorite psychometric space octopus, Saw P. Gerrera, Time Travel in Star Wars & Elsewhere, 1977 technological restraints' effect on storytelling (tapes?), villain stuff, other stuff, etc. Of course, this is all once they get past all the Kong v/s Kong, old school filmmaking, Clash of the Clash of the Titans' visual effects, dinosaur warnings, and Action Jack stuff.     Disclaimer: We mean no offense to anyone named "Jack" we just wish the action genre could think of some other names.     Find us on:   Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/cb1138/ [https://www.facebook.com/cb1138/]Homesite:http://cellblock1138podcast.com [http://cellblock1138podcast.com]Contact at: info@cellblock1138podcast.com [info@cellblock1138podcast.com]

Originally Recorded - December 7th 2016 JERRY'S VERSION OF EPISODE ONE, or at least a rough outline. Aight, last week was Good Cop episode regarding TPM but this week frustrations and letdowns abound. It doesn't happen too often but Jerry does occasionally unleash some harsh crits on some Star Wars. Sure, he can find enjoyment in the prequels but that doesn't mean he isn't still carrying a LOT of PAIN! "This alarming chain of events"?, problems with the movie's pacing, ESB'S redacted wampas, cutting on Director’s cuts, Lucas’ Jerry-vexing reinterpretation of his original prequel outline & his pedantic fine-tooth combing over Obi-Wan’s not-so-reckless checklist of events, Steve not being at all down with the fact that the Clone Wars involved…clones?, Jerry's "rough outline" reconstruction of what was "supposed to be" in Episode One as per Obi-Wan's retelling, and that time George Lucas lied to him. Corrections: Jerry refers to Shmi Skywalker as Padme'. The boys end this episode saying that next time would deal with Episode II but apparently that fell by the wayside because... it isn't. No word yet on WHY they lied but they send their apologies, whatever that helps.
