Mystery Asshole Theatre Xmas Special 2010 - Star Wars Holiday Special



Despite the lack of content in the last few months (which is primarily a result of my work schedule being spectacularly busy, and then further compounded by some medical issues which knocked me out the past week or so), we are always ready, willing, and able to deliver a Xmas special for all of you Nerdlets and Nerdlettes out there (whether naughty or nice).

In truth, these Xmas specials seem to be more our cross to bear, as our track record thus far has us doing only the most awful holiday specials imaginable. So, this year, we decided to prepare a special commentary track to the Star Wars Holiday Special, the one piece of Star Wars canon so awful that George Lucas refuses to give it a commercial release. Instead, we have to rely on VHS copies (now digitized) from the original broadcast in 1978.

So, endure the pain with us, after you've gone to the store to rent your copy, and have an enjoyable December holiday of your preference.

Take Flight dvd release



Hey friends, just want to give you all an update on a project by a good friend of our show. Juliet Landau's documentary on Gary Oldman making a video for a Jewish hip hop band has made it's way to dvd. As I reviewed in a previous blog post, the doc is a rather interesting look at both Oldman as an artist and Landau as a director. And maybe if we Canadians buy enough copies, maybe she'll come for a visit.

If you happen to be in LA this weekend, Ms. Landau is doing a signing, screening and release party at Meltdown Comics. Might be worth the trip down...especially considering our situation with snow.

TATANS Extra #4: An Interview with Andrew Vachss



After such a content filled August, it was inevitable that there would be some sort of break, in order to give you time to digest all of the Vitamin Awesome that we were dishing out. It can be filling, we know.

But, we're back now with a brief morsel to whet your appetite for more full-fledged Two Asshole action.

This week, Brent sat down (at the telephone) with renowned author Andrew Vachss to talk about his latest works, and any number of other things that come up. Enjoy, and we'll be back very soon with the Fan Expo run-down.

Episode 27 (High Quality)



Sadly, Man Month 2010 has come to an end, but as a final send-off, the Two Assholes (and Guesthole #3) decided to sit down and reminisce about some of the manliest movies from the manliest man movie decade, the 1980s.

After that, we headed out to watch the 1989 classic (strangely only released in 2010), The Expendables. We then sat down to bump fists, drink motor oil, and perform other manly tasks inspired by the manliest man man movie to ever man the man man man man.

Episode 26



In order to ensure that August, 2010 is the most content-filled month that the Two Assholes will ever have, here's another episode.

This time, we need to look way back to the beginning of the convention season in Toronto, when the Two Assholes sat down at Anime North 2010 with special guest Ashley "Cumslot" MacDonald to share our experiences of the con thus far, and the rest which was still to come.

One would normally think that it would constitute a significant delay to not post until August an episode recorded in May, but we're still beating the Anime Roundtable to air. Be sure to tell Mike how much you want to hear the Anime Roundtable episode recorded the same night as this episode.

Also, since Ashley didn't fulfill her duties as charged, we need some input from our listeners. As punishment for her failure, do we A) Refer to her only as "Cumslot" again, B) Give her an even worse name, or C) Give her one final chance to redeem herself? Let us know what you think in the Comments.
