Today is a day in the US when we honor those leaders who made a difference in our country’s history. So, for today we will all be out doing pretty much anything else besides work.
Even though we don’t like it, we sometimes have to let the team out of their rooms and out into the world. Don’t worry, it’s only for a few hours. We’ll be back tomorrow.
For those of you not in the US please, enjoy your Monday. For those who are, enjoy this day of rest.

In the United States, this is the time of year when Hollywood virtually shuts down and people leave town to visit family and friends. Plus, the staff here at The Flickcast actually has family and friends as well and many of them are doing the same.
So, for the next week or so we will have a reduced posting schedule. Of course, if anything big happens, we’ll bring it to you. Also, be sure to look for our “Best of 2011″ articles covering movies, TV, comics, games and all things geek before the end of the year as well.
In the meantime, from all of us here at The Flickcast, we wish all of you the very best for this holiday season and happiness, health and luck for 2012.

If you happen to live in the United States, as most of the team here at The Flickcast do, then you know this week is Thanksgiving. That means, of course, that come Thursday we will be eating more food and consuming more booze than most people do in a month.
Yes, that’s just how we roll here in the States. In addition to the intense gluttony taking place, we will also be traveling and spending some quality time with friends and family. That is, at least until someone gets drunk and a fight breaks out.
Consequently, this will be a slow week, posting wise, here at the site. Yes, we will be putting up even less content than usual. Hey, we’re trying here, okay? At least the site is free.
This will continue during the entire week and through the weekend. On Monday things will get back to normal. Or, whatever what we do here is called.
Until then, we wish you all the best for the holiday. We also want you to know we are very thankful you decide to spend some time with us here at The Flickcast every day.
We sincerely appreciate it. Happy Thanksgiving to our friends in the States.

As many of you know, it’s a holiday weekend here in the U S of A. That means all around the country people are getting together for food, fun, sun and the adult beverages of their choice to celebrate our independence day.
This seemed like as good a weekend as any to give the hard working staff here at The Flickcast some much deserved time off. We’ve got quite a few things coming up over the next few months, including the big one called Comic-Con in San Diego, so we’re going to take it easy this weekend.
Consequently, our posting schedule over the weekend and on Monday, the actual 4th of July, will be much lighter than usual. If a big story breaks, we’ll bring it to you. Otherwise, we’ll be back to our version of normal on Tuesday, July 5th.
Happy 4th of July weekend to those of you who celebrate it. For the rest, enjoy your weekend.
To add to the fun, we’ve included a little video to help set the mood. Click through to check it out.
Thanks for reading and we’ll see you on Tuesday.

It’s a holiday here in the United States and a day we remember all the men and women of our armed forces who’ve paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Because of this and because we like to let the writers have some time off occasionally, we’ll have a reduced posting schedule today and will resume our normal schedule tomorrow.
To our readers in the U.S., have a great holiday. For the rest of you from other countries, thanks for reading and we’ll see you tomorrow when everything is back to normal around here. Well, as normal as it gets anyway.

In the United States, this is the time of year when Hollywood virtually shuts down and people leave town to visit family and friends. Plus, the staff here at The Flickcast actually has family and friends as well and many of them are doing the same.
So, for the next two weeks we will have a reduced posting schedule. Of course, if anything big happens, we’ll bring it to you. Also, be sure to check out a brand new episode of the Podcast tomorrow and look for our “Best of 2010″ articles covering movies, TV, comics, games and all things geek before the end of the year as well.
In the meantime, from all of us here at The Flickcast, we wish all of you the very best for this holiday season and happiness, health and luck for 2011.

This week is a holiday week here in the United States and as a result we’re giving the staff a bit of time off to celebrate with family and friends. So, that means we’ll have a reduced schedule for today and for the rest of the week.
Also, due to travel schedules and such we won’t be having a podcast this week either. Sorry folks. That will return next week as well.
Of course, if breaking news happens, we’ll bring it to you. Otherwise, expect to see us back to normal (or our version of it) on Monday, November 29th.
We wish all of you who celebrate this holiday the very best. Happy Thanksgiving.

As families shop for gifts, travel to be with loved ones and make final preparations for the holiday season, we here at The Flickcast are doing the same. In order to let our contributors have some fun during the holidays and spend time with their families, we are taking some time off during the next couple weeks.
Consequently, we will have a reduced posting schedule for articles. Of course, if any breaking news hits, we’ll bring it to you. Also, we will have more in our series of “Best Of 2009” articles covering topics such as movies and games, so be sure and watch out for those.
In addition, we won’t be having a podcast this week. However, we will return next week with our “Best Of” edition of The Flickcast podcast where we will discuss everything movie, tv, comics, games and geek we thought was the best of 2009 and of the decade. So, be sure to check that out next Wednesday right here and in iTunes.
For now, we thank you for being here and from all of us at The Flickcast, we wish you the best for the holiday season and for the new year.
Here’s to a happy, healthy and even better 2010!
