On this episode Chris and Joe once again dive into a subject they don’t discuss very often: horror movies. That’s right, in honor of Halloween coming up this weekend, the boys talk about some of their favorite horror films, what they like and don’t like about the genre and generally what scares them.

But, to be honest, they’re not experts on horror movies. Fortunately, they’ve brought in a very special guest to help: Scott Weinberg.

That’s right, noted film critic, podcaster, producer and horror film expert Scott Weinberg is on the show this week. So you know this episode is gonna be chock full of some spooky horror movie goodness (and badness). And that’s not all.

The trio also get back to their roots with discussions on their first horror movie experiences, the movies that made them fall in love with movies and why Scott loves horror movies so much. Plus, the usual more. In fact, much, much more.

It’s a great episode. Thanks for listening.

This week is all X-Men, but next week begins the time of Green Lantern as it’s the next major superhero film to hit this summer. The live-action film hits theaters on June 17th, but way before that, you’ll be getting the geek’s fan favorite choice as Hal Jordan, Nathan Fillion, lending his voice in the animated anthology Green Lantern: Emerald Knights.

The film is a series of stories surrounding Jordan and a few other members of the Green Lantern Corps as they fight crime across the universe. There are some pretty impressive names attached the film alongside Fillion. Roddy Piper, Henry Rollins, Kelly Hu, Arnold Vosloo, and Elisabeth Moss all lend their voices to fight space crime.

In a recent interview, King of the Geeks Fillion discussed how much he’s always wanted to play the Emerald Hero, even since childhood.

As a child, when you’re pretending you’re different super heroes, Green Lantern was the easiest because all you needed to light the fire in the imagination was the ring.  Superman, you need a cape; Spiderman, you need a full face mask.  That wasn’t tough to come by in a winter town like where I’m from, but they’re just too hot to wear in the summer. So to be Green Lantern, all you needed to do is suck a lifesaver down to the right size, and to make sure it’s a lime one – slip it on your finger, and you were good.

Sounds like a match made in heaven to us. Check out a brand new clip from Green Lantern: Emerald Knights after the jump and be sure to grab the film on DVD and Blu-Ray next Tuesday, June 7th.

If you thought the upcoming live-action Green Lantern film was going to be the beginning and end of Hal Jordan’s journey as the Emerald Knight, you’re way off. The first Green Lantern of Earth will continue his intergalactic patrol in the upcoming animated anthology Green Lantern: Emerald Knights from Warner Home Video.

In the same vein as Batman: Gotham Knights, the animated feature will be comprised of several short stories surrounding Hal Jordan (to be voiced by fan favorite Nathan Fillion) and the rest of the Green Lantern Corps as they fight evil throughout the galaxy.

Joining Fillion in this star-studded cast of voice actors is Kelly Hu, Elisabeth Moss, Henry Rollins, Arnold Vosloo, and Roddy Piper.

In the clip we have for you, we meet Arisia (Moss), the newest recruit to the Corps, as she makes her way to a briefing from the Guardians of OA about their eldest foe, Krona.

Take a look at the clip after the jump, and catch Green Lantern: Emerald Knights on DVD and Blu-ray June 7th.

DC Entertainment and Warner Home Video have been on a roll as of late. Their latest release, in the form of adapting Grant Morrison’s All-Star Superman was a massive success, and had great voice work done by names like Christina Hendricks and Anthony LaPaglia. Now, the animation studio is shifting focus onto this year’s big star, Green Lantern, with an animated anthology about Hal Jordan and the whole Green Lantern Corps. Warner Home Video has the full synopsis.

Green Lantern: Emerald Knights is an all-new DC Universe Animated Original Movie that weaves six interlocking stories of the Green Lantern Corps’ rich mythology around preparations for an attack by an ancient enemy.

As the battle approaches, Hal Jordan (voiced by Nathan Fillion, Castle) mentors new recruit Arisia (Elisabeth Moss, Mad Men) in the history of the Green Lantern Corps, telling tales of Avra (the first Green Lantern) and several of Hal’s comrades – including Abin Sur, Kilowog, Laira and Mogo.

In the end, Arisia must rise to the occasion to help Hal, Sinestro and the entire Green Lantern Corps save the universe from the destructive forces of Krona.

So for the first time since the epic fan film done over a year ago, fans can finally combine Nathan Fillion with the Green Lantern in their minds again, and this time it will be legitimate.

Fans can catch Emerald Knights on Blu-Ray and DVD June 7th as the promotion ramps up for this summer’s highest anticipated films, Green Lantern, in theaters on June 17th.

Despite staying busy as the star of ABC’s Castle, we’re learning that Nathan Fillion will also be starring as Hal Jordan in an animated tie-in to this summer’s live-action DC Comic adaptation, Green Lantern. Set to release June 7, 2011 from Warner Bros Animation, the animated flick will star some amazing voice talent including Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men), Jason Isaacs (‘Harry Potter’), Kelly Hu (Hawaii Five-0, The Vampire Diaries), rocker/actor/spoken-word artist Henry Rollins and last-but-not-least, ex-wrestler “Rowdy” Roddy Piper.

TV Guide is serving up an exclusive first-look of Fillion (pictured above) as he takes to the microphone in his unmistakable ‘Green Lantern’ tee-shirt. Fillion spoke briefly with TV Guide about his fanboy glee over being chosen to voice an iconic comic character like The Green Lantern:

“I was always reading the comic books, I was always a spectator,”Fillion told TV Guide. “Now I feel like I own a little piece of Green Lantern.“

Warner Bros Animation is planning to release ‘Green Lantern: Emerald Knights’ a mere 10 days before the release of the feature film starring Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan. With Fillion and Reynolds both alumni of ABC’s ‘Two Guys and a Girl,’ there seems to be nothing but respect between the two actors.

“He’s a great guy, a gem, deserves all the success that he’s getting,” says Fillion, “so it’s neat to have a little piece and share it with someone you know.“

As a huge fan of Nathan Fillion, I’m eagerly awaiting the June 7th release date of ‘Emerald Knights.’ And wow, summer 2011 is shaping up to be an amazing season for comic book-based flicks. With ‘Thor’ releasing in May, ‘Green Lantern’ in June, and ‘Captain America’ in July, it’s going to be an outstanding time to be a fanboy.
