New York Cine Video: Roger Corman and The Shooting
A few weeks back the New York Cine gang and I talked about filmmaker Roger Corman and his movie “The Shooting”. The footage above is a small video segment that we pulled from the earlier audio podcast. I consider myself fairly well versed in media and cinema studies topics but my knowledge about Corman was pretty rudimentary. One of the things that I truly love about being a part of this weekly podcast is that I always learn something new. It is great that each of hosts brings different interest and perspectives to the production.
Digital Disruption and the Cable Industry
Last week the New York Cine Radio hosts had a fairly raucous discussion about some of the new streaming services and how they might lead to the decline of cable. With the average cable bill floating at well over a hundred bucks a month it is not hard to wonder why consumers are starting to rebel against cable providers.
The poor customer service offered by these cable providers makes their industry ripe to be digitally disrupted. This is especially true when they bundle tons of low value channels that no one really wants with one or two great channels in order to charge a premium price.

Ken and I sparred a bit over our impressions of James Franco’s and Seth Rogen’s controversial movie, “The Interview”. And finally our conversation took a weird turn as we veered into talking about Joe Rogan and Continue reading “New York Cine Radio: East Bound and Down and UFC talk”
