Remember that snowy screen on old TV‘s after movies, shows, or even switching channels to play your favorite video games? We talk about all of that stuff that filled that Static Zone!

"God... we're never ending this episode."
The Ranking of "Cinema" Part 2! It didn't make sense to rank everything we watched last time, and it makes even less sense now, but that's why it's so much fun! From pilot episodes to documentaries to some of the worst of the best genres, this ranking includes 49 "selections." Did your favorite movie make it into the Top 10? I doubt it! Did we go on hiatus because of this episode? Maybe! (jk, we didn't)
View the final ranking here.
As we announced in the outro, the podcast is taking a break. Life is busy and dumb, as John Lennon once said sorta! We thank all of you for tuning in and everyone who has joined in previous episodes. Keep an eye on our socials for the return!
Dreamcast (and more!) 12-Hour Marathon VOD on YouTube and Twitch.
You can still donate to our Extra Life Team right here. Thank you to all who viewed, donated, and hung out!
If you want even more Marathon-related stuff, Scotty and Brett discussed the Marathon here.
Thank you! <3

"What does it mean when there's a picture of a skull?"
"Good stuff!"
What happens when you combine some of the most intense martial arts fighting scenes, 30 ducks, and a little bit of ginseng for plot?

Our buddies Graham and Nick join to discuss one of Chan's craziest creations to date. Spoilers inbound!

"Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!"
When your movie puts as much into the merchandising as the production itself, then your audience is bound to discuss them equally. Or completely rant about toys in general, because that's what happened with this 1994 "superhero" movie, The Shadow! Friend, and amazing artist, Tom Kyzivat joins us this week to eventually discuss the OG Batman and Alec Baldwin's chest hair. Spoilers inbound!

"You put in your 10,000 hours", I put in my 10,000 McTwists."
It feels like the year 1999 had it all: the first Matrix movie, the Sega Dreamcast, and Tony Hawk pulling off the 900 on ESPN. Travel back with us to explore a time before and after one of the most monumental moments of skateboarding by the man that is all things skateboarding in the documentary: Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off. Spoilers ahead!
Tony Hawk explains 21 skateboarding tricks.

"People, they love blood. They love action. Not this talky, depressing, philosophical bullsh*t."
Just when you think we are going to have a carefree, light-hearted summer, we decide to watch the 2014 drama, Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance). What looks like a one-shot theater exaggeration turns into a deep dive into just about everything in the entertainment industry starring the first Batman for most of us: Michael Keaton. Trigger warnings are stated at the beginning of our recording (or Google them, please) because it's an intense ride. Spoilers inbound.

"Buffalo, or whatever you're called, you're full of crap!"
We definitely messed up with our factoids on the live-action Street Fighter movie, so it's time to get ourselves educated! Our buddy TJKitsune joins us to discuss Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie and set the record straight. Between the different versions, references, and soundtrack choices, it's surprising this discussion only fits into one episode. Crank that Alice in Chains, and do some stretches because it's time for round 2! Spoilers inbound!
Thanks again to TJKitsune for joining!

"Racing hasn't changed, and it never will."
This may be the Static Zone's most divisive discussion to date. Speed Racer has been an anime series, a CGI series, and had multiple movies, but we decided to watch the live-action 2008 movie. Do you like neon colors, business conspiracies, and milk? Then this is the episode for you! Spoilers inbound!

"It's finger-lickin' GOOD!"
It's fitting when discussing a vampire move that we nearly bite each other's heads off. That may tell you just how strongly we feel about Near Dark. Bill Paxton steals every scene while somehow balancing them perfectly. Could this be the first time we agree a movie actually needs a remake? Tune in to find out! Spoilers ahead!
Scotty Note: I misremembered the Steel City Con panels I saw because they all blend together. The panel included Lance Henricksen, Michael Biehn, and Edward Furlong and can be viewed by clicking here.

"I think you know what I'm gettin' at Mr. President. We're gonna kill us a mummy."
Bruce Campbell has fought demons, Spider-Man (sorta), and mummies, and almost officiated one-half of the Static Zone Podcast’s marriages. Is there anything the man cannot do?! We ask this question to the King of Rock N Roll himself by watching the Elvis Presley "documentary" entitled Bubba Ho-Tep! Happy 21st Anniversary, Bubba! Spoilers inbound!
Don't forget about the 12-Hour Marathon Scotty is hosting to help kids!

"For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day in your life. But for me? It was Tuesday."
In a time before Uwe Boll ruined everything you loved there lived only three video game movies, and we finally watched the third one: Street Fighter. Is it really as bad as everyone says? Or is it better that Blanka was created from freezer pops than electric eels? Let's find out together! Spoilers inbound!
