Geekscape 300: The Super Giant Geekscape 300 Spectacular!

by Jonathan

This is it! Geekscape 300! Joining us for this super-sized Geekscape spectacular is Clerks star Marilyn Ghigiotti, who not only brings us lasagna (which made my head explode), but also catches us up on her post-Clerks work and talks about the process of finding out she’s going to be in ‘Clerks 3’! Gilmore, Ben Dunn and Ian Kerner appear to reenact the first Geekscape! Witney Siebold and Jason Trost talk ‘Elysium’, with Ian Kerner and Jon Schnepp (who gives us an updated on ‘The Death of Superman Lives’ documentary)! Stan Lee’s Comikaze organizer Regina Carpinelli previews what’s in store for this year’s Comikaze and Geekscape writers Juan Carlos Marquez and Josh Jackson tell us why ‘Pikmin 3’ is definitely worth picking up! PLUS! ‘Airwolf’ comic writer David Gorden calls in along with longtime Geekscape writers Jacob Lopez, Shane O’Hare, Matt Kelly and Derek Kraneveldt! JUAN CARLOS!!!

Jason Trost’s ‘Wet And Reckless’ Hits VOD This Friday!

by Derek Kraneveldt

If you’re a regular around these parts, you know how much we love Jason Trost. He’s the man behind last year’s phenomenal The FP (which made it on Jonathan’s best of 2012 list), and this year’s All Superheroes Must Die. We’ve also featured him on the podcast twice (here and here), and had a long conversation with him before All Superheroes Must Die released earlier this year.

Jason’s next film, Wet and Reckless, is now just a few days away from VOD. This Friday (August 9th), the movie will be available for rent/download worldwide. Yep, even if you’re all the way up in Canada (like me), you won’t have to wait months to check it out.

Wet and Reckless has been called “Jersey Shore meets National Treasure.”, and it looks like an absolute blast. The film won the 2013 Independent Spirit Award at Fantastic Planet earlier this year, and I really can’t wait to see it.

Watch the trailer for Wet and Reckless below, and head over to Vimeo to check the movie out!

Imagine Wes Anderson’s BOTTLE ROCKET fused with the reality TV show SURVIVOR, and you might get the slightest inkling of this hilarious buddy-comedy-crime-caper that spins entirely off the rails. Two party-animal, reality TV stars (Jason Trost – THE FP, and Lucas Till – X-MEN: FIRST CLASS) are stranded in Thailand. The only way home, and last chance of reclaiming their reality star-status? A treasure map… to a treasure map… Hilarity and adventure ensue in this indie comedic gem.

JTRO’s at it again, this time with #WetAndReckless. Grindfist Pictures has just released the film’s official trailer and poster, and they look bad-ass. Check them out below, and let us know what you think! The full feature however, won’t make it to release without our help, so read on for the details!

 

 

A reality television show goes horribly wrong forcing its ill-equipped stars to hunt for buried treasure to find a way home.

#WetAndReckless stars Lucas Till, Jason Trost, Scout-Taylor Compton and Sean Whalen, and it should be a freaking blast! As mentioned above, it does need our help to see the light of day. Jason has has created an IndieGogo campaign to raise funds for the film’s distribution. Check it out here, claim some cool rewards (like a limited edition autographed poster), and help us all see JTRO’s latest!

 

Jason, we’ll be backing your shit up until the end, for reals.
