FadCast | Podcast About Film Fads Movies and Pop Culture

Episode Summary:

This week on the FadCast, Eric joins us as we ready our semi-composted produce to be hurled as we cast a critical eye towards Movie Review Aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. We discuss some of their history of ownership, their accuracy, their effect on the audience, and how they MIGHT impact the thought process of networks and studios. But first, we learn the source of a critics scorn with a scene read from the animated television series "The Critic."

Before that, we briefly talk Lesser Known Comic Book Characters That Could Have A Big Movie Presence, New ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Posters Set The Laid Back Tone Of The Film and First Look At Alicia Vikander As Tomb Raider Lara Croft Is Spot On for our SPEED ROUND!
