On this week’s Scottscope
podcast, we’ll be talking about the dynamic new time travel epic Looper.
Does it raise the bar for time travel films? Is it one of the best science fiction films
in years? Will it achieve the same level
of cult status and/or popularity as Back
to the Future and The Terminator? Is Bruce Willis the new elder statesman of
80’s action icons? How does his track
record stack up to Stallone and Schwarzenegger’s? Will Ryan Johnson now become a fanboy
favorite? Is the fall of 2012 shaping up
to be better than the summer of 2012 as far as genre films are concerned?
We will also talk about Rick Ross and Young Jeezy’s
altercation at the 2012 BET Hip-Hop Awards
ceremony in Atlanta. Just what was it
about? Why did it happen? What is the history between these two
artists? Does this make the BET Hip-Hop awards no better than The Source Awards? Does it validate the stigma and notoriety
surrounding Hip-Hop award shows? Is that
stigma well deserved, or is it unfounded? Is it time for rappers to outgrow
this type of behavior?
The roundtable will also take a look at the current state of
the hood flick. Is it a dead genre? Do films like End Of Watch signal a possible resurgence? Why are people so fascinated with this side
of the African American experience?
Should white directors be allowed to make these films? What is the best hood film of all time? If the genre does experience a revival, how
will modern hood films be any different from their predecessors? Should the genre stay dead?
