Play Pause

1d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: For years I've seen lists with Beyond The Door III as a must-see film of the horror boom of the '80s, so I knew eventually I'd watch it. I finally did this weekend, and it went far past any expectations I might have had. This is truly a WILD movie!By Joe Esposito

An Actual Good Use Of AI 5:01

2d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: One thing that people who are skeptical about AI often point to is the lack of genuinely beneficial applications of the technology. The marketing and hype often centers on the least worthwhile aspects of what these tools can do. You can imagine my shock at seeing it put to a truly GOOD use recently!…

Well Here's A Dumb Idea! 5:01

6d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: You may have seen a report about a business analyst suggesting that maybe it's time for Tim Cook to step down as CEO of Apple. This follows a recent string of criticism over the struggles the company has run into trying to create a competitve AI product. The suggestion this analysis led to might be the dumbest thing I've read in a w…

Frankenstein '80 Retro Review 5:01

7d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: The latest movie in our "Communal Cinema" series ended up being 1972's Frankenstein '80, an attempt at a new interpretation of the classic Frankenstein story via an early 70s Italian horror lens. If you're familiar with Italian movies of that era, you might think you know how that would go. Interestingly, it both follows the formula…

Iron Angels III Retro Review 5:01

8d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: As promised, I went ahead and watch the final film in the Iron Angels trilogy, 1989's Iron Angels III. I wasn't sure if the third film would be able to match the energy and entertainment the first two movies delivered, but I'm thrilled to report it's every bit as good as trhe previous entries. All in all, grabbing this box set was a…

Why Do They Bother? 5:01

9d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: I'm sure most of you saw some type of coverage of Prime Day this year. Even websites that don't typically cover product reviews created some variation of a "best of Prime Day" list. In the earlier years of Prime Day, this type of coverage made some kind of sense, but as Prime Day has become junkier and junkier, I'm not sure what the…

What Matters (To Me) In Games 5:01

13d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: In the wake of the latest round of Microsoft layoffs, I've seen some interesting discussions around how bloated the video game industry has become. One aspect of the debate is over the amount of work needed to create AAA games. This got me thinking about how much or how little cutting edge graphics matter to me.…

Maybe Just Shut Up 5:01

14d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: You may have heard about the recent layoffs at Microsoft, a story that you could read about just about every large tech coimpany these days. What makes this story a bit unusual was the incredibly cold and insulting "advice" one of the execs at the company offered to those affected.By Joe Esposito

Iron Angels II Retro Review 5:01

15d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: Following the great time I had with Iron Angels, I was itching to jump into the sequel hoping it could almost match the first film in terms of action and stunts. I say almost since there was one big concern I had for the next film in the trilogy. Luckily, Iron Angels II manages to avoid the sophomore slump while changing a few thing…

20d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: Lando and I ended up watching a thriller film from 2020 titled History Of The Occult for our communal film this week. I don't think either of us were prepared for how fantastic the movie turned out to be, and this was before I read about some important things never of us noticed!By Joe Esposito

21d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: I went ahead and took a chance on another boxset from Vinegar Syndrome, this time for a trilogy of films under the title Iron Angels. I had a hunch I'd at least enjoy the movies, so I popped in Iron Angels and hoped for the best. Good news gang, it's awesome!By Joe Espsoito

The Ethical Fallacy 5:01

22d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: You may have seen or heard about an Anthropic study that showed a large number of AI models behaved "unethically" in order to achieve certain goals or avoid being replaced. I have to admit, I wonder if these people even know what ethics are.By Joe Esposito

Today on the 5: A little while back I criticized both Nintendo and Duolingo over their anti-consumer moves. I got a question on what to usae uinstead of Duolngo, As I considered my answer, I realized that Duolingo doesn't work for me anymore, I can't honestly say it wouldn't be useful for those just getting started.…

Today on the 5: I came across a story over on Ars Technica about a court ruling that some are worried forces AI companies to be mass surveillance outfits. The ruling itself wasn't all that interesting to me, but comments from some users who filed complaints about sure were!By Joe Esposito

Visitors From The Arkana Galaxy Retro Review 5:01

28d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: For our shared movie selection this week, Lando (somewhat) selected Visitors From The Arkana Galaxy, a 1981 Czech-Croatian science-fiction comedy. We didn't know what to expect, and I think it's fair to say neither of us had seen anything quite like this film before. It's a movie that is consistently riveting even as it goes further…

Last Night In Soho Review 5:01

29d ago5:01

5:01

Today on the 5: Through weirdly accidental means, I decided to watch the 2021 film Last Night In Soho by Edgar Wright. While I don't remember having any interest in it when it initially released, it turns out I've been sleeping on a really good movie.By Joe Esposito

Today on the 5: You've likely heard about the recent shooting of some Minnesota lawmakers, which naturally has others in similar lines of work concerned over future violence. They should be concerned, because we've all been conditioned to think of anyone who disagrees with us as mortal enemies.By Joe Esposito

5:01

Today on the 5: The move that many people (including me) expected well before now has come at last. Disney is suing Midjourney over alleged piracy via their AI tools, and I would guess many artists couldn't be more conflicted on rooting for the House Of Mouse to win.By Joe Esposito

Today on the 5: I watched Equalizer 2000 and Raiders Of The Sun for an upcoming episode of Len Kabasinski's Forgotten Movie Den. It's been a long time since I've seen these movies, and I've never watched them back to back before. They're basically the exact same movie!By Joe Esposito
