This week’s episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe takes a step back into the campy direction of a cult classic soap opera. Adam Gentry (and, briefly, a very special guest) join Aaron and Abe to discuss the new Tim Burton/Johnny Depp film, Dark Shadows, a theatrical remake of the old TV series of the same name. Is this strangely fitting for a Mother’s Day episode? Maybe. Still, the gang does get a chance to go over a couple new trailers (Gangster Squad and The Campaign), as well as participate in...
This week we talk Avengers.
Time for another Bonus Round with Aaron and Abe. This special episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe is the first where the gauntlet has been thrown down and Aaron, Abe, and guests Alan Aguilera, Mark Hobin, and Adam Gentry are tasked with making a big wager.

So each participant has created their own list (and added a few da...
This week’s episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe is an assembly of several voices who have come together in an effort to talk about one of the biggest movie events of the year, The Avengers.

Time for another Bonus Commentary Episode!

Of co...
The best thing about this lengthy episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe is the high amount of energy that Abe, Aaron, and special guest Scott Mendelson have in delving into all the various films that they mention and in particular the two films subject to review for this week.

This special bonus episode of Out Now with Aaron and Abe is missing an Abe, but does have an Aaron, and he is joined by Adam Gentry and Mark Hobin to discuss a couple of the recent Art House, Foreign, and Independent films that have been in theaters. A few different films are discussed, but special emphasis is placed on The Kid with a Bike, Bully, and A Separation. This is much more a free form show, as the trio simply discusses several films and forgoes having all of the regular show segments. ...

Time for another Bonus Commentary Episode! For whatever reason, Aaron and Abe have decided to spend more time adding their thoughts over films that they felt like watching together, along with a couple guests – Jordan Grout and Jim Dietz. Say what you will about how much one learns during these commentaries, but at least they manage to have a good time watching the film, despite the many tangents they go on. Anyway, if you happen to have access to the original 1981 Clash of the Titans or feel li...
