Fans can be jerks. Prompted by Joss Whedon's exodus from Twitter, in this episode we talk about fan entitlement, and how fans of movies, TV and comics are not just more invested in shows than they've ever been, but they tend to take that fandom to extremes by making unreasonable demands of creators.

DC Comics is rebooting Scooby-Doo and several other classic Hanna-Barbera properties. But... they're a little EXTREME. From an "edgy" Scooby Doo to a photorealistic Flintstones to a completely wacked out Wacky Races featuring Mad Max style vehicles... is this a good idea? We also talk about graphic novels coming to Walmart, and Darth Vader making an appearance in Star Wars: Rogue One. You'll always be Matt to us, Kylo Ren!On the web: http://www.clownfishtv.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Legal smackdown! Crowdfunded fan film project Star Trek: Axanar is slapped with a lawsuit by Paramount on Christmas Day.

We talk about that, as well as the legality of Artist Alley "fan art" prints and more!On the web: http://www.clownfishtv.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Somebody has to pay for people to make entertainment. If it's not the consumer, then it's the creator, advertising or other funding sources. Today we're talking about how it's not "selling out" if the alternative is to go off the air or out of print. We equate the recent HBO deal with Sesame Street with comic books and how Marvel and DC have aligned themselves with major corporations to ensure their survival! We also discuss the "Fair Page Rates" and talk about Thom's near brush with The Real World -- this is the true story!Music: Dan O / Epidemic Sound Hosted on Acast.

Are commenters trolling your blog, webcomic or forum? Yeah, they probably are. In this podcast episode we talk about some of our experience with trolls in the comments and what we’ve learned from the interactions. Not all comments are coming from good commenters. And some are… they just don’t have the social skills to understand when they’ve crossed the line into trolling. The ball is in the content creators’ court, however… so how are YOU going to deal with trolls?WARNING: The language is a little coarse in this one, as we dish honestly about our frustration with trolls! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
BOMB! The Jem and the Holograms live-action movie not only failed miserably at the box office, but it became one of the biggest box office bombs of all time — it’s outrageous, truly, truly! So what went wrong? Pretty much everything, and we talk about it!Then we move on to the massive marketing push for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The Force is awake, and not going back to sleep any time soon!Lastly, we discuss Doctor Who series 9. Jenna Coleman’s Clara Oswald is leaving the show. But… HOW? Will Moffat and company kill her off, or will she just get stuck in the past with a flimsy explanantion as to why the Doctor can’t simply go back and get her?All this and more on an extra ranty episode of the podcast! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Are you a negative ninny? Is your negativity impacting your creative career goals… for the negative? Is all criticism “negative?” Are you your own worst enemy? And… most importantly… is Kambrea just a hand puppet? We attempt to answer these questions and more on this episode of the podcast! We talk about how negativity can tank your comics and webcomics projects, and realistic expectations about “breaking in” to comics. Also, Wizard World Pittsburgh! Whoo hoo! Hosted on Acast.
