Unraveling the Apocalypse with Laurie Calcaterra | INTERVIEW

Unraveling the Apocalypse with Laurie Calcaterra | INTERVIEW
In this gripping episode of Geek Freaks, host Frank dives into the decaying world of "Path of the Pale Rider" with none other than its brilliant creator, Laurie Calcaterra. Join us as we explore the eerie and thought-provoking narrative where death has lost its grip, trapping souls in their mortal coils, leading to an unfathomable apocalypse. Laurie gives us an exclusive behind-the-scenes look into the genesis of this haunting saga, from its conception as a full-length movie to its rebirth as a trade comic that stitches together a world teetering on the edge of oblivion. We dissect the journey of Jude St. Clair, a man on a relentless quest for answers in a world overrun by undead bears, famine, and societal collapse. Laurie reveals the inspiration behind Jude's character and the challenges he faces, not just from external threats but from within the fraying edges of his own sanity. Each issue, Laurie explains, is a step deeper into the heart of darkness, with Issue #1 setting the stage in a world ten years post-apocalypse, Issue #2 introducing a pivotal character in the unfriendly town of Santa Claus, Issue #3 taking us back to the very day death disappeared, and Issue #4 pushing Jude into even more perilous territory. Laurie shares the rationale behind compiling the first four issues into a trade paperback, emphasizing the desire to present the story as a cohesive whole, akin to the acts of a movie, enriched with bonus material that fans will adore. From the remastered first issue, now in full color, to the inclusion of variant cover art, pages from the script, new personal journal entries from Jude, and even a map of the apocalypse, Laurie ensures that readers will be fully immersed in the world of "Path of the Pale Rider." But that's not all. Laurie takes us beyond the pages of the comic to discuss the innovative Kickstarter campaign that brought this project to life. We get an insider look at the unique rewards for backers, including the much-talked-about "Path of the Pale Sauce," custom buttons, and the extremely limited black and white mini trade editions, each handcrafted by Laurie herself. As a bonus, Laurie teases the interactive aspect of the comic series, with riddles and short films that draw readers deeper into the lore of "Path of the Pale Rider," promising an experience that extends well beyond reading. Don't miss this episode as Laurie Calcaterra shares her journey of creativity, martial arts influence on her storytelling, and the nerdy passions that fuel her narrative drive. It's an apocalypse like you've never seen before, and you're invited to discover its secrets with us on Geek Freaks! -------------------- *Check Out All Our Podcasts!* Geek Freaks Podcast: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaks Disney Moms Gone Wrong: https://linktr.ee/disneymomsgonewrong Challenge Accepted: https://linktr.ee/challengeacceptedgf Headlines: https://tinyurl.com/2p8bvu6d Level Up!: https://linktr.ee/PushingButtonsPodcast Who's Got Next Game: https://tr.ee/wX3t_vGxdO TrekFreaks: https://linktr.ee/TrekFreaks Geek Freaks Interviews: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaksInterviews Outlast Podcast: https://linktr.ee/OutlastPodcast Round Three: https://linktr.ee/RoundThree From The Pages: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast -------------------- *Hang Out With Us!* Discord: https://discord.gg/6Jrvyb2 Threads: https://www.threads.net/@geekfreakspodcast Twitter: twitter.com/geekfreakspod Facebook: facebook.com/groups/227307812330853/ Instagram: instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast E-mail: [email protected] Twitch: twitch.tv/geekfreakspodcast Site: geekfreakspodcast.com --------------------- *Support Us!* Patreon: https://patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast Store: redbubble.com/people/GeekFreaks

Argylle Review, Netflix's Showcase, Sonic's Jim Carrey, Disney Lawsuit, Xbox on PS5, VR Gaming, and Much More!
Summary In this episode, Frank and Jonathan discuss their favorite Star Wars movies and rank them. They also talk about Netflix's big reveals, including the upcoming Avatar and King Bumi in The Last Airbender. They discuss Jim Carrey joining the Sonic movie and Gina Carano suing Disney. Finally, they delve into Xbox's potential release on PS5 and the future of gaming, including cloud gaming. The conversation covers the future of ownership in video games, the rise of virtual reality in gaming, and a review of the movie 'Argyle'. Takeaways Star Wars movie rankings can vary among fans, with some preferring the original trilogy and others enjoying the prequel and sequel trilogies. Netflix continues to make big reveals, including new seasons of popular shows like Cobra Kai and Sweet Tooth, as well as the highly anticipated Squid Game season 2. Jim Carrey's return to the Sonic movie franchise is exciting for fans, as his portrayal of Robotnik was well-received in the first film. Gina Carano's lawsuit against Disney raises questions about freedom of speech and the consequences of public statements made by public figures. Xbox's potential release of games like Indiana Jones and Starfield on PS5 shows a shift in their strategy, possibly aiming for broader accessibility and revenue. The future of gaming may involve cloud gaming, where players do not own physical copies of games but stream them instead. The future of ownership in video games is uncertain, with the shift towards digital and subscription-based models potentially limiting players' control over their purchased games. Virtual reality (VR) has the potential to revolutionize gaming by allowing players to immerse themselves in virtual worlds and interact with their favorite games in new ways. The movie 'Argyle' received mixed reviews, with some viewers disappointed by the misleading marketing and convoluted plot twists.
