(The Geek I/O Show) The Geek I/O Show #137: Rant and Review: The Ridiculous 6: "All of my Friends...and Vanilla Ice"

This week on The Geek I/O Show, CJ is away.  So, the gang decides to watch a terrible movie in his absence, and we picked a doozy:  The Donkey Diarrhea Movie...er...The Ridiculous 6!

We cant get off of Taylor Lautner, have a hate-hate relationship with Luke Wilson, puff-puff pass the peace pipe, that magic tumbleweed is kind of impressive, 50 shades of dates, pretty credits, dump, and space baseball.  Plus!  A million ways to die in the west syndrome!

Join us on The Geek I/O Rant & Review, wont you?  Will the movie be the suck on suck we expected it to be?  Tune in to find out.

(Life of an Accounting Droid) Life of an Accounting Droid Episode 29 Game Theory

On this week's episode, I cover the economic principle of Game Theory. In the news, WhatsApp goes totally free and the Amazon Echo can now read Kindle books. For the app review, I review Clipboard Actions for Android.

In the entertainment, we get the first official trailer to Suicide Squad, I watch Agent Carter Season 2 Episodes 1 & 2, and Star Wars Rebels Season 2 Episode 11 A Princess on Lothal. For the reviews, I watched The Good The Bad and The Ugly and cover Lightsaber Form II Makashi.

For the Life Tip, I talk about how lists have become easier to manage in recent years.

(Life of an Accounting Droid) Life of an Accounting Droid Suicide Squad Official Trailer 1

Today we got the first official trailer to Suicide Squad, coming August 2016. While I don't know too much of its backstory, we do get a movie that is more from the "villain's" point of view including the Joker, Harley Quinn and Deadshot. The trailer is pretty well done but what I like the most from it is the underbelly, pseudo-Vegas feel of the towns and environment. While there is not much as far as plot, we do learn that the squad is assembled to take on some threat and it would seem that some havoc ensues. In any case, the movie looks quite intriguing and I can't wait to see how it fits into the DC film world. Of course, the trailer is helped with Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody interspersed with lines like "We're bad guys, it's what we do."

(Life of an Accounting Droid) Life of an Accounting Droid Star Wars Rebels Season Two Mid-Season Trailer

Today, we got a nice big 3 minute 28 second trailer for the second half of season 2 for Star Wars Rebels and it is quite packed. We already know about the introduction of Princess Leia to the series but we also get a few other gems. We got a lot more Darth Vader and his inquisitors as they chase down the rebels. In this preview we also see Ahsoka showing off Anakin to Ezra most likely in what can be done with the Force and probably who Darth Vader is under the armor. We also see that through the force, Anakin reaches out and talks to Ahsoka so maybe we'll see some reconciliation or understanding of where they're at in this timeframe. The other piece is the continued training of Ezra in the ways of the force. In this we Ezra talking to Yoda, who I'm hoping is not a ghost as well as Kanaan in some sort of temple or academy. Finally, we see Ezra most likely building a new lightsaber along with holding a crossguard lightsaber along the lines of Kylo Ren. This part of the trailer seemed most intriguing as Ezra was in some sort of Tron like room.
