Professor Bleak joins us as we talk about Hunger Games, Pool Boy, Convention Girl, raising money for low budget movies, and more. We also talk a bit about why it is socially acceptable to read explicit content but not okay to watch explicit content. Got a view on this? Shoot us an e-mail at Splattercast@DeadLantern.com
This week we discuss the bizarre ending of Mass Effect 3 and discuss how to actually write a script in our new weekly How to Make a Movie segment. Also, Steve tries Morgan’s meatloaf and unfortunately couldn’t get a picture of it. But the recipe is listed below.
This week we get into a long discussion about the disturbing/boring flick MEGAN IS MISSING. We also talk about how to prepare a movie concept and I try Lauren’s delicious Pasta Pomodoro! Her recipe after the jump, with my slight alterations.
LAUREN’S PASTA POMODORO
Ingredients
Half a box of spaghetti
1 can of diced tomatoes
1 diced onion (I used a mushroom)
1 tbs dried basil or a handful of fresh basil leaves or 1 tbs fresh basil chopped in the squeezy tube
3 tbs olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped garlic in jar or 3 garlic cloves chopped (I also added spinach leaves and parsley)
Instructions
1. Boil the spaghetti. While it’s boiling………
2. Put 1 tbs of the olive oil in a skillet and heat the onion on medium heat until translucent, add the garlic and let cook for a minute. Add the can of diced tomato, juice and all, and basil and let simmer for a good 8-10 mins. If you want it a little sweeter, add a teaspoon of sugar. A little saltier- shake some parmesean cheese in. Add the rest of the olive oil stir.
3. The pasta is probably cooked at this point. Strain the pasta and put it back in the pot you boiled it in and add the saucy stuff to the pasta and stir.
That’s it.
(I also garnished with a slice of Texas Toast)
Mat’s review: Both my girlfriend and I thought this was a tasty dish. It is quick and easy and definitely something we’ll make again. It is very tomato-y and though I substituted mushrooms for the onion, I couldn’t taste them very well. Still it’s a dish that can be experimented with so give it a shot!
This week we have Elgoro of Talk Without Rhythm and Bryan of Drunken-Zombie.com on as guests and we just talk about random everything for over an hour. Enjoy.
