Batch o’ Hatch: Super 8 Double Feature, The Community Debacle, and Josh Ritter

Time for a warm Batch o’ Hatch!

Super 8 Double Feature

Super 8 hits home screens on Tuesday the 22nd and we here on the other side of the Hatch can’t really agree on what we should watch with it.


Nick says Stand By Me would make for the perfect double feature, I think The Goonies would be awesome, and Tiff has never seen E.T. and understandably wants some of that action.

All of these films would make for great second features since they’re about a young group of kids on crazy adventures, just like Super 8.

But we need your help, dear readers. What do you think would go great with Super 8? Chime in below or, even better, on the poll over at our Facebook page.

The Community Debacle

As you may have heard, Community has been “benched”. The A.V. Club reports that the show is being pulled from the lineup to make room for 30 Rock (man I never thought I would hate 30 Rock, if even for a brief slice of time). I guess this won’t happen immediately, however – Wikipedia shows episodes airing up until December 1.


Nick and I are huge Community fans. He wanted me to express his personal anger towards NBC. Words like “heinous”, “repugnant”, and “quagmire” were thrown around. I’m thinking about organizing a silent candle vigil for the show, ala Season 1’s “Spanish 101” episode.

Anyone else upset about this news?

Josh Ritter at Café 11

We’re headed down to Café 11 in St. Augustine tomorrow night for a Josh Ritter concert. Nick featured Ritter in last week’s Music Video Monday and we’re all stoked to see him perform. Should make for a great time – provided I don’t piss anyone off again.


 Anyone a Ritter fan?
