There are some that laugh at James Cameron’s Avatar movies but Cameron, so far, has always got the last laugh on them all the way to the bank. The first two Avatar movies are the first and third highest grossing movies of all times, not accounting for inflation. Take that internet trolls! Now Cameron is looking to laugh again with his third Avatar movie, “Avatar: Fire And Ash.” Our main characters, Jake Sully, and his Na’vi wife, Neytiri return to pick up the pieces on Pandora after the chaos...

There are some that laugh at James Cameron’s Avatar movies but Cameron, so far, has always got the last laugh on them all the way to the bank. The first two Avatar movies are the first and third highest grossing movies of all times, not accounting for inflation. Take that internet trolls! Now Cameron is looking to laugh again with his third Avatar movie, “Avatar: Fire And Ash.” Our main characters, Jake Sully, and his Na’vi wife, Neytiri return to pick up the pieces on Pandora after the chaos from the last movie. They have to deal with an unspeakable tragedy in their family, all the while, trying to evade capture, or worse, by the evil Colonel Quaritch and the “sky people.” They desperately want Jake for what they see as treason, and also to be able to exploit the planet Pandora for all its resources. Now a potentially game-changing development, involving human breathing on Pandora, creates an even bigger potential threat to the Na’vi. Commonly referred to Dances With Smurfs or Ferngully In Space, the Avatar movies are Cameron’s environmentalist afterschool specials wrapped up in a CGI extravaganza. Is it worth seeing at the theater? Check out this episode to find out! “Avatar: Fire And Ash” stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Oona Chaplin, Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Brendan Cowell, Jemaine Clement, Giovanni Ribisi, David Thewlis and Jack Champion.

Gross Anatomy Gross Anatomy Podcast Gross Antaomy is where pop culture and health culture meet.Dr. Jason Cohen and Ali address medical questions that the doc is asked by friends, family, and often strangers.We also love to talk pop culture and how it relates to health and medicine — like celebrity diets, Amy Schumer speaking out about endometriosis and our doctor reviews of medical TV and movies.We also splice in professional interviews, check out our episode with TV writer and The Resident co-creator Dr. Roshan Sethi, or our interview with famous plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Rey aka DR. 90210, and don't miss our Q&A with Miss USA Nana Meriwether and many more! The Waffle Factory Dhanin Unnithan Meet our hosts : Dhanin is the medical guy and Anikesh the political/computer science guy. Each week we try to teach each other about things that caught our whimsy in the world of movies, tv shows, science and sports.*WARNING* there is a SERIOUS risk of waffle ahead Kairos Spiritual Formation Podcast Alex Tang Join me in a continuing dialogue on everyday Christian spirituality, spiritual formation and transformation, spiritual direction, theology, Christian education, biomedical ethics, Star Trek, postmodern parenting and science fiction. I enjoy reading and watching movies. I write and preach in churches, speak in conferences and lead retreats. My other vocation is as a paediatrician and a medical educator. Geek A&E Ellen Waddell, Alec Lambert Welcome to Geek A&E, an emergency department filled with movies and TV shows that have been viscously punched in the face by mass critical opinion. Pushing the medical analogy too far our intrepid hosts Alec Lambert and Ellen Waddell. Neither are medical trained, but they have both consumed an unhealthy amount of alternative pop culture.
