Quite a bummer to start my weekend with. These guys were my favorite. Been listening to them since the beginning in 2007.

Does anyone have any recommendations for other movie podcasts in a similar vein?

"DANCE! DANCE! DANCE!"

Also, drink
and watch movies.
That's fun too.

I got to meet Korey earlier this year at NMX Vegas when both of our shows were up for Podcast Awards; he was a really cool dude. He was about the only person there whose podcasts I'd listened to before, so it was humbling to meet him, especially since he was really friendly and welcoming. Guess he might not be coming next year then. :(

drat...the Site was really gutted earlier this year with the loss of a lot of its content, but the podcasts have still been good recently.

Really sucks that they're losing their jobs right around Christmas time, though.

Edit: I wonder if Hollywood.com will retain the rights to "Co-Host 3000", "Goatsie", "Some Ol' Bullshit", etc.

It sounds like Hollywood.com will keep those rights. They wouldn't give them to the former Loading Bar people, even stupid things like the made up characters they had on YouTube.

I'm thinking about making them a cool little short film, because I still have my Co-Host puppet I made for another short film, and I don't know what to do with it. So I'll make it worth it.

I just need your guy's help with a few things.

Can you list your favorite Spill moments so I can compile them in an interesting way? I'll have to manually go in and snag them before the site goes down and all that.

If Korey is willing, he can probably ask Roosterteeth if they need a movie division since he's friends with one of the founders (went to college with one of them IIRC).

He knows a lot of people..I have to think he'll be OK. Not sure about the others though.

I have a feeling Tony (Co-Host) is just going to leave podcasts behind at least for some time, and Korey might too. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I'm more than certain that Rooster Teeth would take them under their wing if they worked out something. People have been clamoring for that since last summer.

Cyrus already has another website, Leon's got a day job, and Co-host I'm sure has some sort of back-up. The main problem I see is that Korey has been tired of reviewing movies and wants to move on, so I don't likely see a second Spill.com just like Rage Select came from Loading Bar's demise.

Yeah it certainly seems that way...he had been talking for awhile about wanting to go back into making film again, so maybe he'll do that for awhile.

Also, if you're going to make a Spill highlight reel, then it absolutely must include this review.

gently caress, this is the worst kind of news to wake up to. I was sad when The Loading Bar, LEOG and the few other bits were lost. I was hoping they could bounce back but I guess Hollywood.com were losing too much on it. If I remember corretly that website had losses too.

I hope the guys find another home like Jeff and Jason did with RageSelect. Sad days ahead. :(

He keeps hinting at starting a site alone, without anyone above him but he keeps saying he will announce something soon.

I've been listening to part of this call in show and it sounds like he wants to do a Kickstarter of some kind.

I missed if he said anything about what they're doing with the site content after Jan 1st though.

What he said was, Fungus Monkey is taking all the videos and saving those, and then he'll try and grab the audios after that. The hopeful plan is, Spill.com will still exist, but nothing new will be added. It would be like a archive site. Which, I guess would be nice.

All user accounts and posts will be erased from the site, though.

No word if Co-Host 3000 will have to change his name.

I would assume that's likely considering Hollywood wouldn't let Jeff (now of Rage Select, formerly Loading Bar) call himself Professor Jeff on the new site.

Vincent Damon Furnier, who we all know better as Alice Cooper, pays royalties to his former original bandmates because they trademarked the name. Things are funny sometimes.

I find it funny that normal names like Cyrus and Leon are trademarked to that one specific white and black guy.

Why do they even go by other names in the first place? Co-Host is one thing given the character, but Cyrus and Leon are the two that baffle me.

They picked those as stage names back when they were still doing public access TV and I guess they just stuck.

They both have other jobs and they wanted to keep them separated, I think was the reason I heard.

Sometimes they go jokingly over the top on protecting their identity that one time Cyrus (Chris) brought in some guy named Chris to prove that "driver" actually existed and not him slipping in his real name.

Really? At this very moment it's a little under $3,000.

EDIT: now it's breached $3,300. I won't be surprised if the goal is reached this week. I'll be putting in $100 when I get paid next week.
