On this episode of The Zach Snyder Cut Podcast, we dive into the complex world of Watchmen, a 2009 film adapted from the iconic graphic novel. Zack Snyder was cautioned on taking on this project as many considered the story impossible to adapt but ultimately a film was made and we view it as a part of our study of the directorial work of Snyder.
Hosted by Zach Snyder, this podcast series chronologically examines the directed works of filmmaker Zack Snyder from zombies to superheroes to fantasy and everything in between. The show is produced and presented by Forever Classic Games, an independent, clutter-free games and geek culture media outlet.

We recently discovered a subreddit called patient gaming and the idea of waiting for the end of hype cycles suddenly made us question how we interact and purchase video games. Join Alex, Zach, and Joe as they question their gaming habits and how having a little more patience could save money and create more meaningful experiences.
Note - Zach's mic was a little off in this recording.

Overcharged masculinity, exaggerated Spartan culture, and a mythical retelling of a historical battle are the foundations of Zack Snyder's second directed release 300, an adaptation of the 1998 comic book limited series of the same name by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley. Starring Gerard Butler, Lena Headey, David Wenham, Dominic West, and more does 300 hold up today and how does it fit in the overall career of Zack Snyder.

Forever Classic Games was given the opportunity to cover Twin Cities Con 2023 as media and we were lucky enough to capture short interviews with all three actors from Marvel's Spider-Man 2, the recently release hit on PlayStation 5. We interviewed Yuri Lowenthal (Peter Parker), Nadji Jeter (Miles Morales), and Tony Todd (Venom) covering everything from ways to avoid burnout while working in a creative industry to ways to stay motivated in hard times to a collective desire to bring these characters to life for everyone.
Note: We spoke to Yuri through a mask-friendly speaker which is why his voice sounds so different than the others.
To the actors, thank you kindly for allowing us to interview you at this event. Every conversation was truly a pleasure.

Released on March 3rd 2017, the Nintendo Switch completely changed how we play games. Combining portability with console gaming is something we want to have indefinitely and hopefully, we'll see more iterations in the future from Nintendo and other companies; Valve has already leaned into this with the Steam Deck. Join Alex, Zach, and Joe as they reminisce about six years of gaming on Switch and what they hope to see in the future for a potential Nintendo Switch 2.

It's a great time to be a gamer! Zach, Alex, and Joe lay out their most anticipated things in gaming for 2023.
There is a lot to consider when looking at 2023 in games. The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S are fairly available at retail and new games are starting to push the hardware more. The PSVR2 is just around the corner ready to stand against some of the biggest VR headsets and the ease-of-use of the Meta Quest 2. The iiRcade is still a platform to watch as its library slowly expands. The Steam Deck is quickly becoming one of the best tools for content creators and writers. Lots of major series are getting new entries such as Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, and more. Indies like Hollow Knight Silksong have us on pins and needles. There's just so much!
