Hey folks. Ready for some more Action Features? Sure you are. In this episode, the boys get caught up on some current pop culture happenings like Total Recall totally bombing, Matty's misleading marketing, and some upcoming hero flicks. Oh, and they also introduce the new game that is sure to catch the nation by storm- "Apparently, I'd Rather...". So give into peer pressure and give it a listen.

Hey all. Yeah, we know... Action Features took another hiatus. Well it's back now with an hour of goodness, so hopefully that makes up for it. And what do the boys manage to spend an hour talking about you may ask? None other than the lean, green, fighting machines- The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. So grab a ninja slice, sharpen up your katana blades, and throw on your multi-colored bandanas... It's time for Action Features.

Episode 17 of Action Features gets off the rails a lot. In this episode, Mike & James try to give their thoughts on some current films and share their Pre-SDCC hopes... but like a couple of old men, they get caught up in ranting about things like how cool old toy commercials were and how much today's music stinks. Oh, and they also spend some time listing suggestions from Mike's Mom and addressing their apparent eating issues. So grab your feedbag... Time for some Action Features.

Episode 16 of Action Features is quick to the point, to the point no faking. In this episode, Mike and James discuss the merits of Nicolas Cage, the oh-so-delicious Mountain Dark Berry, and who would be on their 80's cartoon dream teams. Oh, and Mike eats a double dose of humble pie. So pick up the phone and get yourself some Action Features... all in 30 minutes or less.

You had questions, the Action Features boys have answers. In the latest episode, Mike & James spend about an hour answering questions posted by fans over at the podcast's facebook fan page. Ever wondered which one of them would win on American Gladiators? Perhaps you've questioned what their favorite toylines are? Or whether or not they are comfortable passing gas in front of ladies? They even settle some long held debates... Like which is better- Cheddar Cheese Cracker or Nacho Cheese Pretzel Combos? So stop living your life in doubt. All this and more awaits you in Episode 15 of Action Features.

Remember how cool Episode 11 was? Yeah, well so do the Action Features guys. That is why they decided to remake it. In Episode 14, Mike & James take all the things you loved about Episode 11 and replace them with more talk about the G.I.Joe Retaliation delay, the HBO show Game of Thrones, and the value of generic snack foods. Oh, and the boys also have a prolonged discussion on remakes... which is quite a coincidence since this is a remake episode. So get ready- It's time for Action Features.

Well look what we have here... Action Features 2 weeks in a row?!? That's right folks. The boys are back with another episode- A mere 7 days after the last one! Feels like old times. In Episode 13, Mike & James talk about stuff like the inexplicable delay for the G.I.Joe Retaliation film, the new Skyfall trailer, and a bunch of toys that they liked but probably shouldn't have. Oh, and Perez Hilton drops a tidbit of info that almost puts James in the doghouse. So sit back, stick those ear buds in their rightful place, and get your semi-weekly dose of Action Features.

Yeah, we know. It has been about 3 years since we posted a new episode. Well, we made this one extra long to make up for it. You may want to pack a lunch before starting this one, because the boys are here for about an hour talking about things like the new Shadow comic, iTunes reviews, and what Chris Hemsworth really looks like off-camera. But the real meat and potatoes of this episode is the discussion of all the films based on Marvel Comics characters, starting back in 1986 and working up through the current blockbuster Avengers. So grab Mjolnir, shine up your shield, and refill your webshooters... because it's time for Action Features.

Did you miss us? Yeah, we know you did. Well we are back now... so put on your dancing shoes because it is time for Action Features Episode 11. This week, Mike & James talk about things like Mattycollector nonsense, meeting girls at wrestling shows, the band Random, too many flavors of Cheez-It... oh, and one of those Terminator films. I think it was the one called Total Recall. You'll understand once you listen. So go do it. Now. You've waited long enough...

Double digits baby. That's right... Episode 10 of Action Features is here. In this week's episode, the boys talk about about Italian food, comic books, their favorite moment from the film "Batman & Robin", and the way kids are these days. They even give tips on bird feeding from Alicia Silverstone. Oh, and James gets Mike a present. Does Mike return the favor? I don't want to ruin it for you... but he doesn't. Go listen anyway. You'll thank us later.
