Hi, $10 & $30 Patrons! First poll!

Hello, everyone. As promised, those who pledge at the $10 tier or higher have access to polls that will help shape Renegade Cut this year. I have a dilemma, and I am going to let my audience decide because you are the people who actually keep the lights on. (Thank you for that, by the way.)

Ever since I started releasing the DCEU mini-series, people in the comments and on Twitter have been bringing up Star Wars: The Last Jedi. There are some parallels to how DC and Marvel fans interact ...

Script to DCEU Part 1

 AUDIO 1
 We are living a golden age and a dark age – the old quotation on the best of times and worst times but with something as unessential and, let's face it, silly as superhero movies. These films cost a hundreds of millions of dollars produce and hundreds of millions more to market – like a queen's ransom on top of a king's ransom.

Script for Faith/Fake Healers

Hi, everyone. Here is the script for the latest episode. It's a bit longer than the actual video. I cut a few things in editing.


 AUDIO 1
 In Leap of Faith, Jonas Nightengale cons small town farmers and the unemployed into giving them their money by performing phony “miracles.” He's assisted by his crew who gather information on those who attend his revivals so that he already knows what's troubling them. A local sheriff tries and fails to dissuade the town...

Hi, everyone. Big news. I am now adding more extras and rewards to my Patreon tiers. NO added cost to you. Just doing even more than before!

You're still getting all that, but now I'm going to start posting the script right after I post the video. That way you can get a look at it while it's still ...
