[Interview] Jeremy Snead (Video Games: The Movie)
As a life-long gamer, Video Games: The Movie resonated well with me as it represented the de facto documentary on gaming. After all, it was created by a gamer, and the passion and understanding of the culture was very apparent throughout the film. I had the chance to speak to Jeremy Snead, writer, director, and producer of the documentary, about the process compiling Video Games: The Movie together, his views on the current state of gaming, and more.

[Interview] Ike Barinholtz (Neighbors)
[This interview was originally published as part of our SXSW 2014 coverage. It is being re-posted to coincide with Neighbors' theatrical release.]
Despite being an early, unfinished cut specifically for SXSW, Neighbors is one of the early comedy successes of 2014. Granted, we’re just a quarter of the way in, and the film technically doesn’t come to theaters until May, so it’s a bit unfair for me to proclaim its high graces. Nevertheless, heed my SXSW review of the film as early warning to you comedy fans: Neighbors is absolutely hilarious.
During SXSW 2014, I sat with Neighbors actor Ike Barinholtz to discuss not just his role in the film, but his Chicago roots, working on The Mindy Project, and I even got him to pitch us a movie idea. Ruby Hornet has already put a copyright on the idea, so you better think twice about stealing it from us. Check out the full interview over the next few pages, and remember: Neighbors will be in theaters on May 9th.

During the aforementioned SXSW, I had a chance to sit down with Neighbors' Jerrod Carmichael to discuss his role in the film, his experience working with such comedic minds as Seth Rogen and Nick Stoller, his stand-up career, and even his involvement with Odd Future's TV series, Loiter Squad. Check out the full interview over the next couple of pages, and be sure to catch Neighbors when it hits theaters on May 9th.
