We talk about the TV show and films and the nature of sci-fi on television and the problematic aspects of telling a convoluted story while still trying to deliver a dramatic narrative that has closure, etc. But mostly this episode is about Krycek.

Cliffhanger review (right click OR click)
This is a good one. I’m sure Nikil and the boys and N+1 have got quite the opinion on the portrayl of soccer players, esspecially strikers. He/they might want to check out this article written by Jay over at Filmjunk. It might remind Nikil about something he may have overlooked as his career as a film critic started booming.

We talk about this new Rogen/Apatow/Green joint while the women talk about shoes and boobs. Though this movie has neither pineapples or trains (two of my favorite things) it’s still quite good. email us with your complaints about how crude and awful we are: Futilepodcast@gmail.com
