The Hangover review (right click OR click)

I was too busy with one of these to join Zack at seeing the movie.  Sounds like I ended up with the better experience.

Pelham 123 review (right click or click)

Zack, Mark, and Ian discuss the new Tony Scott version of Pelham 123.  We talk about the original The Taking of Pelham 123 in comparison but mostly this podcast has to do with Zack’s obsession with actors and wigs.

Anime Randomness (right click OR click)

Zack, Blaine, and Ian do a perfunctory discussion about Japanese cartoons and videogames.  We briefly discuss:  Claymore, Gurren Lagann, Mushi-Shi, Quincy, Riddick, Call of Duty 4,  Jonathan Swift, etc.  Zack interrupts to steer it more into sports and we talk about “the love of the game”.   We recorded this self serving haywire episode at a coffee shop, so bear that in mind. 

Edit:  In keeping with the them of Anime I recently wrote a review of Ghost in the Shell director:  Mamoru Oshii’s newest anime film “The Sky Crawlers” you can check it out over at Zack’s Forgotten Reviews site: http://theforgottenreviews.wordpress.com/2009/06/08/review-the-sky-crawlers/
