2008 review pt.1  (right click or click)

We discuss some of our favorite films of the year as it comes to a close.  We note that most of the Oscar calibre films are not currently playing in our neck of the woods as such the podcast is lacking in the more high brow angle.  topics of discussion and thing mentioned briefly include:

  • Rule 34
  • Gary Cole
  • Rogen and Cera backlash
  • the rise of the pathetic protagonist
  • la Beouf’s multiple PR personalities
  • the joy of unexpected contextual and tonal changes
  • death by Daewoo
  • Hetero = Bad
  • Ellisverse
