204. Hurt Locker and Basterds (right click OR click)
In my world there would be a different coloured Hitler behind each door.
We talk about two of the better pictures of 2009 as we play a bit of catch up due to our time away. Ian also talks about his distrust for documentaries while Seth and Zack talk about Fantasy Sports … NERDS!

Harley and Cabin Boy (right click for a double shot of 90’s goodness)
It’s another Futile Podcast about two of the seminal movies of the 1990’s.

Taking a break from the “high brow” discussion about technology in film I thought I’d post one of the last Futile Podcasts. There is a few more after this but then things may change a bit so be weary or excited.

Another 48 Hours review (right click OR click)
Mark and Ian discuss Walter Hill’s follow up and I have to wonder if the Murphy/Nolte combo could do with another film? Also, one of the bickers in this movie is the guy that played Wishmaster in the first two films.

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.
