Despite being set mostly on a train this movie is not as good as an anime series called Baccano! could be that 70’s era train travel isn’t as cool as 30’s? That’s not really a question though is it? This is the movie with Gene Wilder and hints of Richard Pryor though honestly there is far more Pryor in Superman 3.

*bonus points if you’ve seen Lost Highway or own this soundtrack or Outside, it’s all pretty solid

Mark and Ian make good on their promise and get back to this Clint classic. In this movie we learn that too much alcohol can make you think a monkey looks like an old lady. And that there are … good Neo-Nazis?

Any Which Way But Loose (right click here if you approve of the truck drivin’ arm breakin’ lifestyle)

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.
