Since word just dropped on a release date for Batman 3 (fingers crossed it’s 3D (not really what do I look like …?  okay sound like… okay well yeah 3D is dumb we all know that Roger Ebert thanks))).  I decided to post a bonus podcast taken from one of the many Zack, Blaine, and Ian discussions that don’t make it into a regular podcast.  Enjoy, this has much more Commando discussion then Batman though.

202. Popularity (right click OR click)

Posted just a few minutes before the end of my birthday.  Horrah I got a rejection from the SxSW film fest today for a present.  So I’ll probably post the said rejected short online soon.   I did a little too much work outside in the rain today, so I feel kind of bad.  I’ll just say it’s the end of the beginning.

Sorry about the delay in content.  We should have a fantastic podcast up here soon (check back Superbowl Sunday or Monday).  For now I thought I’d tide over our listeners with a contest!

  Here is the deal.  Just like The New Yorker used to have the write a caption for a cartoon contest (maybe they still do but that’s irrelevant).  I want you to write a caption for this picture of Futile Podcast editor and chief Ian Strope:

you can email your caption ideas here: Futilepodcast@gmail.com

 in the subject say Futile contest or something to that effect.  Include your caption (you may write as many as you like) and your mailing address and I’ll go through my box of watched DVDs and find some true gem to send your way!

thanks for listening!
