217. Fargo (right click OR click)

Mark and Ian, with a little help from Seth, talk about this slightly odd but not really that odd movie.  It was a big deal like 13 years ago or something.

216. LadyHawke (right click OR click)

Mark and Ian talk about the Donner disaster (too harsh?  probably) LadyHawke (pronounced “lady” “Hockey”).  Though the film has its problems, it does look quite good in places.  And that’s probably because they went to real places to shoot it.  Thumbs down to green screen environments.
