224. The Hunter (right click OR click)

Mark and Ian talk about Steve McQueen’s final film.  He plays a bounty hunter which sounds cool.  In the end the movie is sort of a mess of comedy, action, and drama based on the life of a real bounty hunter. 

music:

Jon Anderson - Loved by the Sun

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.

music:  NO MUSIC THIS WEEK (think of snow and cold but not Verspertine cold I don’t know maybe … like something Danny Elfmanesque)

211. Sword of the Stranger (right click OR click)

A good anime … a good anime movie … a recently produced good anime movie?  Yes.

We talk about anime in this one in particular Samurai Champloo (Spoilers for those too dumb to have watched this show already), Paranoia Agent, Last Exile, and a few others.  Most of the spoilers are minimal.  Now,  I’m going to go watch Samurai Champloo again!

Mostly it’s about handle bar moustaches and their sheer awesomeness.  It’s also about The Machine.

Transporter 3 review (right click OR click)

Frank gets in the car and with him of course is some dramatic foil.  It’s good times but not great times though their is a train so I can’t help but love it just a little more than I should.  Also, in keeping with our theme of pandering to women Zack’s newest written review for Punisher: Warzone is out.

 It’s director Lexi Alexander is a woman who, like Kathryn Bigelow director of Point Break, seems to be quite adept at crafting a terrible action movie.
