Probably don’t know about this Rutger Hauer sci-fi movie do yah?  Well Mark and Ian watched it so you won’t have to … though you might want to, I mean it has a mutated Rat creature that is a Satanic Serial killer?  I think … maybe.

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!

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.

Not quite as out there as the monumental 200th episode.  201 serves to tackle the problem of Nostalgia.  Better known maybe as the problem with memory.

Ian goes even deeper overboard into the rabbit hole as he discusses the problems of Love and Hate as they relate to movies … for the most part.
