This week we watched Shanghai, a 2010 Neo-Noir Political Thriller made for China. But mainly we talk plants, humanity, and how we’re all at the whim of nature in the end.

 

Happy New Year Everyone! Have you missed us in our absence? We’re starting off the New Year right with an enjoyable (although very much of the time) buddy comedy, 2010’s Hot Tub Time Machine. We recorded this awhile ago, but thankfully my commentary on Family Guy is just as insightful as ever.

Thanks for sticking with us, believe it or not this year is the year we WILL finish this podcast. Come along with us as we finish what we started two years ago.

It’s a rare treat when we get to talk about a film that we actually like on this podcast, it’s an even rarer treat when we have declared fanatics of a specific film on to talk about said film. This week we had the opportunity to speak with Greg and Brian from the Mechanical Freak podcast to dissect the ever prescient “2012”. Roland Emmerich’s epic tale of the end of the world and what lessons we can learn from it.

In many ways 2008’s War Inc should go down as an important film in the cannon of John. A satirical look at the early 2000’s war on terror and corporate America that John co-wrote, produced, and starred in. How does the satire hold up? Depends on who ya ask, at the very least War Inc is a time capsule of post 9/11 insanity.
