On this episode we look at a comic book writer's universe of creator-owned material making its way to the silver screen with varying degrees of success. We are not talking about Alan Moore (of course), because we said SUCCESSFUL film adaptation, so instead let's move down a few tiers to Mark Millar with the adaptations of WANTED and KICK-ASS battling it out like a good comic book crossover. This is inspired by the new to video KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE, and Bubbawheat from the sites Flights, Tights, and Movie Nights & Channel: Superhero will team up with us to choose a winner.

On this episode we celebrate the ability of computers to bring people closer together, even when one party is uninvited. Hopefully you don't see us invading your earbuds in quite the same fashion that we view the hackers in the films SNEAKER and... well, HACKERS. This battle between the old and young is inspired by an old standby of portraying masculinity in film, director Michael Mann's latest work in BLACKHAT. GUEST: Patrick McGill of Role Play Craft comes in to judge the roller blading contest that is 90s cyber culture as portrayed in film.  

In this episode, Dave discusses the film the listeners chose for him, Girl, Interrupted.

Britt also makes an appearance to talk about stigma and the effects of pop culture on diagnosis. Listen!
