Just watched Side Effects. It's really, really good. Especially since you guys have done a Soderbergh and a Hitchcock recently. It feels like Soderbergh is channeling Hitchcock's ghost, and the results are awesome. If you like Contagion, you're gonna like this one. And it's streaming on Netflix!

I mentioned this in the chat a bit ago, since I didn't know if October scary movie would be a thing or not this year, but the Ring was one I suggested. Not sure if anyone else is game, but it is a weirdly twisted movie that doesn't always work, so good for analysis.

in the october films category, I spotted Sweeny Todd.  I say do that this October!  I know Teague loves to do musically leaning movies, and Sweeny Todd's a good one.

The official Lost In Space commentary on the DVD is well worth listening to, as the writer and director tell you exactly what went wrong, and the massive changes to the ending.

The problem with the From Hell movie, and the reason I never watched it, is it went against the whole point of the comic. The original was "OK, here's every known fact, with a bit of fiction to fill in the gaps to make it an actual story." So what does the movie do? Combine two characters into one and give him real psychic powers. Really? Way to miss the point.
(the end notes in the book are incredible. Moore tells you, panel by panel, what's fact, what's probable fact, what's an educated guess, what's pure fiction, and what he put in to piss off his Royalist artist)

I'd be down.

No. Don't even acknowledge it exists. It's like new Star Wars - as far as we're concerned they never happened.

Have you ever thought about doing a full commentary on a documentary?  Might be quite interesting

Yeah I've listened to them all. Hell I've listened to every podcast you guys have done!  I just thought if might be interesting if there was a documentary that you could do a full commentary on.  To be honest it would be most interesting if it was one you had a lot of problems with. Be it with the structure or the content or both.
