| 0:04:06 | Mailbag | Technically covers some listener questions, such as “What do you think of Mad Max: Fury Road in silent black and white? But mostly a wide-ranging chat about film including good and bad CGI use in films, bad accents (particularly bad southern US accents), Steven Seagal's origin story, and how technology in film can consciously or unconsciously be used by film makers to make their films locked down to a very specific time or give the impression of existing in no particular time. |
Episode Notes
Ben argues in this episode that the episode number should be 16B as it was released after Episode 16. The motion is defeated. There is no opening theme on this episode.
