The show wraps with the great slate of DVD’s coming out this month.
As Episode 17 kicks off, Jason and Chuck welcome their special guest, Brett, to the show. We begin with a casual stroll down Speed Racer alley and then discuss Brett’s affectations towards Chuck’s dog, Juno. The guys discuss Burn After Reading quickly then move into Brett’s chosen profession and the accuracy of Scrubs.
While the Heroes season premiere waits patiently on all of their DVR’s, Chuck expounds the virtues of TiVo and ponders why anybody would watch live TV anymore. Brett breaks down the Heroes Season 2 DVD as Jason breaks down the week’s and next month’s DVD releases.
Jason then steamrolls into a pro-PC rant rallying off the “Vista Salesman” post from last week. Sides are taken, boxes are tweaked and the chips fall where they may, enjoy the sparks! As Jason finishes his rant, he ends with what is probably the worst analogy ever (seriously, it’s pretty out there) but it does lead into our title.
The geek wars continue as Brett talks about Batman comics, Chuck romances Loco Roco, and Jason plays Warhammer. The show ends on a high note comparing the humanity of modern day heroes.
Chuck and Jay open this episode with technology woes ranging from DOA service providers to DVR appetites. Chuck extols his love of TiVo and schemes to get to Harold and Kumar this weekend. Our buddy Ben makes it into the discussion again as the wayward designer living the life.
Jay reminisces about VHS and the speed at which movies are now released on home video. Chuck gets nostalgic about his first VHS and the old Showtime and Jerrold boxes as Jay remembers his first site of breasts (on Showtime of course).
Finally the show turns to Indiana Jones as Chuck talks about making Raiders in his youth but then slides into his first encounter with a Mac, the Commodore Vic20, and the lightpen. Jay remembers his early programming days then gets the show back on track!
The show wraps with a discussion about the movie, Harrison Ford’s box office supremacy and Jay’s take on the new Indiana Jones games coming out.
