Oh great. The Nazi one. Michael and Abe dissect the very problematic production of Apt Pupil as well as the differences between the film’s execution and the novel. Did y’all know that David Schwimmer is in this? Crazy. Anyway, we also decided which Stephen King adaptation we’ll cover next time! So, you know, you can watch it before! See! We’re prepared!

Your discussion of Brian Singer's own demons evident in the cloth of this film, and it's possible retardation of a deeper analysis of the themes within the film I think warrant the discussion. Seems like an example of Slavoj Zizek's real real, the horrors of a boarder reality underlying the film.

I want to hear the Dark Tower episode just so I can hear someone talk about The Dark Tower. That's the series that got King's hooks in me. A spin of Ka's wheel later here's KoK. I'm sure the movie sucks but damn do I love those books. How about a very special episode where the guys discuss this epic sprawling series of the ka-tet?
