0:00.0 | Speaking of things at the center of the culture, on a recent episode, we had Alex on to talk about 2011's Kickassia, which I know a lot of people listening to this podcast, even if they won't admit it, they saw Kickassia. |
0:16.4 | It is a film by Channel Awesome and the nostalgia critic himself, Doug Walker. |
0:23.6 | Well, we got a good response to that episode. |
0:26.4 | And that's why, with Luke, fighting for his life on the operating table, we decide to pay |
0:32.7 | tribute to him by talking about a movie that I knew that he would have a really hard time |
0:37.2 | if we made him watch |

1:20.8 | this is the thing. Why make these movies? I don't know. If that's a weird question. |
1:24.2 | I definitely think power and control has a lot to do with it. I mean, as I was sitting there today, you know, got up bright and early, had a hot cup of coffee in my hand. |
1:34.6 | And I'm like, okay, it's time to check into the factory and do my factory work for the day and watch all 130 minutes of suburban nights. |
