A lazy episode for a lazy movie. Lucas and Dylan record while lying on the floor, in the darkness, to match the languidness our film this week, Floundering (1994).

Perhaps a bit more incisive than we originally thought, Floundering charters the early to mid 90s struggle of Gen X man. It's absurd, a bit amateur, and it falls on its face, but it's a curiosity, and certainly not the worst thing we've watched.

Previous Episode

Money For Nothing (1993)

This is it, the game show of Lucas purposely embarrassing Dylan and his encyclopedic knowledge of John's career. He was tired, and misled, so don't hold this performance against him. He will do his homework for the next run of it.

We watched the spectacularly awful and myopic film, Money For Nothing (1993). The message of the film is abundantly clear, "if you are poor, you deserve to suffer without respite." What if the moral/ethical question that's asked of every seven year old is spun out into a feature length film? This is what you get.

Next Episode

Bullets Over Broadway (1994)

A brisk episode, brisk on purpose. We had to cut this short to enjoy the autumn day, the sun and leaves of the mythic Pacific Northwest. It's not that we didn't have anything to say about this movie, or that both of us had forgotten most everything about the plot and characters.

Skip it, or love it.

John on John sucks, John on John exists to make Dylan look bad.
