Mike is an ex film student. Paul is a punter. Sit back in fascinated horror as they discuss filmic issues as varied as justifying an appreciation of David Lynch, and the merits of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s comedy acting chops. Along the way we will be covering; world cinema, art films, why we love the 1980’s even though they sucked, straight to video/DVD, and all manner of topics that show what happens when high and low brow collide. Also expect random cult movie, genre, and other pop cultural goodness. podcast,vs,stroker,chin,punter,csvsp,csvsplibsyncom,chinstrokervspunter,chnstrokervspunterpodomatic yes no Copyright 2012podcast,vs,stroker,chin,punter,csvsp,csvsplibsyncom,chinstrokervspunter,chnstrokervspunterpodomaticTV & Filmchinstrokervspunter@gmail.com http://archive.org/download/chin179/chin179.mp3 This week we kick back with an 'off topic' show where we discuss the Avengers, fantasy film/tv crossovers and the future of the Star Wars franchise. 05 May 2012 13:00:01 PDT chinstrokervspunter@gmail.comyesIrreverent and Irrelevant Film talk out of Englandchinstrokervspunter@gmail.comArt VS entertainment?

With a running time that befits the epic-ness of its subject matter, we ponder such subjects as; if ‘V’ had been made in the nineties (and in Canada) would it have stared Barry Van Dyke as Mike Donovan?
