Episode 3: Man’s Uneasy Relationship With Technology

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

In which we discuss the etiquette of boring stories, attempt to make a $7000 movie and contemplate the sweet embrace of death.

Show Notes:

Dave was mistaken, Primer was shot on Super 16mm, not 35mm. Still pretty impressive for $7000 though.

On the other hand, Dave was totally correct in that Primer using a soft ‘i’ is a valid pronunciation of the word, for some definitions.
