Hackers (w/Jason MacLeod)

Summer blockbusters are always a huge success, right? Well... let's examine that with our month-long series: Summer Flopbusters!   Nathan and Brendan welcome back Jason to talk about a seminal guilty pleasure film - Hackers. The guys talk about the "iconic" internet movie from the chain smoking Baby Bradford to Lorraine Bracco's confusion regarding computer lingo. They also discuss the Plague as an intimidating villain and kids being able to access the roof of their school. Plus: Jason hearkens back to a day when one could take all night to download an episode of your favourite TV show.   The guys also drop a hint for next week's movie.
