Hey everybody! Big news!

In this very special episode of the Black Dog Video After Dark podcast we thought that we'd try something a little different! Instead of reviewing one film, we thought we'd do one year! We picked the year 1999 as it was a particularly excellent year for movies. So we each grabbed our top 9 films from that year (also recorded on the 9th day of the 9th month - woah) to chat about. In addition to this fun, you get to enjoy Dylan Rhymer's Ethel Merman/Tragically Hip impersonation as well as his tales of his own personal fight club. Duncan Shields either forgot what year we were doing or what movie he liked. Good times to be found here! Please enjoy responsibly.

Join Dylan, Duncan and Darren as we have a few pops and tuck into the 1975 dystopian roller-skating and motorcycle carnage classic, Rollerball! Enjoy Duncan’s in-depth history of roller derby, movie posters and Bob Ross! Find out which one of us didn’t care that much for the film (hint, it’s not the guy wearing the Rollerball T-shirt!) **note** we recorded this episode a few weeks back but then Darren went on vacation and Dylan enrolled himself in a Zeppelin piloting course, so apologies for the delay in getting this one posted (also a few things have changed in the real world since recording this, can you guess what they might be?). Please enjoy responsibly.
