2.12: Dude, Where's My Scarface?

Published: Sept. 8, 2014, 2:30 p.m.

Special guest John Siracusa takes time out of his busy operating-system review schedule to join Lex and Dan for Not Playing\u2019s season two finale. Neither John nor your regular hosts had ever seen Scarface. We fixed that. Of course, Siracusa\u2019s known for being hypercritical. Will Oliver Stone\u2019s script, Brian De Palma\u2019s directing, and Al Pacino\u2019s acting be enough to impress him, or will Scarface need to say hello to John\u2019s little friend: grudging disdain? Hot topics include what makes a gangster movie successful, random characters who suddenly become the center of attention during the climactic conclusion, and man, is Michelle Pfeiffer beautiful. Want to support the show? You can stream along from Amazon and give us a kickback at the same time, or if you prefer iTunes, we roll that way too. You may be wondering when season three of Not Playing will kick off. We\u2019re wondering that, too, and we\u2019ll decide soon! Stay tuned to the site and our Twitter feed for more info.
