Welcome to Episode #13 of the 4ever in Electric Dreams & CONFESSIONS OF A CURLY MIND co-production - Supple & Lean | A Geekcast.
Presented by Imran Mirza from London, UK, and Vahé Vishapakagh Koshayan from Melbourne, Australia, for this episode we dive into two cult classics: Jim Jarmusch’s Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) and Keanu Reeves’ directorial debut Man of Tai Chi (2013). Ghost Dog blends hip-hop, samurai philosophy and mafia codes in a meditative hitman tale starring Forest Whitaker while Man of Tai Chi brings Keanu to the director's chair — and into the villain role — in a slick martial arts flick about fighting, morality and spiritual discipline in modern-day China.
We unpack the East-meets-West aesthetics, the existential questions and discuss why both films punch way above their weight in the action genre.
The show today features original music from Supple & Lean featuring Balogneous Monk with 'Run N' Cut Ya!'.

C.E.N.K. #70: "Catching Up With The Classics: 2000" (5.2)
Episode #70 of the Close Encounters of the Nerd Kind podcast sees Tee-J, Imran and Dan settle down to classic movies from the year 2000.
For the fifth in our 'catching up with the classics' series, each of the team pitches three movies they haven't seen to the group with them voting on which movie each person should watch. This go-round sees the team explore the glorious gems of the year 2000 as we seek to fill the gaps within our own catalogues.
This is part 2 where the team discuss the films they saw including lengthy chat, laughs and analysis of BATTLEFIELD EARTH, BATTLE ROYALE and DUNGEONS & DRAGONS.
