Today on the 5: Over on Bluesky, writer Mike Elgan asked this question: "What are gamers' tolerance for AI-generated content?" in reference to potential AI slop in Fortnite. While I can't answer for anyone else, I know why I'm concerned about it.

Today on the 5: For one of our commentary movies this week, Lando randomly selected 1988's The Inspector Wears Skirts, a Hong Kong action comedy. I was pretty sure I'd enjoy it because Cynthia Rothrock is in it, but I'm happy to report that we both ended up having a great time with this movie!

Today on the 5: In memory of the magnificent actor Udo Kier, Lando selected 1973's Flesh For Frankenstein as one of our commentary films. The film is a well known trash classic, but the elements that created that notoriety were not enough to sustain the movie for me.

Tonight I'm joined again by Doug Bielmeier, teaching professor, musician, and host of The Process for another Late Night Double Feature! In this episode we're talking about a pair of David Lynch films, Lost Highway & Inland Empire. Two movies centered around identity and warped realities, this pairing offers both an introduction to Lynch and a head first plunge into the deep end of his way of telling stories.

Today on the 5: It's Thanksgiving in the United States, a holiday when being grateful is one of the core goals of the day. In that spirit, I decided to ditch the usual complaining about terrible tech companies in favor of highlighting one that I absolutely love: Rogue Amoeba.

Today on the 5: Every few months or so, we get another round of people complaining that the iPad is an overpowered piece of hardware and that Apple needs to unlock the true potential of the platform. Many of these same people have reported that Apple has no interest in either a "convertible" laptop or just adding a touchscreen to their portable computers. Doesn't that all point to a pretty clear conclusion?

Today on the 5: After Lando and I watched a movie so terrible I'm not even going to talk about it, I decided I needed to get that experience out of my head as soon as possible. I turned to my very long list of movies to watch and rolled the dice on a 2022 film titled Vesper. In every respect it was the absolute correct decision!
