Is the concept of the "Summer blockbuster season" dead? We discuss and debate what could be behind this year's lackluster crop of Summer movies, including the terrifying idea that perhaps we're the ones who have changed! After a word from our new sponsor, Audible, we take another mouth-watering bite out of our Michael Mannwhich Directors Series by discussing 1992's epic action-romance, The Last of the Mohicans. Does Mann still deliver when he steps outside his crime-drama comfort zone? And more importantly, are there truly no remaining Mohicans left? Find the answers to one of those questions and get a heaping spoonful of movie recommendations at the end of the show.
