This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:38:02), we talk about Michael Winner's highly influential 1974 vigilante drama Death Wish, in addition to the second and third episodes of Gravity Falls. In part two (1:38:03-2:27:13) we talk in shorter form about 8 additional features: Peter Weir's 1971 Australian debut Homesdale, the first Broken Lizard picture, 2001's Super Troopers (directed by Jay Chandrasekhar), the 1994 Steven E. de Souza video game adaptation Street Fighter, the 1966 Vicente Aranda surrealist picture Fata/Morgana, Steven Soderbergh's fizzy 2001 heist movie Ocean's Eleven, the 1981 Roger Moore Bond entry For Your Eyes Only (directed by John Glen), the 1984 sci-fi/comedy classic Ghostbusters, and Tim Burton's 1985 debut feature Pee-Wee's Big Adventure. In part three, we talk briefly about everything else we've watched since last time, and make our picks for next week.
