A star, known for his unpredictable characters on screen, signs up for an epic quest to rescue a girl from certain death. Set in the west, this movie has enraptured audience all across the world since its release... 10 years ago. The star? The newly not-canceled Jonny Depp. The movie? Rango. Cooper and Tanner discuss the movie, pontificating how this movie fits in with the grand tradition of the western genre, enlightening listeners as to the clever inversion this film performs, and wondering which came first: the Sandworms from Dune, or Rattlesnake Jake. We'll be back, hopefully with legendary co-host Matthew, to talk about The Searchers. In the meantime, enjoy this episode (our 50th!) on Rango: It's one heck of a ride and a taste of fresh water in the desert. This is The Screening
