O.K. Video High Concept 90s Action 9 Demolition Man

Despite what I express in this episode, I don't actually have much animosity towards Denis Leary, I just don't find him especially interesting as an actor. But I never saw Rescue Me , so what do I know? Oh, this week we watched Demolition Man , the movie about the cryogenic prison that enables Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes to duke it out in a seemingly utopia future that hides a dark, Denis Leary-shaped secret. Pizza Hut or Taco Bell, who can tell them apart anyway? If you want to send us some fast food reviews or predictions about who will actually win the franchise wars that will surely erupt out of the chicken sandwich wars, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca, or tweet or instagram, okvideopodcast.  -N Demolition Man
