Better Remembered: Season 2 Episode 8
Con Air

On this episode of Better Remembered we watch the 1997 action flick Con Air starring Nicolas Cage, John Cusack, and John Malkovich, directed by SImon West. Newly-paroled ex-con and former U.S. Ranger Cameron Poe finds himself trapped in a prisoner-transport plane when the passengers seize control. 

Also in this episode, we enjoy an Other West Coast IPA, talk about the upcoming London Fallout mod, discuss adolescent Catan strategies, talk about roles Nicolas Cage didn’t get, go back to June 6th, 1997 in our time capsule, play a little Steve Buscemi trivia, and discuss non extradition countries.

Join Scott and John as we rewatch this cheesy classic and ask, is this movie better remembered?
