Through its obsession with pop culture, director Marc Webb's "(500) Days of Summer" is as much about romcoms as it is a romcom itself, full of stylistic flourishes, "Annie Hall"-like experimentation and non-linear structuring gimmicks.

In this episode, Mike and Brian discuss how that approach informs the movie's central coming-of-age themes, they talk cultural mile markers, how Webb and screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber are able to make light of young love/first heartbreak without discrediting the experience and, finally, they decide whether or not this film will make their top fives of 2009.
