Local Hero and Avatar
29 11 2010We know, we know. We said we would do “No Escape,” and when we get that copy from Ray Liotta, we will. Until then:
We talk about the best signs at the restoring sanity rally. How the Westboro Baptist Church got pwnt, twice. We also discuss the TSA bodscanners.
Our rants and raves: Tom rants about Megamind, and raves about the book Denialism by Michael Specter, and Cecil raves about “A History of the World in 100 Objects.”
We review Local Hero and Avatar, Local Hero is lost on both of us. Tom gives it a 0.0 and Cecil gives it a 1.0. Tom gives Avatar 1.0 for the graphics and Cecil gives it a 1.5 for the same reason.
We go over the comments and emails.
Next time we watch Withnail and I, and the Visitor.
Vote for your choice of 2 for “The Road Trip”

American History X and Repo Men
13 10 2010This week’s Show:
We start out talking about the Rutgers student who took his own life because he was being bullied. We play a clip of Dan Savage in a you Tube Video, Here is the whole video:
We talk about the “Tyranny of the Left” and other nonsense and finish the segment with this parody add of Christine O’Donnell
We Rant about the MPAA and Hatchet II , we Rave about The Colony.
Tom and Cecil have fond memories of American History X, but the movie does not hold up. Both give it a low rating. Repo Men does no better, getting a .5 from both.
Next time:
Local Hero, No Escape, Jaws
Vote for 2 of these for flatmates:
1. Odd Couple
2. Withnail and I
3. Did You Hear About the Morgans
4. The Visitor
5. Happy go Lucky
