Plus, Eitan has some qualms about the online discourse surrounding the film and our collective inabili...

Carl and Eitan did not enjoy watching The Social Reckoning, Apple's HomeView rollout, or the trailer for Narnia: The Magician's Nephew .

Finally, we discuss the latest pause in the Warner-Paramount merger and why the...
