First, Pattinson weirdly plays the most normal character in David Cronen...

So, Adam and Thomas are looking back at the year 1977 in film with a double feature that has nothing to do with stars nor the wars going on between them. First, Burt Reynolds, his moustache and Sally Field drive across the southern United States with the precious cargo tha...

Then, Peter Farrelly tricks a bunch of acclaimed actors into doing horribly un...

Mike and Marcelo return to talk the Oscars! But why, you might ask... Well, Steven Soderbergh produced the 93rd annual awards show and it certainly felt like a Soderbergh production. Mike and Marcelo discuss what went right and what went wrong and what made the occasion a certified Soderbergh Experiment.
