002 – American Remakes of Foreign Films: Justified or Atrocity?
Plus, all Harry Potter Movies Ranked
This week, Da7e, David, Patches and Katey push through Thanksgiving food comas for a discussion on foreign remakes. What separates the good from the bad from the Oldboy? We kick things off by rattling off a few of 2013’s best documentaries (a few of which you’ll find on the Oscar shortlist), then conjure up our individual rankings for the best of the Harry Potter series. All that plus an Out of the Furnace-themed lightning round question on the best acts of revenge in film.

Review – Can Frozen Thaw Any Hearts Or Win Any Minds?
With Returning Guest Jordan Hoffman!
This week, we’ve booted David because he doesn’t like any 3D Animation and replaced him with his Jolly Jew counterpart, Jordan Hoffman (from Film.com, ScreenCrush, BadAssDigest, StarWars.com and your heart). Who got swept up in the grandiose nature of the Disney animated musical? Who thinks the whole thing could have gone better?

001 – You Won’t Believe What This Bombastic Podcast Says About Musicals
Or, How We Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Pharrell
Welcome to the first official episode of Fighting in the War Room! This week the gang’s all here to talk about musicals and movies that revolve around music, whether there’s a difference and whether the likes of Frozen and Les Miserables are keeping the musical alive. We keep the music theme for a discussion of new interactive music videos from Pharrell and Bob Dylan, then get quizzed by Patches on movie taglines that have been put through the Upworthy spin cycle. All that plus a lightning round devoted to the biggest cinematic turkeys of 2013.
