Plus Harold Ramis, RIP.

This week, Katey, Patches and Da7e have many bones to pick after spending some time talking about Harold Ramis and his legacy. Then, Patches has discovered the embarrassing secret behind Son of God and the four hosts dig into a recent Salon article that suggests there might be too many independent films proliferating the market. This episode: Everyone with male genitals says things they regret.

Check out the Salon Article here.

A Pompeii and The Wind Rises Double Header!

This week is ripe with adventure as Katey and Patches grab their swords, slip on their sandals and scale Pompeii, the latest blockbuster from vulgar auteurist Paul W.S. Anderson. Then, after hinting at talking about it for months, Patches and David finally discuss Hayao Miyazaki’s final film The Wind Rises. Does the English version do justice to the Japanese original? It’s certainly not a disaster, like the movies you picked for this week’s lighting round.
