Review – Enemy … of Dudedom
| 8. March, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

With Special Guest Enemy Devin Faraci!

This week one of us is an actor, one of us is a college professor, we may all be spiders, and we’re reviewing Denis Villeneuve and Jake Gyllenhaal’s latest collaboration, Enemy. Badass Digest’s Devin Faraci joins us for a conversation about the moody, brain-twisting and effectively scary film, while also helping us wonder if it has anything actually interesting to say about the biggest problem facing us all: being a dude in these modern times.

013 – Four Adults Complain About A Celebrity Selfie Pizza Party
| 4. March, 2014

EPISODE_GRAPHIC

Four different opinions, one epic segment.

This week, Katey, Patches, David and Da7e are still winding down from Oscar Season and have decided to devote the entire show to critiquing the 2014 Academy Awards Telecast and a few Oscar recipients, so they can reunite and celebrate and even do some bets in the baccarat online, so everyone could have some fun. Each of the four bring a gripe for discussion and many an offensive tangent is explored from the social etiquette of selfless to a scolding for laughing at the dyslexic. Oh, also 12 Years A Slave begs the question if awarding Best Picture to race films dilute their reception. Hoo boy!

Review – Vacancy At The Grand Budapest Manger
| 28. February, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel and God’s Son of God!

This week we travel to the East, from Europe’s Republic of Zubrowka to the promised land of Jerusalem. First, Katey, Patches, and David give an early view of Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel, a film that might rank among the director’s best. Then FITWR-regular Jordan Hoffman prays movie-going audiences will avoid Son of God, an adaptation of History Channel’s Bible mini-series that chronicles the life of the the late Jesus F. Christ. Plus, we hijack your lighting round answers on film’s best hijackings.
