Hey Wellander! Is that a subclan from Highlander?
Good show gents. Love the Michael C. Hall story.
Can’t wait to hear your Rambo review.
“She gets wet in the pants…”
I am going to kill you guys when I visit you next month! :P
Nice shirt, Doug:)
John, would it cost more to get the root canal in the States, or drive back to Canada and get it done there? I’m curious as to how your health care works up there i the frozen tundra.
Correct me if i am wrong but i think Paul thomas anderson is not a part of the director’s guild of america.
And no matter how amazing your movie is, if you are not part of the guild then don’t nominate you as best director. They can nominate it as best picture though which the golden globes did.
But i am not too sure if he is part of the guild or not.
Great show. Love the video. It also looks like Lucas is going to make a side deal now with the WGA to move forward on their Live Action series. It almost seems as though the Producers are irrelevant. Keep up the great work guys.
Agree with you on PT Anderson should’ve been nom’d for best director.
However, Atonement is put together SO well. The way in which it was structured blew me away. A novel that everyone said was unfilmable becomes one of the best films of the year. I think that says something. The unbroken tracking shot at Dunkirk is almost worth a nomination alone. Sorry, you’re wrong on your assertation that Atonement “shouldn’t” win.
And Juno is so over-hyped. You seriously found that script to be believable and best of the year? Honest to blog, home skillet.
I don’t think Denzel was nommed for this. I believe his nod was for american gangster
Splitting the 7th Harry Potter book is a spectacular idea. They should definitely do it
Is it worth you doing this in video? After ’seeing’ John go crazy about 50-Cent, i’d say so.
Short one: video rules.
love the vids keep up the good work
Whoa!
Doug corrected himself after he said the word “retarded”! Is he getting all politically correct on us? NO:)!
Gio—Didn’t Martika Da Dentist give you any Novocaine?
When I went to the dentist last, they even have a TV screen, and they will play a DVD for you as they fix your mouth. I was debating between hunting moose videos, but I decided n ‘Die Another Day’, simply because Bond was tortured in the opening credits…
********
I want to see The Orphanage. What sold me is Doug mentioning the score. Get a good score in a horror-suspense film? Gold!
********
Chris Tucker! I’d like to see Chris Tucker beside Pacino and DeNiro! Sure, Tucker would extort more change from the producers and be paid more…oh, by the way, Pacino and DeNiro had TWO scenes together in Heat, Gio. Two.
Note: Tone Loc was in “Heat” for two minutes. I hope 50 Cent has two seconds less…
********
Michael C. Hall is a BMF.
*******
GG: Why not–? Have actors at bars/parties at undisclosed locations and give nominees and a winner.
*******
Video’s nice….
GUYS.
You HAVE to watch this video. You HAVE to.

JUST DID !!!! YOWZA!! It has been pulled off of youtube like mad – they have balls
Keep the live shows … they are awesome. Always grateful for all you guys do.
Haha John! When you were ranting about Righteous Kill I totally thought that it was Chris Tucker you were talking about.
‘posdcast’ by Mac OSX Leopard. Last time it was named ‘content’. Could you use some consistent naming system in the tags? :)
Now it’s kind of hard to find the right stuff from my mp3 player, because the search searches only from the tags, not the filenames :-/
Hey Nagy, if you liked that, you’ll LOVE this.
