The hosts review:
- Reminiscing about the joy that was The Hobbit (The recording, not necessarily the movie).
- Watching a movie, sitting in a recliner, being waited on… this is the good life!
- Jennifer Lawrence is talented, don’t blame The Hunger Games.
- The many faces of Robert DeNiro.
- Two likes and one not-so-much.
- Discussing Paul Haggis’ career. He’s come a long way from The Richie Rich/Scoobie Doo Show.
- Criticisms on how to rub a drug dealer.
- How does a person respond to such extreme circumstances?
- Elizabeth Banks… Olivia Wilde… Elizabeth Banks… Olivia Wilde… what to do?
- How bada$$ is Liam Neeson? Come on!
- Brian Dennehy is AWESOME.
- Was she really a murderer? Was the recreation what really happened?
- Darrell would have preferred that scene be cut from the end.
- Should the detective have cared more?
- Darrell depressed Tony/Deuce.
- Tony liked the Lara/spinning car scene, as it seemingly jumped out from a mostly sedate movie.
- Once John’s plan was set, there wasn’t anything that was going to derail it.
Trivial bits ‘n pieces:
- The “bump key” procedure Crowe used actually does work on cylinder locks.
- The phone and fax numbers on the lab work are the real numbers for Med-Health Services in Monroeville, PA.
- Mark Isham, Haggis’ regular collaborator, didn’t compose this score due to their falling out over Haggis’ very public break from the Church of Scientology, of which Isham is still a member.
