David is joined in studio by Jacob Oberman and Nicholas McVay for a news lite, review heavy episode. Ben Straw from Ben’s Tech Show has sent us some kind words via voice mail and his opinions on “Monsters Vs Aliens” and “Fast and Furious”.

News is kept at a minimum today as David and Jacob both have colds. But we do look at Steve Jobs’ health and what Hollywood plans to remake next.

Jacob reviews the new Australian animated film, “Mary and Max” by Adam Elliot and gives it positive praise. David reviews Hugh Jackman’s new “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and it gets a shaky thumbs up. At least it’s better than “X-Men 3?. And David and Nicholas discuss the new Steve Martin film, “Pink Panther 2?, Nicholas enjoyed it and David thought it had moments, overall better than expected.

To finish off we play a small clip from the new “Star Trek” movie as a bit of a sneak peak for next weeks episode.

As always this episode carries an explicit tag due to small amounts of bad language.
