This week David, Josh and Dave make up for missing last weeks show with two feature reviews ‘Law Abiding Citizen’ and ‘Up in the Air’. A shout out to our friends at The Reel Junkies Podcast at weekendronin.com and The Movie Fan House Podcast at moviefanhouse.com.
News: Tim Burton remakes ‘Sleeping Beauty’, Danny Elfman’s music back in ‘The Wolfman’, ‘Clash of the Titans’ and ‘Harry Potter’ get the 3D treatment and ‘Green Lantern’ concept art leaked. We also take a look at the trailers for ‘Alice in Wonderland’, ‘Knight and Day’ and the leaked ‘Piranha 3D’.
This Week in Television: On the eve of the last ever episode, the two Daves examine the final days of’ ‘Dollhouse’ and the state of the current season of ‘Chuck’.
This Week’s Feature Review: This week we look at two feature films. First up ‘Law Abiding Citizen’ which starts strong and falls apart about half way through. Wait for DVD to enjoy a good performance by Gerard Butler. Then we move on to Jason Reitman’s new film ‘Up in the Air’ starring George Clooney. This is a wonderful, charming and grown up movie that is highly recommended to all. George Clooney is pitch perfect in the role.
This episode carries an explicit tag due to infrequent coarse language.
