In what could conceivably be our famed co-host Chris Piner’s last episode before his departure to the United States Marines, the boys talk about the many documentaries that they’ve been watching lately before diving into Edgar Wright’s new and highly-anticipated movie Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.  Also, in light of Chris’s likely departure, Chris makes his monetary predictions for all of the films we will review for the rest of the year.  Will his predictions be spot-on, or will they be as close as mile markers?  Keep listening to find out!

With only the voices of Handsome John and Sweet Baby Ray to sooth your eardrums this week and in light of the highly anticipated Iron Man 2 coming out the following week, the boys go retro and review the original 2008 Iron Man.  They also discuss their expectations for the new Iron Man film and they top off the episode with an original segment straight out of the mind of Mr. John Buck himself - a dramatic reading of Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone” from 1986’s Top Gun.

After stumbling over some simple linguistic limericks, the boys catch up with some recent film news, then they attempt to offer some insight on the recent Kevin Smith film Cop Out and the new remake of the classic horror film A Nightmare On Elm Street. Lacking the world-renowned wit of Mr. Buck, there is no “Brainless Blurbs” segment this week, but the boys do give us a taste of what’s to come in the future of the podcast.

Joined once again by their comrade Kevin, the boys defy their very nature and instead of reviewing a new release, they give us a “retro review” of the classic 1987 Oliver Stone film Wall Street (a money movie in lieu of of April 15, a.k.a. Tax Day).  Mr. Buck also gives us a few insights on the new film Our Family Wedding, and the charts begin as they start to keep score on this week’s Brainless Blurbs!

Lacking the charm and few hundred pounds that are Chris and Stranger Danger, the boys are joined by avid fan and listener Kevin (a.k.a. K-Dog) as they discuss Dreamworks’ new animated feature film How To Train Your Dragon. Aside from trying to decide how devastating dragon feces would be (or are), they try to determine whether this flick is worth all the hype it’s been getting. They also incorporate a new segment entitled “Brainless Blurbs” where Handsome John rounds up some of the short movie descriptions from the listings on his satellite TV service, and the rest of the boys try to decipher what movies they are describing. Although this time they don’t tally up the points, in the future they will keep track of everyone’s points and the loser will be physically penalized each month.
