220 Buffalo Soldiers 2003
Released after 9/11 and the start of the war in Iraq this film left American audiences pretty damn angry. Criminal GIs and low life, if not outright incompetent military officers, were not going with the prevailing zeitgeist to say the least. Well, it’s now been over 20 years, why not join the boys as they explore how this film plays today?

Buck and The Preacher 1972
It’s an old movie that George has never even heard but Joe sure has. He watched it in real time, so you know it’s old, and so is he, but does it still work?

Cocktail 1988
Show Notes Look, a movie can be dumber than a box of rocks and still work…or not. We will discuss. But here is the real question, were drinking and dining establishments wildly understaffed in the late 80s? Because every place in this film looks packed and yet only one or two people seem to be on staff. WTF?
