Season 5 was Awesome!

Unlike most review shows, this is funny at times, but is also an honest review of the films. Also, the crux of the film is that people have to defend movies they have not seen in years; great flashbacks to my youth. A lot of fun!

Pod Addict T ,

Solid Show

Listening through, there are still some audio issues, but they have tightened up the show in the last couple seasons. Good mix of different genres, overall solid show.
