Last week we posed the question: Are studios dumping a dud right before the summer season begins or is this Fast Five weekend an attempt to cut off the summer money a week early? Well, $85 million suggests it’s the latter. We review Fast Five (as well as give an overview of the rest of the Fast & Furious franchise), finish out our month of Billy Wilder as Artist of the Month on a high note,... 

For the past few weeks we’ve been talking about the potential of Water for Elephants as a break-out film for Robert Pattinson. How does it fare now that it’s here? Margaret offers up a review. We also discuss two more films of Artist of the Month Billy Wilder: The Seven-Year Itch and Witness for the Prosecution, with an interesting debate over what helps determine character development... 

Scream 4 was the movie most people were excited about, until the movie actually hit screens and the mediocre reviews hit the Internet. We chime in with our take on it before talking about a slew of William Holden roles as part of our Billy Wilder month, Sunset Blvd. and Stalag 17, as well as a non-Wilder movie, Union Station. Finally, we discuss the impact of Katie Couric’s transition to CBS... 

We’re back from a week’s absence. Unfortunately, hectic scheduling has kept us from seeing this week’s new releases, but we do discuss the merits of the original Arthur and compare it with the trailer for the remake (full review of the remade Arthur will be forthcoming). We start our new Artist of the Month with a look at Billy Wilder’s Double Indemnity and The Lost Weekend,... 

Sucker Punch left our critics feeling like they got punched, which we talk about in the first part of this week’s show. We also look at Gorillas in the Mist and Working Girl as we finish with Sigourney Weaver as our artist of the month. Finally, we discuss some new trailers that have made us reconsider our stance on Twilight icon Robert Pattinson as well leave us trying to figure out the target... 

We mentioned on last week’s show that due to some obligations on Sunday the podcast would have to be rescheduled. Well, it’s Sunday, and sure enough, those obligations are here (and they involve cake!) so we’re moving the podcast recording to Monday at 5pm Eastern. Join us tomorrow for our usual antics: talking about Sucker Punch, finishing up with Sigourney Weaver as our Artist of... 

This was a really good weekend in theaters, as our reviews of Paul, Limitless, and The Lincoln Lawyer in this week’s episode show. We also look at Sigourney Weaver’s Imaginary Heroes, talk about Comedy Central’s Greg Giraldo tribute, and discuss the latest entries in the super-hero world: Wonder Woman’s costume for the new television show and the latest Batman and Superman movie... 

We’re far too busy to continue talking about Charlie Sheen this week, despite Tim’s best efforts to kick us off in that direction. Instead we have reviews of the much-debated Battle: Los Angeles and the somewhat less debated Mars Needs Moms. We look at Sigourney Weaver’s comedies with Heartbreakers, Galaxy Quest, and Ghostbusters for our Artist of the Month selections. Finally, we... 

Rafe expresses guilt early in this week’s show over site traffic gained because of a Charlie Sheen article, yet that doesn’t stop us from cashing in on Charlie’s meltdown for the title of this week’s episode. Within we return to our normal format after our two week Oscar-laden break. Check out reviews of Rango, The Adjustment Bureau, and Take Me Home Tonight, our first week... 

You heard our predictions and hopes in the Pre-Oscar Roundup. Now it’s time to tear this doggie apart and see what we think. Listen as we analyze this year’s Oscar presentation, from our problems with Oscar.com’s “All Access” pass to our discussion of hosts and presentations to a breakdown of the winners and losers. We go more in depth with Widescreen Warrior’s Retrospectives...
