It’s that time of year again: where we gather together and offer our opinions, “if we ran the Oscars.” Hear who Rafe, Tim, and Thomas would give gold statues to if they ran the show. Some of the picks are predictable, others are outrageous, but they’re all in opinionated fun. But first, a review of A Good Day to Die Hard, Rafe rants about aging action heroes, Thomas belittles Dark...
