It’s a two movie episode this week, starting with the Robert Rodriguez produced Predators. Mixed feelings on this one, with Jeff being especially negative about it. He does say alot of it may be down to the fact he watched the original Predator film just before seeing Predators. As a result Predators seemed like a much lesser film to him and just didn’t impress him at all. Alex and Dan are both alot more positive about the film, both feeling it was alot of fun. Dan does think the first half of the movie was better than the latter half which he labels “run of the mill”.
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice is the other movie this week, based ( loosely) on a vignette from Fantasia. While the sentiment is that this isn’t a great movie by any means all 3 hosts agree it was alot of fun. Jeff laments the lack of a proper mythology behind the magic and characters, something he thinks would’ve made the movie far more interesting and unique had it been included.
Dan becomes a man returns as Jeff and Alex attempts, with moderate success, to teach Dan to juggle. After that it’s onto this weeks video game, Crackdown 2. Again it’s mixed feelings on this one, the guys don’t think it has changed enough from the first game and the additions are very hit and miss. With the announcement of Dragon Age 2 the guys discuss what they’d like to see in the sequel.
We prey on Predators, lay the smackdown on Crackdown 2, give a master class to the Sorcerer’s Apprentice, and learn a juggle!
