Today on the show we review the very clever slasher deconstruction flick, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon. Then Doug and I get in a MAJOR fight about Bridge to Terabithia...Seriously, it makes our Death Proof argument look like a love fest. Word of warning, if you don't like tension (and some cursing), you might want to skip this ridiculous 22-minute UFC style bout. What can I say...we're too lazy to edit. Finally though, Doug and I manage to make-up in time to give out our awards for the best and worst of 2007 so far.

TMG #3--Reviews of The Lookout and Children of Men, Plus Listener Feedback About Our Review of 300
Apparently the marketing department who created the trailer for The Lookout suffered the same brain injury as Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character in the film, because they marketed this deliberately paced character study as a heist film! We also discuss what happens when a director actually gets the sci-fi genre right with the sublime Children of Men. All that, plus some listener feedback disagreeing with our venomous review of 300.

TMG #2--Reviews of Brick, 300, and Our Favorite Comic Book Adaptations
Today the movie guys explore the moral vacuum of the seedy underbelly of high school in Brick, graphic novel to film adaptations that got it right, and just how many times a script can include variations on the word, "Sparta!" Also, a very special segment about an exciting film maker named Scott Clements and his homage to 1940's style serials, "The Scarlet Avenger!" All that, plus a discussion about why "300" may be the first gay epic ever made and why French-Canadian chicks are so hot!
If you'd like to check out Scott's blog, go to http://scarletavenger.blogspot.com Make sure you check it out and give him some feedback and support for his project!
