Episode 26 – We are Superbad!

Posted on August 17, 2007

fg_postlogoOn this week’s show Kevin Carr makes his triumphant return to the Magical Studio in the Sky to aid in some Superbad-assity.

We also play back another Comic Con interview with The Film Crew’s Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett. Also, we run down our “Ten Best Remakes of All-Time” and await some hate mail.

Films reviewed this week: Superbad, The Invasion, The Last Legion and Death at a Funeral
