This Week: Since the world is ending, Kevin and Kristin decide to continue talking about movies. They weigh in on the so-called family comedies The Guilt Trip and This Is Shit 40. They also talk a bit about Jack Reacher and whether Tom Cruise could kill anyone with a single punch. They also talk about Christmas plans, the box office, the coming Mayan apocalypse and cookies… always cookies. They also suggest some DVDs and Blu-rays, not that you’ll have time to buy them before the world ends.
