Episode 327 – Something’s Gonna Rupture

Posted on July 26, 2013

This Week: Kristin and Kevin have a huge slate of movies to talk about, including the huge movie of the week starring Huge Jackman – The Wolverine. They also talk about some smaller movies, including The To Do List (featuring no Aubrey Plaza nude scene, much to Kevin’s chagrin), The Way, Way Back and a whole lotta Ryan Gosling in Only God Forgives. But wait… there’s more! There’s also a listener voice mail about The Wolverine as well as box office predictions and home video recommendations. All this can be yours for three easy payments of $49.99!
