We had two special guests on the podcast to debate the best film in the Alien franchise.

Ron and David talk about The World According to Garp, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Ms. Swan's trust issues. I mean, why can't she believe in ghost stories?

Ron and David invite Cory Caplan on to talk "The Prestige," also known as "the other movie about magicians that isn't 'The Illusionist.'"

David employs the same techniques seen in Zero Dark Thirty until Ron agrees to see Makoto Shinkai's latest film: Your Name/Kimi No Na Wa. Will Ron like the movie? Will David spontaneously combust from effusive praise? Is that even possible? Answers lie within!
