Hey guys.

Was there ever a horror movie you watched as a kid (when you shouldn't have to) that scared you so bad, it haunted you for a long time? In my case it was the original A Nightmare on Elm Street. I got away with watching it when I was just 7 years old, and it messed me up so bad; I was literally scared to even looked at the actual VHS tape. I had trouble sleeping for weeks.

Rorie - I remember fantasm messing me up

Alex - Poltergeist fucked me up

Rorie - I had re-occurring nightmares of the space shuttle landing on my house, and having all oil poor out of it, and have all the astronaughts be cover in oil. I would just wake up all breathless. Not sure what movie caused that.

Rorie - That may have even been caused by Space camp

Alex - The original Friday the 13th

What is your favorite Disney animated movie?

Rorie - Tangled. Obviously.

Alex - I like tangled.

Rorie - I joke.

Alex - Excluding pixar from this...

Rorie - An American Tail: Fievel Goes West

Rorie - But sadly thats not a disney film. Its a Don Bluth production

Alex - I don't care about most disney films. Fantasia i suppose

Rorie - Lion king for me

Alex - I don't really like Disney films because I'm not a girl. I don't mean that in a derogatory way. It is just that Disney films are the princess fantasy storyline. I just didn't care.

Hey Rorie and Navarro.

I was thinking about the Oscars, and how they are usually predictable for all categories. Last year there was no way that that The King's Speech was not going to win for best picture, and Colin Firth for best actor. So what I would like to know is, what are some of the most surprising winners you guys can recall from the past decade or so, regardless of category?

Rorie - When Roberto Benigni winning in 1998

Rorie - Shakespeare in love over Saving private ryan

Rorie - Crash

Rorie - The Matrix beating the Phantom Menace was a weird un-academy decision.

Alex - District 9 coming up in the best film category was shocking

Hey Gents

Just wondering what you guys think of Workaholics?

P.S. My last two questions i have submitted have been about Quantum Leap so feel free to talk about that some more I'd hate to brake the trend.

Rorie - I don't know what that is

Alex - Its comedy central answer to Its alwasy sunny. Its rather foul, three guys live together, work shitty sales jobs and are all stoners. Its ok.

Alex - Its as raunchy as its always sunny but not as funny.

Hi!

What are your guys' favorite uses of slow motion? I could go on and list for hours, but one example that stands out, not even slow motion (just low shutter rate) is an entirely unecessary 2 second clip of Will Arnett and Forte jumping up and down out of glee in The Brothers' Solomon.

...Do you guys have opinions on that movie? Or Bob Odenkirk's directoral works in general?

Rorie - The Brothers' Solomon was one of those movies that i watched for 20 minutes but switched it off

Rorie - it just didn't click with me

alex - the opening credits are the best thing about that movie.

Rorie - As for slow motion

Rorie - gosh

Rorie - A lot of jackie chan and jet lee movies.

Rorie - Slow motion takes some skill to make it seem not forced.

Alex - Its down to a matter of tastes. I love it when it comes down to totally idiocy. The Micheal Mann slow motion while having a circular pan.

Alex - I FUCKING LOVE IT!!

Kermode & Mayo is always a welcome addition to the pod summary. Great work as always!

@skidd: When Matt and Alex talk about the American cinema going experience it makes my skin crawl. I despise people talking during the film. I've even been known to move away from friends that i've gone to the cinema with because they are nattering or nudging each other.
