The boys are back on track this week and up to their usual hi-jinx. The show starts with some Academy Awards talk and its all uphill fro there. Who hasn’t seen one movie nominated for best picture? Are the Oscars the epitome of movie snobbery? Just how bad was Precious? When did movies that actually were popular and mad money stop being considered for an Academy Award? There are still ten movies nominated but only five directors? The boys then move along and discuss something near to the both of them; their love of action movies. More specifically this week thy talk about their top action movies of the 90’s. Yeah an entire decade gets whittled down to five movies. How many starred Arnie? Did Segal make the list? How many did both of the boys agree on? What is the difference between action and sci-fi? How did Paul Verhoeven put one over on movie studios and the American audience in successive movies? Just how important was Patrick Swayze in the American movie lexicon? How the hell did Nic Cage become an action star after an Academy Award? All of these questions get answered and so much more. All you have to do is listen. So listen why don’t ya?
