Dwayne, Jamie, and special guest star, Sammy, review the classic, The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. The novel is discussed in depth, the movies are mentioned and thoughts are had. Does the book hold up? Are the movies worth the film they are printed on? Did we find our Keanu Connection? Listen in and find out.
Dwayne and Jamie review Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, directed by Luc Besson and starring Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne. It was a bit of a box office bust but was it quality pop culture? Listen in as we weigh it's strengths and weaknesses and have to stretch to find our Keanu connection.
Dwayne and Jamie review Hot Fuzz, the 2007 action comedy directed by Edgar Wright and starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
