The Director’s Cut vs. Amelia

This week on The Director’s Cut Dan is out of town and Ollie takes it as an opportunity to mess everything up. The segments get ruined, the music gets messed up, there’s no Davenport pick, and the guys tell us what they think of Amelia. Fortunately there aren’t too many problems when the guys interview Tim Mclelland, director and writer of Fugue State. Also, Sean invites his girlfriend to help with the show which prompts Ollie to show his sleeze when he starts making moves at her and tries to break them up with a series of 20 questions.
Next week we have an open review because we are closing the polls for our top ten list (which is top ten Halloween Party Movies) and Davenport has a very special Halloween segment! This time, we’re going to tell you how to pick a Davenport’s pick,  and give you the top ten movies to play during your Halloween parties that will make your party unforgettable! It’s all on The Director’s Cut, the 2 hour show about movies!

The Director’s Cut vs. Where the Wild Things Are

This week, we went to see “Where The Wild Things Are” and this week’s Top Ten List is “Top Ten Childhood Memories Movies” – Sort of fits the movie we reviewed.  Davenport gives us 2 picks to take a peek at; one could quite possibly be the “Greatest Horror Movie of All Time!”  Sean Gandert gets heated in a “Where The Wild Things Are” Debate. Dan makes fun of Ollie – per usual. It’ll be fun 🙂 We eat pizza during the show – Because it’s almost as delicious as pies.

Our top ten list for next week is “Top Ten Movies with a Woman’s Name in the title” so don’t forget to vote:

This week we review “Couples Retreat” starring Vince Vaughn, Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau, Kristin Davis, Malin Akerman, and Kristen Bell.  Plus, we count down the Top Ten Women of Hollywood we want to see NAKED (hehehehe). Ollie took notes during the movie and we go over every single notation and judge him for what he wrote. Also, We need your nominations at podcastawards.com because we want to win that award. If we do, we promise more nude photos of beautiful women and and more merkin songs during the holidays – those were great, remember?

Remember to vote for your favorite movie based on a childhood memory for next week:

This week on The Director’s Cut, we review one of our most anticipated movies Zombieland starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, and Emma Stone.  This week’s we counted down the Top Ten Most Bad Ass Movie Titles – EVER!  Davenport has the perfect movie pick for throwing a party “42nd Street Forever Vol. 1” and we have a very special guest in the studio.  Sean Gandert hangs out with Dan and assists The Director’s Cut in surviving a Zombie Apocalypse movie.  Dan is finally less stressed out this week with work; yay!

Mysterious Being (me) had a friend from Minnesota who visited. They went to Old Town and bought some Cactus Candy; it’s a pretty good movie snack so those of you with a sweet tooth should check it out.  Sadly, there were no pranks played on Dan this week (except for what Ollie pulled) (I’m Totally running out of ideas).

Remember to vote for our Top Ten list for next week:

The Director’s Cut vs. Surrogates

The Director’s Cut reviews Surrogates starring Bruce Willis. Our top ten list this week was the Top Ten Movies with Actors or Characters with the Name of either Bruce or Willis (actors or characters with the name of both Bruce and Willis counted too). Davenport’s Pick of the Week is “The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas 2008” (check out the book, it’s pretty good). Dan is stressed out with work, and somebody needs to tell him to stop crying, shut the hell up, and do the show (Bruce Willis should knock some sense into him, althought that’d be quite painful).

This is the “Mysterious Being”. I work with Dan and he is seriously stressed out. I don’t do much to help. I generally draw on his arm with a permanent marker and change his desktop picture. This week, I decided that I’d take a screenshot of his desktop, and set that as his background. Then, I moved all of his desktop files into a new folder. You get the picture. Dan doesn’t know I did that, so this fact might come as a shock to him…

Anyhow!!! We need your votes for next week’s Top Ten list poll:

The Director’s Cut vs. The Informant!

The Director’s Cut vs. The Informant!

The Director’s Cut reviews The Informant! (Yes the title actually has an exclamation mark, it’s gotta be good right?) The movie stars Matt Damon, who gained a zillion pounds for this role. Our top ten list this week was the Top Ten Corruption Movies. (Thanks for voting everyone!) Davenport’s Pick of The Week is “The Sentinel (1977)” and Ollie Riggle skypes into the show.

This is the “Mysterious Being”… Just wanted to remind you that we’re now almost caught up with web posts of the show. Remember to check us out on the website, cast your votes for our weekly Top Ten list poll, and tune in next week for a review of the Surrogates!!! Bruce Willis is awesome… DIE HARD!!! Wooooo Hooooo!

The Directors Cut: We are Inglourious Basterds

World War 2
World War 2

This week on The Directors Cut Radio Program, we go back to war and take on the Inglourious Basterds. Quentin Tarantino’s latest movie  involves scalping and beating the crap out of nazi’s with a baseball bat. Even to our surprise, we came together for another week to bring you reviews, and try to pull you out of your stupid movie blues. Plus, Davenport calls in from CO and gives us a pick of the week. So enjoy our review of Inglourious Basterds and aditional movie whatnots. Give us a listener mail, and tell us what you want to hear about, on our show. Since we’re thinking about a little restructuring here and there. Oh yeah, Ollie (our former co-host, if you have forgotten already), we still think about you. Also, most of our listeners don’t think you’re an idiot.
