Bald Move Prestige - The Way of the Gun (2000)

Much thanks to Nick Knol for commissioning the 2000 Christopher McQuarrie film, “The Way of the Gun”, starring Ryan Phillippe, Benicio del Toro, and Juliette Lewis. As dark, gritty, violent, funny, post-Tarantino quasi-western fable, we found a lot to enjoy, but wondered if the plot was too convoluted for it’s own good. In this we discuss questionable obstetrics, geriatric hitmen, and our inner outlaws.

Fear The Watching Dead - 103 – The Dog

A.Ron and Jim tear into “The Dog” like a starving neighborhood zombie tears into… uh, a dog. In the arms of the angel… fly away from here… Lots of stuff to say about episode 103, including our groundbreaking Travis = Lori theory, speculation about Daniel “Team Barbershop’s” El Salvador background, a debate about whether Monopoly is the worst boardgame of all time, and a “creepy Chris” theory.  All this and tons of feedback from your fellow fans!

Bald Move Prestige - 3:10 to Yuma (2007)

Thanks again to The Commissioner himself, Andrew Mount, for turning us on to a classic modern western that we had heretofore completely missed. Directed by James Mangold and adapted from the short story by the late, great Elmore Leonard, it stars Russell Crowe and Christian Bale among many others in a fairly star studded cast. But make no mistake, these two men completely make the picture, and their performances carry the day where logic and reason might fail you. We loved the film, Andrew, and we hope you enjoy the fruits of your latest commission.
