12/29/09 Movies of the Decade
"Ichi the Killer" meets "Clerks II" in this episode. Josh Smith and Ernie Saracki guest, discussing the best, and worst movies of the years 2000 - 2009. The clips flow like wine tonight, from movies such as "Kill Bill Vol. II", and "Bad Santa". The best movies in the opinion of our panel scour the Orient, the Independent Circuit, and the major motion picture scene. The worst movies....don't receive nearly as much mention. But Renee and Josh agree: "Amelie" was AWFUL. May there be as much to talk about in the next decade.
