The Film Thugs Movie Show

Another Austin Film Festival successfully navigated. Here we discuss panels, lessons, screenings, and all the things that make AFF so amazing.

This week Jim and Hunter take a look at a wealth of new releases, from blockbusters like Captain America, to Criterion releases like Dazed and Confused.  Topics include the Austin Film Festival, the lovely personality of Tommy Lee Jones, and the pronunciation of the last name of John Cazale. Musical selections: Ted Nugent - "Stranglehold" Weird Al Yankovic - "Jurassic Park" Jim's note- The Film Thugs should be back next week with coverage of AFF.

This week Jim and Hunter flail through an unfocused show in the throes of illness and bad movies. Subjects include Kevin Smith, shitty "Crow" sequels, and why Jack Sparrow is a terrible lead character.

Every once in a while you are just wrong about something. It's difficult to admit, I know, but it happens. This week we take a look at times when our initial opinions on movies were incorrect.

Hunter & Jim fill out a thin week of releases by bullshitting about Morgan Spurlock's need for attention, product placement, rad Jet Li movies, and eating food, cuz that's what big guys like us do.  Usually while watching movies. Music choices: Clutch - "When Vegans Attack" Kinky Friedman - "Miss Nickelodeon"
