The Film Thugs Movie Show

February 5th 2010 is the most important date in the history of this show. That was the night that we sat down and recorded our first three shows. We spent weeks preparing and psyching ourselves up for them and when they were finished we felt amazing.

How amazing?

Well, so amazing that in a fit of mild hubris, adrenalin, and beer we decided, "HELL WITH IT!! Let's do one more!" And it sounded like a good idea.

Basically what happened was this; two performers who hadn't had a chance to perform in years got a taste of it and wanted more. We were junkies chasing a fix. So, in an attempt to prolong the joy we went to Campbell's computer and printed John Carpenters IMDB page and just went for it.

It wasn't bad. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. In the end we decided that we could do better, so we shelved this episode.

Now, a year and a half after that night, we have decided to release the heretofore unknown "Lost Episode."

Remember, we started recording this a midnight our first night of recording after completing three shows. What you are getting is a type of excitement so pure that it can only be born of love for what you're doing.

We hope you enjoy it.

If there is one thing filmmakers love it's ending the world. Honestly. They love it. It's like the world did something to them. This week we decided to take a look at some of the different ways that filmmakers have seen fit to dispatch the planet we all love so much.

Is there a more iconic actor than Jack Nicholson working today? Think about it? Other than Chris Walken is there a single actor who can be as easily recognized in even the worst impression than Jack? No, no there is not. But before he became an icon, before he became that guy court side at every Laker game, that guy in the front row of every awards show that matters, before all that he was an actor. And a damned fine one at that.

A lot get said about this guy... Not the guy in the robe, the other guy. Yeah, the one smoking. It appears that many people have quite a fondness for this fellow. As well they should, he is one hell of a filmmaker. This week, in an episode that almost didn't happen... even after it did happen (more on that later,and much MUCH thanks to Matt, our technical savior), we take a look at Stanley Kubrick and try to figure what all the talk is about.

Who doesn't love a little "badaw-badaw" action every once in a while?
