The sensational Spielberg has been nominated for a super sickening 10 DGA Awards, 9 Emmys, 11 Golden Globes (if anyone cares) and 9 Oscars! Plus, more than a handful of lifetime achievement awards already at the age of 65. Who is this guy?? The president of Hollywood?

  Wow! I’m really excited about these two movies! Who would have ever thought we would get to see Aragorn fight Magneto? Or James Bond take on a dragon? These are going to be the most exciting movies ever made! Right?! …Wait. What? No Aragorn? No Magneto? Or even Bond? But what about the dragon? Okay fine! (More …)

  If there’s one thing to say about Episode 10 of Me Like Movie, it’s that it’s the tenthiest episode we will ever do. What makes it so tenthy, you might ask? Well isn’t it obvious? Anyway, Dave and I ventured out to see Hugo in staggering 3D! (For me, staggering in a good way. For Dave, not so much.) (More …)

  So after Dave and I ripped apart the trailer for J. Edgar a few weeks ago, I bet you thought we would never bring ourselves to see it. Well, unfortunately for us, you were wrong. Seeing all of the staggeringly great reviews we had to take a look at this thing. So, what did we think? (More …)

  iTunes • Direct DownloadSo it’s time for another episode of Me Like Movie, but I have to admit something first. Dave and I are NOT the hosts of the podcast. Obviously, it’s been William Shakespeare the whole time. It is true that he didn’t write a single one of his 37 “masterpieces” but he has recorded every genius episode of Me Like Movie podcast.

  Me Like Movie: Episode 4 – Drive (2011) and The Driver (1978) 

  

  iTunes • Direct Download
  After meeting Cannes Best Director Nicolas Winding Refn last week, Dave and I decided that the inevitable, totally awesome decision was to review ‘Drive’. It’s the movie everyone has been talking about, so why not join the discussion in our inimitable–or is that annoying?–’Me Like Movie’ type way?
  

  
  
  

  To sweeten the deal, we decided to throw in a discussion of a classic piece of cinema–also about a quiet man who drives really fast in LA, played by an actor named Ryan–the super cool 1978 Walter Hill film ‘The Driver.’
  

  
  

  
  NOW SPOILER FREE!!!
