Show is pretty much ready, but won't be posted until late Thursday night/early Friday morning due to embargo rules... with Bourne opening Friday.

FYI - Another longish one. 1:15. I've listened to the whole thing and don't think it feels long though. To be expected with two reviews, I guess.

Looking forward to it. I think its time for a major disagreement; its been too long.  Not sure which film it would be though.

Any chance of us getting Sam's solo as a bonus .mp3 or are the two mic lines mixed forever on the podcast.

Because that is a great sample for a remix.

And I hear Sam has a glorious tenor that he can't wait to share with the world...

Coming soon to a theater near you...

The Real El Cantante starring Samuel Van Hallgren as a famous vocalist of badly sung love songs.  Also starring Adam Kempanaar as his explotive manager, Carrie Van Hallgren as Sam's wife with... Christian Bale as Sam's drug dealer, Maggie Gyllenhaal as Sam's coked-out ho, and special guest... THE GREAT CHRISTOPHER WALKEN as his idol!!!!

See the rise and fall of The Real El Cantante coming to a theater near you.  

I also loved that Werner Herzog joke.

Please no more singing by Sam.  I already have a very strange reaction to Sam in certain pictures.  Having his serenade delivered directly into my head makes me have unnatural thoughts about him.  It makes me feel unclean.

The singing was amazing lol! I completely agree with the Bourne series! I am a big fan of the films as well as the novels (particularly by the original author Robert Ludlum). I believe the film series will end with the third film for two reasons. First the story overall is complete, Damon might be burnt out a little and because Robert Ludlum passed away and didn't write any of the other novels in the series. Although the films overall are quite different from the novels the feel and core behind each seem to be the same. I think the films do a great job in capturing Bourne. But really I would love to see the series continue!

The Simpsons film was good but not great. But this film seemed to me to be coming out several years too late which may have contributed to me not enjoying it as much as I should have. I have been a some-what regular viewer of The Simpsons over the years but, I as many of the people I know are over The Simpsons or weren't Huge fans to begin with and would prefer other shows similar to The Simpsons. Sure I'll watch it occasionally both new and syndicated but the height of the show both in terms of fanfare and humor seem to have passed. I do think it recaptured some of the humor at its peak but again it just seems too late. However, it did stay consistent to the show and in the end that is all we can ask for.
