    While you listen to this week's episode you will notice that there are only two EftRoU crew members. Square had to take the day off due to a wild weekend in Las Vegas. So Mike and I talk about our top 5 movie characters that we would like to hang with and share some thoughts about the DVD, The Artist. Top Five Movie Characters: A couple of weeks ago we came up with an idea. "What if you had the chance to hang out with any movie character, who would you hang out with and what would you do with them?" We thought it was such a great topic that we are sharing the discussion with you on this very episode. Listen in and find out who we choose. Also tell us who you would hang with. Share it right here on our website or on our FanPage on Facebook. DV-Debrief: For those of you who saw my QQR you know that I saw The Artist on DVD. Well, Mike watched it was well.

    11/06/2012 Duration: 49min

    Greetings fans! Sorry we've been gone so long.  Life crept up on us and took us away for a bit.  Were back and ready to continue bringing you the best in discussion of entertainment.  In This episode were diving into Prometheus as our movie pick of the week and touch base on E3 for our gamer fans as well as the rumors of the "Iron Patriot" set pictures from Iron Man 3. E3 Thoughts So both Mike and I are the gamers of the crew and talk briefly about our thoughts on this years E3 expo. If you are like 'Q' you may not know what E3 is all about, so just to give you a little idea; it is all about what's next from the video game world and what publishers are working on.  Mike and Square seem to agree that Halo 4 looks like a solid game that will bring old and new fans back to the franchise.  Also our thoughts on the lack of new hardware announcements and if it's a good thing or not.

  • EftRou 161: Fire Fighters, Vetrinarians, Mindy Kaling

    15/05/2012 Duration: 51min

    So this week it was just back to Q and I.  We thought with all the big Network up fronts (basically FOX, NBC etc showing off to advertisers what is coming this fall) we should talk about our thoughts of some of the upcoming shows.  Also we kick things off with the Avengers bill for destroying/saving New York.  Sit back turn it up and enjoy the latest episode! Avengers destruction. So I was reading this the other day and thought it to be rather humorous as well as an excellent topic to talk about with Q as well as get our fans thoughts.  Long story short, the Avengers battle comes to about $160 Billion dollars and is considered an act of God, or as I put it "Puny God". Boobtube Babble Its that wonderful time of the year loved (or hated) by TV fans and advertisers - renewal time.  This year especially is proving to be a unique as many shows are either getting the axe after 8-9 years or have just run the course and its time to move on.  Right now is the time of the year in which most fans like Q and myself

Name That Movie The crew partakes in a fun game called "Name That Movie". Q toss's out some movie quotes to find out who knows their movies best.

    26/04/2012 Duration: 51min

    This week the crew gets hungry for The Hunger Games, we touch on the book and compare how different the movie seems to be.  We also talk a little about two Robot themed shows coming our way. So, sit back and enjoy another great EftRoU. Feature Flick We kick this week's show off by doing something we haven't done in a long time, a movie review... The Hunger Games (2012).  If you haven't heard about the The Hunger Games (Wikipedia), you've been under a rock, it's the first book of three written by Suzanne Collins and takes place after an unknown apocalyptic event. The basic idea... to help keep the peace and to remind citizen of a time that was much worse the leaders pit young men and women against each other in a fight to the death. Nice right! The film stars rising star Jennifer Lawrence (X-Men: First Class, Winters Bone), Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Banks (40-Year old virgin, The Next 3 Days) as well as many others, including a solid performance by Woody Harrelson.  Most people probably won't catch the su
