This week Dave and Meg swing back to 2005 because we remember liking Constantine and turns out, it's not bad! We talk about how being in this movie seems to have frozen everyone involved in time (except Shia), how DIY all the demon rituals are, Peter Stormare having a time, Tilda Swintoning all over the place and of course we go over the shocking amount of drowning going on.

This week uncle of the show is back to help us poke 1973's Live and Let Die with a stick because it's kinda gross now.  We first talk about the creator of James Bond Ian Fleming and his drunken stumble down easy street, then we look into the figure from Haitian Vodou people with no right to slapped into this movie with no real care before realizing a lot about ourselves and movies and just how much nice suits in cool rooms can carry a movie.
