The Director’s Cut vs. When In Rome

When In Rome, do as Kristen Bell does...
When In Rome, do as Kristen Bell does...

This week, the Director’s Cut reviews When In Rome and The Edge of Darkness; but mainly When In Rome. Why, you ask? Because, once again, Sean was too good to see the movie of the week. This time, Dan and Ollie tag team the movie, and Ollie admits that he probably is Umberto (the hypersexual Italian brother-in-law). The guys had a lot to say, so be sure to check out their review. Plus, since Davenport wasn’t able to do a pick this week, it was lucky that Sean’s movie snobbery got the better of him and compelled him to see Edge of Darkness. His review makes Ollie mad and they go round and round. Regardless, the show was nuts. Dan instigates problems, Ollie gets amped and sings for three minutes, and Sean… well Sean just hates everything. It’s just another day of the Director’s Cut!

The Director’s Cut vs. Legion

The week on the Director’s Cut we review the movie Legion. Dan was excited, Ollie was excited, and Sean… well nothing excites Sean. Which would probably explain why Sean went and saw The Tooth Fairy instead. Fortunately for us, Ollie (that jerk) started a new job and got dooped into staying late. Needless to say, he missed most of the show.  Plus, Davenport hits us with an interesting new review, talks about the movie Moon and his official pick is a movie directed by a friend of Doug Jones (The Ice Cream Man of Legion in photo on left ),  and calls Ollie out regarding a difference of opinion about Sherlock Holmes. That wasn’t all he had to say about Ollie either. Last, the guys also embark on yet another bet; this one involving Dan’s friend Brian, a Match.com profile, and a box of scorpions.

The Director’s Cut vs. Youth In Revolt!

Multiple "Personalities" are HOT!
Multiple "Personalities" are HOT!

This week the Director’s Cut crew reviews Youth In Revolt, ask the top 10 multiple personality movies, and add yet another personality back onto the crew! Debra weighs-in on the film as well, and we get a three-way conversation going… inside the listener’s head. Plus, Sean decided to make the mistake of going on a date to see Victoria’s Secret Panties (or something) and telling Dan; so naturally, Dan, Ollie and Debra hit him with the game we all know and love: 20 questions! Little did Sean know that secret voice from his past would call-in to help out. It’s the Director’s Cut! You know you love it.

P.S.

Davenport’s Pick: This week in…

2006: Cabin Fever
2007: Female Trouble
2008: The Orphanage
2009: Lady Terminator

The Director’s Cut vs. Sherlock Holmes vs. Up In The Air

Detectives are HOT!
Detectives are HOT!

This week on the Director’s Cut we review Sherlock Holmes, AND Up In The Air. That’s right, it’s another double review! Listeners get two reviews for the price of one! Dan didn’t get to see anything, but that’s ok, Sean and Ollie cut to the quick as quickly as they can (which means then dragged out the review as long as they could.) Dan gets Ollie riled up when he puts him on the spot after the first review and the guys count down the top 10 detective movies, while spreading holiday cheer with a number of songs from Merkin Claus.

Captain KY Jelly, the only brand that The Director's Cut crew trusts.

In the spirit of giving and receiving, the guys open a very suspicious package from none other than Captain KY! The crew each get a gift from the show’s most insa… we mean DEDICATED fan! Dan, Ollie, and Sean open their gifts on-air to the shock and horror of all of us! Apparently the Riggler Recipe is just what the Captain ordered. It’s all on The Director’s Cut, the 2 hour show all about the movies!

The Director’s Cut vs. Avatar!

Hot smurfs are HOT!

 This week we review the most expensive movie in history: Avatar! Yes, yes, Dan and Ollie checked out the full 3-D experience to give the most honest and knowledgable review they could possibly do (yeah, right). Just to cover all of our bases, Sean saw the 2-D version, so that the guys could compare and contrast. Dan also reveals some revolutionary ideas he has for 3-D and Ollie tells us about his favorite part.

Last, but certainly NOT least, we have a very special surprise for Davenport’s pick of the week: A surprise interview with none other than legendary, metal icon and Davenport idol, Jon Mikl Thor!!!! That’s right, Jon Mikl Thor from the essential Davenport pick: Rock N’ Roll Nightmare! Surprised? Well, so were we. It’s yet another zany edition of The Director’s Cut, the guy’s show  about movies!

The Director’s Cut vs. The Informant!

The Directors Cut Takes On BRUNO

bw_bruno_baby_no_logoThis week we review Bruno. Yes, we check out our most anticipated movie of 2009. Yes, we are Bruno Freaks. We have followed him since the early days of The Ali G. Show. Ollie once had a physical relationship with him (that’s because, if you haven’t noticed already, Ollie is gay). This Austrian fashionista looks into trying to become famous. Throughout his adventure, we meet and greet the people that he meets. Listen to the review and find out for yourself. Are you In or Aus?

Bangkok Dangerous – The Directors Cut!

This is Nicolas Cage... The Famous Brother“Let the mane flow in the wind Mr. Cage, Let the mane flow.” This was the words the spilled out of Co-Host Ollie Riggle’s Mouth.  Ollie is a fan of Nicolas Cage’s hair well that’s because he currently has the same haircut. Well let’s take it a step further, Ollie is trying to emulate the stylings of Mr. Cage but he currently has the mannerisms of Ross from Friends.  Even though it is Ollie’s birthday this week he will still get the opportunity to stick his junk in a box of live scorpions.  But I digress. I don’t think there are many people out there that will stick their junk in a box of live scorpions for the sheer entertainment of our listeners. This week we review Bangkok Dangerous and we count down the top ten movies with “danger/ous” in the title.  Davenport gives a pick of the week that most film snobs will agree with him. So Enjoy the show and vote below for our next episode of The Directors Cut!
