Movie Moan - So Many Simpsons References, So Little Time
Sun, May 17, 2009 
On this week's edition, Phil and Jamie are joined by their pal Ed Hocken whose working to become a member of Pod Caust. So jump over there, listen to their shows and let em know you want Ed on more often, dammit!
Among the many topics brought up on this special extended Movie Moan, the news of Chris Hemsworth (aka Captain Kirk's ill-fated father) being cast as Thor, the future of Terminator 5 and just who the Hell will actually make it, the much anticipated (by about ten people) film version of American Gladiators and how Harlan Ellison probably stalked Jamie as a child.
All of that plus Phil reviews Angels & Demons which Ed and Jamie refuse to watch due to the lack of Ewan McGregor full-frontal nudity. As well as the second edition of "A Memo to the Executives" discussing the next James Bond film, Nikki Finke, The Apprentice, Hal Sparks and exactly what Aaron Sorkin might write for television after Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip bombed a few years back.
And yes by the title of this week's show, our heroes quote The Simpsons...a lot.
"Heh heh, it's funny because I don't know them!"

That was a blast. Ed was very entertaining.
Jamie - Ron Howard direct a Bond flick? Really! From what you said about Angels and Demons sounds like he did already. lol
I believe that was Phil who suggested Opie Cunningham, good Sir.
My idea was for Bryan Singer considering he grew up during the 70s and I could imagine him being influenced by THE SPY WHO LOVED ME and delivering a film of that style/caliber.
