On this week's show it's two war movies (a.k.a. Lisa's nightmare episode). Clint Eastwood's Letters From Iwo Jima, a companion piece to Flags Of Our Fathers, tells the Iwo Jima story from the Japanese perspective. The 1970 film Tora! Tora! Tora! depicts the attack on Pearl Harbor, masterfully intercutting between both the American and Japanese point of view. Also Lisa takes in the terrific spelling bee documentary Spellbound while Jeff watches Saw III. All this plus Jeff and Lisa cast their imaginary Oscar ballots for Best Picture. Comments[2]

Jeff and Lisa break format this week to get caught up on their Oscar films, reviewing two movies that have very little in common other than the fact that they're both nominated for Best Picture. Seems like there is always one movie during awards season that is way over-hyped so tune in to find out which one of these films Jeff and Lisa think is overrated (here's a hint: it's Babel).

It's two fairy tales for grown-ups as Jeff and Lisa take on Pan's Labyrinth and The City Of Lost Children. Plus Kelly Leak gets an Oscar nomination! Also discussed this week: Saw II and those crazy woman-as-victim Lifetime movies. Comments[0]
