Seriously,  hot sammiches is the cause of 90% of accidents in the home, can scar you for life AND  leads to frivolous lawsuits, as we find out in this weeks cast  which, has a lot of news and revews to cover seeing as we have been away for a while.

To make up for our break,  this week we review “Never Let Me Go”, Mel Gibson’s planned  comeback movie  “The Beaver”, Brandon Routh starring “Dylan Dog:Dead of Night”; GI JOE and Billy Elliot  go behind enemy lines in “The Eagle”, and Jon Favreau’s Sci-fi western “Cowboys and Aliens”.
