Dwayne Johnson tackles his first role in which there is Oscar potential. Directed by Benny Safdie, The Smashing Machine tells the story of Mark Kerr, an MMA fighter going through major highs and lows. Matching Dwayne Johnson’s intensity is Emily Blunt as his problematic partner. Do Jim and A.Ron see this film as a new direction in the Rock’s career, or will the Smashing Machine fall flat on its face?

Jim and A.Ron watch the Spike Lee joint, He Got Game (1998) starring Denzel Washington. Not only is it a great sports film, it’s a great father and son film. Opposite Washington stars a young Ray Allen and Milla Jovovich. At the end of the day, is Jake Shuttlesworth a good dad and guy?

In honor of the 30th Anniversary of the release of Seven (1995), we're rereleasing the coverage!

Special thanks to our community commissioners Fernando Rodriguez, Flash Gordon, Jefferson B, Katie Gutierrez, cocoa2mc, pooljedi, Martin K, shockg11, Keith Alejandro, Ryan L, and jmyjnstn67 for coming together and making this podcast on the 1995 David Fincher helmed "Seven" possible. Neither Jim nor I had seen this movie in it's entirety, though some of us were more spoiled than others. We were surprised at how well the movie held up and managed to entertain despite the various exposure to spoilers. We discuss the film, it's message, our own bleak/positive worldviews, and much more.
