Find out how Kellen and Will felt about the characters' first impressions, the LGBT influence on the show, and just how many lines Travis Willingham had to speak as Mori.

Just in time for the summer to, well, almost be over, Tom and Derrick kick off The Summer of Speed with one of the most popular car-nographic film series of the modern era: The Fast and the Furious! Join the Boys Outta Brooklyn as they rev up their engines and race though all five adventures with automobile-loving rogue Dominic Toretto and the worst cop in the world, Brian O'Conner, in addition to the Roger Corman-produced car racing melodrama that inspired the series. All this plus listener mail, what we really want to see Michelle Rodriguez do, and the continuing debate over whether Eva Mendes is hot in her own right or a Raquel Welch wannabe! You don't wanna granny clutch that hoss, so get to clicking!

Join Hannah and Will as they travel through time and space to rate the modern companions on Doctor Who! Make sure to check out the Earth-2.net: The Show Shameless Pledge Drive by visiting http://forums.earth-2.net/index.php?showtopic=9344.

Truly a modern masterpiece, and one of Shana's favorite films, Jurassic Park continues to thrill with its nearly flawless visual effects, heart-pounding sound, and grandiose directing! It is, however, nearly 20 years old, so the question is posed: Is Jurassic Park in need of a remake? Listen in as Shana and Mike each assign the movie a new cast, tweak a few plot points and character motivations, and generally gush about it as a whole. Also, the next two movies are named, several more are dropped into the queue, and feedback is read!
