Today on Eat Pray Judge we sit down to discuss Copland (1997). Sylvester Stallone takes a turn from action star to do some serious character work in this star-studded cast of acclaimed gangster cinema stars and Michael Rappaport. But does the movie hold up? Find out what we conclude today with guest and friend of the pod Jordan Rider.  We spend a lot of the episode talking about this film in the wake of the 2020 unrest surrounding nationwide protests against police brutality. It's a wild ride. 

In the wake of Cobra Kai's popularity, we decided to investigate the original text today and review The Karate Kid.  On this episode Gabe and Sami invite friend of the pod, and fellow 80's baby Zilla Vodnas to help us break down the movie.
