This week The Talkies chat about their Christmas experiences and Long presents Jacob and Alex with the surprise of a lifetime. The group then examines recent trailers that have one Talkie very puzzled. A discussion of what the Talkies have been watching leads to a heated debate about Melancholia where Jacob and Alex face off.

Long then starts whittling down the AFI Top 100 list with Ben-Hur and Planet of the Apes. Finally The Talkies move into the main review of Django Unchained. Just how well does Tarantino’s latest effort fare with The Talkies? Tune in to find out the answer, and maybe even hear a discussion about Kirsten Dunst’s boobs. But let’s not get into spoilers just yet.
