  • The Moonies: The Matrix (1999) vs Inception (2010)
    Do you prefer that we all live in a virtual world while robots are using our bodies for fuel, or that people can enter a dream box created by the military to steal ideas... You tell me @HeroHeads and let me know if you agree. What is the Matrix? Neo is contacted by Trinity, a beautiful stranger who leads him into an underworld where he meets Morpheus. They fight a brutal battle for their lives against a cadre of viciously intelligent secret agents. It is a truth that could cost Neo something more precious than his life. Dom Cobb is a thief with the rare ability to enter people's dreams and steal their secrets from their subconscious. His skill has made him a hot commodity in the world of corporate espionage but has also cost him everything he loves. Cobb gets a chance at redemption when he is offered a seemingly impossible task: Plant an idea in someone's mind. If he succeeds, it will be the perfect crime, but a dangerous enemy anticipates Cobb's every move.

  • The Moonies: Braveheart (1995) vs Gladiator (2000)
    Even though both these guys have kind of lost their way, great actors and/or film makers. Two movies that defined the reason for putting a large television in what is now know as a Man Cave. Battle of the Man Cave Movies! Who will come out on top? To be honest it is kind of one sided and this ended up being a short episode.
