The Optimism Club Vol. 33 (Hitler Will be Played by Ryan Reynolds)

We start the show by complementing friend of the show, Chris Hardwick.  We talk about stand-up comedy specials and how a guy we know is in one.  Also,  what will Bruce Willis be fighting to save in the next Die Hard piece of shit?  More importantly, of all the unnecessary sequels that could be made, the one that needs to be made the most is What's Eating Gilbert Grape 2 with Johnny Depp and Leo DeCaprio.  We go on to talk about racist cartoons and the horrors of Dr. Seuss's early work.  Why don't more people talk about this?  Finally Steve reviews the Flashpoint Paradox DC Animated movie and long story short, it was just short of sucking.
