What Did We Just Watch?

"Whoever said 'Tomorrow is another day' didn't check the weather... Or listen to this podcast!" Sorry to rain on your parade, but this week we warm up to a movie about global warming and... ice storms? The year is 2004 and the North Atlantic currents somehow make frozen hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes in L.A. in The Day After Tomorrow. Our panel talks about Roland Emmerich's many strange choices as a director, wolves, Russian boats in Manhattan, how easy it is to survive -150-degree weather, and Bilbo's bromance with Dennis Quade. We also very importantly discuss how attractive Jake Gyllenhaal is in this movie. You won't want to miss this chilling disaster of an episode!
