Mass Moviecide PREGAME! The One About TEXTING AND DRIVING, HARLEY QUINN, THE FOOD NETWORK, and FIFTY SHADES OF GREY

September 08, 2013 22:08 - 40 minutes - 18.5 MB

This week we ready for our MOVIECIDE episode by discussing how dumb it is to text and drive. We ponder why anyone would be upset by DC’s most reason art contest (requesting nude depictions of Harley Quinn ending her life).  We note that the beginning of the end has arrived for The Food Network, and then we wrap things up by discussing what is possibly the most important movement of all time; the petition to re-cast Fifty Shades of Grey. JOIN US for another Mass Moviecide PREGAME!
