Michael joins Dave and Mac for one of the weirdest recording sessions in Filibuster's near 100 episode history. There's no 24 talk this week, but they do fit in a spoiler-filled discussion of the BSG series finale. Mac reviews The Tale of Despereaux and ABC's Castle, exposing his man crush on Nathan Fillion. Dave immerses himself in 8 Films to Die For and gushes about I Love You Man. Michael enjoyed his Race to Witch Mountain but was disappointed by Schoolhouse Rock: Earth. Recalling Saturday mornings with California Dreams and Hang Time. Horrible movie-going experiences. Characters with ginormous ears. Michael leaves Dave speechless. Oh, and don't tune out before the end credits.

Meanwhile, on the movie front, Mac justifies his disappointment in Cloverfield, Dave drools over the toddler-tossing, Hong Kong action flick Flash Point, and this week's Ambush Topic highlights include baseball films, unorthodox fist fights, and movie-inspired toys recalled for safety hazards.

It's a super-sized Filibuster, as Dave welcomes in Judge Erich Asperschlager and Judge Adam Arseneau to tackle the 2009 relaunch of the Streetfighter franchise; the unshakeable curse of the Super Mario Bros.; pulling punches with the big screen adaptation of Hitman; the brain scarring mutilation scene within Ricco the Mean Machine; unveiling the lost Canadian dub of David Lynch's Lost Highway; movie genres that should never be parodied; how soon is too soon to reboot a movie franchise; and the obligatory Willow discussion.

Shut yo mouth! It's a very special episode, the boys leave nothing to waste. An embarrassing case of premature torch passing kicks off a head first dive into the down and dirty world of Roller Derby; before exploring the breakneck pace of the new-improved Lost; giving The State the shaft; the cast of Firefly taking on The Sands of Oblivion; fondly remembering Hot Sunday's caffeine pill addictions and alien puppet interventions; defending the great Craig Bierko; and Dave's irrational hatred of fake British accents.

Two halves do in fact make a whole, as Dave and Mac come together for yet another action-packed, 30 min, Britney-free, entertainment extravaganza. Mac is underwhelmed by CLOVERFIELD but overjoyed by KING OF KONG, while Dave is jazzed by "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" for the PS3 and "Rock Band" for the Xbox 360. On the DVD front, three's are the magic number. Mac previews his take on Beauty and the Beast: The Third Season and Dave channels Mr. T for his critique of Criss Angel: Mindfreak: Season Three.

The weekend is upon us and the award (yet to be determined) winning show is back to kill another half hour of your day. This week, the boys tackle Jet Li, Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Peter Berg, Jessica Simpson, and Billy Bob Thornton. Escaping from that Hollywood melee, Dave and Mac dive head first into the Jan 29 cover art gallery, where power yoga meets punk rockers, video game champs take on oversized Maine alligators, and Ricco the Mean Machine visits the Barn of the Naked Dead. With only minor appendages missing, they hobble onto the Ambush Topic battlefield for a tour de force of stinky winkies, shark attacks, awkward time travel, strange creatures who dance well, and death by grinding. Please note: No foreign substances were ingested during the recording of this show. Enjoy!

Dave and Mac are triumphantly reunited, following Mac's diabolical computer crash three weeks ago. Sadly, this unfortunate setback booted Mac's Vampire/Dragon novel out of the "Write a novel in one month" contest. On a happier note, the boys spend this episode dissecting Bob Zemekis' BEOWULF in 2D and 3D and the quirky new documentary THE KING OF KONG; suffering the wasteland of new television due to the writer's strike; Mac's take on Cartoon Network's live-action BEN 10 movie; and perusing the upcoming releases for December 4th, including PIRATES 3, SUPERBAD, NANNY DIARIES, 24: SEASON 6, and BSG: SEASON ONE in HD. While it may take them a couple episode to regain their groove, Ambush Topics like these will carry them through: Hammers on film; Creatures with more than one head; Memorable tentacles; Who wins in a tag team cage match between Aragorn & Boromir and Inigo & Westley? You make the call. Enjoy!

Judges David Johnson and Mac McEntire are back in the saddle for another show. Dave shares his experience watching Nomad, the Warrior and its lack of "holy crap" moments. Mac loves his Monster Squad.

But the tide is stemmed by Live Free or Die Hard, which Dave calls "one of the more entertaining films of the summer." Previewing next week's releases, 300 rises head and shoulders above the crowd, followed quickly by Hot Fuzz, and Pathfinder. Ambush topics of the week: Best gun fights; Monsters that come in strange shapes and sizes; Just die already; Monsters that should be scary but aren't. Enjoy!
