Sub-zero cold, blizzard conditions, a dead van, keys locked in the car, a thrown-out back, and problematic audio processing can't stop us from delivering this special 39th Birthday edition of View from the Couch. This week's flick-swap is MISSISSIPPI BURNING, while Michelle and the kids review two new MAGGIE AND THE FEROCIOUS BEAST titles available February 5 from Shout! Factory. It's all singing, all dancing, all observational comedy madness. Enjoy!

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 return for a new episode followed closely by Igglepiggle, Terminators, Buffy and Angel bad guys, Star Wars fans with no sense of humor, bullet ballets, and memorable orgies?! Don't ask me to explain. Dave calls it emotionally retarded fun. Works for me. Enjoy!

This week, everyone's favorite Willow-referencing, Goonies-loving judicial team magically romp through a mine field of Warner Bros. drinking the Blu-aid, quality differences between SD and HD/BD, the mystery behind CLOVERFIELD, looking forward to strange and unusual Jan 15 releases, and a brand new batch of Ambush Topics which spurns fond remembrances of Bart the Bear. Don't ask. Just listen. You can email the boys your questions, complaints, and suggestions at fridayfilibuster@dvdverdict.com, or show your support by voting for us at Podcast Alley, and Digg.

The new year kicks off with the return of THE FRIDAY FILIBUSTER. This week, Dave and Mac debrief the Christmas holidays; visit the non-typical fantasy of THE GOLDEN COMPASS; the stellar non-happy fun time of Tim Burton's SWEENEY TODD; holiday pick-me-up viewing of ATONEMENT and NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. After previewing the January 8 releases of 3:10 TO YUMA, ZODIAC, and MAMMOTH, the boys dive into their brand new feature: "The Ambush Debates." For example, who makes the better army -- Stormtroopers or Orcs? You make the call. Enjoy!
