Josh is a curmudgeon - to no one’s surprise, surely - but he is in rare form as we tackle Wes Anderson’s take on the Roald Dahl classic, Fantastic Mr. Fox. Much like Ralph Wiggum on live TV, you can almost hear Clancy’s heart breaking as Josh carelessly grouses over a fine film featuring beautifully crafted, cleverly directed, and hopefully ethically sourced puppets.

What happens when you take bottle of Dan Brown, combine it with a splash of Indiana Jones, shake with aged Nic Cage and garnish with a withered olive branch of patriotism? A Book of Secrets, apparently. Your mileage may vary, but your goodly hosts are just about done watching a silly putty puppet with bug eyes and a vague air of racism toddle around after Cage’s hairline.

Yes, that’s right. Sean Connery’s final film. He turned down Gandalf because he didn’t understand the script (that’s right, Sir Ian was a second stringer!) and presumably had the same reasoning for turning down the role of The Architect in The Matrix. And despite the steampunk dumpster fire this turned into, perhaps there is something poetic about his character’s grave being the final shot of the film.

But that’s about as deep as this gets.
