The Grand Budapest Hotel

Robin had a goal in 2026 of filling in blind spots for big name directors. To get his goal back on track, he’s picking “The Grand Budapest Hotel” directed by Wes Anderson. With neither of them being big fans of Anderson’s style, will Sam and Robin connect with one of his most famous pieces of work?   00:00:00 - Introduction & Guess the Tagline 00:18:51 - Movie Reveal 00:25:03 - Movie Discussion & Ratings

Napoleon Dynamite

Sam waited patiently, plotting his move. And then, with Robin defenseless, he struck. Today, they're finally watching “Napoleon Dynamite”. A movie Robin vetoed last year. But according to the very rules that he helped set, he cannot veto again. Was his reluctance towards the movie justified? Or will he come around on it?   00:00:00 - Introduction & Chit-chat 00:24:25 - Movie Reveal 00:28:18 - Movie Discussion & Ratings
