In this episode, there's drama, bickering, fighting, sexiness, profound metaphors, and tears. And that's just the hosts! Desmond threatens to destroy Megan, and she rips his guts out. Is this a kung fu splatter epic? No, it's (500) Days of Summer. Also, has Megan ever seen Bat-nipples? And Married to Movies goes international. But don't worry, it's not scary... because there's numbers. And numbers help you.

Dead or alive, you're listening to us. You want tangents? We've got tangents! This episode of Married to Movies sees Desmond and Megan discussing Robocop.

And does the film need a love interest? No. The answer is no. Also discussed: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, exploding mutants, being shot in the balls, and Megan doesn't know anything about the 1980s except for Leeza Gibbons. Listen. You know you want to.

In the first edition of Extra Lives, genuine Aussie Aaron Robinson and wannabe Brit Damien Wilkens discuss the first hour of the immortal Chrono Trigger.

In this inaugural episode of Married to Movies, Desmond and Megan review 2008's estrogen-laced ensemble piece The Women. What the hell happened to Annette Bening? Can Meg Ryan still act if she can't change her facial expressions? Can Eva Mendes in lingerie not be sexy? And where did all the men go? All these questions and more are answered inside.

The original five X-Men are back, but they've changed. As X-Factor, their mission to protect mutantkind is the same, but their means are not what you'd expect. Art: Dan Panosian The above is from: http://www.earth-2.net/wallpaper/full/X-Factor_001.jpg

It's a new Bond, it's a new year, it's a new continuity for us, and we're feeling good here at For Your Ears Only. Well, the Brothers Wilson are, as Pandy joins the regular hosts for a third time. But Adham is less than happy. Listen as Mr. Fisher quibbles with a rebooted continuity throughout the episode when there are bigger problems to be faced within Casino Royale. Like how to pronounce the villain's name correctly, how confused the loyalties of major supporting characters are, and how the audio quality is changeable throughout.
