The TWU crew discuss a movie that was truly "unnecessary". A "comedy" that seems like it was written by a ten year old. That ironically doesn't give a whole lot of screen time to the titular Little Fockers. Please subscribe. This movie features multiple Oscar winners.
Plot synopsis:
It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam, and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get in with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, however, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. When Greg and Pam's entire clan--including Pam's lovelorn ex, Kevin (Owen Wilson)--descends for the twins' birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house. But with all the misunderstandings, spying, and covert missions, will Greg pass Jack's final test and become the family's next patriarch, or will the circle of trust be broken for good?

The TWU crew discuss a real acid trip of an 80's flick that was based off a cartoon, based on a toy line. If that's not enough to sell ya, here's the plot synopsis (in response to early feedback from previous episodes):
On the planet Eternia, Skeletor and his dark army overthrow the Sorceress of Castle Grayskull expecting to acquire her power. He-Man, his old friend Duncan "Man-at-Arms" and his daughter Teela are attacked by Skeletor's soldiers and they defeat them. They also rescue their prisoner, the inventor and locksmith Gwildor. He explains that he was lured by Evil-Lyn who used his invention, the Cosmic Key, to open the gates and seize the Castle Grayskull. He-Man and his friends retrieve the prototype of the Cosmic Key trying to release the Sorcereress but they are defeated by Skeletor and his army and Gwildor uses his key to open a portal for them to flee. They come to Earth but lose the key. Meanwhile, Julie Winston, who grieves the loss of her parents in a plane crash, and her boyfriend Kevin Corrigan find and activate the key, believing it is a foreign musical instrument. On Eternia, Evil-Lyn locates the Cosmic Key and Skeletor sends her with a group of mercenaries and soldiers to vanquish He-Han and his friends and bring the key back.

Shia would want it that way.

The TWU crew discuss/talk some smack about the sequel that stripped away any of the charm of the original and continues the story of a group of nerds who are truly horrible people (perhaps worse than the actual "antogonists" of the movie). Listen and Subscribe, Tiny.

The TWU crew discuss the most depressing entry in the "Rocky" series. The film in the series that got real about CTE (sort of) and had some pretty messed up behind the scenes details that no one really talks about now a days. This ain't no pie eating contest.
