If you listened to our first recording of Edge of Tomorrow, you may have noticed a slight difference in the voices of Cat and Carl. This time, Carl and Cat (Actual) actually do an in-depth review of this summer film starring Tom Cruise. There is schwarma at the end of the episode (@47:01) where we talk box office numbers and do a random sampling of years and the sci-fi films that were released in those years.

“That movie is off the rails!”

The first 20 minutes of this episode is spoiler free!

This week’s crew is Eric, Carl, and Cat and we discuss Snowpiercer. Carl’s obsessed with the stratification of society. Cat’s obsessed with the gratuitous snowflake. After we’ve kinda faded out of talking about Snowpiercer (@1:28:30), Eric becomes disgusted that Cat quit Game of Thrones and hasn’t seen Children of Men. At the end of the episode we have some great outtakes due to Skype issues; we suffer Groudhog’s Day (or is it Edge of Tomorrow) right here on this very episode!
