In this episode, we talk two movies, one atrocious and one surprisingly good.  We determine that Fantastic Four is probably the worst big screen adaptation ever, but we all kinda liked Straight Outta Compton.  Because Benji's a whining baby, we have to shorten the show a bit, but we still make time to hear from Sorry Sarah and we throw out a major douchebag.  Plus, Scott drops some mad beats.

I dropped the ball on the editing, thus making the last episode's title make no sense at all.  So, I offer the intro that should have been.
