TJ and Joe talk about food! No, really! That’s because this week, they had the great delight of reviewing the latest offering from Helen Mirren, Om Puri, Manish Dayal, and Charlotte Le Bon: ‘The Hundred-Foot Journey’. It really is a pretty fantastic film with only a few flaws and well worth seeing — certainly over much of the cruft at theaters the last few weeks. It has a wonderful story, but you might not want to see it while hungry! Also don’t miss discussion about Andrew Garfield and the blame game for Amazing Spider-Man 2’s failures, Tommy Lee Jones starring in a western (and it actually looks pretty good!), ‘Star Wars Rumors’, the first full trailer for ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1’, and heavy rumors about Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass returning to do more Bourne films — which sounds exciting to Joe and TJ!

Reel World Theology — The LEGO Movie and The Man Upstairs
We get to do something we don’t often have the chance to do (as of now) on the show– go back and talk about a movie that has been out for awhile.Andrew Garfield Claims Studio Cuts Hurt ‘Amazing Spider-Man 2’
Oh goodness. He thinks the film is bad because they cut stuff out of it? There was original MORE in that bloated incoherent mess? No, no, NO! The film was bad because the script was bad and no amount of monkeying with it could fix it.Tommy Lee Jones and Hillary Swank Oscar Bid: ‘The Homesman’ Trailer
This one looks to me like a bid to get in at the Oscars. And maybe it is Oscar material, might be too early to tell.STAR WARS SPOILERS - Aerial Shot of X-Wings and Millennium Falcon
Yeah, so, obvious spoilers ahead.RUMOR: Obi Wan Kenobi Stand Alone ‘Star Wars’ Film?
I know, I know, I know, we like to pretend the prequels don’t exist. I get it. But look, I agree that Episode 1 is unbearable, but 2 and 3 are at least watchable — largely due to Ewan McGregor’s role as Obi Wan.First Full Trailer for ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay’
I think this series is getting better with each successive film. That’s what it looks like to me. Mockingjay Part 1 seems no less fantastic than Catching Fire if this trailer is to be believed.Whoa! Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass Returning for New Bourne Film!
While I have never seen a pig fly, both Greengrass and Damon had led us all to believe that some bacon taking wing would be far more likely than a new Bourne film from them.The Hundred-Foot Journey — IMDb
The Kadam family leaves India for France where they open a restaurant directly across the road from Madame Mallory’s Michelin-starred eatery.The Hundred-Foot Journey — Rotten Tomatoes
Director Lasse Hallstrom does lovely work and Helen Mirren is always worth watching, but The Hundred-Foot Journey travels predictable ground already covered by countless feel-good dramedies.The Hundred-Foot Journey — Box Office Mojo
