CORT AND FATBOY: 'G.I. Joe,' 'In the Loop,' 'A Perfect Getaway' and the 'Star Wars' making-of book you've never read

During the Friday, Aug. 7 "Cort and Fatboy" broadcast, we discussed the following:

• Why I think "A Perfect Getaway" half-sucks on purpose.


• The foul-mouthed satirical brilliance of "In the Loop." (Now playing at Cinema 21! Highly recommended!)
  


• The raw uncensored awesomeness of "Once Upon A Galaxy: A Journal of the Making of 'The Empire Strikes Back'" by Alan Arnold.


• And, finally, "G.I. Joe." (Actually, Governor Eric D. Snider comes in to review "G.I. Joe," which I didn't see, but I do ask the Governor some follow-up questions. We also talk about Eric's gift for making jokes about dead celebrities on Twitter.)

[Milla Jovovich fan]

A Perfect Getaway is not a perfect thriller. It starts out very slow, though through twists and turns the second half of the films brings the picture to a better pace. Still, it is worth seeing for Milla Jovovich who does a great job as the honeymooning bride.
