TFR Ep. 141: Looper, Pitch It
Chris Scalzo
This week on the First Run, Rian Johnson, a director that is currently two for two with Brick and The Brothers Bloom, returns with the time travel action-er Looper. Can Johnson keep the streak alive with the help of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis, and Emily Blunt? And how does Johnson tackle the larger problem, making a time travel fun, and easy to grasp without too many "wait a minute" moments. We'll review the big releases in Blu-Ray & DVD, and then it's the return of a segment we haven't done in a long time. Pitch It, where Dave and Chris try to sell their movie ideas to imaginary Hollywood big shots, and still manage to get shut down.
