Episode 29 – Scott Pilgrim Vs Unrealistic Expectations

August 26th, 2010 Nick 3 comments

Hello Assassinites,

We have a great podcast for you. We invent/discover a new social media network though Nick is somewhat uncomfortable with it.  We talk about The Other Guys and the Expendables, but our main review is Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. Casey and Nick both enjoyed this film though they did have some issues with it. Also, we have the last half to Matt and Nick’s ten shows that were canceled too soon. Feel free to leave us a comment or e-mail us at contact@thefilmassassins.com and we hope you enjoy the show.
