(Credit: DVDTown)Plenty of news to talk about, but first we recap our weekends. We all used the holiday weekend differently: Jeff sailed a boat (in the sun!) on the Potomac river; Wilson became the only Asian Agent Double Oh Nothing for Her Majesty’s Secret Service, and I had the unfortunate experience of actually laboring at work on Labor Day. Hear all the juicy details on the first half of the show.
Next up, we talk about Google’s latest product, a version of the popular Monopoly real estate game that uses Google Maps as a giant playing board! Turns out that this isn’t the first role-playing game to incorporate the popular online mapping Web site: users found a way to play RISK using Google Maps when it first debuted in 2005!
(Credit: Film.com)Speaking of things to come, we always like taking a look into the future, so this week in time travel, we bring you Boondock Saints 2! Every male born after the year 1970 should be well aware of the original Boondock Saints, which featured two brothers on a mission to cleanse their city of scumbags–classic story, but something about the theatrical gunfights and archetypal characters made it into a cult classic. We’re excited about the new one, even though it doesn’t feature Willem Dafoe.
Finally, in typical Monday show fashion, we delve off into a trip down memory lane and rediscover our love for Beavis and Butthead, who recently made a short comeback to promote Mike Judge’s latest film “Extract.” Surprise! Wilson hates it. All that and more on today’s episode of The 404!
