Now, on with the show.
Let's be honest, we all love a bargain. Yeah, sometimes a knockoff is worth it. It's a little lesser quality, but you enjoy it just the same. It happens in movies too. This week we discuss the actors, directors, and films that are just a poor man's imitation of a superior product.
Also...
We are raising money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association on behalf of our little buddy Amadeo Andrade who was diagnosed with Becker Muscular Dystrophy in 2008. Last year, as a team, we raised $23,800 in support of Amadeo for MDA! This year our team goal is $25,000. We will be raising money until February of 2013. Anything will help and be appreciated, and remember all donations are tax deductible!
This year we are Amadeo's ARMY. Not team. Not club. Not group. ARMY! So lets show a great kid just how bad ass Thug fans are.
His Page Link is Below:
Amadeo's Army
Also here is the link to the team page if you would like to read a little about Amadeo:
General/Chariman of the Joint Cheifs of Staff for Amadeo's Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps.
Thank you for checking that out.
And we are still looking for questions for our "Ask the Film Thugs" show. Ask us about anything at all. Could be about movies, relationships, family, history, recipes, what have you. We will have no idea what your questions are until we read them on the show. Do you want you want to know how quick Jim and Clarkson came come up with some bullshit? Sure you do! So go ahead and ask away at thugquestions@gmail.com
