The crew also let's us know which artist are losing it for and they eat what?!? And yes Jazz really said that about “Rebel Ridge” star Aaron Pierre. We see if the twist of the film hit for us. We discuss M Night Shyamalan's daughter (Saleka Shyamalan) as Lady Raven, the concert converted into a “trap” for Cooper played by Josh Hartnett. We discuss what the hell were those creatures in that Forrest and if “The Watchers” was a good vibe watch. Do all movies where an animal is attached to the lead, does it make you think it'll end in tragedy? The decision making in “The Watchers” wasn't the best, much more and of course WAS IT GOOD THOUGH!??
