On this episode of extra we explore one of the biggest conventions in North America, a talking dog, a crime solving priest and new adventures of everyones favourite wall-crawler. First up I give my take on crowd control at this past weekend's Tour De France and how it should be improved. Popular documentarian Morgan Spurlock takes on geek central with the blu-ray review of his Comic-Con : Episode IV : A Fan's Hope (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) as we follow 5 fans as they tackle San Diego Comic-Con 2010 that is co-produced by Joss Whedon and Stan Lee. Then Elijah Wood takes man best freind to a new level with the blu-ray review of FX's Wilfred Season 1 (courtesy of Fox Home Video) in this US version of a dark new comedy based on Australian tv series. It's anotehr retro tv dvd review with Father Dowling Mysteries : The Complete Second Season (courtesy of Paramount Home Video) as Father Dowling and Sister Steve solve more crimes in the windy sheets of Chicago starring Tom Bosley and Tracy Nelson. I catch up with the latest reboot of New York's favourite web swinger with the movie review of The Amazing Spider-Man.

Lesley and Rob are back after an extended hiatus to bring you what may be the drunkest episode yet. When a walkabout happens out of the blue you learn just what you are made of and Rob and Lesley learn that planning a wedding is stressful. Rob wants to eat all of the cakes, Lesley wants to demand alcohol with the use of flags, and then they both feel kind of assholish when they take a trip to the movies. They loved Cabin in the Woods (Spoilers: 17:18-30:12), felt saved by God Bless America (Spoilers: 31:10 - 36:53) and felt a connection with the subjects of the documentary, Comic Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope. After all of this they finish up the episode with talks of bachelor and bachelorette parties and Rob thinks he has the best idea ever for a bachelor party.
