Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.

George hasn't seen Halloween. He doesn't know the horrors that await. But Travis and Dan insist he put on the coveralls and Captain Kirk mask to really get into Michael Myers' skin and experience John Carpenter's masterpiece.
