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 is on a red-eye trip to Australia, for a cult classic Hitchcockian riff. Kangaroos? We got em. Guitar murders? Heck yes. Jamie Lee Christmas comes to a close with Road Games. A rated-PG (80s PG, so PG-13?) romp through the outback with a tour-de-force performance from Stacy Keach and a great supporting Jamie Lee Curtis.
Will George wax eloquently about tuning guitars and sideboob? Will a lack of nostalgia prevent Travis from enjoying a new old movie? Can Dan convince the guys that movies can stand on their own beyond our own expectations? Only one way to find out!
