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 wasn't sure what he was going into with Weird Science... And we aren't sure he knew what he was coming out of when it was over. Travis and Dan have plenty of work ahead to unpack this 80's classic!
Can Dan find a way to organically link the Silent Night, Deadly Night franchise and Dario Argento to the works of John Hughes? Will the Crypt Keeper kindly return Travis to his original state? Did George at least recognize Robert Downey Junior in this one?
