Also, Tim spotlights a medical breakthrough. ===== Synopsis ===== Tim and Gregg appear somewhat sweaty today; after the usual introductions, Tim implores Gregg to fix the air conditioning at the [[vfc]]. Tim takes a moment to thank the viewers for their support for the season finale of [[decker4|Decker season 4]], and expresses his enjoyment working with [[dean]]. He also says he was glad to have refined Gregg's "disrespectful" [[decker3|Decker vs. Dracula]] idea into something better; Gregg responds that Tim merely lifted his idea, but he is okay with it. This leads to a brief disagreement over their respective interpretations of the show's characterizations, but they eventually agree to move on to the movies. Woody Allen is back with a new film called //Cafe Society//- his 100th movie, as a matter of fact. Tim says it is his best movie to date, awards highest marks, and predicts it will win an Oscar. He asks Gregg if he knows how many Oscars Woody Allen has received; Gregg says they stopped counting, and now measure them by weight. After the two shower the "Woodster" with plaudits, Gregg also awards highest marks. Next on the docket is //Jason Bourne//. Tim notes how inactive the spy film genre was until //[[decker]]// came along (though Gregg reminds him that [[bond]] kept chugging along). As for //Jason Bourne//, Tim opines that it lacked sufficient action and was confusing to follow, but was still fun to watch. It gets five bags from him, but no sodas. Gregg was confused too, but for different reasons- the titles of the previous films in the franchise (//Bourne Identity//, //Legacy//, //Ultimatum//) were in alphabetical order, and this one throws that off, making the archivist's job more difficult. He recommends the film be re-released under a new title, such as //Bourne Victory//, but awards five bags anyway. Following the movies, Tim introduces today's special guest, [[drsan]]. Tim reveals how Dr. San has put Tim on a "nutritional vape system" to help enhance his creativity while writing music for [[dekkar]]'s upcoming album, and now replaces his meals as well. Dr. San explains that eating and digestion saps energy from the body, while the vape directly nourishes your system. The ingredients include a Chinese mushroom called //dong chong xia cao//, as well as //ma huang//, which opens up the lungs for stronger singing. Gregg, skeptical of the whole thing, asks if it is FDA approved; Dr. San doesn't answer directly. After a couple more vape hits, the show ends; the [[popcornclassics]] originally scheduled for today will have to wait. ===== Ratings ===== **//Cafe Society// (2016, 96 mins.)**\\ **[[tim|Tim]]**: 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 + 🥤, [[oscarpick|OSCAR PICK]]\\ **[[gregg|Gregg]]**: 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 + 5 wheelbarrows to carry Woody Allen's Oscar gold **//Jason Bourne// (2016, 123 mins.)**\\ **[[tim|Tim]]**: 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿\\ **[[gregg|Gregg]]**: 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 + 1 advice capsule
