The buffs critique two new flicks and dish on the hotly-awaited sequel DECKER: Port of Call: Hawaii, with guest star Joe Estevez.

===== Synopsis =====
Tim sports the iconic black turtleneck and jacket worn by his [[decker]] character, Jack Decker. He declares this day "Decker Day," and announces that next week will be the premiere of the new Decker series, [[decker2]]. His guests today are his Decker co-stars Gregg Turkington and [[joe]], and all seem to be in an enthusiastic, upbeat mood. Especially Tim, who is glad that [[ayaka|Ayaka]] and baby [[tch]] are back in his life.

After some lighthearted chit-chat, the trio get into their movie reviews. First up is //Chappie//, a robot movie. Tim describes it as "a different kind of movie," but in a good way. He also praises the acting, special effects, filmmakers, and Sigourney Weaver. He asks Joe what he thought, but Joe admits he only was able to see the previews. Gregg opines that the film is a sci-fi flick in the same vein as //Alien// (1979, 116 minutes), but "on the flip side" of //Alien//, and he appreciated this "unofficial sequel" as it has been a while since the last //Alien// movie.

Next up is //The Second Best Marigold Hotel// directed by legendary football coach John Madden, and starring Ju[l]ie Dench. Tim appreciates the elderly twist on the chick flick theme, as well as the honorifically titled cast members and the "throw-everybody-in-there" improvisatory nature of the movie. Gregg (Joe didn't see this one either) appreciates the creativity in the movie's title, as it cleverly indicates the film is a sequel ("Second Best"). He says this may "usher in a new era of creativity," and gives the film highest marks.

The crew throws in an extra review today, for //The Coup//, featuring none other than James Bond himself, Pierce Brosnan. Tim and Gregg award it highest marks, but Joe again has not seen this one. Tim closes the episode urging the audience to catch the season premiere of the second season of //Decker//.
