This week\'s podcast is dedicated to the late great actor Christopher Plummer, who sadly passed away last Friday at the ripe old age of 91.  Given that he voiced a major character in one of this week\'s films ("Up"), it\'s only fitting to give him this tribute.  His career was long, eventful, and fruitful.  His accomplishments will always be appreciated, and his legacy never forgotten.  Rest in peace, Mr. Plummer, and may you continue to rip up Nazi flags in the great beyond.  RIP Christopher Plummer 12/13/1929 - 2/5/2021  ___________________________________________________________________________

Well folks, here we are!  The Elite Eight, the beginning of the end, the moment where the truly best of the best reveal themselves!  This week, Wesley and I are joined by our usual posse along with one or two special guests.  We talk about films we\'ve already discussed before and try to make arguments for which ones should move on to the Final Four.  Something worth noting is that, of the 8 films remaining, 7 of them came out before 2010.  I guess recency bias won\'t be playing a part in this tournament.  Not much else to say except enjoy the show!  One last thing: we\'ll be taking a break from the tournament next week as we enter the Final Four, continuing the tradition started by me with Mouse Madness.  Instead, we\'ll be doing a special episode next week.  What kind of special episode?  Watch this video to find out, or stay tuned for next week!
