It\\u2019s February, and the whole country\\u2019s fresh off the most exciting football game in history (or so we\\u2019re told), so the Screeners have decided to get together and talk about\\u2014what else?\\u2014commercials. The \\u201cbig game\\u201d, or whatever the NFL\\u2019s suing people into calling it this year, is supposed to be a lodestone for quality adverts*, but were the famously expensive spots a slam dunk this year? Fox allegedly cried foul on at least one of them, refusing to air it, but maybe someone else hit a home run. Join the hosts as they talk about what the big brands served up this year.

Hockey.

OK, now that we\\u2019re done with our segment on commercialism, let\\u2019s talk about fast food. Michael Keaton hasn\\u2019t made much of a splash with his role as Ray Kroc in The Founder, so why would the Screeners review it, you might ask. Well, we\\u2019ll tell you. No one wanted to see that movie about the kid from Mars. That\\u2019s why. Some of them thought The Founder might actually be a good movie, too, but it was mostly the Mars thing. Sometimes the simplest answer is the best answer.

To round things out, why not do a top 3? The main event\\u2019s usually the inspiration for these, so let\\u2019s not ruin a good thing. Top 3 biopics it is.There\\u2019s a pretty deep field here to choose from, which is a pleasant departure from norm. What was the last one again? \\u201cName your favorite Kelsey Grammer characters\\u201d?

Alright...less snark, more Facebook engagement. Don\\u2019t make Chris beg for likes. We\\u2019ve seen him beg. It\\u2019s very uncomfortable.

* We\\u2019re trying on some British. It suits us, innit?
