This week starts with the guys yakking about the READY PLAYER ONE trailer, since Dave and Evan were forced to watch it twice in one sitting. The rest is about two new pictures coming to theaters. First, Kris reviews FIFTY SHADES FREED (3:41), the final chapter in the franchise, which he says redefines the term \\u201ccaptive audience.\\u201d Kris laughs at its batty kidnapping plot and explains how it connects to FIFTY SHADES DARKER, a movie that recently made him subscribe to HBO, just so he didn\\u2019t have to buy it on Amazon. Next, Evan and Dave take on Clint Eastwood\\u2019s THE 15:17 TO PARIS (29:22), a film so bad it actually makes Evan jealous of Kris. They rail against Eastwood\\u2019s decision to use real people instead of actors, its terrible dialogue, and its boring focus on minutiae.
