YEAH BABY YEAH! We’re traveling back to the “Swinging Sixties” to talk about ‘Last Night in Soho.’ We also discuss the career of Edgar Wright and compare this film to the others in his oeuvre. We answer a question on our ‘Hotline’ regarding movies that made us uncomfortable while watching. We’ve got another edition of the ‘Christmas Movie Minute.’ And, as always, we’ve got ‘Staff Picks.’

In news, Adam McKay discusses his break with Will Ferrell, there’s going to be a new ‘Magic Mike,’ and a lot of people are talking about ‘House of Gucci.’
