TJ and Joe discuss another WWII movie this week: ‘Unbroken’. True to form, what Joe likes more about this film than ‘The Imitation Game, TJ likes more about ‘The Imitation Game’, and vice versa. But it takes all sort of people to make the world go ‘round. The thing is, TJ and Joe are still friends… Also in discussion this week, the new ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ trailer, the trailer for Rob Thomas upcoming ‘iZombie’ TV series, the ‘House of Cards, Season 3’ trailer, rumors that Roberto Orci wanted to resurrect Vulcan, and a few thoughts on the Golden Globe Awards.

Trailer 2 here is pretty much all action and no menace. It’s fun and there are shots we haven’t seen yet, but this trailer is here to appeal to the people who come to the theater for the big bangs and loud booms.
There are some people who make stuff and you just don’t ask questions.
Get ready for the most cinematic event on TV, that’s not even “on TV” (if you think TV is the broadcast stuff).
This is terrible if true. And again, completely rumor, but if true, I am so glad he got booted from the writer and director chair.
Last night was the 2015 Golden Globe Awards for films and TV shows from the year 2014. Here’s what we’ve got:
After a near-fatal plane crash in WWII, Olympian Louis Zamperini spends a harrowing 47 days in a raft with two fellow crewmen before he's caught by the Japanese navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp.
Critics Consensus: Unbroken is undoubtedly well-intentioned, but it hits a few too many of the expected prestige-pic beats to register as strongly as it should.

Stefan Pape from HeyUGuys interviews Takamasa Ishihara (Miyavi) for his movie Unbroken which is directed by Angelina Jolie. The movie is based on the incredible true story of Louis Zamperini.
He shook hands with Hitler, spent more than a month lost at sea, and ended up in a Japanese torture camp. Louis Zamperini has seen many days he’d rather not recall but he’ll never forget the day he met Jesus Christ.
