Beth and Rick chop it up about our favorite summer films, more specifically about our favorite blockbuster faire in these dog days when the chill of the theater (or our living rooms) is a welcome reprieve from the midday sizzle.

Is a great blockbuster merely defined by commercial success and dollars and cents? There may be more to it than the gross. One thing we agree on is that summer is a great time to enjoy action on the big screen as well as surprise and sleeper hits. We try to cover all the flavors and levels in that cinematic blockbuster snow cone, to get to the bottom and find the gum ball.

Have a listen, stay cool out there. Comments are open.
