Merry Christmas, It's time for our very special Christmas episode of the Spiraken Movie Review . And for you our listeners, Xan, Deke and Kal go all out and review one of the greatest Christmas Movies of All Time, Die Hard directed by John McTiernan and starring Bruce Willis, Reginald Veljohnson and Alan Rickman. For the first part of this episode Deke, Xan and Kal do their very first Spiraken Email Review and discuss the 3 emails sent to us. Then, after discussing some of the future releases in Film, They proceed to get down and dirty with John McClane in this week's review. They talk about awesome corporate bosses, ponder about where one can hire a minion and comment on the incompetence of the LAPD in this movie. However due to an error in the recording software, Xan and Co. had to perform a Christmas miracle and reconstruct this entire podcast. So the audio quality of this episode is a little shaky and the ending is a little weak but otherwise we hope you enjoy it. Remember we have two contests going on right now. The Top 10 Movie Vehicles of All Time Contest and the big Tronouski quote Contest. For more info please check the forum under contests for rules and prizes. Remember to vote for what theme will be our first theme month in 2011 at Spiraken.darkbb.com Please send us any comments concerns and ideas on how to make this podcast better. Let us know so we can do something about it.
