Some of you remember these two guys. I find their thoughts in this clip refreshing; some real wisdom here. It feels like it's from another era, and it is. I also can't help but think of how the role of movie critic has been under fire for years now and many have left the business. I so wish there was a movie review show today like theirs was then, and updated for our times.
