The Reel Review Episode 29 - Harry Potter and The Top 100 Box Office Movies (50-1)

Mike, Mike and Lon are back with a brand new episode. This week they conclude their discussion on the Top Grossing Movies of All Time with numbers 50 thru 1. How many chick flicks made the list? Can Lon beat his record number of “Rot in Hells” from last week? Where did Star Wars fall? How about Shrek? What movie was #1 and did it deserve it?



Lon also brings his own list, as he goes over the top 20 money makers based on ticket sales and inflation. What movie made the top spot? Which movies surprised the guys? Was ‘The Wizard of Oz’ on this list?



The guys review the new release “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince”. How does the latest installment stack up against the rest of the series? Who did Mike say he thought was “cute”? Is the series really turning into Harry Potter 90201?



In keeping with the Harry Potter theme, the guys take the retro review back to the beginning of the series and review the rest of the movies. Which one do they think is their favorite? Which one is the worst? How do they stack up with the books?



Celebrity Warrior continues as sworn enemies team up to battle one another. Harry Potter’s Dumbledore and Valdimorte take on Lord of the Rings Gandalf and Sarumon. Which Gandalf (white or grey) showed up for this battle? What is cooler, the wand or the staff? Is there a “Killing Curse” in the Lord of the Rings? Lon things so…but did it help? Don’t miss this robe wearing, beard flying action!



They also took you back in time with a Retro Box Office Ranking, this time they go back the week of July 21st, 1989. How did Lon react to another Mel Gibson movie at #1? What Disney classic made the list? How much money did Weekend at Bernie’s make?
