"2 Guns," "The Canyons," "The Smurfs 2," "The Spectacular Now," "Passion"

Dave's a little under the weather this week, so William Bibbiani (@williambibbiani) from The B-Movies Podcast sits in with Alonso to discuss new films from '70s auteurs Paul Schrader and Brian De Palma as well as the surprisingly good moments from The Smurfs 2 (neither of which makes that movie worth seeing). Oh, and there's the show's first giveaway, too.

B. Ruby Rich, editor of Film Quarterly, professor of film and media studies at UC Santa Cruz and author of the new collection "New Queer Cinema: The Director's Cut" classes up the joint with her presence and her insights. Dave and Alonso argue over whether or not the new movie from the "Drive" guys is art or merely arty.

Dave and Alonso take their show on the road -- well, across town, anyway, to the home of writer pals Robert Abele (a previous guest on the podcast) and Margy Rochlin. The homeowners chime in and kibitz while Dave complains about Viking movies that need to take a page from Tyler Perry and Alonso's glasses fog up because it's July.

Dave and Alonso salute the good and stupid this week, whether it's the smart-stupid of Melissa McCarthy's hilariously obnoxious characters, the exhilarating-stupid of Roland Emmerich's new "Die Hard" ripoff, or the sexy-stupid of a fizzy, naughty romp from Pedro Almodóvar.
