We're kicking off Season Four with our ol' friend GENE MILLER and watching NATIONAL LAMPOON'S CHRISTMAS VACATION!

XLI: Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015)

Too many roman numerals? That's because it's a BUZZED OFF FILM spoiler-free mini-episode for STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS and the unofficial Season 4 premiere! Chris and Brad had late night, plush seats for the newest Star War and are here to boil it all down to the ticket price! And again, there are no spoilers. (Even though you probably saw it last night too.)

150: Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983)

It's the season finale of High On Film and we've got the return of JEFF MAY for RETURN OF THE JEDI (the original theatrical version)! We find out what those things are in Jabba's Palace, whether to stress a long or short 'A' in both 'Han' and 'Millennium Falcon', and play one last, destined round of Trash/Star/Destroy for Season Three.

Check out Jeff's stand-up around Los Angeles, or anywhere he tours, by following him on twitter @heytherejeffro, or on facebook, but not on instagram.

143: The Five Obstructions (2003)

This week, friend and fellow podcaster ERIN TEACHMAN returns to the show to test our boundaries with Lars Von Trier's documentary THE FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS! The film choice creates its own obstructions to the show, we get bilingual during 'First Impressions', and Chris can't trust someone who doesn't like cartoons on today's show!

140: After Earth (2013)

We conclude our All Night M Night Shyamalan Marathon with DAVE BEIRNE, JOSH HANSEN, and the bomb AFTER EARTH! Is it a movie or three levels of a bad video game? We compare it to 'Rear Window' and 'Sonic the Hedgehog' to find out, find ourselves in the presence of Josh South America, and foreign films confuse Brad on this week's show!

You should know by now to follow Dave and Josh on twitter @PrettySoundGuy and @IRarelyTweetBut respectively and check out Dave's contributions to 'Junk on Netflix' and Brad's baseball column 'I Love You, Pittsburgh Pirates'

Movies are Real. Podcasting is a choice.

Those Who Do The Speaking

Buzzed Off Film XXXIX: The Visit (2015)

It's a mini-episode collusion with our All Night M Night Shyamalan Marathon! JOSH HANSEN sticks around to watch the new film THE VISIT and gives us one hell of a grindhouse trailer. It's a spoiler-free review so fear no twist where we tell you what's really going on.
