Hey kids! We're taking a little break this week as we head into the conclusion of Season One Of Worlds Famous.. Don't worry though.. We have something fun for you. I blast from the past episode.. Let's see what we had to say about this one at the time...
Hey kids. We have a real humdinger of a show this week! We're doing two of the things you guys seem to like me to talk about the most in the same feature! We're gonna talk food, AND do a Top 5! Plus, it's Halloween Related.. The Top 5 Halloween Candies Of All The Times! It's gonna be great.
Before we get there though we have to pass through some somber space and confront the passing of Robert Forrester. I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Forrester once and I really wanted to share that story with you guys. He was a nice dude.
For At The Movies we're gonna take a peek at a horror comedy called Zombieland: Double Tap. It's a sequel to a movie that came out ten years ago.. I don't know. We'll talk about it in a spoiler free way.
Then it's on to the Main Event.. The Top 5 Trick Or Treat Candies Of All The Times. This is a pretty fun one. Basically the idea is, when I was sorting out my post Trick Or Treat winnings what were the candies that I gave the highest priority to...? Which ones did I either eat first or save for last? It's a ton of fun.
For the final segment of the show we talk the recent blackout, Megos, Halloween decorations and a bunch of other cool topics.
Thanks for tuning in. Have a happy/spooky Halloween and make sure to tell a friend...

Have you ever been looking forward to your favorite director's next film and then when you see it, it completely disappoints you? Well, so have we. Join Carlos today at GeekFest Rants as he looks at his favorite directors and pinpoints the time when they have disappointed him.

Plus, we'll also throw a few superstar actors to see if they suffered a similar fate.
