This week on Operation Kino we've swapped in David Ehrlich for special guest Mike Ryan, who joins us to review the latest Marky Mark effort Contraband. From there we move on to a topic dear to Mike's heart, Star Wars, specifically the upcoming 3D re-release of The Phantom Menace and whether we should be nicer about that movie. But first there's a lightning round dedicated to outwardly mismatched onscreen couples, and then we move on to tidbits, where Da7e for some reason is watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand, Mike recounts his experience seeing The Devil Inside, Patches is not a big fan of Portlandia, and Katey wants you to understand that Joyful Noise really isn't that bad. We end, as always, with your lightning round answers for dessert.
