It's time to go to war and blow things the hell up! The guys talk about Michael Anderson's influential war drama The Dam Busters (#68 on the list). The guys talk about this film's massive influence on the climactic scene in Star Wars, some of the historical inaccuracies on display (surprisingly very few) and more interestingly - why they were intentionally changed, the controversy surrounding the dog's name, switching title characters halfway through a film and much more.

The guys also roll the dice to find out what they'll be watching next week. Join us, won't you?
