Control

Apparently, the trend of biopics continues this week with the 2007 film Control, which focuses on the (short) life of Joy Division frontman Ian Curtis. The guys talk about the haunting origins of the band's name, Toby Kebbell's standout performance as the well-rounded (and often hilarious) band manager, the lack of blame for either of Curtis' romantic partners and much more. Plus: Jason pitches Copperhead 2 with Brendan reprising his role.

Next week: a huuuuuuuge Oscar winner for Best Picture!
