In this adventurous (and slightly uncanny) episode of Sorry, We Tried, it is PART THREE of our SPIELBERG-ATHON, in which we've been revisiting movies from one of the most iconic filmmakers of all time, Steven Spielberg, in the lead up to his new movie Disclosure Day! This time, we're taking a look at one of his most experimental and underappreciated movies, 2011's The Adventures of Tintin! Does the weird motion capture/Polar Express-style animation ruin the movie? Is it a worthy successor to Indiana Jones? All that and more in this week's episode!
Also in this episode, Harrison cracks the case on a Mountain Dew-related conspiracy. Robby identifies his favorite earbud. Spencer becomes a human compass. And the guys discuss their hottest, most controversial topic yet — the correct way to hold your arms while you sleep.
0:00-19:07 - Mountain Dew conspiracies, sleeping positions, and random shenanigans
19:08-1:08:28 - Actual review part of the episode (if you feel like skipping everything else, I guess)
