Summer Movie Preview, Spring Easter Plans

Summer Movie Preview, Spring Easter Plans

The StoryMen look ahead at the summer of 2014. We each pick three films we're excited for, a guilty pleasure and one we're punishing each other by requiring them to see. We also talk about Easter - why it's on such a crazy schedule, our Easter traditions and what this weekend looks like for us this year. In this Episode: 00:00 - FROZEN and the Top Box Office of All Time 05:00 - What films are you most anticipating this summer? 23:00 - What film will you see this summer that you're pre-ashamed of? 28:00 - What film must the other StoryMen see as punishment? 37:00 - Easter: Why does it move around so much?

What did you think of Ready Player One?

By JR. Forasteros

JR. lives in Dallas, TX with his wife Amanda. In addition to exploring the wonders that are the Lone Star state, JR. is the teaching pastor at Catalyst Community Church, a writer and blogger. His book, Empathy for the Devil, is available from InterVarsity Press. He's haunted by the Batman, who is in turn haunted by the myth of redemptive violence.
