Liz and Shawn are back one last time with the final episode. The Childlike Empress finally gets a name, Bastion makes a wish, and some bullies get their comeuppance.
Liz and Shawn take a look at minutes 70 to 80 of The NeverEnding Story in which Atreyu checks out some paintings with a wolf, the world explodes, and we return to a very "flowery" tower.
Liz and Shawn chat about minutes 60 to 70 of the NeverEnding Story, which includes the third (slightly less nipply) gate, a fun ride on Falcor, and the Rock Biter lamenting his hands.
Liz and Shawn cross the halfway point of the film, as they look at minutes 50-60. Atreyu passes through the Nipplyest gates, Bastion throws a book on the ground, and our hosts wish for a sexy remake of Matlock.
Liz and Shawn discuss minutes 40 to 50 of the movie, which include the introduction of Falkor, an old couple that may have also been in The Princess Bride, and our first look at the gates to the Southern Oracle. Also Bastion does some dumb stuff.
On this very special episode Liz and Shawn talk about minutes 30 to 40 of the film, which contain the saddest part of any movie you watched growing up. Two enter the Swamp of Sadness, but only one leaves. Also Shawn plays Morla in the tub.
Shawn and Liz look at minutes 20 to 30 of the film in which a lot of folks in crazy outfits stand inside a clam and a kid in a V neck is sent to save the world.
Shawn and LIz look at the first 10 minutes of the film from Bastion's weird dad drinking eggs and OJ to the old man cunningly hiding a book under a newspaper.
