Episode 640: My Favorite Summer... The Actresses

We are hitting the dog days of summer and headed to the homestretch of My Favorite Summer - and after talking about our favorite Actors a few weeks back, it's time to turn our attention to the much fairer side... our favorite Actresses!

Episode 409: The Actress Draft

Feliz Navidad to all, as the Deucecast heads towards Christmas Day... but before the crew does the annual gift giving (which will be next week), there is another matter at hand. Selecting those female counterparts to go along with the actors selected for the guy's fictional movie studios in Ep 405.

And once again, the Pride of Albany Georgia, Spawn of Ryfun, Young G joins the show to give his take.

First up, birthday movies, which always helps you feel a little old when you find out that Kingsman is five years old, Oceans Twelve is 15 years old, Legends of the Fall is 25 years old and The Jerk is going on 40...

Then, a little game to figure out who goes first, and then the guys dive into the Actress Draft, each picking five to sign to an exclusive deal for their own studios.  Who gets picks? How fast will d$ pick Amy Adams? Who takes ScarJo? Which Brie will #TwitterlessDrEarl go for, Larson or Alison? Will Mikey actually consider Melissa McCarthy? And what surprising selection does Young G make his #1 draft pick?


As a recap, here is who was chosen in the Actor Draft:

Garrison – Leonardo DiCaprio… Tom Cruise… Jake Gyllenhaal… John David Washington… Paul Rudd… Michael Keaton… Henry Cavill…

d$ – The Rock… Idris Elba… Christian Bale…  Tom Hardy… Winston Duke… John Cho… Zac Efron
