The saga continues with a part II (of The Godfather: Part II) to remember. After a blistering part I, it wasn't clear if we'd even make it back into the recording studio (aka Zencastr) to finish it up, but we set aside our differences and did just that. Goodman finished the movie, and Dre held back the acid in his mouth.

But before we can conclude the first sequel to ever win an Academy Award for Best Picture, we have to talk about what we watched this week.

For Goodman, he caught up with Beverly Hills Cop and Beverly Hills Cop 2; the 80s smash hit, Crocodile Dundee, and Another Round starring Mads Mikkelsen and directed by Academy Award nominated Thomas Vinterberg.

While Dre watched Goodman's pick from last week, the hilarious Eric Andre, Tiffany Haddish, Lil Rey Howery prank-doc, Bad Trip; all of the recent Godzilla movies since Gareth Edwards' 2014 version, including Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong; and the documentary, White Boy, which the film White Boy Rick was based on.

Then we get right back into The Godfather: Part II, and all the reasons why Dre can't take Goodman seriously. Not to mention, a whole bunch of quotes, the acclaimed cast, and a bit of trivia.

Coming up next week we close out the Godfather Saga with a double screening of The Godfather: Part III (the theatrical cut), and the recently recut, The Godfather, Coda: The Death of Michael Corleone.
