    <description><![CDATA[Boxes, guns, and angry people.  A short clip it is not, but that gives you all the more clues to what this movie gone Mandarin could be. If you guess correct, you get a free month of premium access to ChinesePod.  So get your guess in to either Amber of Clay, and best of luck to you.  ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Man, it's really weird.  I don't know what this is, but I feel that I recognize it just from the background noise and music.

Dave you really cracked me up when you let out the rage!  "You call me intellectually angry and I will THROW you through that window."

Definitely an Oscar worthy performance.  You had me on the edge of my seat.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The background music had me confused as well because I didn't remember it. Usually the music is a huge clue for me but this time it almost led me astray until I listened carefully to the dialogue. 

And as always, Dave's taste is impeccable. :-) I would love to discuss the meaning of this scene more in detail but until the answer has been revealed it's probably better not to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Ernest Hemingway once wrote "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for." I agree with the second part.
Here is D.F., M.F. and B.P. answering Dave's Challenge : (no need to look very deep)

        <description><![CDATA[Surprised a couple of you are having trouble... I thought this one was a dead giveaway, but that might just come from having seen it a couple of times.

@bb.jt: they tacked the Hemingway quote on to make a it "feel good" ending? That's hilarious, and about as effective as sticking a song-and-dance number at the end of Silence of the Lambs. The audience I saw it with walked out in stunned silence.

@lunetta - looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
