This week we venture into a realm of discovery, vision, and innovation, as we review the (somewhat?) inspirational sci-fi family film "Tomorrowland."  The film is based on the future-themed attraction that has a version at each of Disney's resorts in Anaheim, Orlando, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.

 - Did this movie's message go deep enough or remain "surface level"?

 - As one of our rare PG-rated movies, what did Dave's kids think about it?

 - Which co-host made correlations between this and "Atlas Shrugged"?

 - How effective are the theme & message of this movie about "two wolves" and which one you choose to feed?

 - Which co-host(s) related this movie to attending World's Fairs?

 - Which co-host said the opening felt like it was directed by Steven Spielberg?

 - Who is the "old guy talking to the two little girls"?

 - The Eiffel Tower scene...good, bad, weird, or mix?

 - Why were the holographic pins so impractical & unsafe?

 - Which co-host had an issue with the fate of the movie's antagonist?

 - Just how & why was Casey Newton, a high school student, supposed to be so special?  Was it convincing?

 - Which co-host compared this movie to something bad about Christmas?

 - Which co-host is running for class president?  Okay, this one's easy.  Only one of us is in high school.  The rest of us are old.

 - Which co-host deviated from his normal scoring system this week...and, it's not Andruw?

 - Which co-host has been watching Gordon Ramsay cooking shows lately?

 - Which co-host had a personal story about how this movie helped on a bad day?

 - Dave T.'s Question of the Week:  "Are Transformers & Gobots in the same universe, or are Gobots just the K-Mart version of Transformers?"  Let us know at discerninggeeks@gmail.com or via Facebook or Twitter.

 - Todd's Question of the Week:  "What is the best thing to use for recording podcasts with co-hosts all in different locations, because what we use sometimes drives us bananas?"  Seriously, let us know.

 - And, which "person" from the podcast was apparently on vacation this week?

Listen now to find out answers to these & other burning questions.  Holy crap!  I just looked at the list again, and that's a lot of questions!

Grab your inventor's tools, rocket pack, Audio-Animatronic guide, a positive outlook for the future, and your inter-dimensional rocket ship hidden unrealistically under a major world landmark, as we seek out...Tomorrowland.
