  Richard Roeper - Host : ...Nobody who is involved with it. I think you could go into...

  A.O. Scott - Guest Host : No, I think even...

  Richard Roeper - Host : ...Any dinner theater...

  A.O. Scott - Guest Host : Ouch, now that's-

  [chuckles] 

  Richard Roeper - Host : I mean, the title alone should keep people away.
