After wrapping up our discussion on the best movies of the 2010s we kept the mics on to continue the conversation on the decade that was. We discuss the impact of the biggest tentpole films, touch on some of the decade’s the worst films and chat about our hopes and dreams for cinema in the …
The decade is over! Yes, the calendar is about to roll over to 2020, you are 10 years older than you were and have lived through another era of movies. As with the end of all eras, it’s time to look back, reflect, and pointlessly rank subjective art. It’s in that spirit that we present …
Frank Herbert’s Dune is a novel of intense size and scope, and somehow Hollywood, in their infinite hubris, felt they could condense it all into a single 3 hour movie. The only thing more egotistical than that is to think all that movie’s problems could be fixed in 1 hour. Thankfully we have enormous egos, …
On August 28th, 2003, pizza delivery driver Brian Wells was jumped, forced to wear a bomb and told to rob a bank or the bomb would be detonated. He tragically died after failing to complete the task in time. I know what you’re thinking, that sounds hilarious! Someone should make a comedy out of it. …

Well, this is one movie we are not giggy with. Nineties movies typically have some bad taste jokes we’ve long since learned are not appropriate, but like an oddly placed giant mechanical spider, this movie is rife with them. Liam, Gregg and Scott power through another rewrite, ditching problematic jokes and giving the singular woman …
You may remember, back in March, we started a friendly wager amongst our fellow podcasters to see who could best predict the quality of 2019’s summer blockbusters. “March?!” I can hear you say, “I barely remember what episode of Voyager I watched last night.” Fair enough, let’s remind you of the rules, the prize and …
Our listeners can be forgiven for thinking at this point that we hate the giant monster genre. After all, we’ve already taken Pacific Rim and Godzilla to the rewriters room, and now we’re doing the same for Jordan Vogt-Roberts’ Kong: Skull Island. The truth is we’ve genuinely liked all these movies (well, maybe not Gregg, …
