S04E08: The Fugitive (1993)

September 02, 2018 17:00 - 40 minutes - 26.3 MBGordy chooses to accept Cross' mission to revisit Ethan Hunt's first adventure courtesy of director Brian De Palma.

S03E28: Small Faces (1996)
August 26, 2018 15:54 - 38 minutes - 25.5 MBWelcome To Tongland! Another audience selection this week, and after much harassment Laurie Mclelland gets his wish. He wanted us to revisit (in Gordy's case) Gillies Mackinnon's movie Small Faces. It was Cross' first introduction to this movie and the lack of subtitles was the first hurdle for him to get over. Or Cross some may say. Or nobody. Anyway, enjoy the episode and please review on iTunes and share with any movie minded buddies. Thank you!
S03E27: The Running Man (1987)
August 19, 2018 21:48 - 38 minutes - 25.7 MBWho loves YOU, and who do you LOVE!? Really don't need to expand any more than that beyond saying He Was a Real Pain In The Neck. And then He Had to Split.

S03E26: Scream (1996)
August 12, 2018 22:14 - 41 minutes - 27.5 MBIt may well be August, but Gordy n' Cross already have Halloween in their sights if this weeks episode is anything to go by! It was lovely to revisit this Horror Classic! It's almost as self aware and knowing as the hosts! Hope you enjoy, and please leave a rating and comment on iTunes, it really makes a difference!
S03E25: Point Break (1991)
August 05, 2018 18:46 - 44 minutes - 29.6 MB"Lose something, Brah?" I know what it is! It's the chasm in your life that is now filled by this here Point Break podcast!

July 29, 2018 15:55 - 31 minutes - 20.9 MBGordy n' Cross have a look at the superficial existence of Patrick Bateman in 1987 NYC. They also draw what parallells they can... there's lots of talk of flexing and business cards. Hope you enjoy the episode! If you can spare a minute a rating and comment on iTunes would be most appreciated. And tell a friend! Cheers.
S03E23: Bird on a Wire (1990)
July 22, 2018 17:00 - 49 minutes - 34.8 MBSo Cross and Gordy revisit classic Goldie n' Mel. And we also had a beer during this one, so we have excessive Gordy swearing and Cross trying to corral the runaway train! It was a delight to revisit some early 90s goodness, and there's screen chemistry all over the movie certainly! Hope you enjoy the episode and please leave us a rating on iTunes if you can. It's really appreciated!
S03E22: The Incredibles (2004)
July 15, 2018 18:00 - 46 minutes - 32.8 MBGordy and Cross go all zeitgeisty and look back at Pixar's The Incredibles. It was released 14 years ago which is mental! But did going back to watch the first one get the chaps excited about the sequel or not? Please share with your friends and leave us a rating on iTunes. It's really appreciated. Enjoy!
S03E21: Ghostbusters (1984)
July 08, 2018 21:20 - 38 minutes - 26 MBWho you gonna call? Cross? Gordy? Probably not, but then you can at least come join us as we talk all things Ghostbusters. It forms part of Cross' Top 10 and it felt appropriate to get in about that! We cover all sorts from which 'Buster we relate to the most, right through to all our fond memories and general all round good times! A 'Halcyon Days' movie for sure! Hope you enjoy the episode.

S03E20: Pulp Fiction (1994)
July 01, 2018 15:22 - 38 minutes - 26.1 MBCome find out what's in Cross n' Gordy's briefcase. It's certainly not the soul of some crazy gangster. We check out and reminisce about Quentin Tartantino's second flick and it forms part of Gordy's always robust Top 5. Hope you enjoy the episode! If you've the time or inclination a review on iTunes and a share with your friends is always appreciated.
S03E19: Jurassic Park (1993) & Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)
June 24, 2018 22:08 - 35 minutes - 24 MBLife... finds a way. And so do Cross and Gordy, this time on the back of an underwhelming Fallen Kingdom viewing we decided to go back to where it all began! Hope you enjoy the episode, please leave us a rating on iTunes and share with your friends.
S03E18: Alien (1979)
June 17, 2018 17:00 - 1 hour - 43.4 MBAudience selection time, and it's thanks to Campbell Read this week that we get to revisit Ridley Scott's Alien. A movie that presumably everybody is well versed in, and if not, that's something that needs to be rectified! Hope you enjoy the podcast and let us know what you think by way of Twitter and Facebook. And leave us a comment and review on iTunes too! Remember, in space no one can hear Cross scream... or something.
S03E17: Bring It On (2000)
June 10, 2018 17:30 - 24 minutes - 17.2 MBNaturally, Cross must follow up Maniac Cop with something suitably contrary. So here we have the 2000 release Bring It On. Comedy and cheerleaders, what could possibly go wrong with such a podcast! Hope you enjoy the episode! Please do leave a comment on Facebook, catch us on Twitter and leave a rating on iTunes. And most of all, let your movie fan friends know about us.
S03E16: Maniac Cop (1988)
June 03, 2018 18:00 - 33 minutes - 23.8 MBBack to our usual output. An old movie that we want to roll before the mic. This week Gordy throws Matt Cordell into the ring with the William Lustig directed Maniac Cop. A good ol' slice of 80s 'nostalgia'. Hope you enjoy the episode, and as always we appreciate your support, your iTunes reviews and your sharing with friends!
S03E15: Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)
May 27, 2018 20:22 - 50 minutes - 36.2 MBAnother day, another Star Wars flick it seems! Opinions have been all over the place both in the '3 Men' studio and further afield. This time it's the turn of Han, Chewie, Lando and a good few new additions including Emilia Clarke's Kira. We speak candidly and all manner of spoilers so tread carefully... so much so it's better to probably go watch it and then come back and hang with us. Let us know what you think and absolutely rate us on iTunes and share with your friends. Punch it!
S03E14: Cobra Kai (2018)
May 20, 2018 17:00 - 58 minutes - 41.9 MBWe're still the Ace Degenerates! Just had to give an episode over to the new YouTube series Cobra Kai. A follow up of sorts that we've all been waiting for! This is arguably the most fun we've had recording a podcast. And all we'll say is that if you have even the slightest modicum of love for The Karate Kid, that you'll LOVE this new series! And you'll most likely LOVE the pod too. Cardigan = Winning! Please do leave feedback, give us an iTunes rating and also tell your friends.
S03E13: Why We Love Movies
May 13, 2018 19:00 - 57 minutes - 40.4 MBA little bit of a different episode this week. Gordy and Cross set aside their differences from last week to get into a (somewhat) rambling discussion on why we just love movies! I'm sure you'll agree with at least a bit of the chat here and where you don't let us know why not! Hope you enjoy it! In the meantime, look forward to the next few weeks where we'll be hitting up some old flicks once more. Please share, rate and tell your mates too!
S03E12: The Thin Red Line v Saving Private Ryan
May 06, 2018 17:00 - 44 minutes - 31.4 MBLets Get Ready To Rumble... It's TIME! A face off for the ages beckon. For longer than Gordy cares to remember, Cross has banged on about Thin Red being better than Private Ryan. So we decided to commit it to the podcast and settle it once and for all! We hope you enjoy it, and we'd love to hear which side of the fence you fall on? Please share with others and please leave a review if you can too. We'll be back next week, if murder wasn't committed during this episode.
S03E11: A Quiet Place (2018)
April 29, 2018 18:30 - 28 minutes - 20.3 MBA Quiet Place is not being too quiet at the Box Office. So the '3 Men' take a look, and not so quietly. Which way will they roll on this massively popular new release and the associated cinema etiquette that appears to be associated with it. Starring real life couple, John Krasinski (who also directs and writes) and Emily Blunt as well as the simply awesome Millicent Simmonds, it's worth checking out and it's definitely worth having a listen to us pair! Hope you enjoy and please rate and ...
S03E10: Annihilation (2018)
April 22, 2018 17:00 - 33 minutes - 23.5 MBGordy and Cross take a dabble in the world we now live with the Netflix release Alex Garland's 'Annihilation'. It wasn't afforded a cinema release beyond the States and came straight to instant streaming. Have a listen and see what we made of the movie and also this Brave New World of movie releases. Hope you enjoy the episode! Please feel free to share us with your friends and leave us a review on iTunes.
S03E09: Big Stan (2007)
April 15, 2018 17:00 - 24 minutes - 17.6 MBGordy and Cross recently went to see Rob Schneider live during the Glasgow Comedy Festival. Upon meeting him, we asked him what movie of his he'd like us to do a podcast on and he chose 'Big Stan'. When duty calls... the Men answer! Prison Rape Comedy at it's finest! It was a movie we'd never heard of, and one he described as really difficult to get made, have a listen and see what you think? If you could share our content and leave a review on iTunes it would be most appreciated.
S03E08: Ready Player One (2018)
April 08, 2018 12:03 - 45 minutes - 32.1 MBGordy and Cross escape the mundane constraints of modern life with a trip to the Oasis courtesy of Steven Spielberg and Ernest Cline. They ponder digital brothels, avatars and licensing issues. Hope you enjoy the episode and as always let us know what you think and share with your friends!
S03E07: Star Wars: The Last Jedi 2.0
April 01, 2018 17:00 - 19 minutes - 13.7 MBSo with the impending home media release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi we thought we should throw out this episode from the archive. Gordy and Cross both hit The Last Jedi one more time. There's been an opinion shift in The Force, guess who? Hope you enjoy the episode! Please share, review and tell your friends as you see fit. May The Force be with you, always.
S03E06: Before Sunrise (1995)
March 25, 2018 17:00 - 58 minutes - 41.1 MBThis is the second week running we've done an Audience Selection. And you know what... why not! Lynn Montgomery-Hawke selected this little Richard Linklater ditty from 1995. Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy) cross paths and spend just 24 hours together in Vienna. She was worried about what Gordy would make of it, however she suggested she was sure Cross would like it. How will they roll with it? Hope you enjoy the episode Lynn, and also to everyone else out there, we had a gre...
S03E05: Duel (1971)
March 19, 2018 21:07 - 46 minutes - 32.4 MBAnother audience selection this week. So it's a thank you Dave Brindle for his nice little selection of some very early Spielberg action with Duel. Cross and Gordy talk it out and as usual end up off piste at many different points. Though a thoroughly enjoyable chat it was. Hope you all enjoy the episode and especially Dave!
S03E04: Blade & Black Panther
March 11, 2018 20:55 - 53 minutes - 37.1 MBGordy and Cross have both hit Black Panther in recent weeks, but also had the fortune to hit Blade on 35mm as part of the Glasgow Film Festival. It felt apt to compare and contrast and discuss the latest Marvel superhero flick! With the added cultural significance that seems to be in tow with it. Hope you enjoy! As usual, share, review, tell your friends and feedback to us your thoughts! x
S03E03: The Rules of Attraction (2002)
March 04, 2018 10:57 - 40 minutes - 28 MBOne of Gordy's favourite movies of all time comes to the 3 Man Table this week. It's one Cross had seen at release, however he'd forgotten enough of it to warrant a revisit. Based on Bret Easton Ellis' novel of the same name we tackle The Rules of Attraction. Written and Directed by Roger Avary and starring a post-Dawson's Creek Van Der Beek. As well as Shannyn Sossamon, Ian Somerhalder and Kip Pardue. Moral choices and life experiences come into the discussions as well as the usual nons...
S03E02: The Belko Experiment (2016)
February 25, 2018 20:41 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MBAt some point in almost all our lives we've experienced frustration with our work colleagues. Maybe The Belko Experiment offers the perfect solution to address that aggro... In any case Gordy and Cross get into it, chatting over this movie from the director of Wolf Creek and the writer of Guardians of the Galaxy.
S03E01: T1 v T2
February 18, 2018 18:48 - 52 minutes - 36.3 MBAs Arnie said he'd be back, so did we. So here we are, kicking of the new season with a retrospective look at the Terminator Franchise (we only recognise two of them as Canon). More specifically Gordy and Cross have differing opinions on which of the two is the superior. It's great to be back, we hope you enjoy!
S02E22: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)
December 21, 2017 22:06 - 50 minutes - 35.3 MBGordy and Cross, as they did with The Force Awakens, hit the midnight showing of Star Wars: The Last Jedi. What would the verdict be? ***Disclaimer*** Gordy has now seen it twice and his verdict has changed significantly.
S02E21: Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
October 06, 2017 23:09 - 1 hour - 46.6 MBGordy and Cross hit up the newly released Blade Runner 2049 as part of our ongoing Hot Take series. Both fans of the original 1982 movie, how would this new Denis Villeneuve effort be received? *SPOILERS EVERYWHERE*
S02E20: Hudson Hawk (1991)
October 01, 2017 23:43 - 28 minutes - 20.3 MB"Be open minded." Cross said. Gordy was open minded. Did that lead to Cross success with his choice of Hudson Hawk, a Bruce Willis movie from the early 90s that had passed Gordy by.
S02E19: What We Do In The Shadows (2014)
September 25, 2017 22:31 - 26 minutes - 19.1 MBAudience selection once again, and it's thanks to Kirsty McGregor who has requested that Gordy and Cross get together to watch What We Do In The Shadows. Directed by Taika Waititi (Wilderpeople and Thor: Ragnarok) it follows the daily lives of a group of vampiric flatmates and the struggles they face. Would this mockumentary go down better with Gordy than Spinal Tap did? And Cross was already a convert... would it be a united thumbs up?
