BDFR - Moonrise Kingdom & Hilda

What are some good movies not set on planet Earth? That was the starting point for this weeks Top 5 as we discuss those films that didn't take place on the third planet from the sun. Predictably science fiction and fantasy movies reign supreme here as we gather some of the best movies in the cosmos, and of course there's a few jokes, although just like Halley's comet , some went right over our heads.

This weeks movie review is the 2012 Wes Anderson coming-of-age drama Moonrise Kingdom. Anderson's distinctive visual style and flair for eccentricity is on full display here as he assembles an unbelievable ensemble cast featuring the likes of Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton and Harvey Keitel however it's newcomers Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward who steal the show in this film exploring some taboo subjects through Anderson's typically quirky lens.

We finish up with a review of Netflix's Hilda. Based on the graphic novel by Luke Pearson, the eponymous heroine is a blue-haired girl who, along with her faithful deerfox Twig, meets the unusual residents of Trolberg. This weeks episode features a troll made our of rock enraged by a bell on his nose, the wood man and a race of tiny invisible bureaucratic elves. Almost all of us managed to watch this and one of the dads even proclaims this as the best children's program he's watched for the podcast! Stay tuned to find out who.

Until next time, we remain...
