Joined once again by Tim from the Pint Glass Manifesto podcast, host Mark Johnson sets out the teams most recent podcasting mission - to watch as many video game inspired movies and to chart a course through history of the good, the plenty of bad, and the downright awful.

From Super Mario Bros through to Warcraft, from the high of the original Mortal Kombat through to the twin lows of Alone in the Dark and House of the Dead. Why do some movies work? Why does it so often go bad? And are we potentially moving into a golden era now that the people who played these games are now making movies themself.
