So it goes without saying that many of those titles with the atrocious Rotten Tomatoes ratings are not up for discussion here. What’s also worth noting is the presence of films that were much-anticipated and then were bitterly disappointing. Is there anything worse than going into a new ...

December 06, 2017 23:53 - 37 minutes - 34.7 MBIt’s been a few weeks since we talked (with microphones present), so an absolute load of films to review. Lots of them we saw together, and lots of them we really liked, so listen in. And yes Páraic did give The Florida Project 2 stars. #Shocker. Anyway the excitement got too much for us and all the excitement led to the audio dropping out for a bit at the five minute mark, so apologies for the 90 seconds where it sounds like we’re recording in a dust-bin. Just skip past it if it bothers yo...

October 23, 2017 22:52 - 26 minutes - 24.1 MBIt’s taken us a fortnight but we’ve finally gotten our head around Blade Runner 2049, and its place in modern film history. How does it compare to the 1982 that inspired it? Listen in to find out. Oh and we do get side-tracked midway through chatting about a certain Mr. Harvey Weinstein.

You could argue they’re more articulate and intelligent contributors than our usual two cronies….
