Episode #23 - Crimson Peak

Fri, 13 Oct 2017 17:19:00 GMT

Our month of spooky romance continues with our second romance-horror film, Crimson Peak. We discuss gothicness, ghosts, how Paddy is a Cumberbatch Denier, and Robert Redford's new outing in the film Our Souls at Night (be sure to read that title back to yourself with a British accent). Sadly some kind of spooky ghost got into Rob's mic halfway through the recording, so there's a crackly, atmospheric noise on some of the recording. An exorcism will be performed before next week's show.

It's the first episode of our month on romantic horror, and the first film for this is the 1986 David Cronenburg classic, The Fly.

Do you hear the podcast sing? It's our first discussion of a proper musical this week, as we watched the film adaptation of Les Misérables. We focus mostly on Russell Crowe's powerful bellowing, but also have time to discuss rapper BoB's efforts to discover if the Earth is flat (duh, obviously it is), and plan for our own stage show Vinnie Jones: The Musical (coming to the West End in 2019).

Episode #17 - Elizabethtown

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 04:56:00 GMT

In this week's episode we discuss the film that inspired the creation of the controversial term 'Manic Pixie Dream Girl,' Cameron Crowe's Elizabethtown. Can Rob put aside his nostalgia for the first time he saw it? Can Paddy get past his dislike of Orlando Bloom's wooden and insincere face? Is the whole film just a ruse to fulfil Crowe's desire for a scene in which a band plays Freebird while a cardboard bird is on fire? All will be revealed within! We also discuss the new Great British Bake Off, and Donald Trump's skin.
