Transcribe →Podcast 235: Deadpool And Wolverine
Jul 31, 202400:41:30Tap to summarizeOnly one man…ok two men could get us to record a podcast so soon after the last one, DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE! We weren’t going to miss the chance to talk X-Men, the return of Hugh Jackman, how was Wolverine’s hair and suit, whether Deadpool talked too much and of course share our thoughts on all references and cameos throughout the movie. Join us as we amuse ourselves at Ryan Reynold’s, Hugh Jackman’s and Marvel’s expense and share all the juicy details we enjoyed in the movie. If somehow you STILL haven’t seen Deadpool and Wolverine, we hold off on discussing spoilers until 16:48 , but short version; if you liked the first 2 you’ll probably like this.

Transcribe →Podcast 234: Godzilla Minus One & Under Paris
Jul 25, 202400:55:16Tap to summarizeY’now we did have a super timely and up to the minute movie review podcast recorded and ready to go but then… as you know life sometimes gets in the way. If you’re listening to our podcasts you know our schedule can be a bit… erratic anyway so I’m sure you are used to it by now. This week we have a watery double bill as director Xavier Gens takes us Under Paris and for our main event it’s the return (again) of Godzilla in Takashi Yamazaki’s Godzilla Minus One. Both movies really caught us by surprise so we hope you’ll enjoy hearing is discuss them. Both Godzilla Minus One & Under Paris are still on Netflix so, like us, you have no excuse to not watch them!

Transcribe →Podcast 233: The Crow (1994)
Apr 17, 202400:42:50Tap to summarizeGiving up any pretense of keeping up with current releases, Gavin and Iain delve into 1994’s The Crow on our latest podcast. Starring the late Brandon Lee and directed by Alex Proyas this is such a formative movie for us it’s amazing we’ve not covered it before. Having not seen it in a few years, can it possibly stand up to today’s modern movie standards? Is there room for the original to be improved upon by the upcoming remake starring Bill Skarsgård (spoilers: that’s a big fat no!). Join us as we discuss our feelings on the film, what makes it stand out to us today, our love of the mazing cast and a taste of what we might be doing in future. Let us know what you think of the show or our new direction or anything else you want to share with us at the social media accounts below!

Transcribe →Podcast 231: Johnny Mnemonic in Black and White
May 29, 202300:52:36Tap to summarizeMcYapAndFries tries something a little different this week as we revisit 1995’s Johnny Mnemonic in Black and White! After only hearing about this newish version of the cyberpunk “classic” recently, Iain and Gavin had to get their hands on a copy to check it out. And it was cheap!. Join us on this week’s podcast as we revisit the nightmare cyberpunk future of…. 2021!?? Directed by Robert Longo, written by cyberpunk legend William Gibson and starring McYapandFries favourite Keanu Reeves as Johnny himself, we really didn’t know what to expect with this one but were pleasantly surprised! Also on the show Gavin and Iain chat about Willow leaving Disney+, the latest shenanigans in Hollywood and we experience a little confusion over what actually happened at the end of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood before diving deep into the Keanu Reeves “Classic”.
