To celebrate the 25th jubilee of what is considered by many to be the greatest year of cinema I’ll be hosting a movie night each weekend for the entire year. This podcast is my invitation to you to join us for the ride. Venture back with us to the before-times when movies could be daring and unpredictable and different to anything anybody had seen before. See you at the movies!

S01E21 - Gods and Monsters and Arlington Road
Craig returns from his sick box and bumps Sam Altman's Monster to the sidelines to join Jason to chat about probably the highlight of the year so far, bringing Gandalf and George of the Jungle together in the remarkable Gods and Monsters, before they start peering over neighbourhood fences to try to catch their neighbours doing something despicable in the twisty Arlington Road. See you at the movies!

S01E20 - eXistenZ and Deep Blue Sea
With Craig away sick with an infected bioport (and the 'rona), Jason and ChatGPT chat about the body horror shock of the prophetic eXistenZ before diving under the waves to escape from genetically engineered sharks in the weird Jurassic Park / Abyss crossover Deep Blue Sea. See you at the movies!

S01E19 - Galaxy Quest and Mystery Men
While Craig attempts to set up a WiFi Mesh using root vegetables, Jason is beamed up to an intergalactic adventure in the wonderful Galaxy Quest, only to return to Earth with a thud, to the tune of "All Star" by Smash Mouth, as he finds himself in the ho-hum superhero parody of Mystery Men. See you at the movies!

S01E18 - The Winslow Boy and Mumford
This week a sickly Craig attempts to steal Jason's limelight but is temporarily expelled from the podcast instead as the pair declare their love for Yes, Minister and enter the filmed stage play of David Mamet's "The Winslow Boy" before seeking psychological help in small-town USA with the understated but very funny "Mumford". See you at the movies!

S01E17 - Pleasantville and Girl, Interrupted
Craig and Jason fight over a mysterious remote control and are transported first back to the melodramatic 1990s, and then to the monochromatic 1950s, to disrupt fictitious lives in the eventually colourful Pleasantville, before time-jumping again to the 1960s where Winona is waiting with a strong female cast to transport us into the world of Girl, Interrupted. See you at the movies!

S01E16 - American History X and Crazy in Alabama
This week Jason and Craig try the American Romper Stomper on for size with the Edwards Norton and Furlong in the controversial moral tale of American History X before entering the bizarre world of Anthony Banderas's farcical melodrama in Crazy in Alabama. See you at the movies!
