    Ghostbusters II

    Ghostbusters II

    This week we watch Ghostbusters II, except Chris who got the wrong film. But first, we have a little bonus spoilercast about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, which unlocks a classic Chris Rant­. And then we watch the main feature, discussing the impact of The Real Ghostbusters, what you want from a sequel, the bad vibes that come from good vibes, and I think our third passionate defence of Peter Venkman.
    Next week, it's Alex's birthday pick, Cyborg!

    Star Trek

    Star Trek

    This week, we take our annual trip to the world of Star Trek. Having watched all the original ten films, it's time to follow a very old Spock through a black hole and join the Kelvin timeline. Join us as we discuss rebooting franchises, a terrible bad guy, fate vs. logic. and the perils of stunt-casting unfunny comedians.
    Next week, we celebrate (?) Ghostbusters being back in cinemas by watching Ghostbusters II!

    Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

    Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

    This week, we continue the modern Planet of the Apes franchise seven years (!) after watching the first instalment. Join us as we marvel at the CG, complain about everything else, get into a very, very long discussion about post-apocalyptic survival (yet again) and we learn that Chris is prepared to play any game, no matter the game. Game on.
    Note for Sam's brain: You are confusing Jason Clarke with Jai Courtney because they are both charisma vacuums and were both in Terminator: Genisys!
    Next week, it's another rebooted franchise, JJ Abrams' ode to the lens flare, it's Star Trek!
