In a first for the Games on Film podcast, Harry and Rory cover a Mystery Movie! Why would a podcast about video game movies cover a movie that, on the surface, does not appear to have anything to do with video games at all? Well, that would be telling! Join us first for a non-spoiler filled discussion about the nature of spoilers in cinema, teasers and trailers, and the difference between twists and concepts. Then, the curious amongst you - or those who have sussed our clues - can listen on as everything is revealed! But does a video game twist necessarily a good movie make?



This podcast teases the identity of a Mystery Movie from 8:45, with the title revealed and SPOILERS from 19:00.

Harry and Rory flip out as they travel back to 1970s New York for the "true story" of Roger Sharpe (Challengers and West Side Story's Mike Faist), a journalist and pinball enthusiast, who discovers that his favourite game is illegal in the city. As he documents his passion in print and finds new love, the industry aims to bring him on board to challenge the law - and it all comes down to one shot! We discuss big tashes, the good and bad of biopics, and our top tables.

It's the 70th anniversary of Godzilla, and to mark the release of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire and celebrate Godzilla Minus One's Oscar victory, Harry and Rory are joined by their brother, kaiju fan and creator of DeadEndia, Hamish Steele! Together, they look back at Godzilla games across the decades, including 16-bit city-stomper Super Godzilla, fight-fest Destroy All Monsters Melee, and cross-over oddity City Shrouded in Shadow. Plus, a look at key King Kong titles, such as the official game of the Peter Jackson movie.

It's the return of the Games on Film podcast, and Harry and Rory kick things off with Tekken 2: Kazuya's Revenge! From the director of Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever, this sequel?/prequel?/reboot? follows a man named K, who wakes up with amnesia and finds himself forced to work for a gang of assassins. But who is he? And what does he want? Clue: it's in the title! With the help of Brian Cox (kind of), we try to work out if this really is a part two, or just a load of number two?



This podcast contains SPOILERS for Tekken 2: Kazuya's Revenge (2014), from 32:10.
