    Supergirl review

    The DCU has been re-formatted like a hard drive sporting Windows 95, and two films deep, the question is now being asked: Is it working?   The boys are back with their take on that question, as they consider the merits of a punk-metal version of Supergirl versus her 80s predecessor and consider whether James Gunn and Peter Safran have their finger on the pulse of fans the world over. Is it time to panic that the DCU is going the way of the DCEU before it, or should everyone just take a chill-pill and enjoy Supergirl for what it is?   Find out as The Countdown continues ...     Time Stamps: Supergirl NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 14:32 Supergirl SPOILER-FILLED Discussion: 14:32 - 23:20 Final Scores and Thoughts Including Potential Spoilers: 23:20 - 26:23   If you want more Countdowns and reviews - all the way back to Episode 40! - hit up our Podbean site.   There's more of Wayne over at his YouTube channel, Waxing & Wayning.   Join The Countdown Podcast Listener Community on Facebook so you can interact more directly with other listeners of the show (as well as the lads themselves!).

    He-Man and the Masters of the Universe review

    Wayne and Paul channel their childhoods playing with figurines (not a euphemism) and watching cartoons before school as they this week take on the brand new version of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe!   Among the many important questions answered (or at least asked): Does the film get the tone right for a modern re-boot of a 40 year old property that came from a simpler timer? Does Evil Lyn look good with that headpiece and has she always been blonde? And what happens to Adam's manhood when he turns into He-Man?   I mean, with that in mind, why wouldn't you listen? As The Countdown continues ...   Time Stamps: MotY NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 14:49 MotU SPOILER-FILLED Discussion: 14:49 - 20:30 Final Scores and Thoughts Including Potential Spoilers: 20:30 - 21:48   If you want more Countdowns and reviews - all the way back to Episode 40! - hit up our Podbean site.   There's more of Wayne over at his YouTube channel, Waxing & Wayning.   Join The Countdown Podcast Listener Community on Facebook so you can interact more directly with other listeners of the show (as well as the lads themselves!).

    Top 10 Last 10: Still Podcasting Edition

    Countdown #513   In an epic labour of love that stretched across three recording sessions, multiple hardware failures (and one act of dumb-assery), the lads are finally back with a full Countdown episode, and how could it be anything other than a Top 10 Last 10?     Join Wayne and Paul as they mini-review 10 of their most recent watches, ranking them from worst to best, to aid you in deciding what next to spend your precious time viewing.   Of course, there are disagreements along the way, but also a couple of moments of surprising consensus, just to keep you on your toes.

    Mortal Kombat II Review

    In this completely NON-SPOILER review, Wayne is again off to the cinema himself to review the second film in the 2020s version of a game he grew up pumping free credits into (not a euphemism) for himself and his friends. How does this compare to the '90s films and is it better than the 2021 original in this series? Paul, meanwhile, hasn't see the film at the time of recording, so he's all about the questions and insisting Wayne spoils nothing!   If you want more Countdowns and reviews - all the way back to Episode 40! - hit up our Podbean site.   Check out Wayne's YouTube channel for more Wayne-esque content at Waxing & Wayning.   Join The Countdown Podcast Listener Community on Facebook so you can interact more directly with other listeners of the show (as well as the lads themselves!).

    Project Hail Mary review

    In this completely NON-SPOILER  review, Wayne goes a little crazy for this Gosling shaped brand of entertainment that Andy Weir, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller has fashioned, resulting in him giving Project Hail Mary the most definitive two thumbs down of all time! (This will make sense if you've seen the movie ...) Paul, meanwhile, hasn't see the film at the time of recording, so he's all about the questions and insisting Wayne spoils nothing!   If you want more Countdowns and reviews - all the way back to Episode 40! - hit up our Podbean site.   Check out Wayne's YouTube channel for more Wayne-esque content at Waxing & Wayning.   Join The Countdown Podcast Listener Community on Facebook so you can interact more directly with other listeners of the show (as well as the lads themselves!).

    The Top 10 Films of 2025 - Without Jason From Binge Movies

    Countdown #511   A long time ago, in a galaxy exactly like this one, three podcasters recorded their regular crossover event in which the American joined the two Australians to talk the best films of the previous calendar year.   But the stars were not aligned that day, my friends. For the American had technical difficulties and his end of the conversation was lost to the Dark Movie Overl- sorry, wrong show - to the ether, forever.    It took many moons until the Australians felt ready to again scale the mountain that is this massive topic, knowing they would be doing so without their American friend. But here, now, eventually, finally, that episode is yours to enjoy.   But while doing so, spare a thought for the American in this story. Maybe go over and give his final season of Binge Movies a listen - one of the Australians did, after all, feature on the most recent ranking episode - the supposedly second last in that show's existence.   Or, if you're ready for some blood and gore, hit up that same American-Australian combo with ANOTHER (lovely) American over on the soon to be completed second season of The Slashers.   But whatever way you cut it, get ready to hear about the very best films that last year had to offer. In mid-March of the following year (but whatever) ...   Want more?
