It’s the end of the world as we know it. And we feel fine!

On the pod this week we discuss our favourite end of the world movies. Oh, and reviews:


Bottoms (In cinemas)
Leave The World Behind (Netflix Dec 7)
Godzilla Minus One (In cinemas)
Faraway Downs (Hulu/Disney+)

This week a new free streaming service launched in Australia. It’s called Brollie and it has a good collection of arthouse and cult movies. Dan and Simon offer their thoughts on the service and each choose some recommendations from the library.

Also… reviews:

Napoleon (In cinemas and soon on Apple TV+)

Fargo season 5 (SBS On Demand, or Hulu in the US)

The Royal Hotel (In cinemas now)

Squid Game: The Challenge

This week Dan and Simon are joined by a different film critic named Simon. It is Simon Miraudo who has just written the really fantastic Book of The Banned: Devilish Movies, Dastardly Censors, and the Scenes That Made Australia Sweat.

Also on the pod, we have reviews. This week:


Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (Apple TV+)
The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (In cinemas now)
The Curse (Paramount+)
Saltburn

We kick off the pod with an extended chat about the resolution of the SAG-AFTRA strike and discuss what happens now. Then we dive into reviews:


The Marvels - in cinemas now
007: Road To a Million - it’s streaming on Prime Video
The Killer - David Fincher’s new film is on Netflix
My Adventures with Superman - it finally arrived in Australia, streaming on Binge

This week in the Intermission Dan and Simon attempt to fix Marvel with big brain ideas.



Oh, and then there are weekly reviews of NCIS Sydney (Paramount+), Five Nights at Freddy’s (In cinemas, Peacock), Lawman: Bass Reeves (Paramount+), and Fingernails (Apple TV+).

You will be SHOCKED by our thoughts on the new Martin Scorsese film Killers of The Flower Moon (In cinemas now, but on Apple TV+ sometime soon-ish). You will be CAPTIVATED by what we have to say about Fellow Travellers (Paramount+). You’ll be (in fairness) MIDLY INTERESTED in our thoughts on Bodies (Netflix). And then you will be IN A STATE OF UNBRIDLED NOSTALGIA as we discuss the Wiggles documentary Hot Potato (Prime Video).
