    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?

    28 Years Later: The Bone Temple review

    Danny Boyle hands the reigns to Nia DaCosta as the saga of the rage virus and the country it has decimated continues ... But is it a better film than the love it or hate it first film in the proposed new trilogy? Does Wayne overcome his Wayneness to watch this one with Paul? Or will it be Paul doing the heavy lifting on this horror film? And most importantly, can a film released in January be truly good? You know the way to find out and it will encourage us to put more of these reviews out, so ...   Time Stamps: The Bone Temple NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 11:04 The Bone Temple SPOILER-FILLED Discussion: 11:04 - 18:58 Final Scores and Thoughts Including Potential Spoilers: 18:58 - 19:23   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 Best & Worst of 2025 Television

    Countdown #509   Just in time for the new year of film and television, Paul and Wayne return to begin their wrap up of the year that was 2025. And, as always, they begin with their lists of the best and worst of television!   Was it a banner year for TV? Will future generations look back and marvel at what we were able to watch from the comfort of our couches through 2025? Or is this one of those years that will slip into obscurity without anything to truly set it apart from the decades of television that came before it? Does the good outweigh the bad? Or is there more to lambast than there is to praise?   There's only one way to find out - at least, if you care about anything Wayne and Paul have to say - and that's to hit the play button and sit back to enjoy The Countdown, as it (intermittently!) continues...   Want more?

Prepare yourself for an episode without much in the way of outrage, derision, snorts of disbelief, or rueful chuckles at what might have been, as Wayne has read only two on Paul's list and Paul has read none of what Wayne is putting out there.   So get ready to add to your TBR Pile, as The Countdown stutters but resumes!   Want more?
