There Will Be Movies

Fire up your preferred Skype machine and join us for a discussion of in-yan, yearning and immigration questions. Is Matt projecting? Who won Benjis? Come find out!Hey maybe you used to be the podcaster and WE were the listeners! Ignore the fact podcasting was invented in our lifetime.

For the first time in the history of the podcast Matt took zero notes and tried to match Ben's 'off the dome' acumen... and he simply could not have picked a worse episode given the various twists and turns at play in this Korean detective tale. Open up your translator apps, takes some voice notes on your smart watch and lets climb the expert route of podcasting together.

You think you know The Lion King? You know nothing of The Lion King. Oh, sorry, Hamlet. You know nothing of Hamlet.Crawl into our weird shamanic chamber, start howling like a wolf, and learn all about Olde English Oral Tradition, Bjork's film career and of course unique Icelandic apps.

It seems Matt truly can just have everything he wants as he follows up on his most controversial selection ever last week with truly exhaustive detail on The Batman, resulting in one of our longest episodes ever. Sorry, Ben.This is a first for this particular podcast, which used to have a 'No Capes' rule, but we tossed most of these restrictions out for this volume, which means the floodgates really burst as we get into one of fiction's most enduring characters, the career of Matt Reeves, the various influences of this movie and its messy development history and try and solve some riddles together.Pack a lunch!

The tradition continues as Matt brings his annual eyebrow raising pick for Ben to politely tear apart. That's right it's time to talk the Netflixification of film, why everyone is so clean and what the heck has happened to most of these actors' careers as we talk The Harder They Fall.

Come and listen to two idiots locked in a life-long grudge talking about two idiots with a life-long grudge. Who's to say which pair are less qualified to talk about the subject matter, really? At least there's insane costuming and accent choices to lighten the tone!

Players of 'Stuff Matt Likes in Movies Bingo' should have their cards at the ready as we head to Norway to experience some deep Millennial Malaise. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll hear about The Benjis.

Make sure your seatbelts are fastened because it's time for 40 minutes of uncomfortable car journeys, rapidly-changing hobbies, ice cream in the snow and of course a great deal of allegorical discourse. Never change, Charlie Kaufman.

We're back baby!We simply couldn't wait to start talking about the 2020s so decided to launch Volume 5.1 to cover 2020-2024, starting with Christopher Nolan's brain-breaking Tenet.Does Matt even understand the film?

Naturally one of the most important movies about racism in America requires deep discussion of how IMDb works, sneaker culture and villains of the Far Cry games...Music courtesy of Goldblume

What's the bigger mystery here: How this movie ended up on our Best of the 80s list, or what the heck these spices from the Algarve could possibly be? We can only answer one of them for you!Music courtesy of Goldblume

Somewhere in amidst this thorough examination of American financial systems, European travel and outdated dollar denominations there's some chat about Midnight Run, we promise.Music courtesy of Goldblume

The Christmas Season can officially kick off because it's Die Hard time, and you've never heard Matt so excited. Lets talk set design, 80s henchmen, Alan Rickman's devastating good looks and obviously Circle Theory.Music courtesy of Goldblume

Isn't it weird how we made it 95 episodes of a movie podcast without any animation? Well, there's a good reason for that which Ben will explain...(Another episode impacted by the weird audio sync so we'll be talking over each other without realising. Edited out as much as we could. Sorry!)Music courtesy of Goldblume

'OMG shut up about Aaron Sorkin, Matt!' - you, listening to this, probably. No, but for real, it's a nice episode!Music courtesy of Goldblume
