This week we take a look at the second most expensive TV show of all time, the flashy waste of money that is Amazon's Citadel, from the Russo Bros., one of the most expensive French films of all time, Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan, a great Evil Dead sequel in Rise, the Superman 4K collection, Kieslowski's Three Colours Trilogy in 4K, and a bunch of good TV like Florida Man, The Diplomat, Yellowjackets Season 2, Dead Ringers, and Sweet Tooth Season 2.

This week Ed presents the AVForums Podcast and we discuss the latest HiFi, AV and TV news, Jules tells us all about his recent LG G3 MLA OLED calibration and why it just might be the TV of the year. Martin looks at budget home cinema with the Emotiva MC1 processor review, while Doug looks at a 5.1 system based on the new Bowers and Wilkins 700 S3 speakers. Plus, we get Ed's album, playlist and vinyl choices.

This week we talk about how Nicolas Cage might be the best thing at the cinemas at the moment - Renfield going up against the likes of Super Mario Bros., Assassin Club and Mummies - discuss the best and worst Superman sequel from the original series, investigate some good Gerard Butler on 4K in the form of Plane, Second Sight's latest lavish box set in Picnic at Hanging Rock 4K, Arrow's latest - Cronenberg’s Naked Lunch in 4K - and Arrow's upcoming release of the next highly anticipated Michael Mann release… Blackhat. Plus we catch up on Mando, Picard and some of the best other TV out there like The Last Thing He Told Me, The Night Agent, Slasher and Shrinking… but NOT True Lies.

We celebrate First Contact Day with Simon taking a look at the new 4K releases of the Next Generation movies, whilst Mark reflects on the horror classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and its lavish new 4K release from Second Sight. Plus Tom and Mark argue over the score for Dungeons and Dragons, which may actually be a good new adaptation. Plus all the latest movie and disc news.

This week there's a look at Samsung and LG's 2023 TV prices for UK consumers plus reviews of the Sharp 55FN2KA LCD TV, Amazon's latest Fire TV Cube and an automatic turntable from Dual. We also hear about the kit a professional display calibrator uses and round up all of the latest news from the worlds of TV, Home AV and Hi-Fi.

We're back and going boxing for the first part of the podcast, talking about the Rocky films cleaning up in 4K, and Creed 3 reigning at the box office, and really looking at boxing movies and what makes them work. There's more DC at the cinema too with Shazam 2, whilst we STILL wait for The Flash which is still being touted as the greatest superhero movie ever made ever. And dinosaurs are back, with 65 proving a whole lot more fun than anything else Jurassic in years. And we look at some quality sci-fi/fantasy TV, discussing if they figured out how to course-correct on Picard, or are likely to fall at the last hurdle? And Mando’s back - does it make up for The Fett?

Phil reports back from Sony's European HQ where he got a close up look at the company's 2023 TV line up which promises even brighter QD-OLED models this year. There're also reviews of the pocket-friendly Sony HT-S400 soundbar and the impressive Yamaha R-N2000A integrated amp, plus all the latest news from the worlds of TV, Home AV and Hi-Fi.

This week we have an exclusive interview with Producer Jasper Sharp, from Arrow Video, taking a look at his background in writing, directing and now producing titles, some of the discs he has worked on, including Arrow's Battle Royale 4K and Ju-On The Grudge 4K sets, and his latest release, The House that Screamed, what it takes to get a disc out, sourcing the cuts and extra material, and what he thinks of the future of physical media.

We interview Philips' Danny Tack, Senior Director of Product Strategy and Planning, about the company's 2023 TV lineup and its plans for QD-OLED. Plus Ed reports back from the first Bristol Hi-Fi Show in over two years. There's a look at Netflix's Spatial Audio and a review of the HiFi Rose RS250A network streamer. We also discuss the first stages of planning a new home cinema build.

We're going small for this podcast and talking about the latest Marvel entry at the cinema, Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantummania, the latest Marvel movie on 4K, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and the question that keeps popping up for most MCU fans - will it ever get back on track after Endgame? I guess with Feige's new 80-year plan he's leaving the answer to that question in the hands of his successor(s). So Mark's going to tell us about what everybody should really be watching right now - Eight for Silver - as well as talking about The Woman King on 4K and why Picard may be good again, Tom will be reviewing Ant-Man and singing the praises of Lockwood on Netflix, whilst Simon's still training for his Rocky 4K collection review. And, apart from Wakanda 4K, I'll be talking about Alice, Darling and Empire of Light, and the final season of Carnival Row.
