This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2002 American psychological thriller film, Phone Booth.
Thomas continues to crunch numbers, and bread tags. Colin crosses to the Dark Side.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2009 action film, Fast & Furious.
Thomas swaps democracy sausages for Fish & Chips, and once again walks to earn it. Colin gets trapped in a MTB/Walker disputed territory.
Colin apologises profusely for not registering The Deranged Cat Studio as a No-Fly Zone during the recording, and not pausing the recording as the Boeing 777-9 flew overhead during Thomas' reading of N₂Osferatu's (Hi, N₂Osferatu!) story.

Fast & Furious is the first theatrical release to feature D-BOX motion! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Box_Technologies

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2025 Japanese action thriller film, Shinkansen Daibakuha, or Bullet Train Explosion.
Thomas suffers catastrophic bipodal failure, but not before scoring himself a democracy sausage. He namedrops a heap of non-existent TV shows. Colin has a faceoff with a denizen of the deep. Or shallows.

Tokyo-based architecture professor Shane Flynn said Shibuya Crossing is "a great example of what Tokyo does best when it's not trying".

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2020 American superhero film, The Old Guard.
Thomas finishes two sets of Blueprints. Colin misremembers: The "Bad Guy" in the Famous Five was NOT a Harry Potter Alumni, but a Game of Thrones Alumni! He is also most apologetic for not formally greeting e of pi.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 1948 American neo-western film, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
Colin gets a bit quirky. Thomas gets wrapped up in Blueprints and Explainers. He also completely misses what is arguably Australia's most recognised bird.

The number 1.37:1 refers to the Academy ratio (not "Cinema Ratio", as Colin foolishly calls it), a standard aspect ratio for film that was widely used from the 1930s to the 1950s.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2006 action film, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
Thomas gets lost in the Northern Suburbs. Colin discovers muscles he never knew he had, and the pair may or may not have had cake - for extra-special reasons they totally fail to disclose! Colin loses his left kidney.

According to movie-locations.com, "Apart from scene-setting, though, most of the film was shot around LA. The vast garage with the spiral ramp, where Sean gets to meet all the kids, is Hawthorne Plaza Mall, Hawthorne Boulevard at 120th Street, Hawthorne, to the south of Los Angeles (those nighttime views over ‘Tokyo’ from the garage roof were added digitally)." https://movie-locations.com/movies/f/Fast-And-The-Furious-Tokyo-Drift.php
Looking at google maps, the carpark of the mall - abandoned since 1999 - is only four levels high, so although the scene WAS all filmed here (not two different carparks) there was some "playing" with carpark heights! https://maps.app.goo.gl/TkbXzhMroDMhDuc16

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2008 American science fiction action film, Jumper.
Thomas buys socks, and Colin misnames the ball of the foot, because he ain't got no sole. Colin also realises that he'd missed a comment on last weeks episode: Sorry ★Katelyn★!
Even though it received negative reviews from critics, Jumper was a box office success making $225M WW on an $85M budget.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2019 science fiction film, Ad Astra. Wikipedia says the writer/director "wanted to feature "the most realistic depiction of space travel that's been put in a movie"".
Thomas goes for a walk. Colin goes for a crawl, and gets his wires crossed.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2025 American science fiction action-adventure film, The Electric State.
Thomas rewrites the lyrics of Slade's epic rock-y Scottish Jig - although Colin prefers GBS's cover. (Well yeah, that's Thomas' reference point, too. -Ed.) Colin makes toast and waffles.

This week, Thomas and Colin watch the 2003 action film, 2 Fast 2 Furious.
Thomas has an amazing adventure you won't want to miss. Colin dons Urban Camo on his Camera. They get into some deep theological musings. SHOCKER ALERT: Thomas actually gives this film A SCORE!!!
