On this week's episode things got a little too close to home when Sam and Danny reviewed the psychological drama Queen of Earth. A film about two friends who are so closely bonded that at times it's as if they're sharing one personality, also one of them makes jingles......spookyPlus we examine the latest surrounding theme song writer and part time actor Idris Elba, raise an eyebrow at the bizarre Margot Robbie piece in Vanity Fair and get more political than Ken Loach at a Billy Bragg concert when discussing all thing Chilcot

The chaos engulfing the United Kingdom hasn’t left Film Chat unscathed, as for the second week in a row this episode is out super late. Sorry listeners! Blame Nigel Farage, you might as well.This week, Danny reports back on the transporting experience of watching dreamlike Colombian drama Embrace of the Serpent, and Sam rambles on about charming low-key British comedy Adult Life Skills. We also challenge Billy Zane’s claim that his character in Titanic is the film’s true hero; discuss directing duo Daniels’ dream to remake White Chicks as an intense, Oscar-bait drama; and dissect at length and repeatedly the epic trailer for the latest Dan Brown adaptation, Inferno.

Inspired by that film's amicable male bonding, we conduct the whole episode big cheery grins on our stupid faces, deeply appreciating each other's company.Exchanging supportive thumbs-ups throughout, we also discuss Rogue One's extensive reshoots, bitch about trailers-within-trailers, and almost come to blows over the end of L.A. Confidential.

There are two things that Danny and Sam love, talking to chicks and battling omnipotent, ancient, megalomaniacal mutants. As luck would have two films have come out that cater to those weirdly specific needs as they review laid back bro drama, Everybody Wants Some!! and urgent, exploady film, X-Men: Apocalypse.We also discuss the news surrounding the upcoming Power Rangers film, a third Django movie and postulate what the best film to get absolutely gazeboed to is.

This week, Danny and Sam review two films about the tribulations of adolescence. The musical coming-of-age story Sing Street shows that poverty, family dysfunction and mean priests can be overcome by the power of love and wonderfully synthy pop music; in the Turkish family drama Mustang, synthy music is in woefully short supply for five orphaned sisters kept cooped up by their ultra-patriarchal uncle. Plus: I tell Danny he CANNOT BE SERIOUS about Shia LaBoeuf's latest role; we also wonder whether those skeptical about the new Ghostbusters movie are slightly sexist or massively sexist; and we suggest replacing Daniel Craig's Bond with the obvious choice, Brad Pitt as a Benjamin-Button-esque old man baby.
