Lord Marcus and Mr. B kick off a brand-new Film Dogs series: “A Week With” – seven films that we would use to introduce someone to a filmmaker, not a strict “best of” or ranked top 7. Think of it as spending seven nights on the couch with one of cinema’s greats and asking, “Who is this person, really?”

To launch the series, we’re starting big: Sir Ridley Scott. Across seven movies we talk about the worlds he builds, the way he shoots bodies and battlefields, his obsession with shoot first fix it later… and which iconic titles we controversially leave out of the line-up. You won’t believe what’s left in and what’s taken out.

Follow along with our Ridley Scott week, tell us your seven-film line-up.

Lord Marcus and Mr. B are back for round 2! Drafting their favourite films from before the year of Mr B's birth... 1988.

Of course, Lord Marcus continues to march to the beat of his own drum by drafting a rather odd film he classifies as "fun", along with then taking MULTIPLE FILMS from one of his most influential international directors.  Mr. B honours a childhood family favourite along with taking some obvious on-brand choices from some legendary directors. 

The 7 draft categories used:

For your pleasure and for something a little different, in this episode Lord Marcus and Mr. B offer their live thoughts and reactions during a watch-along of this year's Oscars ceremony. 

Mr. B sets off Lord Marcus by claiming to have inspired his love of Adrien Brody's performance in The Brutalist and Lord Marcus shares his anti-love of Ben Stiller.  We show some love to the winners and their speeches.  For a deeper dive, our last episode is a good look into who the Film Dogs wanted to win on the big night. The rants are too many to count but this was fun episode indeed. 

The conversation has been heavily edited to get rid of the extended ad breaks and silence and have left you with the meat and potatoes of the night.  Enjoy!

In this episode, Mr. B and Lord Marcus share thoughts on "who should actually WIN" at the upcoming 2025 Oscars.  We also harken back to the fairytale beginnings of the Film Dogs Podcast, names that didn't work, "wait... they actually have dogs?!?!" and why are we the way we are [an impossible question we try to answer]?

Also included, Mr B. gives you a tip for ordering at restaurants and gives musical ode to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Lord Marcus rants around the controversial use of AI in film making, the ridiculousness of the "us vs. them" mentality, why we excluded but still applaud specific films in our Oscar discussion, and of course... 30 Seconds to Mars...?

In this episode, Mr. B and Lord Marcus start the New Year off right by drafting their most anticipated movies set to be released in 2025.  A lot has happened since the 2024 Movie Draft (listen to that episode here), so they take a moment for deep breathing before battle axes are drawn.

There's a continual roasting of Mr B's choices in last year's draft, along with a few surprise picks by both parties, and even a few trade proposals are made.  It wouldn't be the Film Dogs if Lord Marcus didn't have a rant and this time Rian Johnson are is in his cross-hairs, as well as, taking turns shredding the 2024 head-scratcher of a film; WOLFS... look out!

Just like the Film Dogs, depending on your country of residence or film festival attendances, you may not have gotten every 2023 release until... mid-2024 (crazy) so they wanted to give ample time to watch, include, and discuss their favourite must-see movies of the year.

This episode starts off with Mr. B and Lord Marcus doing a movie draft and ends with each ranking their top 10 movies of the year.  Honourable mentions are included, along with their recommendations on who is actually deserving of their Oscars...

In this episode, Lord Marcus & Mr. B recap this year's BIFF: Brisbane International Film Festival with their favourite films. Lord Marcus compares Debussy's "Clair De Lune" to "Return of The Jedi". The Film Dogs show up to a red carpet, wearing their board shorts, Film Dog tees, and flip-flops...  Lord Marcus goes on a rant  that all 'weird' movies CANNOT be compared to David Lynch films, as well as the "Netflixification" of cinema over lofi-creation and appreciation.  Mr. B calls "I Saw The TV Glow" the new "Garden State" for post-millennials and explains why you should watch movies you don't agree with.  Honourable mentions of movies they missed at the festival but are looking forward to. Lord Marcus let's Mr. B choose a free draft film for his birthday, and both hilariously close the pod.
