Fuds On Film

We transport ourselves to the far-flung future dystopia of three years ago to take in some Rollerball, and an indeterminate post-apocalyptica for a round of The Blood of Heroes, or The Salute of the Jugger if you'd rather. Are either of these sci-fi sports worth purchasing a season ticket for? Tune in and find out!

With Dickie Davies on stand-by, we return to the world of sport to cast a critical eye over Downhill Racer, Any Given Sunday, Warrior, 42, The Way Back, and Schumacher in our continuing effort to find out which sport is best. There's only one way to find out. Listen in!

Another month, another random assortment of films face our terrible judgement. Get out thoughts on Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Ron’s Gone Wrong, Finch, The French Dispatch, and Dune. Appeals for clemency will be denied.

Sometimes you just can't trust the contents of your own head, particularly in these loosely connected films, Repo Men and Source Code. Listen in and see if they are worth inserting into your mindtank.

In this episode we take stock of Shane Meadow's movie output, and see if his examinations of English working class stories and characters have stood the test of time. Listen in to get our takes of varying temperature on Small Time, TwentyFourSeven, A Room for Romeo Brass, Once Upon a Time in the Midlands, Dead Man's Shoes, This Is England, Somers Town, and Le Donk & Scor-zay-zee.

No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to listen to us talk about The Chambermaid, Prisoners of the Ghostland, The Protege, Stillwater, and No Time To Die. Get our activated charcoal filtered opinions in our latest podcast episode!

Following on from our last episode on the films of John Huston, we thought we'd change things up with a look at two more John Huston films. This time it's his first, and still one of his most iconic films, The Maltese Falcon, and a rather more obscure outing from over a decade later that's considered a loose parody of that films form, Beat the Devil.

We take a look at a cross-sectional smattering of John Huston's work in todays episode, namely The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Key Largo, The African Queen, The Night of the Iguana, The Man Who Would Be King, and The Dead. Listen in as we brass it out with bags of swank.

We give a thorough examination to The Green Knight, Reminiscence, Space Jam: A New Legacy, and Enforcement in this latest grab-bag-aploosa. Are they worth your time or not worth a dime? Tune in and find out!

Robert Ludlum was a prolific author of primarily Cold War espionage thrillers, and so in a way it's surprising that so few of his works made their way into cinema screens, and the vast bulk of those were part of the The Jason Bourne Imbroglio. In this episode, for no real reason other than a fondness for espionage bunkum and baroque titling, we are skipping over the various TV miniseries and taking a look at two earlier adaptations, 1983's The Osterman Weekend and 1985's The Holcroft Covenant.
