The Kapeesh crew are back! (Well, some of them).

That's right, we are back for our new film reviews project. You guessed it (or you read the title)- we are tackling the Batman franchise.

And, to do it correctly, we started with the very first Batman serial film released in cinemas during the Second World War. So, that brings some interesting discussion about how Batman was used as a propaganda piece for the Americans against the Japanese, in amongst our thoughts on how it's dated from a cinematic perspective.

Join us as we delve into the performances of the very first big screen version of the Caped Crusader, the writing, music, action scenes and a barmy plot which involves ray guns and zombies.

Enjoy!

In this final podcast of 2022, the crew reconvene to discuss recent film viewings of the month of October (yes, edited over four months late).

In the (now not so new) films section, Scott hunts down and slashes the Halloween franchise with particular focus on Halloween Ends, Gordon and Steve B share their thoughts on the provocative Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde, and Steve also discusses The Sound of 007 on Amazon Prime.

In the TV section, we delve deep into the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon, Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 3 finale, Man Vs Bee, Doctor Who Season 13, Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story and the BBC documentary Russia 1985-1999: Trauma Zone.

And, if that wasn't enough, our Look Back section covers the rest of the Halloween series, The Final Destination, What We Do In The Shadows, The Italian Job, Orange County and Muriel's Wedding.

And we end with the sad news of Robbie Coltrane's passing - with a brief tribute to the great Scottish actor.

That all said, enjoy!

In this Deja-Revu episode, the Kapeesh crew are stuck in a time paradox which somehow involves discussing the (proper) James Cameron film debut in spoilerific detail - for eternity.

So, if you have a few endless life cycles on you, give it a listen as we discuss the merits of one of cinema's classics. We go into our feelings on Schwarzenegger's star-making turn as the titular baddie, Linda Hamilton's brilliant performance as the soldier-in-making Sarah Connor and, of course, Michael Biehn's intense portrayal of Kyle Reese.

We also delve into plot, writing, Brad Fidel's inconic score and a whole load on the very logistics of the time travel storyline. Not to mention where it may have dated (ahem, stop-motion effects).

It's one not to be missed. Unless of course you are currently being targeted for termination. In that case, good luck!

For everyone else, enjoy!

In this stupendously epic podcast, we reconvene to discuss our film and TV viewings from the month of September 2022 (yes, slight delay in editing).

We cover Idris Elba's latest Beast, Taika Waititi's much derided Thor: Love and Thunder and we try to remember details from Liam Neeson's assassin thriller Memory.

In the TV section, we delve deep into the latest Star Wars series Andor, the Lord of the Rings prequel series The Rings of Power, Game of Thrones' prequel series House of the Dragon, Star Trek: Lower Decks, The Boys Season 1 and 2 recap, Borat: American Lockdown (episode 1 only), Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, as well as documentaries Golden Era and the first episode of My Life as a Rolling Stone.

And if that isn't enough, in our Look Back section, we touch on both Austin Powers sequels (The Spy Who Shagged Me and Goldmember), Last Action Hero, Supergirl and I.T.

Enjoy!

Yeah, BABY, YEAH! Do we make you horny? How about randy? In fact, don't answer that.

In this very shagadelic episode, we rewatch Mike Myers' Bond parody released in 1997 and directed by Jay Roach. After a middling cinema run, the film would become a home video sensation and would propel the character and franchise into box office gold(member), with two sequels over the subsequent five years.

In this very groovy recap, we discuss the film's merit with particular focus on characters, style of humour, music and its effective parody of the Bond franchise. We also delve deep into where the film has aged with particular focus on moments that would likely be omitted in 2022. Because that IS our bag, baby.

So, grab your Swedish-Made Penis Enlarger Pumps (with accompanying receipt), don your best frilly shirt and sit down with us to journey forward from 1969 into a classic '90s comedy.

And, of course, enjoy!

In this episode, Steve is joined by Fran and Mr. McCaul for this monthly catchup covering our August viewings in new films, television series and older movies in the Look Back section.

The Kapeesh crew assemble their best historians, archeologists and swashbuckling rogues for this epic podcast covering director Steven Spielberg's third outing for the lovable adventurer.

And in true Kapeesh form, we delve deep with our thoughts on the major characters, actor performances, plot, screenplay and John Williams' score. Of course, we also spend some time on comparing it to the previous films in the series as well as raising a substantial amount of money each time James Bond is referenced.

So, for anyone with any reverence for this classic film released in 1989, then give our spoilerific discussion a listen and - of course - enjoy!

In this (now standard) epic podcast, the Kapeesh crew spare no expense and rewatch Spielberg's classic 1993 family horror/blockbuster Jurassic Park to give an in-depth analysis of this stellar movie.

The film heralded major advancements in digital animation, special effects and audio design and would go onto become one of the most successful films of the 20th Century.

In this cast, we delve deep into the characters, cinematography, John Williams' score and many more facets as well as where it has dated nearly thirty years later.
