If you've ever wondered what the Lawrence brothers, stars of such DCOMs as Horse Sense, Jumping Ship and The Other Me were up to in 2020, the answer is making Money Plane, a heist movie about a high stakes casino in the sky where you can bet on a man having relations with an alligator. Look, it was a bad year for everyone, alright?

The film follows Jack Reese (Edge), a retired Special Heisting Guy who is forced into taking down the Money Plane by the baddest mother-effer on the planet, Darius Emmanuel Grouch III AKA The Rumble (Kelsey Grammer). But will Jack's ragtag heist crew have what it takes to tussle with the Money Plane's clientele of arms dealers and Yosemite Sam cosplayers? Can they steal a billion dollars worth of crypto and make it out unscathed? And what are we actually betting on when we bet on a man f***ing an alligator? Listen and find out!

We've all imagined how we would build a better boy (built in jetpack/hair made of candy/is actually a dog instead) but few of us have the technology at our disposal to make our dreams a reality. Not so teen geniuses Gabby and Mae, thanks to advanced character creation technology belonging to Mae's dad, a famous videogame designer who doesn't appear to have actually designed any games.

Except get this: Mae's dad actually works for the Department of Defence, and by fiddling around in his office trying to make the perfect super hunk, Mae and Gabby have accidentally created the military cyborg X17, AKA Albert, who is more than just the perfect prom date: he's the perfect weapon to defeat America's Enemies At Home And Abroad. But can Mae and Gabby keep Albert safe from the military? How will he navigate high school life? And will he revert to his original programming and just kill *everyone*? Listen and find out!

Are celebrities human beings who deserve basic respect and human dignity? Of course not, you're thinking, they're scum and deserve everything bad that happens to them and more. But to that I say: watch the Disney Channel Original Movie Starstruck. You might learn a thing or two.

Starstruck follows the adventures of Jessica, a girl with no hobbies or interests who goes to Los Angeles to visit her grandmother and ends up being violently abducted by teen singing sensation Christopher Wilde. So far, so Hollywood. But before long, Jessica realises that Christopher isn't the unfeeling monster she thought he was, and starts to fall for this sunglass-centric singer. Can Jessica and Christopher find love despite coming from two different worlds? Can Christopher maintain a perfectly neutral reputation with the press? And does Jessica's family care *at all* about her vanishing for long stretches of time and returning with head wounds? Listen and find out!

While not officially a DCOM, Susie Q (1996) offered an opportunity for the Disney Channel to start experimenting with what works and what doesn't in a Disney Channel film. For example, high concept premise? Great, love it. Cute romance blossoming between reluctant companions? Also good, let's keep that. Shot of one of the main characters' smashed up corpse in the first four minutes? Probably we don't need to do that one again.

And yet without that smashed up corpse we wouldn't have Susie Q (Amy-Jo Johnson), a plucky ghost from the 1950s who shows up in the go-go nineties to right a terrible wrong with the help of the only person who can see her, Zach (Justin Whalin). But can Susie and Zach solve a decades-old mystery without everyone thinking Zach is crazy? Can the town's evil property developer be stopped? And did Zach really kill his own father with an incredible basketball dunk? Listen and find out!

The 2008 Writer's Guild of America strike was responsible for many things: Increased pay for writers, especially in the context of the burgeoning streaming era. A boom in unscripted reality television. And, most regrettably of all, the plot of the Disney Channel Original Movie Dadnapped, in which a dad gets kidnapped.

But not just any dad. This dad is Neal Morris, author of the Tripp Zoome spy novels, and with him missing, it's up to his plucky daughter Melissa to get her father home safe, despite the notable drawbacks of a) being constantly haunted by intrusive hallucinations of popular character Tripp Zoome, b) there being two separate competing sets of kidnappers vying for possession of Neal and c) her dad quite liking being kidnapped. Will Melissa be able to save Neal and rescue Zoome Con? Can some non-union rando you found hanging around the YA aisle in Barnes & Noble write an entire movie screenplay? And why is everyone in this film always being covered in stinking fluid? Listen and find out!

Max Keeble has a lot of problems. His school's colourful bullies are out for his blood. An evil ice cream man wants to kill both him and skateboarding icon Tony Hawk. And he is friends with an unpleasant boy named Robe who wears a stinking bathrobe that canonically smells like diapers. But Max has an ace up his sleeve that none of these life obstacles will see coming: an imminent move to Illinois.

When Max's proto-furry father tells him the family are off to Chicago, Max realises that he is free of the consequences for his actions, and can do whatever he wants with no repercussions. But will Max's plan to get back at his bullies work out? Can he save his beloved animal shelter from demolition? And why are so many of the animals horny for Max's principal? Listen and find out!

Dedicating your life to scientific pursuits can have countless benefits for humanity, but you have to bear in mind the potential drawbacks. You could study something before its dangerous effects are known, like Marie Curie, invent something monumentally destructive, like J. Robert Oppenheimer, or accidentally fall through a time hole to the court of King Arthur like Dr. Vivian Morgan, the protagonist of the film we're here to talk about today.

Luckily, Vivian isn't the sort of person to get bogged down in things like 'trying to understand what happened' and 'attempting to get back to her home time', and instead throws herself wholeheartedly into her two passions: speedrunning the industrial revolution and murdering her rivals at court. But can she truly make life better for the serfs of England? Can Arthur be persuaded that the King's Law isn't always right? And why does Merlin keep spinning in a circle, emitting colourful gas? Listen and find out!

Those video games that the kids are always playing. Almost seems like they're hypnotised by them, doesn't it? But what if kids really were hypnotised by a videogame?! And that videogame had somehow been programmed by an octogenarian circus magician and ran on every console? Wait, go back one.

Yes, this week's So Weird is about that old science fiction staple, an evil videogame, programmed by a retired magician, that hypnotises children into becoming stockbrokers. How will Annie overcome the dastardly influence of Banglebye? And how did they make this entire episode without ever once showing us the game? Listen and find out!

What would you do with the incredible power of time travel? No, look... no, you can't stop historical tragedies from happening because you can only go back in time 48 hours so- no, you can't buy a lottery ticket either because you're a teenager in this scenario, so you- no, you can't see wonderful things all over the world, you have to remain within a 20 minute travel radius of your school. You'd use it to stop nerds embarrassing themselves two days in the past? Yeah, that's probably as good as it's going to get, isn't it.

That's the decision the heroes of this week's DCOM, 2008's Minutemen, also come to and before long they're popping out of a time hole to stop a nerd from getting pantsed, and barreling through the space time continuum to prevent a geek from walking around school with toilet paper stuck to his shoe. But when their chronovigilantism offers one of them a chance to undo his greatest mistake, will he take it? Listen and find out!
