This week the Fast crew, Nabil Sharda , Carson Rekert , Oscar Davila and of course Mr.Franchise, get together to take Fate of the Furious for a spin. Are they teeing up Scott Eastwood to be our new Paul Walker? Is every villain destine to become a hero? Will there ever be justice for Han? Our thoughts on all this and more are just a click away.

This week Christopher is joined by the absolutely lovely Clinton Hallahan to talk Final Destination 1 & 2. As the cheese of movie one gives way to the heightened insanity of number two, these movies can run as fast as they like but they can't escape a thorough rating.

This week Chris invites out Mathew Macdonald-Bain and Nabil Sharda to discuss the sci-fi three-quel Predators. There's plenty to talk about with a stelar cast, a classic franchise and a great movie monster. This one is as fun as a barrel of monkeys so I hope you like the sound of grown men giggling.

In the follow up to last week's Red Dragon, Mr.Franchise discusses the 1986 adaptation of the same novel, Manhunter. Joined by Nabil Sharda and Carson Rekert, they express their very different opinions on this Michael Mann film. At least they can agree that it looks good...

In the first of two Hannibal themed episodes this week, Christopher invites out Nabil Sharda and Carson Rekert to talk Red Dragon. They talk about what Bret Ratner (the director of Rush Hour) brings to the Dr.Lecter saga and they even dip in to a little talk about the TV series as well. The comparisons to Manhunter are plentiful but there will be more to talk about with Manhunter getting it's own episode later this week.
