Project A Plus

We determine the essential worth of Dan Gilroy's horror-satire, Velvet Buzzsaw. Bonus features: some stuff Hunter watched, wasn't really listening.

We gnaw on Joe Cornish's second feature, The Kid Who Would Be King. Bonus features: Spirited Away, Can You Ever Forgive Me? and more!

We tackle Netflix's Alfonso Cuarón's Roma and make scant progress on our IMDb project. Bonus features: The Godfather Part III, Modern Times and more!

We commence a new project: re-ordering the IMDb Top 250 Movies list. Before we can knock The Shawshank Redemption off its perch, however, we must first go through the entire list, in tedious detail, and note down which films we have and have not seen. And then go away and watch all the films we haven't seen. And then come back ten years later and get to the actual re-ordering part. It’s an hour and a half of us reading a list! Featuring uneven audio levels, poor compression and episode-spanning typing sounds!

We attempt to capture the feeling (yes, feeling! The very thing that makes us human!) of watching competent yet tedious Drake Doremus films in podcast form after wilfully subjecting ourselves to 2015's Equals and 2017's Newness. Bonus features: The Thin Red Line, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and The Mule!

In this geography-defying seasonal special (released just in time for Christmas!) we gather before a crackling fireplace, sip hot buttered rum and try to impose some order on the shit-smeared garbage pile that was 2018. Want to know our top 15 favourite films of last year plus a bunch of other nonsense? Take two hours out of whatever precious time you have left in which to do things and find out!

This week, we dive into Damien Chazelle's First Man and prematurely wind up our Fassbinder series with Ali: Fear Eats the Soul and Fox and His Friends. Bonus features: Taipei Story, The Conversation and more! Plus a VERY SPECIAL GUEST!

We dive into the next two films in our Fassbinder series, The Merchant of Four Seasons and The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant. Bonus features: Strike, A Brighter Summer Day and much more!

We wonder if the world needs a fourth A Star Is Born and begin a new series on the films of Rainer Werner Fassbinder with a look at Love Is Colder Than Death and The American Soldier.

This week, we luxuriate in the cinematic output of Bob Dylan. Almost all of it! Featuring Don't Look Back, Eat the Document, Renaldo and Clara and Masked and Anonymous. Plus we unearth four hitherto unheard Dylan originals!
