Brenda from Horrifying History joins Sean to review Atonement. This review is an in-depth look at the making of the film and the themes prevalent in the story. 

Brenda and Sean notice, however, that it is not a film to watch when you are feeling low. Brenda analyses the film fantastically whilst Sean delves into the history of the British Institution Marks & Spencer.  

Mixing love, war, class, gender roles and lies, with a story that is not sacrificed or overtaken by these themes, this film is an underrated gem.  Is it Clue or Cluedo?  

Thanks for listening!  

Brenda will return in: 'Clue' (1985)

Attempting to exorcise the waffle, Sean debuts the first "I can't be bothered to review this one properly' episode. He gives his thoughts on Scream (2022) and explains in two-minutes what he thought and why it didn't get a full-length review.

A teaser for an upcoming episode! 

Discover where #BreakingBill began.

Bill from 'Bill Reads Bad Reviews' joins Sean to discuss the third Mummy film (Yes there was a third one). Bill doesn't think he's seen it before and brings a few bad reviews along.

Bill and Sean stupidly decide to try and apply logic to the film and ask important questions such as: 

-What was with the goofy humour?  

-Would this film have been received more favourably if it came out in the 90's? 

-What does waffle/waffling mean? Listen in to find out!

Guesting this week are Liam, David and Mitchell from Wait…What!? Podcast. With 5 minutes Sean has stumbled across a VHS copy of Batman & Robin (1997), which disgusts Liam. 

The trio and Sean ponder whether Post Companies use this film as a training video. The guys get serious (for about five minutes) to discuss the parts of the film which would never be seen as acceptable in a film today. 

The episodes then descends into a discussion about the Watford Gap, VAR, and the football. 

Thanks to the trio for coming onto my podcast. 

Thanks for listening. 

This episode contains strong language and adult humour.

Despite her reservations Sean's Mam loved the film. 

-They discuss the themes of the film, along with the Home Alone remake (WHY?), and the late, great Alan Rickman's surprising turn doing pantomime (I'm pretty sure it wasn't him).  

Listen through to the end on this one! 

Thanks for listening.

In a 'Pre-conceptions' episode, Sean's mam joins the podcast to discuss the film Shallow Hal. Having never seen it before she briefly explains why she's never fancied watching it. 

Tangents include:

-Roy Kinnear

-Impromptu nights out

-American, Sean Connery and Willy Wonka impressions thrown in for good measure.

They also attempt to answer: 

-What is Hal short for? 

-What is a vestigial tail? 

This one really makes my other podcasts sound boring.  

Thanks for listening. 

"We can go...we can just go": These words give Sean the green light to go into a full-on tangent once again. What follows is a glorious tangent about Mr Blobby, the (terrifying) 1990's children's TV character, or "Nightmare Fuel" as Liam puts it.

Sean kicks it off by asking Liam, David and Mitchell what's annoyed them today towards the end of the Ace Venture (1994) review. This begins a conversation about Millennial technology, which somehow ends up at Mr Blobby.

Thanks for listening!

Sean and Mark from the 'Visually Stunning Movie Podcast' review Unbreakable (2000).

They ask: 

-Is this a film about depression or identity? 

-Was Split (2016) a back-door sequel to this film in order to make a proper sequel in Glass (2019)? 

Whilst pondering these questions Mark teaches Sean some basic American Football facts before they dive into the world of M. Night Shyamalan films.  

Thanks for listening! 

This podcast contains spoilers for Unbreakable, Split and Glass.

Taking a detour from their review of Unbreakable (2000), Sean and Mark discuss the return of Doctor Who under the control of RTD. They talk the different accents since Doctor Who returned in 2005 and their hopes that the show can reach the highest heights once again.
Sean completely messes up the Geography- incorrectly stating where Jodie Whittaker was from (She is from a part of Huddersfield) whilst Doctor Who has been based in Sheffield as of late. He compounds this by then getting parts of Yorkshire mixed up. Absolutely disgraceful.  

The opinions in this podcast are purely my own and come from a place of love for the show (as I'm sure do Mark's) and sadness to see it struggling in the ratings and having arguably lost it's way.
