The dork knights, Arron & Andy are loading up their geek utility belts this week! Winging their way into chat about the new Batman film, erm... 'The Batman', starring everybody's favourite brooding, sparkly bloodsucker, Robert Pattinson. Also, Arron reports on the filming of the zombie epic, Zomblogalypse and Andy shares his childhood fear of the original 'War of the Worlds' movie. This isn't the podcast the internet needs right now... but it is the one it deserves!

When is a dead horse not a dead horse? When it's a horse-shaped mimetic polyalloy draped over a Coltan hyperalloy combat chassis! But is it still ok to flog it? And by the time the Avatar sequel comes around, will anyone alive remember the original? Plus, can CG and puppetry bring the right magic, in the Dark Crystal Netflix series?

SmorgasPod is back in the groove and straight into your ears with a chat about the Elton John biopic, Rocket Man! Plus, Andy finds a way to talk about Transformers and Ghostbusters! It's like Nerd Tourettes!

Music - Epidemic Sounds

We are in the Endgame now! More spoilers abound, as we talk about the second and third acts of the epic ending of a Marvelous era, and look forward to what is yet to come! Excelsior!

The cinematic superherofest of the decade is upon us! And we gather our gems, snap our fingers, and dust off our heroes (literally) as we plunge into a spoileriffic movie chat SO BIG, it is going to take TWO episodes to just scratch the surface!... We could do this all day!

It's a very tangential Friday, so buckle up, SmorgasPod fans, as we dive into a fat bucket of weirdness, not least of which: what in the name of Henson's Ghost are Sesame Street muppets doing promoting adult-only TV shows?!

It's resurrection time! No, not the Easter Bank Holiday kind, the "bringing back a franchise" kind! Andy has been to see Hellboy, and Arron isn't bothered, so we discuss, in a mostly spoiler free way, what is good, what is ok, and what can go to hell, about the new incarnation of the Dark Horse Comics hero. Naturally, chat also includes a bit of other Milla "Silent J" Jovovich vehicle, the much maligned (and rightly so) Resident Evil!

Be prepared to Don your cape and fly into Shaz-poiler territory this episode, as Andy goes I to detail on (literal) family superhero movie Shazam! Is it as fun as the trailers? Does it outstay its run time? Will it please DC fans and casual filmgoers alike? And is there a better real life superhero/villain name than Mark Strong anyway?

It has been Star Wars Celebration, and we have been TEASED! Episode IX has caught our eye in a good way, so we talk about what we've seen, what it may mean, and get excited that Lando's back on the scene! Also our favourite 16bit German, Werner the Herzog, comes to Star Wars, in some leaked footage of spaghetti space western The Mandalorian!

We are one sandwich short, this Friday! Of fat? Of a picnic? Or both? Andy tangentially wonders about a She-Hulk for the MCU, whilst Arron contemplates how it would feel to Hulk Out himself, and pulls faces at babies!
