The Countdown

This week Wayne is dragged kicking and screaming into his first ever Saw movie, so surely he hated every second of it? While Paul, meanwhile, loved the film AND watching Wayne suffer in his jocks?

 

Well, we live in a world where Chris Rock wanted to be in a Saw film and Samuel L Jackson thought he'd hitch his wagon (temporarily) to the same, so anything really can happen ...

Find out if pigs will fly, as The Countdown continues ...

Countdown #320

 

It's the topic "they" said couldn't be done. Find ten quality Australian television shows and try to sell them to a largely unsuspecting and mercifully unaware public. Well, Wayne and Paul are not ones to shy away from a challenge - unless it's about watching a lot of films, in Wayne's case, or horror films, or international films, or anything not really involving a superhero or gross-out humour ... Come to think of it, this wasn't a good direction for the show notes, so let's start again ...

 

Wayne is a bit of a wuss about watching most things, but not about watching late night TV, so learn something new on this week's show as the boys take you on a tour of (mostly classic) Aussie television and try to convince you there are diamonds hidden in that there rough.

 

Do either of the boys resort to an Aussie soap? Can Paul find an Aussie horror show to include on his list? And will Wayne include a show on his list purely because it featured nudity during his teenage years?

 

Learn the answers to all these questions and more as The Countdown continues ...

Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham back working together in a violent action thriller. What could go wrong?

Countdown #319

 

After last week's stomach turning insanity, the boys return to a regular topic they can snipe at each other about: the Top 10 Quentin Tarantino characters

 

QT is one of the guys' favourite filmmakers, but will they come together in terms of which characters they like best? Or will it turn into a Soundboard-infused insult-fest? Well, if you've listened to the show before, the answer is probably pretty obvious, but see if you can wrap your head around this one: One of the guys does NOT have Jules Winfield on his list?!

The guys this week review the entirety of the newest Marvel studios series, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. And because they got in to it way too fast, there are SPOILERS THROUGHOUT this ep.

 

Do Marvel and The Mouse combine for a streaming service based home run? Or is this a let down after the wild ride of their cinematic universe?

Countdown #318

 

This Episode is probably the dumbest idea Wayne has ever had, yet Paul idiotically chose to roll with it and now here you all are.

 

The Top 10 Gross Out Film Scenes is the shortest Countdown Episode of the podcast ever released, and with very good reason. The boys manage to gross each other and themselves out in describing these scenes, to the point where there is the occasional (not put on) dry retch. If that doesn't dissuade you, then this might: This is also the Episode where the guys rank the "best" bodily secretions to eat through to the worst.

 

You have been warned. Do not eat while listening to the Episode and please forgive the guys their folly, so that, hopefully, the Countdown will continue ...

MOORRRRTTAAALLLL KOMBAAAAATT!

 

If you thought a) the boys were going to miss their chance to review this R-rated reboot of the classic arcade game or b) would resist the temptation to yell their version of the iconic mid-90s song ... you're new to the show, so welcome, it's great to have you listening :P

 

Do you have to have played the game to enjoy this film? And is there anything here beyond the gory fights?

It's been a few months since the guys have been able to put together a Bonus Ep for you fine folk, and with a wedding having occurred and then a snap lockdown, as well as some knee surgery, this last month wasn't any better.But rather than leave you wanting, the boys decided to re-issue an interview Paul did with actress Jenette Goldstein (Near Dark, T2) about four years back - mostly tackling her iconic role as Vasquez in James Cameron's classic, Aliens. But they also cover what Jenette has been up to in more recent years, including her line of bras which can be found at Jenette's Bras.

 

The podcast has many more listeners these days, so hopefully this will be new to the vast majority of you, and for those who may have listened all those years ago, have a chuckle at Paul geeking out at interviewing the actor who brought to life of his favourite characters of all time...

Countdown #317

 

This week the boys are back in lockdown and are a bit salty because of this, so decide to take our their frustrations by naming and shaming the biggest Television Character Jerks ever!

 

Who from Seinfeld will get the nom? Who is the biggest jerk on the US version of The Office? And which of the guys will try to shoe-horn in the entire cast of a sitcom?

 

So get on board for all these answers plus the usual banter, laughs and questionable decisions - just with less Soundboard (thanks again, lockdown!) - as The Countdown continues ...

In this review boys are very pleasantly surprised by the new adult animated series from Robert Kirkman, Invincible, now streaming its first season on Amazon Prime. So surprised that they decided to review the first half of the series rather than wait for it to conclude.

 

Paul initially thinks its another standard superhero origin story but is soon won over by the hard left turn the series takes, while Wayne is more open-minded - superhero media being his jam. But who will be left more impressed by the mid-point of the series?
