Well New Year, new game but before we do we have to look back on the biggest earners of 2023 and do a shout out to the top ten player of the FFL from the One and Done game and the 2023 season.

We also cover some BIG changes to the way the scores are done this year. Mainly around how we score cameos and animation but we detail the whole thing out for you here.

Oh and Legion, our rogue AI seem to have developed a curious attraction to Patrick Dempsey. Yeah we don't know either.

Music as always by the ever excellent Two Steps from Hell and Hidden Citizens.

The boys are back and they are a little distracted.

After clarifying a few rules for the game for players and explaining that Legion, their benevolent AI is just here to help they get totally sideline by biscuits and unavailable Joel Kinneman films.

They manage to hold it together for *just* long enough to cover Wonka and the other film left for us in December before veering off widely again about the French and Eva Green.

We'd like to say normal service will be resumed next episode when they cover the stats but we both know that's unlikely..

The boys are back for a bit of a bumper episode. It's been a while so they're out of practice with keeping the tangents to a minimum.

Mr Birch has been to see The Marvels and has some views on it. The boys also look at some of the sequels slated for next year, some good, most bad.

Mr Smith has brought the biscuits to the recording and they are amazing. He's also been talking to Legion, our rogue AI and persuaded it to add in some features.

Finally the boys look at some of the cancelled films this year. WB have shelved three and Smith is not happy about it at all...

Music by Hidden Citizens and Two Steps from Hell.

Bad Film Club is back and Mr Smith is suffering for it. "Blackbird", the Michael Flately vanity project is given a rewatch from hime with the drinking rules. It's still everything we need it to be. Prepare for a deep dive and a shocking reveal of the next Bad Film...

The boys also look at the reduced roster of releases for the rest of the year and basically tell you how to win the Holiday Season.

Music by Hidden Citizens and Two steps from Hell. And the dubstep news song that inspires a wandering tangent..

The boys are back after an extended break travelling and collecting new biscuits and removing their Twitter (sorry, "X" accounts)

They cover Barbieheimer and Mr Birch catches up on some of the films he missed in 2023 uncovering a future Bad Film Club Classic in the process.

Smith also covers the newest season and looks ahead to some films coming out for the rest of the year.

There's a Liam Neeson action film in there you know...

Interstitial music by Two Steps from Hell and the Intro and Outro music by Hidden Citizens.

After it all went off the rails at the end of the last episode you join the Misters as Birch throws Smith into the Time Bunker, raises the shields and tries to put right what once went wrong.

The boys once again have to repair the movie casting timeline but this time we're pretty sure it's not their fault! This time we look at some more casting What Ifs and decide if we want to replace a very well know role with someone else. Han Solo? Patrick Bateman? Some complicated Harry Potter name? TWILIGHT??! Is no-one is safe from the temporal meddling? Smith makes some hards choices and a few, well , let's be honest, a few really easy ones too...

Music by Hidden Citizens with incidental music featuring Two Steps from Hell.

Mr Smith and Mr Birch are back and they've seen some films. First up we take a look at the current One and Done leaderboards and assess the strategies of the players.

Next up they look at Spider-Man, then Birch talks about The Flash which has some issues... Finally, and you may need to take a seat for this, they talk about No Hard Feeling aka Jennifer Lawrence Sex Comedy. It's not good, it's actually quite bad. *And* it breaks the "Half your age plus seven" rule. That's a thing right? Birch didn't just make that up?

After that things go very off the rails... to be continued....

Yeah, we fuffled up. You may have had a "Cocaine Bear" flashback just then but now we present the actual episode we recorded on Sunday..

So.. Mr B has seen Fast X, Mr S tries to explain a Neil Breen film and the boys look at films to come.

You know all this, you read this yesterday then got an over-excited Mr B intro from, like, 3 months ago.

OK, here we go. Again.

Mr Birch has been to see Fast X and has some thoughts. Mild spoilers ahead but he is good enough to give you some warning.

Mr Smith has seen a Neil Breen film and has some thoughts... Listening to him try to explain the plot is a magical experience.

Plus the boys look at a few films coming out for the rest of 2023 and try to offer some advice on who you would pick until Mr Birch utters the sentence "Jennifer Lawrence Sex Comedy" which frankly derails the whole thing.

Music by Hidden Citizens with incidental music featuring Two Steps from Hell and interstitials by a small child (kind of..).

This high energy episode (after he says it) looks at Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the boys discuss how awesome Keanu Reeves is both generally and in John Wick. They also looks at some upcoming films and lay out a potential strategy to get lots of points.

And they clarify who actually isn't directing Fast X and how it has to end before someone puts Ludacris on Mars.

We talk onions (yes really) and Smith commits a serious faux pas...

Music by Hidden Citizens with incidental music featuring Two Steps from Hell and interstitials by a small child, guess the film. Smith got it on the third one this week.
