Cinema is dead! Even the great David Fincher must bow down to the Subscription era. Nick discusses the potentially dangerous situation facing cinemas given we are now all couch potatoes.
This is then followed by talking about a movie watched by this podcaster from his couch.
The Killer is Fincher’s first film in years, but does it stack up to his already stacked catalogue? Is Fassbender’s face worth watching for 2 hours? Is a movie under 2 hours now as rare as a cinema release? Nick breaks this all down once again 3 months after everyone else has already talked about it.

A quick lookback on the life and work of Mathew Perry after his tragic recent passing.
And then, what is there to say, it’s Spiderman (or men)!
Settle in as Nick tackles one of the most anticipated movies of the last decade. We’re talking cameo’s, we’re talking villains, we’re talking repressed childhood memories. Did the movie live up to all the hype? Or did it crash and burn like Osborn’s glider…oopsies SPOILERS!
All that and more in this extended, completely spoiler filled review two years after everyone else already talked about it.

The people have spoken, and a studio has listened! We wanted a Predator movie with a simplified plot, in the jungle, with Arnie, no cities or Aliens. Well, Schwarzenegger may have hung up the machete, but a Comanche tribe takes over and delivers with a love letter to the original while also standing on its own two feet.
Nick tackles the ins and outs of why this Predator movie surpasses its fellow sequels (don’t put it in a city, duh) and the power of great story telling and enthralling action scenes. Of course, the bigger discussions are why there was no cinema release, where a next instalment might go, and Star Wars references?

Grief, depression, broken families, death, it’s all positive vibes as Nick reviews a 7-hour murder mystery.
Kate Winslet shines in an Emmy winning performance with a supporting cast threatening to steal the show. The bigger issues though are how we process grief, having more red herrings than billed cast members, and whether drawing existential meaning from a couple of nice camera shots qualifies as insightful podcasting, or just pretentious rubbish?

It’s the showdown some people might be waiting for! Two Hollywood Titans take to the screen in a battle of wits, biceps, and manicured moustaches. Only one problem, they forgot to put them on the screen at the same time.
This podcast edition has Nick breaking down the Russo Brothers’ latest film full of style, fun action, and zero-character development (the classic trio). And while it may just be a Netflix action film, that obviously translates to a discussion about the mindset of Hollywood in a franchise driven market. Right?

Back with a bang! After a long hiatus, Nick returns much like the Mighty Thor himself - a new setup, a new mantra, and a more relaxed approach duuude. Will a new streamlined approach save this service from mediocrity and degradation? Who knows, but it's free content so best not to pull that thread.
This podcast delves into another polarising marvel movie (shocking) with a review that tackles the very good, and very goofy elements of Taika Waititi’s second run at the God of Sparkles. Discussions focus on the joke count, Christian Bale’s magnificence, and what may be the most ridiculous moment in Marvel history to date. But no one had to save Martha, promise.

In contrast to the usual order of play, Nick reviews a movie he likes. But first, the latest rendition of movie news explores Marvel’s ‘The Eternals’ trailer and why it makes no sense, new movies which aren’t that new since they were supposed to come out a year ago, and trailers for new movies that are actually new, or at least newer than the older new movies.
The main event involves a look at what has become a cult classic, despite only being 3 years old. A Quiet Place broke Hollywood by earning almost 20 times what it cost to make. However, that won’t stop a podcast currently earning -20 times its cost from forming opinions about it. The big discussion points this week focus on how a first-time director who had never watched a horror film made the best horror film of the decade, the medical complications of shoving a nail through your foot, and something about fruit and a stun gun.

Proper order is restored with some classically self-indulgent, overly excessive movie analysis. But first, the easing of covid restrictions around the globe has brought a new stream of trailers as studios see dollar signs. Oh, and Gal Gadot said some stuff.
The main event has Nick settle into the warm, safe embrace of Disney with a review of their latest (premium access) creation. For a change, there will be chat about some great action scenes and poor dialogue because that doesn’t get explored enough in this show. Other discussions include the logistics of having 15 supporting characters, Pencak silat fighting styles, and whether an animated version of Home Alone’s very own Kevin McAllister works.

Put on your Iron Man helmet, strap on your Hulk hands and just fanboy your heart out for the final episode of Marvel’s latest mini-series. Or, if you’re like a certain poor uni student, just punch the air occasionally as Sam embraces his new role as Captain frickin America and Bucky opens a truck door.
For the final time, as per tradition, the big questions are brought up and left unanswered which includes a concern for Sam’s lack of proper head protection in the workplace, and do you think he wrote that speech down beforehand? And Isaiah did not make me cry! I’ve just got something in my eye, leave me alone! I’m not crying, you’re crying!
Oh, and how GOOD was that Mr Nakashima scene. Wasn’t that just the best 2.7 second character arc you’ve ever seen…

With only one episode to go, the show tugs away at the heartstrings with some sneakily touching moments. Meanwhile, Sam and Bucky use up their annual leave with some beers and real talk in the woods.
This of course sparks some big, deep questions such as: When did Discount Steve get so good at welding? Why do Karli’s men prefer murder over your basic criminal espionage? And why is it so hard to make fun of this well-written, emotionally charged episode?!
