Excruciating is the only was to describe this weeks choice, which leaves us confused and disappointed. Also The Electrical Life of Louis Wain, The Bear on Disney+ and Producer Ben announces our exciting new project, Retro Reels, with an upcoming showing of 1987 classic The Lost Boys.

That's what I want to see: a nice big smile! This week's film takes us back to horror and a mostly enjoyable debut. We also review a week of TV that includes Rings of Power, Andor (not to be confused with Endor, Producer Ben!) and a revisit of the Bros documentary.

Jables has a bit of a rant about this week's highly anticipated thriller, which sadly proves our theory that a film with potential can often be more disappointing than a film that's just rubbish. At least Our Kid has season 4 of Ghosts to be happy about. 

A short bank holiday episode this week, our streaming choice finds us discussing the merits of film by algorithm and how well loafers without socks can define a character.

Back to the Majestic for a wacky murder mystery and Jables scars Our Kid for life with the image of Columbo in his underpants. At least Producer Ben's news segment on the state of the film industry (threatened for weeks and finally here!) brings us back to reality, along with trailers for Amsterdam and Oppenheimer and this week's Question for Jables on his favourite film nemesis.

We're thrilled to be at The Light cinema this week for the director's cut of our favourite Star Trek Movie. Plus Three Thousand Years of Longing, a first look at the trailer for Don't Worry Darling and our Questions for Jables segment gets off to a good start: if you could bring back a cancelled series or franchise, which would it be?

Not even Idris Elba can win over the whole team in the most recent killer beast flick. At least we've got a good idea for a Day Shift sequel (just add Ice-T - you heard it here first!). Plus thoughts on the Wakanda Forever teaser and a plea for input to our new Questions for Jables segment.

Part action horror, part buddy comedy, this week's streaming choice charms us with its likeable cast, good humour and fun take on vampire lore. Plus our thoughts on She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, a revisit of Elvis and Jables realises that dance fighting really isn't for him when he watches West Side Story.

We say yep to Nope this week, plus Jables is (mostly) pleasantly surprised by Predator prequel Prey.

We're on the Bullet Train with a mysterious passenger this week as we finally get to watch and discuss Netflix' The Sandman.
