Assassin's Creed Origins, Wolfenstein 2 and Super Mario Odyssey – Jim's played the biggest games of 2017's Christmas rush and he talks about them on this podcast for some reason. As it's Halloween we talk about what makes a great horror film, which allows Burns to gush about The Shining. Also everyone has an argument about Spaced. Dave questions his career choices.
Jim's back, and he's seen Blade Runner 2049, so we talked about that for a bit before quizzing Dave about life on a film set, the importance of actor chemistry, and what exactly Ron Howard would have had to do when he took over directing the Han Solo movie.
Jim's off on a wee adventure so Burns (and Dave) take us on a tour of favourite movie scores, Red Dead 2, and the SNES mini. There's also some chat about Tom Cruise. Obviously.
Jim and Dave compare 2017's IT with the 1990 miniseries, Jim discusses Seth MacFarlane's Star Trek love letter The Orville, and Burns fondly recalls the time we tried to leave Europe (via an airport) but cocked it up.
