This week we’re being told by Mr Darcy to take Tomin Lannister on a longer walk than the Hobbits in Lord of the Rings, with longer shots than they used in Goodfellas to have a chat to Smaug, all while discussing Sam Mendes’ Golden Globe winning war drama ‘1917’.

1917 is a 2019 epic war film directed, co-written and produced by Sam Mendes. The film stars George MacKay, Dean-Charles Chapman, Mark Strong, Andrew Scott, Richard Madden, Claire Duburcq, Colin Firth, and Benedict Cumberbatch.

This week we’re driving through the city, killing some pimps and dating at the porno theater, all while watching Scorsese’s 1976 classic ‘Taxi Driver’, as demanded by a patron.

Set in a decaying and morally bankrupt New York City following the Vietnam War, the film tells the story of a lonely taxi driver, who descends into insanity as he plots to assassinate both the presidential candidate (Harris) for whom the woman he is infatuated with (Shepherd) works, and the pimp (Keitel) of an underage prostitute (Foster) he befriends.

Happy New Year! This week Billy and Topher are sharing their top 5 films of the year. Will they have any cross over? Will they disagree on any? Will Terminator: Dark Fate make the cut?

Then as a special extra, as is tradition on the show, we list our top 5 films from 10 years ago, inspired by the idea that you need to let films sit with you for at least that long before being able to effectively rank them.
