In Netflix latest shameless quest for Oscar nominations, we review Mank! Shot in black and white, about screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz and his development of the screenplay for Citizen Kane (So you KNOW the Academy would be creamin' their jeans). Directed by the great David Fincher based on a screenplay by his late father Jack Fincher.

Well, this one was a doozy...

Guess who's turn it was to pick this week's movie? 

This is a classic example of the kind of random horror you'd find on the shelf of an xtra-vision in the 90s. It's about an immigrant in search of the American dream who, after being forced to take a room in a boarding house, finds herself in a nightmare she can't escape. 

We chat about what we liked, what we didn't, the ludicrous ending, and horror in general. We also chat about the state of the world, Terry gives his thoughts on the changes at Man United, and definitely does NOT work for now tv. Enjoy!

We're back discussing the newest Spike Lee joint!! As part of Netflix's big Oscar push, clocking in at a whopping 2 hours 40 minutes!! I know right? We actually dare I say have a great chat about this one. 

We talk about the phenominal performances of Delroy Lindo (insane he wasn't nominated for best actor), and of course the late great Chadwick Boseman. We chat about the backdrop, the history, and appreciate all the Marvin Gaye throughout the movie!

This movie is FUCKING long, but definitely worth a watch if you can get past it (and yes this is Andy typing this). 

Skip to 29.18 for the review (SPOILERS). Enjoy!!

We're back baby with a new series of Whats So Great About, this time we're asking whats so great about Netflix, first on the cards is ..... In the Tall Grass!

This is an Andy pick, as it looked like a good interesting "mess with your mind" type horrors, based on a Stephen King novella, about a bunch of people stuck in tall grass, they want to escape but reality and time keep changing!! Or something like that. 

We chat about the budget, bit of backstory, and then dive into the madness! SPOILERS GALORE.

We also catch up after two weeks off, Terry's been sick as a dawg and Andy finally passes his driving test :)
