In this weeks episode of We Neeed To Talk About Movies Podcast, the UK's top film discussion podcast hosted by your unruly idiots Trev and Nath, its Nath's choice - and he has chosen the 1998 debut animation feature from Dreamworks Animation - Antz.

This dark comedy action movie was only the second ever computer generated feature film to be released and had a massive ine up of stars including Woody Allen as the neurotic worker ant, Z, Sylvester Stallone, Sharone Stone, Christopher Walken, Jennifer Lopez, Gene Hackman and Dan Aykroyd.

But does it stand up with nearly 25 years past since its release? The boys discuss!

This week its time for another obscure or lesser known film - and we thought we would change the pace a little and instead of going for a completely random or even awful movie like we have in the past, we felt that this lesser known gem of a movie would be ideal viewing.

The hilarious and cringeworthy Nuts In May (1976) first screened on the BBC in the 70's as a part of their play for the day series and follows anally retentive control freak Keith Pratt (Sloman) and his timid wife Candice-Marie (Steadman) as they take a relaxing camping holiday in Dorset. But soon Keith's sanity is put to teh test by his fellow campers.

One of the early films from British filmmaker Mike Leigh, director of Secrets and Lies, Happy Go Lucky and Vera Drake, this has always stood out as a favourite in our household.

Its time for another film discussion, and this weeks episode of We Need To Talk About Movies Podcast we need to talk about Ari Asters fairy-tale folk horror Midsommar (2019), which is Trev's choice and one he considers to be one of the best horror films released in recent years but will Nath be as comfortable watching it?

After the tragic death of her family, tormented Dani (Florence Pugh) tags along with her spineless boyfriend Christian (Jack Reynor) and his friends Mark (Will Poulter), Josh (William Jackson-Harper) and Pelle (Villherm Blomgren) as they travel to Sweden for a ritualistic festival where it soon becomes clear that all is not what it seems.

This visual treat of a movie is a disturbing yet unconventional tale, unlike most horrors it is shot in glaring sunlight and amongst beautiful vibrant landscapes, likening it to the 1973 classic folk horror 'The Wicker Man'.

Listener Alan Day chooses todays film for dicussion, and it happens to be one that is very close to Trev's heart too, the amazing Cult Comedy Musical The Blues Brothers - starring John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd and directed by John Landis of American Werewolf in London and Trading Places fame. 

Lowlife blues coniseurs Jake and elwood Blues are on a mission from God as they attempt to raise the funds to save their orphanage by reuniting their estranged band and putting on the show to end all shows. 

An awesome ride of slapstick comedy, huge car chases and faultless blues and soul soundtrack by some of the biggest names in the genre - James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker and more.

This week its time to watch another odd film, which funnily enough falls into the worst category as well. Its the 2018 action comedy thriller Velocipastor - you heard it right, that was Velocipastor. 

When Father Doug witnesses the death of his parents he travels to China to find his faith again, but gets more than he bargains for when he is infected by a superpower that enables him to turn into a dinosaur. With the help of a prostitute named Carol he uses his powers to fight villains and ninjas.

You really do have to see it to believe it... actually... no... you don't... you really, really don't!
