The new Pixar pic brings the joys of death, existential dread and meaninglessness to children! Johnny has waited to watch this for the podcast, but Andrew has taken a trip through the soul already, what will be the end result, and will anything matter after all of this? Happy 2021!
216 - MONSTERS VS ALIENS
It’s time to forget the world and its many strange moments these last months, indulging in a Kiefer Sutherland/Reese Witherspoon/Rainn Wilson animated movie that Johnny has wanted to see for a long time. Yes it’s a very slight piece of Dreamworks Animation, but stay for the Invisible Man tangent, the examination of spin-offs and casting, and a little touch of monster-naming-and-power-having fun that only two very broken brains could let go on for so long.
194 - ARTEMIS FOWL
It’s hard to find something new in this weird dead world, but Disney+ bring a film intended for August 2019 straight to streaming a year later, and Andrew and Johnny see it as reason enough to give it a go. Stay for Johnny’s Irish roots which makes Andrew’s Irish accent even MORE offensive, in these trying times.
183 - RANGO
We’re all isolated across the globe, but for this week it’s a trip to the desolate Mojave, as Gore Verbinski’s Oscar-winning western animated adventure comes into view. Talking family movies, quarantine life and the career of the Pirates Of The Caribbean director, maybe some sanity will be found here.
MINI-SERIES - FAST FRIDAYS - A PROLOGUE
Andrew announces a new mini-series in the Corona-infested world of action, family and turning enemies into friends.
Will he discover how the virus spread? What happened to John Cena? Why drop almost every letter in the titles for the 9th (or 10th) movie?
Begun, the adventure has.
151 - BUGSY MALONE
What if a kid-starring musical about gangsters starring Dexter Fletcher and MAGA’s own Scott Baio? Johnny brings his childhood to the spotlight and Andrew ponders how chickens can grow old but children cannot.
