303 - FRACTURE

February 26, 2025

I Recorded My Podcast… Prove It!

Johnny is a licensed driver and has taken to spending most of a week in the cinema, going Movie Mad. He brings with him thoughts on Captain America: Brave New World, The Monkey, Companion, Heart Eyes, A Complete Unknown, Flight Risk and Grand Theft Hamlet. All Andrew has to counter this is aunty Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy, and that really cannot compete.

But Ryan Gosling, Anthony Hopkins and some nostalgia for early 00s middle-of-the-road adult-contemporary cinema takes hold, will Andrew recall his love for serious law drama? Will Johnny enjoy the non-courtroom-drama parts of this thriller? What contraptions is Anthony Hopkins drawing during the trial anyway? Is he Jigsaw? Prove it.

264 - ROAR

December 22, 2021

Ok, so, there was a bit of a mistake, this was meant to be us watching Julia Ducournau’s Raw in the build-up to us covering Titane next year, but it seems we got the wrong disk in so here’s us watching a movie about living with lions and tigers and hairy men, oh my! Andrew discusses seeing this film in a packed cinema, and Johnny rates animals based on how he’d most be comfortable living with them.

260 - ROBIN HOOD 2018

November 24, 2021

We’re ending Robin Hood Month with the Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx, Ben Mendelsohn action adventure with Tim Minchin, which Johnny is most excited about, but will the Bono’s Daughter-starring film win the hearts of the podcasters, or is it more rich-robbing than poor-giving?

256 - WRINKLES THE CLOWN

October 27, 2021

Halloween Kills Ends and we’ve saved the scariest for last, a documentary on creepypasta, the legacy of virality, child trauma, a rise in clown hauntings just before the world fell apart, and the serious work that goes into being a funny, kind, hopeful clown performing artist. We bring positivity and hope into a world feeling low and broken, and wave adieu to scary clown halloween.

252 - DAY WATCH

August 18, 2021

Johnny is forced back into the fantasy lore of Russian trilogy-turned-two-film-franchise Nochnoy Dozor, and he’s being at his best behaviour, but will he last the 2 hour follow-up? Andrew discusses the death of cinema, at least as he waves goodbye to a Cineworld Unlimited card, and the Comic Con hunt for a DVD of Day Watch in 2006.

240 - LA CONFIDENTIAL - WITH GEORGE GRIMWOOD

May 26, 2021

What’s new with the hit honchos of Hollywood? They’re returning from a long break to watch a movie full of movie stars, hot gossip, criminals, coppers and sins in the city of angels. Joining their escapades is Podnose owner George Grimwood, bringing his expertise of the LA architecture and the city’s legacy.

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

BONUS - MORTAL KOMBAT 2021 KOMMENTARY

May 5, 2021

It’s Andrew’s birthday and naturally it’s time to test your might with a bunch of fun games, trivia and Josh Lawson talk as he and Johnny sit through the latest video game adaptation.

Commentary begins 5 seconds into the film and at the timecode 00:13:40

227 - THE BRAVE ONE

February 10, 2021

A week off and refreshed, it’s time to take a look at Jodie Foster’s Death Wish drama, with discussions on Jared Leto and Rami Malek in The Little Things, what your vigilante name would be and Foster’s Erica Bain and her best friend Gunny. This is a silly silly episode with some strong language.

210 - REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA

October 7, 2020

It’s the cross pollination of musical month and Shocktober, as horror director Darren Lynn Bousman delves deep into the dingy world of operatic storytelling, and gets a pre-I’ll Kill Harvey Weinstein Paul Sorvino to perform, whilst Paris Hilton loses face and Anthony Head remains vastly underpaid for his services to cinema. Also, Andrew laments horror cinema and Johnny works through furloughed worker schemes, because that’s where we are mentally now!

198 - BON COP, BAD COP

July 15, 2020

Andrew takes control of the show back once more with a Canadian buddy cop picture where cultures clash like teams on the hockey rink. Will J like his new nickname? Will Andrew enjoy a film for once? Will the recording of the episode be marred by the passing of Carl Reiner the hour before recording? Yes, in that case, yes it bloody will.

189 - BRIMSTONE

May 13, 2020

Johnny loves this 150 minute frontier horror, and insists Andrew saddle up for a ride into hell and back, promising that Retribution Is Coming. Andrew, meanwhile, breaks down and contemplates what a serial killer horse could get away with back in olden times. Yep. That’s how the lockdown’s going, folks.

186 - GOTTI

April 22, 2020

Oh gotti, protect us. Andrew insists on watching a film directed by E from Entourage, and brings Johnny down with him. John Travolta plays a mob boss, but the real crime is against cinema, as the duo work out if films are bad or the isolation is just driving insanity further and further into our skulls.

178 - SMOKIN' ACES

February 26, 2020

Ryan Rodney Reynolds and the fridge seller-turned stand-up Jeremy “Plugs” Piven join on Joe Carnahan’s contract killer It’s A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, the final episode in 18-rated month. Andrew reminisces about college, Johnny satisfies himself with his music collection.

164 - BURN AFTER READING

November 20, 2019

Someone is always listening, watching, waiting, as CoeNovember continues with an underrated comedy that Andrew adores, and Johnny is about to witness for the first time round. Will they become spies too? Or will a swing in the sex chair finish them off?

153 - MIAMI VICE

September 4, 2019

Taking it to the limit one more time, Andrew opens a series on TV-to-Film adaptations with a personal favourite, and hypes Johnny up. Will Johnny become a fiend for Mojitos or will he go so undercover he won’t know which way is up?

140 - SNOWPIERCER

June 5, 2019

Christopher Lloyd comes to the studio to talk his favourite film, the 2013 Snowpiercer, released finally in the UK in 2019. The joys of Tilda Swinton, working out untranslated scenes for years and living on a train are the primary focuses of the day.

138 - DEJA VU

May 22, 2019

It feels like we’ve watched Tony Scott films a few times of late, but Johnny can’t get beyond the basic joke of Deja Vu, until the film blows his fragile mind.

137 - DOMINO

May 15, 2019

Heads you live, Tails you watch Keira Knightley as a bounty hunter in a film that really just kinda plays out in front of your eyes. Tony Scott, man.

136 - ENEMY OF THE STATE

May 8, 2019

Keep tracking the target as Andrew and Johnny hunt for Tony Scott’s paranoia thriller, and another Will Smith turn that sparks the magic of the genie. We’re tied to Aladdin and boy is it hard to find Will Smith films Johnny hasn’t seen.

BONUS - STAR WARS: EPISODE VIII - THE LAST JEDI

May 4, 2019

Andrew didn’t see The Last Jedi when it came to the cinemas in December 2017, but he did hear and read crazy things about the film over the year afterwards. So much so that he wrote what he assumed might be the script to the film based on such hearsay. Now Johnny is putting Andrew’s predictions against the movie for Star Wars day, and you can too!
