Episode 1084 - Rudolph's Shiny New Year

It's almost a new year, so Skyler and Will celebrate by reviewing a less-than-great sequel: Rudolph's Shiny New Year.

Episode 1075 - Star Trek III: The Search for Spock

We all know that the odd-numbered Star Trek films are trash, right? Not so much, actually. While Star Trek III: The Search for Spock might not be the most exciting Trek film ever made, it does introduce Christopher Lloyd as the ruthless Klingon Commander Kruge, lays groundwork for future films, and sees the destruction of the beloved Enterprise. It also begs some hard-to-discuss questions pertaining to the resurrection of Spock, and demonstrates some shameful password etiquette. Please listen in...

The Flickchart Forum sees Ian (a paralegal), Dan (a geriatric), and Chris (a professor) take note of and rank all the films name-checked in the song "Science Fiction / Double Feature" from The Rocky Horror Show. It is a veritable time warp focusing on cult horror and science fiction movies from many years ago. So just how does the discussion turn to Power Rangers, "Steve! From Vancouver," and interminable ape-based films directed by Pet...

Episode 1072 - List and Shout: Fictional Sports

Stepping outside of his usual arena, The Flying Danishman, Christian Honore, goes three rounds with The Fierce Chicken of Bristol, Tom Stavros Hemmings, over sports. Between bobbing and weaving through their favorite fictional sports, pummeling their least favorite ones, and promoting the greatest sports matches, the two podcasting pugilists also lay down some dubious baseball metaphors, confront the darkest secrets of the Star Trek universe, and pound out rubbish Irish accents. Please visit our...

Episode 1065 - The Infinity Gauntlet

Thanks to Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, Thanos has proven himself to be one of cinema's deadliest villains.
