Episode description

This week we review Solo: A Star Wars Story, the film that teaches you everything you need to know about the sexy Star Wars rogue Han Solo - where he got his name, how he met Chewbacca, who gave him that jacket, how he has his eggs, everything. Think of a question about Han Solo. This film answers it. If it's not in the film, it can't be a possible answer to a question about Han Solo. Needless to say it is a masterpiece.


Plus, Danny reviews a pair of acclaimed smaller films that teach you nothing about Han Solo (ie they are obviously garbage), the Argentine period piece Zama and the ravishing Afghanistan-set animation The Breadwinner. We also discuss the overplayed Jurassic World trailer, the fanciest-possible cinema experience for watching Sherlock Gnomes, and some not very exciting (and by now quite out of date) news. Did you know they're making a Boba Fett film?
