The Eon Productions' James Bond canon is far too vast to cover in one episode, so we split them down the middle. In this first part we will address the films of Sean Connery, George Lazenby and Roger Moore.

A juggernaut success for both literature and film, the Harry Potter franchise is a behemoth but the two prequels that have currently been released failed to gain the same traction. As it's the season finale, we felt one film wouldn't be realistic. So strap yourselves in for the longest episode to date as we bring you a complete prequel trilogy to fix Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.

It's time to follow the yellow brick road and...eat an apple until we turn green?! Maybe not...

We're going straight to DVD hell as we attempt to Sequelise Smokin' Aces 2: Assassin's Ball, the truly terrible prequel to the already muddled Smokin' Aces. Is there any way to turn this film from a potato gun into a .357 Magnum, or will this be less of an assassination and more of a mercy killing?

Know what's a massive misstep? A college movie for children that can't cover the majority of the usual college hijinks. And yet the fine people at Pixar thought this was a great idea.

That's right, this week, we're fixing The Thing. No, not that The Thing, that's a masterpiece! Or that The Thing, he's in the Fantastic Four. At the request of a dear patron, Jonathan Firth-Clark, we're discussing and fixing one of the most unnecessary prequels ever made, The Thing (2011).

It turns out not everything is better down where it's wetter, as we take on another Disney straight-to-video offering and try to improve on 2008's The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning. Who is the knock-off Ursula serving as Ariel's governess? How many different types of terrible dad can King Triton be in one film?

Get ready for terrible CGI, mid-00s pop stars and lots of yelling - we're Prequelising X-Men Origins: Wolverine. We dive into the murderer's row of bad talent involved behind the scenes, the woefully misused 'Deadpool' and Fox's incomprehensible timeline in our efforts to fix Hugh Jackman's first solo outing.

We couldn't tackle prequels without taking a dip into the Star Wars universe, but it might not be the entry you were expecting - in this episode, we try to fix Solo: A Star Wars Story.

It's our final inter-season episode ahead of Season Six, but before we can get back to fixing the bad sequels to good movies, we need to examine the oddity that is the Resident Evil franchise. How do these films compare to the games? What happens when you add clones, psychic abilities and amnesia to the zombie genre? And why do these films render Tim unable to form words?

Nearing the end of our interseason period, we have taken the time to speculate and hypothesise more than usual. Rather than a few cast members or a what if sequel, we're reshaping 12, 27 and 43 years of cinema history respectively.

This week's inter-season discussion is another one borne of the coronavirus lockdown. We set ourselves the challenge of recommending a handful of films available on streaming services (correct at time of recording) released before 1980. So many of us relegate fantastic films to the "I'll get around to it eventually" pile and this seems like the perfect time to give them a go. So take a walk back in time with us as we unearth some truly classic films. Jack's Recommendations: NETFLIX: Monty Python...
