Paddington. One of the most highly revered and praised films had a third instalment that was by no means bad but fell short of its predecessors. So we were asked by one of our VIPs to fix it. But how do you contend with Paddington and Paddington 2? Do you make a sequel, a prequel or a remake? Well, that's Jack's problem.

The original Secret of NIMH kicked off Don Bluth's independent animation studio, and is fondly remembered by many millennials. But the sequel abandons all its ambition and artistry for a cheap cash-in. Can we craft something that better honours the original's legacy? And which Sequeliser is a hardcore Bluth-hater?

Our final, wild card season continues with our first VIP pick. And it's an incredibly recent release - only a few months old at time of recording. Moana 2 went on to gross more than its predecessor but considering it was a TV series that was rushed and condensed into a feature, it loses something along the way.

Here it is - the start of our wild card final season, and we're aiming to go out with a bang, beginning with a franchise that kicked off with one of the greatest blockbusters of all time and has delivered nothing but disappointing follow-ups since. Can we salvage the core DNA of Jurassic Park six films in, or is it doomed to slow extinction?

While there's no clear hierarchy, there is a sort of understanding or perception that the director is the top job on a film set. So, naturally, it's no surprise that many actors find themselves drawn to the role. But why? Is it to live out a power fantasy? To get an under represented story told? Or is it the chance to direct the greatest talent of all: themselves? This week, we try to answer these questions and more.
