Nov 14, 2022•2 hr 51 min•Transcript available on Metacast 2003 was very much like today in the sense that everybody was looking to adapt comic book properties into a huge movie franchise. So in continuing our Alan Moore-athon we're taking a look at The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, or LXG if you would. In Sean Connery's final live action role before retirement he leads a team of 19th Century super people as Alan Quartermaine. We've never liked it but maybe that's wrong. Doubtful though. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review! SUBSCR...
Nov 10, 2022•30 min•Transcript available on Metacast I disagree it is a big week for news (if you agree disregard). We get into the renewal of The Sandman plus the cancellation of Stargirl, a new trailer for Avatar 2: The Way Of Water, more Marvel casting, Warner Bros brand new focus on franchises plus the movie Don't Worry Darling.

Nov 07, 2022•2 hr 34 min•Transcript available on Metacast There is a long history of Alan Moore movie adaptation that he absolutely hates. So we're going back to revisit all those we haven't visited yet, starting with From Hell from 2001. Starring Johnny Depp, Heather Graham and Ian Holm it tells a fictionalized tale of notorious serial killer Jack The Ripper. And it's pretty boring. That's our hot take.

Oct 31, 2022•2 hr 57 min•Transcript available on Metacast Hello. It's the spookiest time of the year and I'm not just talking about tax time. And to celebrate this we're revisiting a 1992 Francis Ford Coppola classic, Bram Stoker's Dracula. With screen rattling performances from Gary Oldman, Anthony Hopkins, Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves it is somehow both a cult classic and a box office hit. And it's also very horny.

Oct 24, 2022•2 hr 51 min•Transcript available on Metacast Before he was a big Egyptian morally ambiguous magical warrior man in Black Adam, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnsons was a big Egyptian morally ambiguous magical warrior man in The Scorpion King. After his live action movie debut and then being a big CGI scorpion person in The Mummy Returns Mathayus (which is his name?) of Akkad is back in a tale of epic-ish proportions! A tale so epic it got a series of it's own spin-off movies which we will never review. But thanks for listening this one. SUBSCRIBE HE...

Oct 17, 2022•1 hr 16 min•Transcript available on Metacast Recently the MCU saw the first live action appearance of Man-Thing in the Halloween special Werewolf By Night. Sorry I just forgot right now, there was a Marvel adaptation of Man-Thing that dates back to 2005 produced by Avi Arad who's producing credits include Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, X-Men, Hulk, Blade and even Iron Man. Filmed entirely in Australian with a next to nothing budget it certainly is an odd duck of a film that was quickly swept under the rug. I will never forget though. And now ...

Oct 10, 2022•2 hr 31 min•Transcript available on Metacast The Incredible Hulk marks the second entry in the MCU with also the lowest box office return. Bringing on Edward Norton for his brief stint as Bruce Banner this incarnation is leaner, meaner, green...greyer and mostly forgotten despite some of it's elements eventually bleeding over into the wider universe. All in all this can safely be categorised as a movie we've reviewed on Caravan Of Garbage. SUBSCRIBE HERE ►► http://goo.gl/pQ39jN Video Edition ►https://youtu.be/oDTdRfEFC7w Help support the s...
Oct 06, 2022•30 min•Transcript available on Metacast It's an incredible time to be both Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds. Because they're rich and handsome and famous. But also because it's been revealed that Hugh Jackman will be returning to the role of Wolverine in Deadpool 3 set somewhat within the MCU. We also talk news of more Planet of the Apes, everyone is getting deepfakes, Harrison Ford joins the Thunderbolts potentially plus we get into actors who were like "I WILL NEVER PLAY THIS CHARACTER AGAIN" but then they're like, yeah alright gimme ...
Oct 03, 2022•2 hr 5 min•Transcript available on Metacast In 2003 Ang Lee made a valiant attempt at bringing the Hulk to life like we'd never seen before. With the casting of Eric Bana and groundbreaking CGI technology the Hulk was both bigger and greener than ever before. And at the end of the day it's pretty weird but also good but also boring but also interesting. Probably other things also. Thanks for listening to our Caravan Of Garbage review!

Sep 26, 2022•1 hr 28 min•Transcript available on Metacast All journeys must come to an end. Some with a whimper. Some with a bang. Some do the cinematic equivalent of dragging the audience through broken glass in the third entry of a trilogy for two hours and twenty four minutes.

Sep 19, 2022•2 hr 55 min•Transcript available on Metacast Nobody was happier than us when we heard the second Hobbit book was being made into a movie. JOKES. The result of splitting JRR Tolkien's work into three movies lead us here to The Desolation Of Smaug, the middle and probably best chapter in the series.

Sep 12, 2022•2 hr 48 min•Transcript available on Metacast Caravan Of Garbage has returned to look at what is probably considered the second most disappointing prequel trilogy of all time. Director of The Lord of the Rings Peter Jackson reluctantly returns to the directors chair for 2013's An Unexpected Journey, the first very long entry in an adaptation of a very short book.

Sep 05, 2022•2 hr 31 min•Transcript available on Metacast One of my favorite things to record is the Big Sandwich monthly series Time Crapsule. This is where we take a look at a year in pop culture and look at all the bizarre, wonderful and often terrible events that took place and determine which of these things remain relevant to this day. Then at the end we play Tina Turner's The Nut Bush. It's something we started doing in an earlier episode but I've honestly forgotten why. Anyways thanks for listening and see you on Septermber 5th!
