It’s carnage this week. Complete lawless misrule. What could have caused this? Was it the orange skies? The smooth jazz playing in the background? The release of a new Michael Fassbender film? It’s the latter, obviously, as Film of the Week “The Snowman” gets Ryan, Graham, Aidan, and new recruit […]

4 Panel 113 – Judge Death Does Bollywood
It’s time for your weekly dose of comics and manga with 4-Panel! Hidden in the mist of tangents and nonsense are the trailer for The New Mutants, Cable’s existence as a movie character (but nobody is committed to saying much else), Marvel’s plan for their very own brilliantly-monikered convention, and […]
S15E03 – Nazgûl Tourism Board
The grand-pappy of The Geek Show Podcast Network returns for another blast of news and geeky conversation. This week we take a look at the title for the new Han Solo film, A member of Blink 182’s quest for space aliens, police hover-bikes, and a brand new Stranger Things game. […]
Cinema Eclectica 132 – Summoning Keanu For The Ultimate Man Date
In summary then, this week’s show is a land of contrasts. Off the Shelf feature Ryan facing the horror of mental illness in the Ben Wheatley-produced “The Ghoul”, Rob surviving the horror of ‘80s hair (and, to a lesser extent, nuclear war), in Arrow’s reissue of “Miracle Mile”, and Graham […]

Literary Loitering 75 – Surfer Jesus and the Hang Ten Commandments
While French philosopher Vincent Cespedes claims that his statement that Tintin is a girl was nothing more than fake news, we also discover that Roald Dahl’s character Charlie Bucket was originally going to be black, and that Winnie the Pooh in A. A. Milne’s books was modelled on another teddy […]
4-Panel 112 – Being Akira Malkovich
It’s time for more comic-books with 4-Panel, and this week we’re talking about bad Marvel partnerships, Taika Waititi’s film plans for Akira, art theft and the return of a British superhero team. We also continue our new scoring system and our ongoing descent into Nightwing’s butt-gate (pun very much intended). […]
Keyframe 92 – Netflix’s Anime Big Boy Pants
As the Summer season winds down, we take a look at the good, the bad, the mediocre, the just plain wrong, the unexpected and the anger-inducing anime of the last three months. Our featured animated movie and cartoon are Michaël Dudok de Wit’s The Red Turtle and Netflix’s Neo Yokio. […]
4-Panel 111 – Boy Meets Venom
This week on 4-Panel we talk about the biggest Iron Man story ever … at least according to Brian Michael Bendis. There are lots of terrible movie references – including one that is incorrect and from the movie guy no less (he should be ashamed). Elsewhere we talk about The […]
Keyframe 91 – Godzilla’s Summer Fair Bake Sale
To celebrate the release of the first in a trilogy of anime movies, Godzilla is finally getting its own festival! Aside from that we also take a look at the trailers for Aardman’s Early Man and Netflix’s Neo Yokio. Our featured anime are Belladonna of Sadness and Kiniro Mosaic (Kinmoza!). […]
