  • EP#157: Remembering Val Kilmer
    Apr 20 2025

    In this episode, once again its time to pay tribute to another legend. Following the recent passing of Val Kilmer, George and Charlie take a moment to look back on their favourite films of an actor taken too soon.

    We will be covering Kilmer's uncanny performance as Jim Morrison in The Doors in our next patreon episode.

  • EP#156-Crimson Tide 1995
    Apr 4 2025

    In this episode, to honour the late, great Gene Hackman, Charlie and George are taking a deep dive on Crimson Tide!

    There's a lot to discuss, it's a Tony Scott film (so expect slick, sweaty visuals), two of the greatest actors squaring off in a confined space and a booming Hans Zimmer soundtrack, paving the formula for future Simpson/Bruckheimer productions.

    As usual, there's some juicy behind-the-scenes insight and some interesting alternative casting in Coulda Woulda Shoulda.
