It's down, down to wire, as Charlie and George are back in Bond territory, tackling 1987's The Living Daylights!

They discuss the debut of (the very underrated) Timothy Dalton and taking Bond back to his gritty roots. There are the typical Bond tropes to cover, including memorable action sequences, dastardly henchmen, and a synth-heavy John Barry score, amongst a very convoluted plot!

In this episode, Charlie and George travel to Mexico for some stylish and sexy nineties gun play, it must mean Desperado!

They delve into the films origins, as well as the career of writer/director/editor/sometimes musician Robert Rodriguez. To get there, they need to discuss his ground breaking debut, El Mariachi and the third installment of the trilogy, Once Upon A Time in Mexico.

Expect bad impressions, sweaty chemistry (Banderas- Hayek, less so McGhee Brothers) and film trivia!

Get ready for a deep dive into the classic film that redefined the summer blockbuster - Jaws!

Charlie and George celebrate the movie's 50th anniversary, reminiscing about its enduring impact whilst exploring its challenging production, iconic moments, characters and lasting legacy, from the problematic mechanical shark "Bruce" to John Williams' unforgettable score.

Join them for a light-hearted yet insightful look back at a film that became a shared experience for a generation, making us all afraid to go into the water!

In this episode, Charlie and George revisit Danny Boyle's intense 2002 horror classic, 28 Days Later!

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.

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.

A short special episode remembering the acting legend Gene Hackman, who we sadly lost a few weeks ago.

Charlie and George discuss a variety of their favourite performances, from French Connection, Superman, Get Shorty, Royal Tenenbaums and The Conversation.

Their next podcast episode will be a deep dive (pun intended) on Crimson Tide!

In this month's episode, Charlie and George are off to Oregon, to see if Number 5 really is alive.... That's right, they're revisiting 80's cult classic Short Circuit!
