    Ep 65 - Andor S2 and Rogue One revisited
    Jun 8 2025
    Instagram: thefanandthecritic 10 years ago Rogue One was released to theatres and created strongly divided opinions between the Fan and the Critic. More recently, Andor season 2 was released and was received well by both. Perhaps it is time to revisit Rogue One and see if the passage of time yields a more favourable response. Will the Critic walk back his hatred? Will the Fan be less hyped?

    Ep. 63 - Top 10 Movies of 2024
    Jan 20 2025
    Instagram: thefanandthecritic Carson and Paolo talk about their favorite movies from the past year. As usual, Carson's list is full of pretentious indie movies and Paolo's list is full of dumb Hollywood movies. There's something for everyone! (note: I've used this description for the last two year's top 10 episode, and it's always true!)

    Instagram: thefanandthecritic It's end of year, there are tons of great movies finally being released - so let's watch the worst 2 that came out? I barely have enough time to watch the movies I want to watch. I have a lengthy backlog of good movies to watch - why am I doing this to myself?

  • Ep. 62 - Zombie Movies (feat. Ben and Carlos)

    Ep. 62 - Zombie Movies (feat. Ben and Carlos)
    Sep 27 2024
    Instagram: thefanandthecritic We've somehow gone 7 years of doing this podcast without having an episode dedicated to zombie movie, a genre that we all love. And so...it is time...and instead of talking about our favourite zombie movies we talk about two movies that no one has ever heard of: One Cut of the Dead, and Seoul Station. We forget to say it during the episode, but SPOILER WARNING. If you're going to put in the time to listen to this episode we suggest you just go the extra mile and watch One Cut of the Dead before you do.

    Instagram: thefanandthecritic Sure you've probably seen the original Starship Troopers movie, but did you know it also had two terrible sequels? We do now and we've watched them both. We invite Aleks and Dan back onto the show to share their suffering - I mean - to share their thoughts on how well they live up the original.

    Jul 6 2024
    Instagram: thefanandthecritic Last time Ben and Carlos were here we talked about 2 horror movies in the same franchise. This time, we expand our scope by having each person bring their horror movie recommendation. We will like them? Will we hate them? We will decide to stop watching horror movies?

    Ep. 59 - Dune 2 and Rebel Moon 2 (feat. David and John)
    Apr 22 2024
    Instagram: thefanandthecritic We designed this episode so we could compare two part twos - a good one a bad one - little did we expect that Dune Part Two would be absolute garbage and Rebel Moon Part Two would be the most amazing movie of the year!
