This week Danny & Ben (chock full of pancakes and bursting at the seams with fresh opinions) tackle the behemoth that is Disney and discuss the impact of their cinematic output on the wider filmic landscape. Strap in.

It doesn't get much better than this. We think anyway.

This time Ben and Danny discuss Charlotte Wells' heart-warming and heart-breaking debut feature 'Aftersun', their own holiday experiences as children and fruitlessly attempt to disguise a potent audio issue.

Ben and Danny shake off the cobwebs with a straight-from-the-cinema discussion of Avatar: The Way of Water. In this Episode they discuss the positive and negative impact of CGI and motion capture, Cameron's legacy and Ben professes his love for Titanic.
