This week we leap with Ryan Gosling to 2016 neo-noir buddy action comedy film The Nice Guys. We hope you enjoy.

This week we finally leap to one of Glenn's favourites, after wanting to get here so long he finally leaps with costume designer Mary Zophres to 2016 musical romance La La Land. We hope you enjoy this episode more than 2 of us enjoyed this film.

This week we leap back to English speaking films, from Paris to the old west, with cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel. Amelie was full of beautiful cinematography and this week we view and discuss The Coen Brothers 2018 American Western anthology The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. We hope you enjoy.

This week we leap to our first foreign language film 2001 French romantic comedy Amelie. We got to this film through actor Mathieu Kassovitz and had some disagreements during our discussion about this film. We hope you enjoy.

This week we leap with Bruce Willis to a cult classic favourite of many - 1997 French sci-fi action film The Fifth Element. This film is coming up to being 30 years old. Is it still as great as many remember it being? We have an interesting discussion and varied opinions on this. We hope you enjoy.

This week we leap with editor Thom Noble to 2010 action comedy film RED. A refreshing change from last weeks (some would say) harshly reviewed film. A great cast and fun discussion this week. We hope you enjoy.

This week we take a leap with cinematographer Adrian Biddle to a favourite of Mikes - 2002 post-apocalyptic science fantasy film Reign of Fire. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as Mike enjoys this movie!

This week we leap with actress Geena Davis to the classic 1991 road film Thelma and Louise. We hope you enjoy this episode.

This episode we leap to the lesser-known Bill Murray 1990 bank robbery comedy Quick Change - we leapt here with actor Kurtwood Smith. We hope you enjoy this episode.

This week we leap with Robin Williams to one of his greatest films - 1989 drama Dead Poets Society. Surely we can all agree this is one of the best films we've discussed...

This episode we leap again with Matt Damon to his Oscar winning film - 1997 drama Good Will Hunting. Such a joy watching Robin Williams at his best - we discuss this and a lot more. Hope you enjoy.

This week we leap with George Clooney to the classic casino heist movie Ocean's Eleven. Huge cast of stars - could leap almost anywhere from here. We hope you enjoy this fun episode :)

This week we take a huge leap, right into orbit, as we discuss 2013 sci-fi Gravity. We leapt here with composer Steven Price.

This episode we leap with actor Nick Frost to our 5th(!) Edgar Wright film, 2013 science fiction comedy The World's End. We hope you enjoy this discussion.

This episode we leap with Hans Zimmer to 2009 comedy The Boat That Rocked. No surprise Glenn would choose a Richard Curtis films, but will we enjoy it as much as we enjoyed the last film of his we discussed (About Time - Episode 79)

This episode we leap with the great Allison Janney to 2023 science fiction action film The Creator . No surprise that Mike would chose a sci fi... but this film sparked some interesting and passionate responses...

This week we leap to our FOURTH Margot Robbie film in a row! - 2017 (2018 in Australia) biographical sports film I, Tonya . We discuss this crazy story and interesting film and more. We hope you enjoy.

After viewing two amazing performances from Margot Robbie she is finally chosen as our leaper this week and we leap to 2020 superhero film Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn). Scott generally avoids superhero movies, will he enjoy this one? Did any of us? Listen to find out! We hope you enjoy.

This episode we leap with Brad Pitt (for our third Brad film in a row) to 2022 epic historical black comedy drama film Babylon. Yet another super-long movie - which we are getting over a little, but will time fly by when watching this one? Another fun discussion which we hope you enjoy.

This week we leap with director Quentin Tarantino to his (very long) latest film, 2019 comedy/western Once Upon A TIme In... Hollywood. We hope you enjoy this episode more than Mike enjoyed this film...

This Christmas we take a break from our chain of leaps to discuss 2015 comedy drama The Night Before . We hope you enjoy this special Christmas episode and enjoy the rest of 2024!

For this episode we leap with cinematographer Robert Richardson to Quentin Tarantino's 2009 WW2 film Inglourious Basterds. Mike generally doesn't like Tarantino but has taken us here, so it should be an interesting discussion.

This episode we have a change of pace as we leap with Sam Neill to 1998 western/family film The Horse Whisperer . This is a fun episode with some... passionate responses! We hope you enjoy!

This episode we leap with James Earl Jones to one of the top submarine spy thrillers - 1990's The Hunt For Red October . A lot of people seem to like this movie, but did we? Listen to find out!

This week we leap with the legendary Carrie Fisher to her biggest and best role in the film that started it all - Star Wars! What can be said about this film that hasn't been said before? Nothing. And who cares what we have to say about it? Nobody. Did that stop us doing an episode on this film anyway? Not at all.
