Tv EN ↓ 93 episodes

Three film enthusiasts, Daniel Benoit, Jack Rennie, and Sean Jacklin, watch two similar films a week. One a classic, the other is generally considered to be on the schlocky side. Over each episode they battle it out and ask themselves honestly . . .which is better?! Special thanks to Chris Maddever for the artwork from S2 on!

Monster's Ball vs Catwoman 24.04.2023

Halle Berry week is upon us at last! What feline ferocity does she bring to these Oscar and Razzie worthy performances? Honestly, she's enjoyable in pretty much anything, even Catwoman, so this week's outcome is up forn grabs!

What Movies F**ked Us Up? - CKVS Podlet with Special Guest Andrew Cameron 10.04.2023

Andrew Cameron is in town to chat with us about movies that screwed us up in some way. We speak about untold terrible things, none of which are Uwe Boll but we should rectify that. Check Andy out in the Andy and Karl Style Hour on spotify.

What Make Acting Good? - CKVS Podlet 21.03.2023

How does actor make act? These questions and more solved in a very special Citizen Kane Vs podlet.

My Dinner with Andre vs Dinner for Schmucks - With Special Guest Michael Ruderman 06.03.2023

Set the table .... FOR FUN! Michael Ruderman stops by to help us through this meal based pairing. Might I suggest some Banff Ice vodka to go along with your listening experience. Makes it all go down smoother.

What Make Story Good? - CKVS Podlet 20.02.2023

Story good? How story be good? We give surprisiningly little insight into what we think makes a good cinematic story. Is it the script? The direction? Or maybe it's nothing emperical at all and it's just mushy movie magic that makes our brains go yay. Happy Family Day!

Requiem for a Dream vs Noah 06.02.2023

All the mother issues wrapped into one solid and terrifying episode as we delve deep into the mind of Darren Aronofsky. The old testament was a lot like the Marvel universe, and drugs are bad are just some of the hits this week so hit play and enjoy!

To Franchise or Not to Franchise? - CKVS Podlet 23.01.2023

We're tired so here's a podlet. Another instance where we solve definitively whether movie franchises are a good thing or not. Our decree will be handed down to the people after the episode and passed into law by all national governments. Enjoy!

The Tournament of Losers 09.01.2023

It's January Madness, except unlike the NCAA the performers in our bracket actually got paid. 32 of the worst films go head to head in a bracket playoff format to determine once and for all which film we've reviwed is the worst film in CKVS history?

White Christmas vs Saving Christmas 25.12.2022

Oh boy. A beloved paternalistic rah rah America Christmas classic goes up against a paternalistic theocratic propaganda film. It gets ugly. This one is sprawling, if you've got some holiday travelling to do then this is the ep for you! And to Kirk Cameron, may the yuletide log slip from your fire and burn your house down. Happy Holidays everyone! Our gift to you . . .

Superman vs Black Adam 12.12.2022

The one that started it all vs the one that might end it all? At least for DC. Apologies for Sean's mic, things were screwy. You can still hear him but it's faint at times (maybe that's for the best?)

Labyrinth vs The Maze Runner 28.11.2022

Round and round and round we go, in a maze of bad acting and bold choices we throw a truly beloved classic against a mostly forgotten Hunger Games clone to see which will find the secret at the centre of the puzzle or something or other.

The Neverending Story vs Legend 14.11.2022

It's Fantasy Adventure Month! Mostly because it's starting to get cold outside and we'd like to pretend we're in a realm surrounded by fantasy monsters, rather than the monsters we have to deal with on a day to day basis irl. Luck dragons fight the devil, puppets fight Ridley Scott, and the film industry begins it's long tradition of hiring people based solely on whether they make Tom Cruise look...

Dawn of the Dead(s) vs Chopping Mall 31.10.2022

Are we just mindless zombies purchasing our way through existence? Are malls the most dangerous places in the world? DID JACK WATCH THE RIGHT MOVIE?! We (in theory) compare Romero's classic zombie flick with a schlocktacular horny teen horror film. You'll want to bite into this one . . . get it? Like zombies bite. HAPPY HALOWEEN!!!!!

The Wicker Man (1973) vs The Wicker Man (2006) 17.10.2022

Spooptober is here again! What do you do when the crops fail? Well we're all gonna find that out pretty soon, but here's a couple of cautionary tales. Hot tip: Bear costumes, while entertaining, are not great for hand to hand combat.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day vs Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey 03.10.2022

We're back with full episodes and we're back for season 4! The AI have taken over and they've programmed a whole new season of entertainment starting with these two takes of time travelling adventurers. Austrian and stoner accents abound. Enjoy!

Is CG Good? - A CKVS Podlet 05.09.2022

It's right there in the title. Do computer graphics enhance our ability to create and understand film for the better? Or maybe is it a net loss? CGI Leia was pretty freaking creepy so maybe there's your answer.

Can You Separate Art From Artist? - CKVS Podlet 16.08.2022

Art is fun! Artists sometimes aren't. Is it possible to truly separate the creator from the creation, or will their actions colour the work permanently? We once again definitively decide an answer!

What is a Perfect Movie? - CKVS Podlet 18.07.2022

In our continuing effort to remove all nuance and subtlety from art, we bring you a podlet on perfection in film. What makes a movie perfect? Which films do we think are perfect and why? It's highly intelligent stuff here people, we're very smart.

Does Historical Accuracy Matter? - CKVS Podlet 27.06.2022

Does historical accuracy in film really matter? If that question made you feel something, then this episode is for you!
