Fan Critical: A TV and Film Podcast

What are we excited to cover and see this year and what do we think will fall flat? We each choose one TV show and one film that we cant wait to watch but we also say what we think will be the biggest disappointment...lets just say there are some interesting choices!

We're back to talk/argue about the last 3 episodes of the excellent Black Mirror Season 4! After our differing opinions on the first 3 episodes we find some common ground with the final few episodes but there are still quite a few things we disagree on. We also get progressively more drunk as the episode goes on...we'll let you decide if that's a good thing or not...enjoy. Advertising...

Happy New Year everyone! We are excited to be back podcasting again and what better way to start than by covering the excellent Season 4 of Black Mirror. We originally planned to do all the episodes in one podcast but after a lot of conflicting opinions we have decided to split this into two parts. So grab yourself a drink and enjoy our drunken ramblings and arguments on this very impressive show....

So it's been a great year for TV and film and we are here to tell you our favourite shows and movies as well as our most loved Christmas films. If you like our quizzes there's another one to cap of the year and John almost walks out on it due to controversy, if that's not worth a listen, we don't know what is!

We have seen The Last Jedi...and it's amazing. It fully lives up to the hype. It's a rollercoaster of emotion with more twists than any other Star Wars film. However, it isn't without it's faults a few of which are really silly but if you want budget Porg impressions then this is the podcast for you!  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://re...

It's just Len and John this week and we enjoyed the episode but there were still glaring flaws and shocking decisions. We have a lot of fun with it though so please join us as we discuss one of the most divisive moments of the show to date!

The biggest cinema event of the year is almost upon us so in anticipation we go together to talk all things Star Wars and to predict what will happen in The Last Jedi. We discuss how we first experienced Star Wars, why we don't like the prequels and John discovers his uncanny Porg impression!

Ok so we are one episode away from the mid-season finale, did this episode do enough to excite us for next week? The answer is...not really as we spent most of the episode focusing on a minor character in Eugene! But we did find some parts of it to be very important in setting up what we hope to be the finale of All Out War! We are almost there guys, join us to celebrate and mostly complain/have f...

Ok so this is probably the worst episode of the season so far which is a shame. It feels like a break from the action and the return of Negan which we got last week to quite good effect. Don't worry though we have a lot of fun with this episode so check it out if you fancy a laugh! Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Ever since Marvels Avengers, DC have been playing catch up and with most of their superhero films getting critically panned, did this movie do enough to change that? The answer is yes and no...We didn't love the film and we didn't hate it either. DC have done enough with their characters to warrant this franchise continuing. We have a lot of fun reviewing this film and even have a DC relat...

After last weeks strong episode this week is slightly confusing. We don't know what to make of it, we love certain parts and dislike others. Negan is really allowed to shine this episode and surprisingly so is Father Gabriel! John says he enjoyed it to everyones surprise and weirdly this week Len goes on a rant!

This season of Stranger Things has been amazing and has expanded excellently on the first. There were a few problems (mainly chapter 7) but we don't care, we loved our return to Hawkins. In this episode John admits he likes something, Lucy our very own Will Byers returns from the Upside Down and we all play a game...No not Dragons Lair!

We are so much happier with this episode! Focusing on Ezekiel and his group was a great idea and the devastation to our group of heroes led us to really feeling that the stakes were raised once again. There are still some negative points but overall we are impressed. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This 3 chapter run of Stranger Things season 2 is excellent and we are having so much fun watching it. We were worried that this second season would never be able to live up to the first but we can safely say that it is beautifully poised going into the final 3 episodes. Like a gaggle of Demogorgans we are here to flip it upside down and delve deep into this excellent show! Advertising Inquiries:...

Ok so last week wasn't great but The Walking Dead is back with an episode that improved on it's recent showings. Our group is in danger once again and we care, other than John who has returned and still has issues!  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We finally delve deep into the Upside Down. We are so happy that this show is back and judging from the first three episodes this is going to be a very strong season that builds on the amazing world of Hawkins and the lives of our heroes.

Well what do we make of that episode? There were a lot of problems even though there are a few really strong elements. All Out War is going ahead in a very confusing way and we get the return on a long lost character! We tear into it, even without John here!  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Walking Dead has returned for All Out War! We are happy with the season premiere even if we did want a bit of a bigger event seeing as this is the 100th episode of the show. Join us, laugh, get angry and have a drink whilst we ponder the episode and discuss our hopes for the rest of the season.

Stranger Things season 2 is almost here! If you are as excited as we are listen to our thoughts on season 1 and our predictions and hopes for season 2. Our season 2 main coverage will be live next week and we will cover 3 episodes at a time in each podcast.  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Blade Runner 2049 is the sequel we never knew we wanted. Visually stunning and very thought provoking if somewhat long, we compare it to the original, Phillip K Dicks novel and even question our own humanity!

Pennywise is back and he has brought our childhood fears with him. There are only two of us this week but we love this film and with Stranger Things season 2 on the horizon this is the perfect prelude to it.

If you liked our theory crafting in earlier episodes then this is the episode for you. We turn it up to 11 and push the boundaries to places we didn't think we were capable of going to... Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Well, what a finale! We delve into where this episode leaves us in terms of prophecies and how fulfilled they are whilst being devastated that the show is over for yet another year.  Crazy tin-foil theories are of course included.

This episode is traditionally the big episode of the season and in that respect it didn't disappoint. The action was great and it was another spectacle that we can't believe is in a TV show, however, when you look closer you see there are quite a few plot holes. As usual we come at this episode with a wealth of book knowledge and some crazy theories. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircl...

This week we cover the fifth episode in Season 7 of Game of Thrones titled Eastwatch. It was a return to form for the more traditional style of episode that this show has become so well known for. Lot's of important conversations and manoeuvring on a low key scale compared to the epic battle of last week.
