Kino Kingdom

Britt, Lazlo, and Rupert cover everything from misguided new Heather Graham movies through to documentaries that no British person has ever heard of. Naturally all of this is filtered through Bob Hoskins love, and the nadir of humanity in a televisual context.   Can YOU get from Frances McDormand to Sam Worthington?

Britt, Rupert, and Lazlo once again reunite to talk about the genius of Gene, the deliriousness of Dav, and the glory(ish) of The Gorge.

Britt, Rupert and Lazlo return with this, their first podcast in 2025 where they discuss everything from werewolves to not-werewolves. What is the film of the week? Who wins the ArkinZ'Dar?  Can William Devane act? Should we talk about Home Alone 4?* Well, listen and find out! Listen...listen to The Men Who Talk.     *no.

Lazlo, Rupert, and Britt once again dive into the midst of war. Britt gets all cyborg, Rupert falls in love with Jack Deth, and Lazlo breaks hearts via his thoughts on the new Christopher Reeve documentary.   Also features the ArkinZ'Dar, The Super Mega Ultra Turbo ArkinZ'Dar, Max Volume's Hilarity Gags, and Utah Smith's Cameo Cost Corner Quiz.   Can YOU get from Glenn Close to Connie Nielson? ema...

Britt, Rupert, and Lazlo once again fall in love on the airwaves, using chat-up lines that include words like 'Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning', 'The Terror', 'American Movie', 'Maxxxine', and 'ArkinZ'Dar'. In how few steps can YOU get from Scoot McNairy to Helen Mirren? 

The traditional Kino Kingdom Halloween story kicks this episode off, before Rupert, Britt, and Lazlo move on to discussing a surprising amount of Bobcat Goldthwait, Marvel, horror...and more.   Can you get from Steve Zahn to Lee Van Cleef?   Happy Halloween!

Rupert, Britt, and Lazlo return with more movie action, leading from some great modern neo-noir through to zany '80s classics, and ending - naturally - with Michael Flatley.   They also talk about bread*   *the foodstuff, not the awful comedy.

Rupert and Britt are joined by their occasional co-host and constant lover, Lazlo Buckets! Together they discuss new cinema releases as well as films that weren't even driven past cinemas as they were thrown carelessly in rental store bargain bins over thirty years ago.   Is Longlegs as good as they say? Is the film called 'Don't Return', or 'The Return'? Can you complete the ArkinZ'Dar? Well? can...

The second half of Rich & Britt's conversation!

In a belter of an episode, Rupert casts aside the shackles of the corporeal form, and views all five American Ninja films, as Britt is reinvigorated through an unusual viewing of a film that...perhaps might have passed you by. This episode is dedicated to the wonderful M. Emmet Walsh.

Something a little different! As occasionally mentioned throughout Kino Kingdom, Britt is also a Senior Games Writer at Games Freezer, here - along with Games Freezer Editor, Rich - Britt talks through the first ten years of GF, talking to Rich live for the first time!

The boys are back after a jailbreak, and they are dancing in the moonlight as they mourn the passing of Carl Weathers, who sadly now adorns the ArkinZ'Bar in framed photographic form to be remembered and celebrated forever. They also discuss psychics, Oscar nominees, freeform film-making, one of the worst films Britt has ever seen, and some films that were -unsurprisingly - not nominated for Oscar...

Join Rupert and Britt as they talk through their films of the week, covering everything from Christian horror through to Godfrey Ho! Speaking of which, Britt has discovered the best G-Ho film yet, and also acts upon a listener request, much to his dismay. Do you have the Greggs app installed on your phone, logging in under multiple accounts to get free  birthday sausage rolls, daily? Martin Lawren...

The first episode of 2024 sees Rupert and Britt discovering some gems, as well as Paradise Alley. Documentaries on both Sly and Arnie are discussed, as is Jonathan Rhys Meyers - and, of course...The ArkinZ'Dar, Michael Fassbender to Eddie Murphy. Will Rupert win? No, he won't.

A merry Christmas to all as britt accidentally discovers the Italian Godfrey Ho, whilst Rupert frowns at Arnie, and fawns over Michael Fassbender.

A slight delay between episodes due to holidays and illness, but Rupert and Britt are back! Kicking off with an unplanned chat about clickbait, the two then go through listeners' comments, lots of movies (everything from C Thomas Howell fare through to Jack Scalia) and ending with their films of the week, and of course - The ArkinZ'Dar (Laura Linney to Christopher Walken) - in which controversy li...

The usual Halloween shenanigans ensue as Rupert and Britt watch horror movies for the spooky period. Rupert regales us all with 'Magic Mirror', before part 1 of a double-episode sets us on a ghostly course through Christopher Walken, The Blair Witch Project...and Godfrey Ho. 

Hello one and all, welcome to Kino Kingdom, the movie podcast where Rupert and Britt take you on a journey from one side of the DVD - which contains a '90s erotic thriller starring Andrew Stevens) to the OTHER side of the DVD...that contains a thriller starring Randall 'Tex' Cobb, and Traci Lords. Rupert muses upon The Hidden, as Britt gets covered in Michael Keaton. Good.

Welcome one and all! In this episode, Rupert dives into cult films as Britt talks Pooh. We also have comments from listeners as well as the ArkinZ'Dar - how quickly can YOU get from Peter Sellers to Simon Pegg? let us know at themenwhotalk@outlook.com

A loving discussion about the much-missed William Friedkin, some emails and messages from the listeners ( themenwhotalk@outlook.com ) as well as the ArkinZ'Dar. There are also film reviews peppered throughout, around the second half of our discussion of the worst films ever.
