A Christmas Prince is the final episode of this edition of our Netflix Christmas Inception. What a film we've picked to end the year. This film is infamous among the Netflix Christmas movie stans and we can see why. This podcast will probably get us tutted at in the very least, but we regret nothing. We had a lot of fun recording this, and recording this year in general. Thanks for showing up, des...

The Holiday Calendar (2018) is the first episode of our 3rd edition of the Netflix Christmas Movie Inception. Join us as we fall further down the rabbit hole in a magical land where the stakes have never been lower. A poor little rich girl with a fantastic creative job and a doting "friend" yearns for a better creative job. It's a truly tragic tale. No worries, we shall get through it together. Jo...

Carry On Abroad is the last film in our Carry On Monthing line-up, and honestly, we're sad to see it go. What an unexpected joy in a chaotic year. This week we discuss our MVPs of the Carry On Series and our least favourite hotel experiences. If you've seen this movie, you know why that's relevant. If you haven't, we've probably just spoiled the premise in the description alone; sorry! Join us nex...

Carry On Matron is up next in our Carry On Monthing line-up! Now this one is the one to beat. Anyone who watches Carry On films knows this one is one of the best. However, is this episode one of our best? Well, a lot is censored. If you want to hear the uncensored version, leave us a wee comment and maybe we will release it. Carry On Abroad (1972) concludes our Carry On Month, so make sure to join...

Carry On Doctor is up next in our Carry On Monthing Month! Remember how we said we would be watching Carry On Matron? We changed our minds. If you've somehow managed to avoid seeing any clips of Carry On Doctor, if not the whole film, then you're really missing out on some chaos. How do we relate this film to Mulan? You'll have to listen and find out. Join us next week as we watch Carry On Matron...

Carry On Screaming! (1966) kicks off our Carry On Podcasting month! The Carry On series is a very British comedy franchise that starred the same team of actors in 30ish films. If you haven't heard of them, you're missing out. Calum has somehow avoided them all until now, but this month will change that. Will he enjoy them? Or will he keep to his regularly scheduled negativity? You'll have to liste...

Halloween (1978) wraps up our Slasher Month. This is one of the most iconic horror movies of all time, so of course Sam hasn't seen it. She was also surprised to learn that the Austin Powers guy had nothing to do with it. In this episode we do maths, discuss whether we are fit enough to become serial killers, and talk multi-verses - so there's a lot to enjoy. Join us next week as we kick-start our...

Friday the 13th (1980) is up next in our Slasher Month, but the true horror lies in the fact that this little summary box erased itself after this was all written out. You'll never get to know how good it was before. All the secrets to life were here. Oh well. This episode contains the usual shenanigans and lots of chat about how SHOOK we were at the twist—no clues as to how we managed to avoid ha...

Child's Play  (1988) is next in our Slasher Month of Terror! Calum picked this film, but Sam gets weirdly defensive over Calum trying to apply logic. Is it because it's a film about a possessed doll? Or is it because she has decided to rain on his parade and create his nightmare? Probably a mixture of both. In this moment I can't remember what we're watching next week so hopefully one day I rememb...

Scream (1996) kicks off our annual celebration of the spooky side of cinema. In our 2024 fright fest, we're looking at some of the best slasher films (that we know of). Prepare to share in Calum's terror of not knowing where his own point is going, and Sam's fear of suffering through eighty minutes of cinema without a Dylan O'Brien appearance. Sit down, grab some snacks, and keep the light on. The...

American Psycho (2000) is the last film in our unlikeable protagonists month! We may have jumped the shark with this one. How? Well, no sh*t Sherlock is a serial killer a little bit unlikeable. This particular potential serial killer is especially heinous, so it almost feels a little unfair to compare poor little Danni Sanders to him. Norman Bates does segue us nicely into Halloween month though....

Ruby Sparks (2012) is up next on our Unlikeable Protagonists Month and wow is the guy in this unlikeable. Consent issues aside, the biggest crime he commits against humanity is being a terrible author. How dare you make us listen to terrible prose. We shall not stand for this. We have a lot of fun chats about men written by women and women written by men in this one, so you're in for a treat....

Not Okay (2022) kicks off our unlikeable protagonist month and the beginning of our comeback tour! Did you miss us? We missed you! We decided to ease ourselves back in by watching films in which we are encouraged to judge people harshly. Not that we need encouragement to do that. Bonus fun factor, we also get to rate this film in terms of O'Briens! A winner of an episode all around! Join us ne...

In From The Side (2022) wraps up our sad bullshit month, otherwise known as 'Not Like Other Movies' month. We're finishing strong and clueless, as we know very little about the moshpit sports ball. However, we do know a little something or two about Henrys. You're even getting a longer episode so we can properly whinge about him. There won't be an episode next week as we're...

The Breakfast Club (1985) is next in our 'Not Like Other Movies' month. We're going to conveniently drop the Sad Bullshit thing for a week because this isn't all that sad. This is one of those films that everyone has seen (apart from Sam), so you'll probably hate what we have to say (it's not bad). Tag yourself, I'm the flare gun that went off in the locker. Join us nex...

Lilting (2014) is up next in our 'Not Like Other Movies' month, otherwise known as 'Sad Bullshit' month. If you like awkward dancing, stubborn old ladies, and Alan; this film is perfect. If you like all your audio in sync with your visuals, you might have a bit of a tough time. We land somewhere in the middle of those two sides. Join us next week as we watch The Breakfast Club (198...

The Selfish Giant (2013) is up next in our 'Not Like Other Movies' month, more fondly known as 'Sad Bullshit' month. This film fits the theme perfectly! You may have guessed by the title that it's based on the Oscar Wilde short story, and it kind of is if you squint and spin around a bit. Or not. If someone would like to explain how it's related we'd be happy to hear it...

It's Calum's birthday month which means we get a brand new theme picked by him! A Ghost Story (2017) kicks off our 'I'm Not Like Other Movies' month, otherwise known as 'Sad Bullshit' Month. That's right dear listener, most of the films are going to be depressing hipster movies. Are you hyped to have an existential crisis with us? If so, you're in luck! We get w...

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) is the last film in our unnecessary sequel to the unnecessary sequel month and it is possible that we may have been led astray by the internet again. Why did you mean-spirited meanies tell us this film was bad? Why did we listen? The whole joke of this month was for this film and it relied upon it being an unnecessary sequel. Alas. And yes,...

Spider-Man 3 (2007) is up next in the unnecessary sequel to the unnecessary sequel month! Now, does this film belong here? Or did the internet being mean only make us think this belonged here? Probably the latter. Has anyone seen this film recently? Yeah, it's cringey, but it's fun cringe. So join us as we celebrate Tobey Maguire in all his dorky glory. We hope you have your eyeliner and s...

Shrek Forever After (2010) is up next in our unnecessary sequel to the unnecessary sequel month! Quick! What is your favourite Shrek film? If you didn't answer Shrek 2 (2004), you are wrong. Sorry if that was you, dear listener. What we can all agree on, is that your favourite Shrek film probably isn't Shrek Forever After . Or Shrek the Third (2007) for that matter. You can choose between...

Toy Story 4 (2019) kicks off the unnecessary sequel to the unnecessary sequel month, where we will be watching unnecessary sequels to necessary sequels. The concept is a little confusing so we thought we'd start easy. For example, Toy Story 2 (1999) is one of the best sequels of all time. Toy Story 3 (2010) gets away with it because of nostalgia. However, did we need another movie after that?...

The Hunchback of Notre Dame II (2002) concludes our unnecessary sequel month, and man is this is a weird one. Did you watch the end of The Hunchback of Notre Dame and despair that Quasimodo never got laid? No? Neither did we. However, Disney decided that this would simply not do so they made a pretty girl for him to go out with. Yes, he's just as shallow as everyone else. No local bog witch da...

Titanic II (2010) is up next on our unnecessary sequels month! Oh? You thought it was going to be Space Jam: A New Legacy? Well, you must have heard wrong. After all, how could we pass up the opportunity to see a gigantic boat crash a second time? What a twist! Will this be the film that finally adds a 'bored' tally to Sam's list? How could it? Surely the stakes have never been higher?...

Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (2023) is the second film in our unnecessary sequel month. Does it deserve to be here? Probably. Tell us what happens in the first Chicken Run film. Quickly. See? Unless you're one of the top stans, you probably don't remember. Why is that the case? Well, the first one was made in 2000 and while it is good, it's never really been spoken of again in the w...
