The Biscuits and Blurays Podcast: A New Legacy

Is it better than Space Jam? New year, same us! Happy New Year folks!  We hope you had a wonderful celebration and to kick of 2025 's podcast episodes, let's dust of the board games, throw on our loin cloths and run like hell! Jumanji is the first episode this year as we felt that it was the perfect film to watch over this time of year. With a great cast, monkeys in the kitchen and that...

Is it better than Space Jam? And with that, the 2024 season is over! Folks, we made it!! It is the end of our cinematic year and what a year it's been. From late night tv hauntings, to flying green witches and all the Madame Webs inbetween, its been a fun year so it can only mean one thing; The Golden Biscuit Awards 2024. Jade and I have compiled our winners and losers (even some of you have...

Is it better than Space Jam? Fa la la la la, la la la la. Our final Christmas episode of the year is finally here and looking back on this season, what a poor set of choices. That said, here we are at Deck the Halls. DeVito vs Broderick . What a grudge match this is. Actually, it's more of a slog really.  How many lights is too many Christmas lights? DeVito goes insane and takes Broderick wit...

Is it better than Space Jam? Look up! Yet another trailer has dropped and so begins James Gunn 's cinematic universe and what a trailer to open it with. Superman , previously nicknamed Legacy , has teased us with a look at what is ahead.  With Brainiacs , Daily Planets and all the Jimmy Olsen's you could possibly want, we watched the Superman trailer and discussed a few things we liked,...

Is it better than Space Jam? All aboard the Tom Hanks Express!! Welcome back to The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast where, it seems, we take a beloved Christmas movie and tear it to shreds.  Maybe the Christmas spirit hasn't quite hit us yet but here we are. Not only is The Polar Express a vehicle that ships children to visit Santa Claus , but it's also a vehicle for T om Hanks ' man...

Is it better than Space Jam? Goodbye Buddy. Hope you find your dad! We have arrived at the most wonderful time of the year! People are sharing the Christmas cheer and we are no exception. In December, we get festive. We did it last year so why not do it again this year. We're starting with Elf , a 2003 comedy about an Elf 's journey to discover his true family and purpose.  Now, both of...

Is it better than Space Jam? One from the vaults! Welcome back folks, and because we miscalculated when Wicked was going to be released, we had a gap that we needed to fill just before Christmas .  Consider your stockings full to overflowing. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a cult classic. Arguably, it is the first cult classic, and because we are the theatre kids we are, it's your latest ep...

Is it better than Space Jam? Minor spoilers ahead in this one. We finally made it folks. A film that literally everyone we know is talking about has finally arrived. Wicked is here! Here at Biscuits & Blurays , we always think a filmed production is always better than a movie adaptation.  Luckily, that isn't the case here.  Split into two seperare movies, we find our seats, settle down, r...

Is it better than Space Jam? Happy Wicked Week! And because we can't quite review Wicked just yet, what better movie to talk about than T he Wizard of Oz...and Tom & Jerry. Yes, we didn't fancy chatting about the original classic, we feel like everything about that movie has already been said so we've decided to see what Tom & Jerry can bring to the table. (Spoiler Alert; It...

Is it better than Space Jam? Sigh Here we are again with another trailer talk episode. What a surprise that with Disney pumping out more live action movies than ever before that Dreamworks , a rival company, has decided that was a good business idea. How To Train Your Dragon hasn't even left the general public's mind yet but of course, let's inject some life into it, literally. Chec...

Is it better than Space Jam? After a short break, we are back folks so why not chat about one of the worst films of all time. Today, we chat about Showgirls , an infamous film that needs to be seen to be believed. From its excessive nudity , its ridiculous writing , its shoddy editin g, its over the top performances and one hell of a pool scene , Showgirls is probably the most 90s movie you will e...

Is it better than Space Jam? Stick to the moors, lads! Our final Halloween flavoured episode of the year comes with a bite.  An American Werewolf in London is our weapon of choice and honestly, what a banger! Werewolves don't get nearly as many movies as the likes of vampires, zombies and witches (oh my!) but it doesn't get much better than this one...or does it? Join Jade and I as we ch...

Is it better than Space Jam? Can't wait to meet you. So join the animatronic family. Last year, this film came out and everyone asked if we'd talk about it so we did the only thing we could as responsible podcast hosts: We waited a whole year for the demand to die down. Five Nights at Freddy's is this week's Halloween episode and we are just two fools who haven't played an...

Is it better than Space Jam? Oooo who doesn't like a wedding special?! As most of you know, Jade and I get married this weekend and seeing as it's the spookiest time of the year, what better film to merge Halloween and weddings together than a stop motion film that Tim Burton actually directed. Corpse Bride is more of what you'd expect from Mr Burton . A gothic love story of sorts,...

Is it better than Space Jam? Welcome to our Spooky Season! We have four episodes this October and as it is the spookiest time of the year, we dip our toes into the horror genre and boy, do we start off light. Young Frankenstein is our first spooky movie but it's easily the funniest we have in store. A love letter to those Universal monster movies, Mel Brooks is back in spoof mode with his fre...

Is it better than Space Jam? Our last episode before we get spooky up in here! Welcome back to The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast , and here on this podcast, we are big fans of Back to the Future so we thought "Hey! Let's talk about it." As we chat about the film, we sprinkle in some facts that you may or may not know about this 80 's classic whilst pushing the musical as much...

Is it better than Space Jam? We've nearly covered all the Star Wars movies now. Hurray! Although to be fair, if you've been living under a rock since 2005, you may count this as the finale of the saga. Return of the Jedi is the final film from the original trilogy, so let's talk about it. Your hosts, Jade and James , are here to chat about matte paintings, Frank Oz , what could have...

Is it better than Space Jam? Back on the Star Wars train! Choo choo!! This week, we're taking about the ultimate sequel, The Empire Strikes Back , a film that cemented Star Wars as a franchise that cannot be stopped.  Obviously, this week, we heard about the passing of James Earl Jones , so we have a little chat about his career and his legacy as well. Not only that, we had a little chat abou...

Is it better than Space Jam? Don't worry folks, it's spoiler free and if there are spoilers, they are minor. Beetlejuice has cast aside his floral shirt and isn't going to Hawaii. Instead, he's back up to no good in a sequel that should have come out much sooner. Everyone (well, almost everyone) is back for Tim Burton 's latest cinematic release and we've specualted b...

Is it better than Space Jam? We're back folks! After a tiny little break, The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast: A New Legacy is back. Now in our fourth season, what better film to talk about than the fourth film in the Skywalker Saga; A New Hope. Personally, I always enjoy revisiting the world of Star Wars (not you, episode IX ) and I've managed to talk Jade into revisiting it with me.  Be...

Is it better than Space Jam? *Spoilers in this episode folks!!* Our final episode is here!! We made it!! We have picked an interesting film to close season three of the podcast, and thankfully it's a new release.  Alien: Romulus is the latest in the Alien franchise; a franchise that even with it's ups and downs, holds a place in my heart. A reboot of sorts, Romulus unleashes fresh blood...

Is it better than Space Jam? "Cos the movies teach us what our parents don't have time to say." Welcome to our penultimate episode this season and, before we end the season with aliens, we chat about this musical comedy from the makers of, well, South Park . South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut is the first time these beloved characters are put on the big screen, and since then we...

Is it better than Space Jam? Heigh-ho! Heigh-ho! Our final guest spot for this season. We are joined for a third time by the wonderful Kat from KissKatdoodles who chose to speak about a Disney film, and because we didn't know which one to talk about, we settled for Disney 's first full length feature; Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs. Kat and I will be chatting about what we like about...

Is it better than Space Jam? We love to boogie! As you know, we've had a lot of guests on and every film they've picked as been a relative banger! And this week, I was joined by the wonderful Sarah from Popcorn Chat , who knows a good film when she sees one. Sarah has chosen to talk about Billy Elliot this week, which is a British film about a boy who dreams about following his dream to...

Is it better than Space Jam? KHAAAAAAAAAN!!! This is the first time we've ventured where no man has gone before and covered a Star Trek movie on the podcast and I couldn't think of a better guest to chat about it with than Mr Drew Baxter. A Trekkie all the way through to his core, Drew has picked The Wrath of Khan to chat about today, as we talk about the cultural impact of Star Trek, th...
