The Reel World's Superhero Pantheon and Ben & Matt's Marvellous Journey combine forces once again to preview the upcoming Avengers: Endgame.

Having conquered the medium of film, Mike & Matt return to podcasting about television with the cultural juggernaut that is Game of Thrones one season at a time. *Enormous spoilers* Obviously. It's time for season 5 and its noticeable dip in quality, so it's time to decide who has it roughest: Cersei? Sansa? Dorne? Stannis? Jon? Feels like everybody is losing this week, except YOU, of course.

Having conquered the medium of film, Mike & Matt return to podcasting about television with the cultural juggernaut that is Game of Thrones one season at a time. *Enormous spoilers* Obviously.

Having conquered the medium of film, Mike & Matt return to podcasting about television with the cultural juggernaut that is Game of Thrones one season at a time. *Enormous spoilers* Obviously. Episode 1 naturally tackles the debut season and its decision to kill off its biggest star, the 'palace intrigue' of King's Landing, Tyrion's journey across Westeros, Jon Snow's arrival at The Wall and Daene...

In our final trip into the world of The Matrix we test Mike's capacity for putting concepts out into the world and summoning them into being (aka Big Idea Energy), and just generally agree a surprising amount, likely signalling the end of days. Fitting!

In true Reel World tradition, Mike & Matt are here to trash a movie they enjoy for 30+ minutes. Why not turn it into a fun drinking game and do a shot every time they compliment The Matrix Revolutions? Good luck!

Prepare yourselves for a rant 12 years in the making as Mike Thomas takes to his soap box to preach about The Matrix Reloaded... as well as Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean and just about anything else foolish enough not to duck for cover.

It's such a shame that it's so difficult to find opinions about this film online.

Tis the season for more podcasts! Mike & Matt return for two more alternative Christmas films, and don't worry, neither of them are Die Hard! Mike Thomas shares his childhood(?!) memories of LA Confidential and all its problematic content while Matt Waters brings another Shane Black detective story in The Nice Guys. Remember everybody: Facism Bad, Characters Are Important.
