Hello, movie maniacs! This week, Mary and Dave watched Dreamworks’ newest animated film Forgotten Island. The film explores friendship, growing up and growing apart, and accepting change – with added humour, excitement ,scares and Philippine myths and legends. Unfortunately, like the excellent Hoppers, Forgotten Island is the victim of modern studios’ inability to market coming-of-age movies by trying to make everything look like Minions garbage. But what did Mary and Dave think? Well, let t...

Hello, movie maniacs! This week, Mary and Dave watched Zach Cregger’s take on the Resident Evil franchise. After the diminishing returns of Paul WS Anderson’s Resident Evil series and the disappointing attempt at a a reboot with Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City, things weren’t looking too rosy for Cregger. And maybe some of us were a little – or a lottle – disappointed that indie horror darling Cragger would agree to write and direct another instalment in this tired horror series when h...

To misquote Firefly’s Wash Washburn, “I am a Leaf Phoenix on the wind, watch how I soar!” The year is 1986 and the film Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van are remembering is Space Camp starring Leaf (soon to be Joaquin) Phoenix. Also there’s a robot called Jinx – not to be confused with the Halle Berry character of the same name. As the hosts talk they are refreshed by a drink called The Little Green Man, made from Brazilian Lemonade, topped off with a splash of Melon liquor. How do make B...

Hello, movie maniacs! After many failed attempts to see The Odyssey the way it was meant to be seen – in 70mm Imax – there is some good news. Despite some setbacks – a cancellation due to scheduling conflicts, an endless sea of people who also wanted to see the movie and were taking all the good seats, and, of course, the gods themselves meddling, as usual, in the affairs of mortals. But, finally, after all this, their onerous quest came to an end and they were able to see the movie in fabulou...

Hello, movie maniacs! This week David and Mary are preoccupied by the surprise hit Obsession, written and directed by YouTube sketch comedian Curry Barker. You might even call it a fixation. It’s become a meme machine, is still in theatres after a May release and has made over $500 million on its $750, 000 budget. Speaking of obsessions, these are the sorts of numbers that fascinate Hollywood, which, in Dave’s view, is going to be knocking on the doors of many a YouTube creator looking for th...

This latest iteration of everyone’s favourite webhead featuring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jon Bernthal and Sadie Sink is breaking all the box offices. Maybe audiences aren’t tired of well-made superhero movies? But what do Mary and Dave think? Well, let them fansplain it for you! Thanks for listening.

Hola, Sneakers! Welcome to Sneaky Dragon – the podcast that picks fights with strangers! It’s time to celebrate! Ian’s back! We know Sneakers everywhere will be waving their tongtoobers and blowing their dinglegarzers! This week: Ian talks and Dave listens; then Dave talks and Ian listens; then they both talk and nobody listens at all; and then there were a few moments were nobody was speaking and that’s when our ratings shot through the roof!

Thanks to everyone who contributed comments and em...

“That’s what I love about these podcasts, man. The series gets older, but the episodes stay the same length!” Vicky Van, Jason Dedrick and Eric Fell remember 1993’s Dazed and Confused – probably better than its characters would. To make them even more “dazed and confused”, they snack on smash burgers and drink Coors Light. They also create a tribute drink called the All Red All Red All Red. Want to know how to make it? It’d be cooler if you did. In an ice filled tumbler, add 2 oz Galliano li...

Hello, movie maniacs! This week Mary and David tried to see The Odyssey, but that was a no-go with Imax showings sold out until the end of August. So then they thought they should see the movie Obsession and talk about the YouTube-ification of horror films, but no – the projector crapped out that night. So…it’s Retro Fansplainers this week as Mary and David go back to 2023 and the film BlackBerry co-written and directed by Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie alum Matt Johnson with music by fe...
