We live in a post-Gavin & Stacey world and superfan Johnny wants to talk all about the show, whilst Andrew, who recently witnessed every episode, only brings suffering by turning the screws on Johnny and the audience, making us all witness the maligned horror comedy starring Matthew Horne and James Corden that wanted so much to be Shaun Of The Dead for the Gavin & Stacey fandom. Cue games galore, trivia of the BBC sitcom and conversations about the state of comedy and cinema in Britain so as to avoid the on-screen atrocities.
The commentary syncs 5 seconds into the film and starts 20 mins 4 secs into the episode.

BONUS - Lesbian Vampire Killers Commentary

Nick spent the weekend at Awesome Con 2025. Hear about the Red-Carpet event, meeting Simon Pegg & Nick Frost and so much more from the weekend.

Awesome Con 2025 Recap

Everybody Runs, some simply run their mouth. We dive into Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning before jumping to Spielberg and Cruise’s first feature together, the sci-fi noir that has Tom Cruise calling Colin Farrell a twink. And other elements, but mainly that.

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture

For this week's second podcast review, Dan Bayer, Alyssa Christian, Daniel Howat & Giovanni Lago join me to review and discuss the final "Mission: Impossible" film, "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning" starring Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Henry Czerny, Angela Bassett, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Holt McCallany, Janet McTeer, Nick Offerman, Hannah Waddingham, Shea Whigham, Greg Tarzan Davis, Charles Parnell, Mark Gatiss, Tramell Tillman & Katy O'Brian. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie and continuing where "Dead Reckoning" left off, with one of the largest production budgets in history, the longest runtime of the franchise, and as the cumulative eighth film in a nearly thirty-year franchise, this is by far the biggest "Mission: Impossible" film to date. But does bigger always mean better? Please tune in as we discuss the story, character arcs, set pieces, stunts, craftsmanship, the franchise's future, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening. We hope you enjoy...one last time.

"Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning"

A wide-ranging discussion follows the release of the final Mission: Impossible film... perhaps. José doesn't believe that they'll stop making them, nor does he want them to, but he is glad that Tom Cruise appears to be hanging up his boots - he's just too old now. While he reflects on Cruise's career and stardom, Mike's watched every Mission: Impossible film in anticipation of The Final Reckoning, and tracks changes in their aesthetics, sexuality, and comic tone, as the series worked its way towards finding the formula that's become its signature.

Recorded on 27th May 2025.

444 - Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning

**Minor spoilers for MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING**

We welcome on the show Hollywood composer Max Aruj, whose latest credit is MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING.

In today’s conversation, Max and I discuss his beginnings as a student at USC, how that led to being mentored by Hans Zimmer; also, the circumstances that led Max and Alfie Godfrey to be chosen as the young composers of this latest MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, and the creative challenges behind the film's climactic sequence. All of this… and much more!

Join Andrew Dunn and Chris Triebel as they discuss Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning!

Then stick around for a review of We Called Them Giants by Kieron Gillen, Stephanie Hans, and Clayton Cowles. Kind of rude to call them giants and not address them by their names. What did Andre the Giant ever do to you?

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: FINAL RECKONING! And a review of We Called Them Giants - 168.2

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture

Our 2009 retrospective continues with one of the most memorable summer blockbusters of that year, J. J. Abrams's reboot of "Star Trek" starring a whole new cast including John Cho, Ben Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Winona Ryder, Zoe Saldaña, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, Eric Bana, and the returning Leonard Nimoy. Seen as a success the year it was released, it spawned two sequels and renewed interest in "Star Trek" as a franchise, which continues on television to this day. But how has this particular film aged in the 16 years since? Please join Josh Parham & Dan Bayer, and me as we discuss the cast, their performances, Abrams's direction, the story's themes, the visual effects, Michael Giacchino's score, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. We appreciate your support and hope you enjoy our review! Thank you!

"Star Trek"

What can we say that hasn’t already been said about the last Mission Impossible film? And why can’t we just go through it all again? Just because we love cinema, love Tom Cruise, and every tangent in between. Danny Gaylord joins us from the Film is Lit Podcast as we fawn over and shake our head at this very, very flawed film.  

You can find the Super 70 Podcast wherever you find podcasts. You can find me, my book, and my blog at www.thatdylandavis.com and @thatdylandavis on threads, Letterboxd, and Blusky. You can find Roziland MacPhail on Soundcloud and Facebook.  

38.5 Mission Implausible

A podcast by NextBestPicture.com that reviews the latest film releases and discusses various topics within the world of film and the awards race.

The Super 70 Podcast is a commentary you play along with the film for scene by scene analysis, or you can just listen in your car. Dylan Davis is the author of "FLYNN!", Dating Virginia, Buffalo Seine, and Threshold. He is a reader, listener, and appreciator of culture. Find him at www.thatdylandavis.com and on Twitter @thatdylandavis #super70podcast

Are You Movie Mad? Is the podcast that asks the most difficult question one man has ever faced. Cinephile Andrew Jones is perpetually flabbergasted that Johnny Ellis uses the online moniker 'Movie_Mad' yet at any given moment seems not to understand any movie references. Join Andrew as he journeys through a collection of films to educate Johnny and ask if Johnny is Mad about the movie he watched or remains Movie Mad.

The Media Lunch Break is your best resource for geek news, reviews, comedy, and the Oxford comma! We'll argue the oldest of debates: DC vs Marvel, Mac vs PC, Michael Bay vs our collective childhoods.
We're here to serve YOU!
And ourselves.
Mostly ourselves.
But hopefully you like it too! So sit back, relax, and listen to two idiots riff on topics they know nothing about.


"I have this romantic idea of the movies as a conjunction of place, people and experiences, all different for each of us, a context in which individual and separate beings try to commune, where the individual experience overlaps with the communal and where that overlapping is demarcated by how we measure the differing responses between ourselves and the rest of the audience: do they laugh when we don’t (and what does that mean?); are they moved when we feel like laughing (and what does that say about me or the others) etc. The idea behind this podcast is to satiate the urge I sometimes have when I see a movie alone – to eavesdrop on what others say. What do they think? How does their experience compare to mine? Snippets are overhead as one leaves the cinema and are often food for thought. A longer snippet of such an experience is what I hope to provide: it’s two friends chatting immediately after a movie. It’s unrehearsed, meandering, slightly convoluted, certainly enthusiastic, and well informed, if not necessarily on all aspects a particular work gives rise to, certainly in terms of knowledge of cinema in general and considerable experience of watching different types of movies and watching movies in different types of ways. It’s not a review. It’s a conversation." - José Arroyo.

"I just like the sound of my own voice." - Michael Glass.

A podcast welcoming Oscar-winning professionals to discuss the many beautiful, complex and creative sides of Hollywood filmmaking.
