At some point Andrew heard Johnny say “I never saw Tim Hill’s 2007 live-action/animation hybrid Alvin And The Chipmunks” so this episode exists. Johnny discusses seeing Six and Drop, there’s a deep-dive into the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and someone says “Alviiiin” like there’s a paycheque waving offscreen.

308 - Alvin And The Chipmunks

Well, we’ve run fast through the Frank Drebin cinematic experience before August’s big legasequel, and whilst finding time to talk Thunderbolts* and Final Destination: Bloodlines, we also take a trip to the 1994 Academy Awards, the box office of OJ Summer and Neil Jordan’s filmography. Everything the Police Squad franchise was meant to invoke.

309 - The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult

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.

310 - Minority Report

June’s strange theme of early-00s tech thrillers starring A-list Scientologists that also briefly feature William Mapother concludes with the Huge Act-Man/Halle Berry movie Swordfish, a film illegal to watch on anything other than a very ragged previously-rented VHS or scratched up DVD straight from the Blockbuster remainder sale. What delights will be discovered in the filmography of Skip Woods, the imdb page of Thomas Jefferson and the 2002 Critics Choice Award winners? And good god is there anything even in this film to grab on to?
No.

311 - Swordfish

blackout heart (demo)

Johnny is having a nostalgia month, taking Andrew through his Robert Rodriguez trilogy that feature Antonio Banderas, Cheech Marin and Danny Trejo, just decidedly less blood and guns than the El Mariachi trifecta. Andrew talks From The World Of John Wick Ballerina, Rachel Zegler on stage in Evita and Sondheim’s final work Here We Are at the National, high art and low blows, plus plenty of Cumming.

312 - Spy Kids

Let Loose

Yes, we’re in sequel mode but that doesn’t mean just the film we’re watching, we’re also looking at the new Jurassic World and James Gunn’s new take on Superman, so you know there’s talk of Krypto abound. Johnny attempts to remember anything about the second Spy Kids movie and, in failing, discovers through watching whatever was even in The Island Of Lost Dreams (spoilers, it’s Steve Buscemi and CG animals).

313 - Spy Kids 2: The Island Of Lost Dreams

The end is nigh, well actually it’s fully here for the first Spy Kids trilogy (the only full trilogy thus far). Johnny’s setting the game up to capture Andrew and make him suffer ThumbThumbs forever and ever. But before all that they have to discuss Marvel’s latest Fantastic Four movie, First Steps, and the London production of Sing Street on stage. Lots to play for, who will win and what will be left of them?
