Movie Banter

A special this week - the second part of our and your "most hated films", which started in episode 79 - we continue our frustrations, this time with Broken Flowers, LA Takedown, Jumper, Parting Shots, Shark Attack 3: Megalodon, and many more...

It's another Jennyless week, but we plough on as best we can, taking a look at Unknown, The Adjustment Bureau, and Ironclad, together with some of your movie mashups and a healthy dose of banter.

Paul and Jon are unfettered by Jenny's moderating influence this week, and run riot across the tangent-strewn landscape of the Oscars, Battle: Los Angeles, and Rango.

Not a film title for once, but we couldn't let that one go. A range of movie types covered this week - The Mechanic, Never Let Me Go, Morning Glory, and Tangled. One day Jason Statham will make an animated musical I'm sure, but not just yet.

This week we take a good look at all the best picture nominees for the upcoming Oscars, with particular focus on The Fighter, Black Swan, True Grit and Winter's Bone (as we've not reviewed them before), plus a recap of our thoughts on the other candidates.

Slightly belated, it's our 2010 round-up, taking a look at the best and worst movies of last year.

Happy new year! We dive into 2011 with The King's Speech, 127 Hours, Narnia, Tron, The Tourist, Movie Mashups, and much more...

A Movie Banter special this week - we take a look at the best films of the naughties.

It's the Movie Banter Christmas quiz! Plenty of movie-related questions for contestants Jon and Jen to get their teeth into (and you, of course!) while quizmaster Paul puts them through their paces.

Now that would make an interesting film. Plenty of movies to get our bantering teeth into this week - Harry Potter, Unstoppable, Monsters, Due Date, and Rare Exports. Plus we get into a sprout/mistletoe exchange program, are amazed at Steve Guttenberg being at the Academy Awards, and Paul takes an unusual anti-ginger position. We've also got more of your and our movie mashups, of course.

An eclectic mix this week - Red, The Kids are All Right, and Made in Dagenham. Plus more movie mashups, and desert island flicks centres on best film featuring lesbians. Strictly mainstream movies before you get any dodgy ideas. Also a guest appearance from Paul's baby son Joseph, and a squirrel. Long story.

A jam-packed banter - Paul's back from paternity leave, Jenny's back from acting, and Jon is somehow geekier than ever. No-one should be able to name all 7 Police Academy films. We cover Saw 3D, The Social Network, and Burke & Hare, discuss movies based on board games, recall being insulted by famous people and the responses we wish we'd made, pick our favourite computer-based films, and play our new movie mashup game.

A special this week - Jon and Paul cover their (and your) most hated movies of all time, covering Batman and Robin, Problem Child 2, Teen Wolf Too, The Fountain, and many more....

We're back with a bumper selection of movies to banter about - The Town, Buried, Tamara Drewe, The Other Guys, and Devil, in approximate order of quality. Plus our plan to replace Jenny with Gemma Arterton takes a sinister turn, Paul conjures up a disturbing casting couch image, and Jon envisages an unusual KFC bucket.

A special episode this week - TV banter! Paul and Jon take a look at 24 and Lost, now sadly no longer with us, together with a few other of their current favourite TV shows such as Louie, Dexter, Smallville, Supernatural, and more...

Another action-heavy episode this week - The Expendables, Piranha 3D, and last but not least The Switch, just to calm everything down with a romcom. Also Jon demonstrates a surprisingly loud slap, Paul unintentionally self-edits sex and violence from a gory movie, and Jenny shouts "sperm". There's context, honest. Plus Desert Island Flicks is "best 80s action movie".

We're back with a full podcast - Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Knight and Day, and Salt. Heavy on the action, heavy on the banter, heavy on the post-Edinburgh hangovers - what more could you want?

The second half of our look ahead at this year's summer movies...

The first of two summer movie round-ups this week - we review the A-Team, and take a look forward to The Expendables.

An Inception special this week, as we felt it was warranted - if you've not yet seen it and want to remain in the dark until you do, save this one for afterwards. Our in-depth thoughts on the movie, together with a few theories, facts, bits of trivia, and other related banter. Plus we touch on the potential of Tom Hardy as a new Bond, Paul somehow uses the term "knob weasels" (we were confused too) and our introduction takes a somewhat disturbing turn.
