Rebel Chums

With Lord Voldemort's comeback tour now in full swing, Harry and his friends find themselves in serious danger upon returning to Hogwarts for their fifth year. Looking to guide them through it is David Yates, who makes his first of six current appearance as a director in this franchise. Will Harry and his chums survive the force of Imelda Staunton? Will David Yates handle the largest book in J.K. Rowling's novel series? Rob, Jake, Andy and Ed find out...

We're back. Things are getting angsty and hormonal at Hogwarts for this episode as the Tri-Wizard Tournament comes to the old castle - just in time for the characters to realise they all fancy the pants off each other! Joining us on the panel is Nur, who's making her final guest appearance before she returns as a full cast member in the new year. She's not a big fan of the Harry Potter franchise but she is a fan of this one. Why is that? Well, you know where to find out.

Something wicked this way comes. No, that "something wicked" is not our guest this week, but a creeping sense of dread and the increasingly burdensome responsibilities thrust upon Harry in this third instalment - the Prisoner of Azkaban. Rob, Andy, and Jake are joined by Jay, who's back on the panel for the first time in more than a year to discuss the Alfonso Cuaron-helmed 2004 film. He's not a big Harry Potter fan but he is a big fan of this one, so we've brought him along to discuss the movie that's widely regarded as the strongest in the franchise. Do we agree?

Our journey through the wizarding world of Harry Potter takes us to the second film in the franchise, the Chamber of Secrets. After Dobby the house-elf implores Harry not to return to Hogwarts for his second year, the school is under threat from a mysterious monster and ghosts from the castle's past. Joining us is our good friend Toni, who you may remember from such episodes as "Monsters, Inc." and "Monsters University" from season 2! It's often considered to be the weakest film of the saga but do we agree?

It's season three, babies! That's right. We're back! After making our way through the Star Wars saga and completing the currently available Pixar canon, we're off on another adventure - this time into the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Rob, Jake, and Andy sat down to begin the franchise with Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first instalment of the worldwide young-adult fantasy phenomenon.

We bring back Nur to talk all things Toy Story 4, and to run down the list of our favourite Pixar films. The Pixar series is over - we're moving on!

We're busy these days, but we're back! Back to complete the Pixar set! We've invited our good chum Joe to hang out with us and discuss animated film's most incredible family once again. Does i2 live up to i1?

Señoras y señores, buenas tardes, buenas noches! In this episode, Nur returns to the esteemed panel for her final special guest appearance of season two. Her favourite Pixar film, Coco (2017), is on the agenda.

The Cars trilogy is finally over. Does Pixar's worst franchise go out on a high? Can Lightning McQueen redeem himself? Can our guest Ed make it through all three of these things? Find out!

We're back after a brief hiatus - mainly because Rob was in hospital and Jake was busy campaigning - to dive into Finding Dory. It's a return to the "Finding..." franchise. Can Pixar recapture the immersive and emotional magic of their 2003 classic?

We're guestless once again as we tackle The Good Dinosaur, Pixar's quietly released follow-up to Inside Out. Is it a good dinosaur, or is it a bad dinosaur?

Nur's back! Also, we're watching Inside Out. But mainly: Nur's back!

Returning to the complete the "Monsters" set in Pixar's filmography is Toni, as we head to Monsters University to watch the origin story of Mike & Sully play out.

Pixar take us on a journey to medieval Scotland for Brave! We're without a guest for the first time in season two, but that didn't stop the three of us from battling Mor'du.

Vroom! Back into the Cars universe we go. We're bringing our good chum and old guest Ed along with us because we're gonna need some company on this dangerous journey!

Back after our mid-season break, it's time for we Chummy Rebels to break out the tissues for Toy Story 3. Rob's mum returns to the panel!

It's the (slightly overdue) Rebel Chums Holiday Special! We're taking a Christmas break from the Pixar universe to jump back into Star Wars, this time with the notorious and much maligned Holiday Special, broadcast on CBS in 1978. We've also got Rob's Review of 2018 and Andy's outline for the plot of Star Wars: Episode IX.

Hey howdy hey, we're back! Balloons are strapped to our shoulders and we're off to Paradise Falls. Accompanying us on our trip there is Nur, who's come back to discuss one of her very favourite movies.

It's time to talk about Pixar's most adorable robot! We're joined by Vicki this week, whose surname inspired her to join us on the panel!

Some "technical difficulties" meant we had to record this episode in two parts across five days, but that doesn't stop us from talking about Ratatouille with our good friends Mel and Ross, who hold this film in their hearts.
