Godzilla Minus One 1:16:08

5d ago1:16:08

1:16:08

[School of Movies 2024] If New Empire is the best Kong film, this one qualifies for us as the best Japanese Godzilla film. Kaiju fans are being blessed with an embarrassment of riches in this era (check out the charming and dazzling animated Ultraman Rising for even more of this) and there has never been a better time to wrap your head around why t…

Kong X Godzilla: The New Empire 1:29:28

12d ago1:29:28

1:29:28

[School of Movies 2024] Fixed the title on this one, to both distinguish it from 2021s Godzilla vs. Kong, AND to give the rightful prominence to the Great Ape whose movie this most definitely is. Willow suggested the original title would be as misleading as "Loki x Thor: Ragnarok". This is my favourite of the new MonsterVerse films, by a narrow mar…

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts 2:13:48

2:13:48

[School of Movies 2024] The initial and glowingly positive reviews are coming in for Transformers One this week. It's the first entirely-animated Transformers movie since the infamous Optimus-Prime-slaughtering 'The Transformers: The Movie' in 1986, and I am happy and hopeful for the future in that regard. But what of the state of the live action f…

Deadpool & Wolverine 2:09:25

27d ago2:09:25

2:09:25

[School of Movies 2024] One of the biggest films of the year, and the greatest success for the MCU... which weirdly seems to avoid going anywhere near Earth 616, instead acting as either a swansong for the X-Men series, begun in the year 2000, or possibly a phoenix-cry. It really depends on how Marvel handles the Mutants in the next few years. Howe…

Almost Famous 3:03:40

3:03:40

[School of Movies 2024] This one is special on a level I am going to find challenging to articulate in a medium as clumsy as the written word. It is a show that has been promised for well over a decade, it took me four recording sessions and a protracted edit over the month of August. It is so densely and richly layered that I would put it in the s…

1:55:55

[School of Everything Else 2024] This is a very special episode, and might be a lot of folk's favourite of the year. What is a “FELLAS…” scenario?

Dazed and Confused 2:11:03

2M ago2:11:03

2:11:03

[School of Movies 2024] What is a "hangout movie"? It's a film that concerns itself far less with telling one grand, overall story of one or two people's development or journey, and far more on literally spending time with the ensemble cast of characters. In this show I draw the comparison between the characters we see here and animals in a safari …

[School of Movies 2024] This is a commissioned show for Chris Finik.
