The cinematic boxing match
Just before we hit record this week, the news broke that Dame Diana Rigg, legend of TV and Film had died. After we hit record, Shaun reminded us of this and we chatted about how she came to our notice, and then stayed there.
We also chat the possibility of Cinemas closing again due to tighter COVID restrictions in England, invite film buff Seb Junemann onto the show to save us in the absence of any new films in the cinema this week, and stare bewildering at Shaun as he watches all 5 Transformers films on purpose.

We kick off this weeks Podcast by remembering Chadwick Boseman, a man who delivered some great cinemati moments and promised more only to be brought down by life happening. To our Marshall, Jackie, James, T'challa, you will be missed.
We waited 6 months for Cinemas to come back, nothing compared to The New Mutants who waited 2 years to even get a chance of being in Cinemas. Tosin and Shaun find out if it was worth it. Sharon Catches up with the death of womanhood with Frieda Pinto and Leslie Odom Jr. in ONLY, Shaun Joins Tosin in the head scratching in TENET (We did say it has to be watched multiple times, so we'll review it multiple times) and Shaun goes Russian for his latest new film industry experience with The Blackout.

If you believe the hype, Tosin goes to watch TENET, and ends up with an existential question, 'Can you truly spoil something if you do not know what is going on?' , Shaun goes against his better judgement and takes one for the team with Spree, Sharon stays at home and catches up with Robert De Niro and John Travolta in Killing Season.

Week 3!! Week 3 of Cinemas being back and it looks like it's working. Shaun watches another Australian movie taking advantage of there being no blockbusters in Babyteeth, Sharon watches an Italian Pinocchio, Tosin again watches nothing in Cinemas, but there is hope on the horizon!!
At Home, Tosin arrives late to the Killing Eve Party, Sharon catches up with a show that shows no signs of dying in Fear the Walking Dead, and Shaun catches up with another Netflix original (will he never learn) in Project Power.

THe Second week of Cinemas being back is here and Shaun is as happy as a pig in the proverbial. Spending more time in the Cinema this week with Gandalf and friends than Tosin spent at Work. After last week's heady excitement, Shaoron slows down with a thoughtful french Drama in The Last Wave, and Tosin is just here to press the buttons as he managed a whole week without seeing anything.

Cinemas are back, like honest to goodness back, like not saying 'we will open again soon when Christopher Nolan decides to release Tenet' but 'actually book a seat and come watch a film in a darkened room' back. And we are reasonably excited.
Shaun goes Beast Mode (does he know any other mode)and lives in the cinema for a week, seeing Russell Crowe in Unhinged, Eva Green in Proxima, and some old film called The Empire Strikes Back. Sharon sees Eva Green in Proxima and Tosin sees ... nothing. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in a cinema because Cineworld beat Odeon to the Punch with reopening. Boooo!! But he does see The Nightingale, amazing film from Jennifer Kent that gave him a sleepless night.

As Cinemas (Cineworld at least) prepare to actually reopen their doors and honest to goodness show new films on the big screen, we have Wale Awelenje on who talks about how much missing Cinemas has been hard to take, how his first cinema experience left him saying 'E.T. phone home' for weeks, and how much he's looking forward to seeing Natasha Romanov leading the line.
In other news, Sharon watches Will Ferrell try and lampoon the unlampoonable with Eurovision, Tosin watches messed up X-Men in Umbrella Academy and Shaun revisits an old favourite in Man with the Iron Fists.

We welcome 'entertainment executive' (we're not sure what he does, but it sounds important) Jejuan Guillory again and he shines a shameful light on Tosin's knee jerk reaction to Revenge of the Sith, and answers so many questions that a separate podcast will be made.
In regular programming, we are thankful that this was being recorded remotely as Shaun and Tosin might have come to blows over Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods, while Sharon plays the peace lover.
Shaun catches Greyhound and XX on Apple TV+ and Tosin is late to the party with Killing Eve.

In Our 13th Lockdown (We miss Cinema) show, We welcome Miriam Reeve, who once left her 200 strong DVD collection with Tosin for a year. She talks why a DVD collection is a tricky thing to have on a ship, how Titanic was brought low by the salty salty sea of teenage tears, and why Tenet is the thing she most looks forward to when Cinemas reopen.
In other news, Sharon actually watches and reviews something (The Old Guard), while Tosin and Shaun circle a growing bone of contention that is Da 5 Bloods.

We welcome published author (we are moving in bigger, better circles now) Ben Jeapes onto the show. He talks us through the usual questions we ask, including a first film at the cinema that says more about his mum than his tastes.
For our lockdown viewing review section, Shaun has a surprising reaction to Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods courtesy of Netflix, Sharon travels back to the 50s courtesy of Talking Pictures with So Little Time, and Tosin Finally gets to see what the Hamilton Fuss is about courtesy of Disney Plus.
