The cinematic boxing match
We are down a Shaun this week, and what we lose in pure enthusiasm, we make up for in boring enthusiasm. Sharon makes it into a cinema (just before another lockdown) Tosin watches 6 seasons of Schitt's Creek in 2 weeks and Sharon sees if Ben Wheatley, Armie Hammer, Lily James and Kristin Scott Thomas can do Daphne Du Maurier (and Sharon herself) justice in Netflix's latest assault on the film world, Rebecca.

With the postponement of No Time To Die confirming that Film studios are Greedy Chickens, we have a rant about how that has led to recently reopening cinemas closing again, possibly for good. Shaun and Sharon was (a possibly final) goodbye to Cineworld on the Isle of Wight by watching Schemers, Saint Maud, Bill and Ted face the Music and Tenet. And we wonder what the hell we are going to talk about next week.

Today's existential question, if Cinemas are back but there is nothing new to watch, does it matter is Cinemas are back at all?
We wrestle with that in a week dominated by Netflix and Friends. As we get to grips with The Social Dilemma, Netflix's latest documentary blockbuster that seems to be complaining about Netflix, Enola Holmes in the latest attempt to de-sausagify the Holmes family, and Find absolute hidden Gems in the Public and the second season of Ghosts.

The week the long awaited return (we did ask for this right) of Bill & Ted is here. Sharon goes in for afters on After. Tosin finds another reason to think Australia is a horrible place in The Australian Dream, and Shaun tells us that 'Honest Guv'nor, he's never been to Borstal'

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.
