Show Notes

This week, in our second genre concept episode, we are discussing...Action Blockbusters.

We dive into a discussion about our favourite and least favourite things about the genre, from Die Hard ti Kill Bill to Hot Fuzz to Point Break...anything we've seen (and seemingly with a two word title) we try and mention. We choose 5 steps to surviving an action movie, discuss which action movie stars we'd want in our film, guess which action character has the highest kill count and discuss all the stars of the genre that make us feel so comfortable: Willis, Cruise, Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Theron...a surname is all they need. 

If explosions and bullet wounds make you feel queazy, then there's still plenty for you to enjoy. In our news section there's an 'I am Legend' sequel to talkabout, Keanu and Krasinski are in 'DC League of Super Pets' and a brand new 'Alien' movie is in the works. Plus our trailer of the week is David Leitch's 'Bullet Train': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgTPhaNQTWg

Crack open a cold one, grab a slice of stuffed crust and feast your eyes, this episode's an explosive one!
