A new Beetlejuice trailer is out, so obviously we discuss Schitt's Creek The Movie, Michael Keaton at the Oscars and Community (six seasons and a movie). We find a teeny bit of time to discuss Beetlejuice.

LADS prepare for Dune Part 2 by watching the epic 2021 science fiction film Dune Part 1. Starring some of our favourites, including Willy Wonka himself, the wrong Skarsgård, Moon Knight, and Rose the Hat, we enjoyed this more than we thought we would! We discuss the bold choice of calling babies Keith, Vin Diesel sharing his popcorn with Jason Momoa and the Skarsgård dynasty. Oh and among all that, we let you know what we thought about Dune.

This week, LADS watch the Wes Anderson comedy-drama with 69% on Rotten Tomatoes (wahey), The Darjeeling Limited. Starring an impressive trio of actors (Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman) and set with the backdrop of India, this film has a lot to offer. But you’ll have to listen to our reaction and review to see whether we all like the artsy style as much as Dan does! 

This week LADS are tired out from a long January and cannot wait for it to be summer now. We discuss our 2024 film picks, the ones we are most looking forward to coming out - we've got some doozies in there. And even though we were all supposed to pick one movie, we somehow end up discussing at least 12 up and coming films we're most excited about!

This week, LADS watch and review the 2023 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. This film was highly anticipated and our first ever request, come and see what we thought of this father and son love story. It’s a roller coaster. 

This week we watch the 2009 satirical black comedy film The Men Who Stare at Goats - with some of our favourite actors: George Clooney, Ewan Macgregor and Jeff Bridges. We discuss goats, their weird eyes, how every film we watch seems to have a questionable or glorious moustache, and our preferred superhero powers. We also discuss the movie a bit, in between all of that. 

This week we watch, review and react to the second film in the Cornetto Trilogy, 2007's Hot Fuzz. Directed by Edgar RIght and starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Olivia Colman and a whole heap of other classic British actors that have also been in the Harry Potter films, of course. In other tangents LADS are finally getting around to watching Game of Thrones (have you heard about the Red Wedding?!?!). We also remember cult British puppet Sooty.

Lads discuss bath tubs, vampires, graves, dancing and Barry Keoghan's age, that's right it's our reaction and review of the 2023 psychological thriller Saltburn, directed by Emerald Fennell. 

If you haven't already, give this awesome film a watch and let us know what you think.

This week we watch, review and react to The Archies, the 2023 Indian Hindi language teen musical comedy film. LADS need a funny sunny happy movie to watch this week, when it’s a cold, dark January, and this is it. A live action adaptation of the comic book, this beautiful film set in Riverdale is just what we needed. LADS discuss the (fairly thin, let’s face it) plot, our favourite characters and the film Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights (at length). Abi tries to pretend she doesn’t like Patrick Swayze. Dan outs himself as a stalker of Lucy and Sam. 

LADS go to the movies, to see the weird and wonderful Boy and the Heron, the long awaited Studio Ghibli fantasy film. Written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, this has been described as a “big fantastical movie” and we definitely agree with that. LADS also first released this as a live episode on New Year’s Eve, so we may sound a little merry.

Lads watch the period mystery comedy thriller film from 2022, Amsterdam. With an all star cast, including John David Washington, Christian Bale and Margot Robbie, LADS discuss Taylor Swift, mid Atlantic accents (don’t worry, we just discovered them too), and how good Anna Taylor-Joy is at being bad. This movie is well worth a watch, surprising at least two of us! 

It’s Christmas!!!! Lads sit down with a mince pie and a snowball to discuss our favourite film Santas in this festive episode. We are spreading our Seasons Greetings far and wide as we discuss such greats as Richard Attenborough (from Miracle on 34th Street), Ed Asher who played the big man himself 8 times, Tim the tool man Allen, and Kurt Russell, everyone’s favourite rock and roll Santa. 

This week LADS watch, react and review to Young Frankenstein, Mel Brooks’ 1974 comedy horror film starring Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman and Teri Garr. A timeless classic, with plenty of enormous Schwanzstuckers to go round, LADS discuss the hilarious bits, the problematic bits and everything in between. 

It’s Christmas!!! LADS kick off the Christmas season by watching and reviewing the 2022 festive comedy Spirited, starring Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds. Showcasing their trademark hilarious styles, but bringing in a musical twist? It’s a risk, but do LADS think it pays off? Listen and see!! 

On this episode, LADS discuss the new David Fincher action packed thriller from Netflix, that appears to be neither packed with action nor thrilling. While we review The Killer, starring the amazing Michael Fassbender and Tilda Swinton, we talk Marc Evan Jackson (a case of mistaken identity), the Ancient One herself and how a handjob can go wrong. We may have got off topic…

I love lamp! Lads react to their favourite lines, and review the 2004 comedy classic; Anchorman. Will Ferrell is joined by an incredible cast including Christina Applegate, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell and some regular SNL talent. 

Grab your popcorn, round up your lads, get watching, and join us!

LADS discuss the amazing, Oscar winning Telugu epic period action drama RRR. Where to start with this one, so many awesome things for us to discuss! Directed by SS Rajamouli and starring NTR Jr and Ram Charan, this is truly one of our favourites. 

LADS go to the cinema! LADS discuss the latest Marvel film, The Marvels. No spoilers! There’s a clowder of cats, Nick Fury has his eyepatch back and there’s a surprising amount of pajamas. This film is rated R from us, R for Rdorable!

LADS discuss what we’re expecting from our upcoming cinema trip to see The Marvels! Our special the Marvels edition will be released on Sunday! 

It's 1987. Or is it 1963. The sun is shining over the Catskills. Baby is in a corner. Patrick Swayze's hips are ... mesmerising. Someone has a watermelon. In this episode LADS discuss the classic romantic dance drama Dirty Dancing.

You go to meet your in-laws, one of them is Josh from the West Wing, he seems nice. But things seem … off… 🏃🏿‍♂️💨

LADS discuss Jordan Peele’s psychological horror Get Out. Listen along and see if you agree with what we thought about it!

LADS review Old Boy, early 2000s South Korean neo-noir action thriller, and are … disturbed. Also a bit scared of octopus. 

Abi will learn how to podcast in the near future and avoid technical issues like this! 🤣🙈🙄

It’s 2003, Oh Dae-Su is free after 15 years imprisonment. There’s an octopus 🐙 and a lot of teeth 🦷 and that’s basically all we can say without spoilers…. LADS discuss the 2003 South Korean neo-noir action thriller that is best not to watch with your Gran. 

“Do you like dags?” We do. We also like Snatch, which we discuss, at some length in this episode. 

We introduce ourselves to you, our (presumably) droves of (presumably) loyal fans!
