#41 - Hall of Fame/Lame Scarlett Johansson Pt 2

Épisode 41

lundi 21 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:40:15

The wait is over — Part 2 of our Scarlett Johansson: Hall of Fame/Lame special is here, and it’s time to bring it home.

In this episode, we dive into the second half of ScarJo’s career — from Black Widow to Marriage Story, Her, Lucy and beyond — as we wrestle with the highs, the lows, and everything in between.

After nearly 40 films and weeks of watching, debating, and occasionally yelling, we finally lock in our definitive 5 Hall of Fame and 5 Hall of Lame picks.

Did your favourite make the cut? Or are we about to break your cinephile heart?

🎬 It’s the conclusion of one of Hollywood’s most fascinating careers — and one of our most stacked episodes yet.

#40 - Hall of Fame/Lame Scarlett Johansson

Épisode 40

lundi 14 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:50:09

You’ve waited with bated breath… and the wait is finally over. The Hall of Fame/Lame returns — and this time, we’re taking on none other than Scarlett Johansson.

With her latest blockbuster Jurassic World: Rebirth roaring into cinemas, we’re celebrating ScarJo’s legendary (and sometimes questionable) career by sorting her filmography into two distinct categories: five films that earn a coveted place in her Hall of Fame, and five that tumble into the Hall of Lame.

From her early breakout in Manny & Lo in 1996 to nearly 40 films later, Scarlett’s career spans decades — and trust us, this episode took some serious research, viewing, and emotional stamina to pull off. It’s a beast of an episode, so we’re splitting it in two!

In Part 1, we cover the first half of her career — from indie gems to early stardom. Tune in next week for Part 2, where we dive into her Marvel years and beyond, and reveal our final Hall of Fame/Lame picks.

Got a suggestion for our next Hall of Fame/Lame subject? We want to know!

#39 - Reel Kwik: A Real Pain

Épisode 39

lundi 7 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:01:18

In this Reel Kwik episode, we’re diving into A Real Pain — Jesse Eisenberg’s directorial debut that stirred up serious Oscar buzz and even scored Kieran Culkin a well-deserved win.

This bittersweet dramedy follows two estranged cousins on a Holocaust pilgrimage that’s as funny as it is devastating, as they uncover buried trauma and confront their tangled family history.

Did Eisenberg deliver on the hype? Is this the beginning of a brilliant directing career? And was Culkin really that good?

Tune in for our thoughts, laughs, and maybe a tear or two.

As always, Part 1 of our review is completely spoiler-free — perfect if you haven’t seen the film yet. Part 2 goes full spoiler mode, so if you’re still waiting to watch, that’s your cue to pause, go sink your teeth into the movie, and come back when you’re ready.

#38 - Top 10 of 2010

Épisode 38

lundi 30 juin 2025 • Durée 02:00:54

It's been a while since one of these...

We’re heading back 15 years to celebrate the cinematic gems of 2010! From dream heists and dystopian dramas to animated tearjerkers, we each reveal our personal Top 10 films of the year — and no two lists are the same. Expect passionate picks, controversial omissions, and a whole lot of film geekery.

Join us as we rewind to a stacked year in cinema and ask: did Inception blow our minds? Did The Social Network define a generation? And where does Scott Pilgrim fit into all this?

Here’s how it works: we each take turns counting down from #10 to #1 from UK release only. If two (or more) of us have the same film on our lists, we’ll hold off discussing it until it appears at its highest placement. That way, we can give it the spotlight it deserves. Once the lists are complete, we will rattle off our honourable mentions.

Let us know your 2010 rankings!

#37 - Robin Williams Draft

Épisode 37

lundi 23 juin 2025 • Durée 01:49:26

We’re celebrating the brilliant comedic madness of one of the late, great actors of our time — the one and only Robin Williams. From his hilarious, heartfelt performances to the way he shaped our childhoods, Robin was everyone’s favourite funcle.

If you’ve ever played fantasy football, you’ll get the gist. We’re drafting from Williams’ entire filmography, taking turns to fill six distinct categories. Once a player locks in a pick, it’s final—and that movie is off the board for everyone else. Draft order? Decided by the legendary Wheel of Names. And since we’re using a snake draft, the playing field stays even.

This week, we channel that nostalgic energy into a full-blown draft as we go head-to-head, choosing our favourite films from his incredible and diverse filmography. The draft is divided into six categories:

🎭 Drama

🤣 Comedy

🎬 Pre-1999

🎥 Post-2000

🏆 Award Recognition

🎲 Free Pick

With a career spanning decades and genres, this one’s going to be tough.

And let’s not forget: Daniel is the reigning champ of the draft and so far, unbeaten. Heavy is the head that wears the crown — but can he finally be dethroned?

We’ll be posting our full draft picks on social media, where you can vote for the ultimate Robin Williams Draft champion. And to top it all off, we’re wrapping things up with our classic IMDb film guessing game—Williams edition!

Get ready for laughs, heated debate, and a whole lot of love for Robin Williams. Let the drafting begin!

#36 - Reel Kwik: A Complete Unknown

Épisode 36

lundi 16 juin 2025 • Durée 01:01:16

Biopics are everywhere right now — so what makes A Complete Unknown stand out? Or does it? This week, we dive into James Mangold’s latest take on musical legend Bob Dylan, with Timothée Chalamet stepping into the shoes (and harmonica) of one of the most enigmatic figures in music history.

Does Mangold recapture the magic of Walk the Line? Does Chalamet deliver a performance worth singing about? And do you need to be a Dylan devotee to connect with this film — or is it just another hit in the biopic factory line?

We’re tackling all that and more as we compare this one to other recent biopics, question whether biopic fatigue is real, and ask the big question: does A Complete Unknown do anything new?

#35 - Reel Kwik: Sinners

Épisode 35

lundi 9 juin 2025 • Durée 01:22:41

It’s time for another Reel Kwik review — and this one’s a biggie.

We’re diving into Sinners, the latest team-up from Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan. One of the biggest and most talked-about films of the year, Sinners has taken both critics and audiences by surprise with its bold, genre-bending take on the vampire mythos.

But how does it stack up with The Third Reel? Tune in to find out.

#34 - Ex Machina vs. Her

Épisode 34

lundi 2 juin 2025 • Durée 02:23:16

Our Versus format is back—and this one’s a battle of tech.

We’re diving into the sci-fi worlds of Ex Machina and Her—two films that couldn’t be more different in tone (one a sleek thriller, the other a tender love story), yet both explore the moral and emotional complexities of artificial intelligence.

They may flatter to deceive, but beneath the surface, both films are packed with meaning, questions, and chilling relevance in today’s AI-driven world. So… which is better? Which film offers a stronger portrayal of AI? And which one sticks the landing with a more impactful ending?

We break it all down across five categories:

Story
AI Representation & Design
Themes of Humanity & Consciousness
Visual & Cinematic Style
Ending and its Ethical Implications

Each film is scored out of 5 in every category, with a total of 25 points up for grabs. It’s Ex Machina vs Her—let the battle begin.

FULL SPOILERS FOR EX MACHINA AND HER IN THIS EPISODE. You have been warned.

#33 - Harry Potter Review Series Debrief

Épisode 33

lundi 26 mai 2025 • Durée 02:21:54

Just when you thought the Harry Potter series was over…

We’re back for one final trip to Hogwarts with a special debrief episode, reflecting on the entire film series and the franchise as a whole. It’s been a magical journey, and now it’s time to take a step back, look at the bigger picture, and maybe cause a little more chaos while we’re at it.

And who better to join us than The Third Reel’s very first guest—Demi Snape! A close friend of the pod and the biggest Harry Potter fan we know (yes, even more than us), Demi is here to help us reflect, challenge our scores, and sort out that final ranking once and for all. Just a heads-up: we briefly lost Demi during the awards section due to some technical issues, so you might notice a few awards where her picks are missing. Annoying, we know—and we can only apologise. Sometimes tech just isn’t on our side!

Expect laughs, debates, a few awards, and Rachael getting pulled up on her very passionate attack of a certain controversial character…

PLUS – we reveal the next film franchise we’ll be tackling in our review series. You won’t want to miss it!

It’s been emotional. It’s been magical. But now… it’s time to end the series.
