This week Andy & Kev are in their elements, talking about a film from the 80s that they've only ever watched on TV! They are shocked at the language in the actual film and also have 2 scenes they've never seen before, or at least 1 of which Kev just couldn't remember!

They talk about growing up with the actor Eddie Murphy before realising he's done the odd bit of comedy too and how young he is in this break out film!

Now the sections have been sorted on Top Trumps, everyone agrees there's less cheating, although Andy's obsession with making them logical still brings out questions. Does he think this is the best soundtrack of all time? Can Kev even remember how any themes from Star Wars go? All this and more as we talk about, at number 65 on Kev's list, Beverly Hills Cop.

This week we're holed up in the bar, drinking the strongest drink known to humans and trying to follow the rules. Andy and Kev discuss their past experiences with zombies, what their plan will be when they take over and discuss how quickly Rob would kill Zombie Andy.

We discuss if Dalton from Roadhouse would have survived, how much the Fifth Element rule applies to this film and come up with a whole new scoring system live and unprepared. Join us as we talk about #66 on Kev's list, Zombieland.

This week down at the bar Andy & Kev both watch the film for only the second time. We discuss bad ways to die in space (spinning forever is quite high), how the film can compare to Andy's first watch in IMAX 3D and how it's always nice to see George and always nice to see him leave.

If last season Andy wondered if he was in Fight Club and Kev was imaginary, this season Kev feels like he's in The Prestige and never knows which Andy twin will show up to do the scores (he prefers this week's!). At least the list is in order after last week's bonus episode!! Join us as we discuss #75 on Kev's favourite films of all time, 2013s Gravity.

Join us this week, with a very special returning guest. We cover off pink headphones, eye muscles, top 100 Bluey episodes, and Andy’s grandkids Bob and Bobina. There’s also chat about Freddie and Woody getting their own recurring segment 😁 Join us for a wonderful kid’s film as we watched My Neighbor Totoro

This week Andy repeatedly says he won't over sell today's film whilst also claiming it to have the greatest ever acting performance and being robbed of 5 oscars. We discuss why biopics all seem to be about musicians these days and completely forget to do any of our usual questions as we watch number 60 on the list, Malcolm X.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104797/⁠ @longplayvideo longplay.video

As always we cover off many films in one podcast (we are here for you fans 😉). Didn’t expect Ten Commandments: The Musical and Ally McBeal though. If that wasn't enough, we travel back in time to visit 2005 Andy (strap yourself in), Kev watches the film twice, but Andy still has to explain the movie to him. And we cover off this week's alien podcast and the topics they are delving in to 😁

Join us for Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

@longplayvideo longplay.video

This week we cover the "Gen-X Avatar", the "Boomers Star Wars"..otherwise known as Lord of the Rings!! 💍🪐

We bring a fellowship together, and decide who gets lumbered as Frodo. We cover the art of walking in films 😲 and Andy learns German live on the pod

The Princess Bride...in true Columbo style, we are naming the film upfront. It's a film within a film, a swashbuckling fairy-tale adventure. But really everyone it listening in to hear about Andy's hatred of Shrek 😱🤯😂 We discuss if anything is more powerful than true love (possibly chocolate), if this is a bit of a panto..."oh no it's not". And whether people in masks can be trusted 🎭🤷‍♂

We make it to a Hanks film, will we finally find out what Kev's beef is 😱 We cover some actual good 3 star reviews, and debate who's performance is better Hanks or Denzel. And was Hanks really 31 when he filmed Big 🤯

@longplayvideo longplay.video

The Empire finally makes its way into the video shop as Andy's big brother Rob joins us to talk about the lowest star wars film on the list, Rogue One. We discuss what to do when Disney call us up to make the next films but get sidetracked into which would be better a trilogy of Eric or Ewok! (It may be a split 2 to 1 decision]. Kev tries to use all his jedi mind tricks to get Andy and Rob to agree in anything (spoilers he needs a few more sessions) and today's random film that joins the discussion is the Meg 2.

Today we discuss the Michael J Fox classic The Concierge which obviously means we take time to talk through the career highlights of Vin Diesel! Why is this little known film Andy’s choice above Back to the Future or Doc Hollywood? Is it an elaborate way to test Kev’s knowledge of the career of Mike Fox and will Andy be quitting the shop to take up his career as a Concierge the film almost inspired him to be?

Welcome to a special bonus episode of the pod, where Kev sorts out the list so far! Who knew how complicated it was keeping a list of your top movies in order as you re-watched them all....besides Andy.

What will stay, what will be bumped and just how high will Road House climb!

Kev is straight away confused by why this week’s film isn’t a children’s film set during a particularly difficult lunch break and starts to think of businesses he can setup to get out of working at the shop. He goes into watching the film with what can only be described as fear and trepidation at another Andy movie but will he end up liking the film or is he slowly getting Stockholm syndrome? Join us as we discuss, at #69 The Lunchbox.

How do you talk about a film about the filming of a film about a book that is written about the process of writing a book? With some difficulty to begin with it seems! Andy takes Kev and the returning comedy adaptation specialist Sam, through a Cock and Bull story, trying to see how Meta (the adjective not the noun) the film is before criticising the fact you can’t find films like this anymore because of Meta (the noun not the adjective).

Welcome to The Visitor (2007)

Quote: "I pretend" IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0857191/ @longplayvideo longplay.video

This week we head back to the 80s to watch a young Christian Bale feature in every scene of a movie. Kev is unconvinced from the start but Andy is positive he’s going to love it. We talk about our favourite Speilberg and it’s not what you think and Kev makes his most controversial statement of the pod so far, declaring ‘war isn’t great’.

This week we cover off a Michael Keaton film, with a couple of “Other Guys” 😉 Ok, Fresh start…this week we discuss whether Wahlberg and Ferrel are heavyweight actors, or just chasing waterfalls 🤷‍♂️ How good are the bath mats in Bed, Bath, and Beyond. If you can cram 3 different types of films into one and make it work, and all things Febreeze Brothers as we watched The Other Guys Quote: "I was so drunk last night, i thought a tube of toothpaste was astronaut food" IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1386588/ @longplayvideo longplay.video

This week Carla comes down to the bar to discuss a very particular set of skills with Andy and Kev but are they enough to help Kev deal with what he can only call a revenge attack by Andy in the Top Trumps scoring?! We discuss how much Carla feels she's in the movie when she reminisces about going to the same U2 tour, how Andy finding out it was written by Luc Besson explains a lot and what other actor we want to see suddenly become an action star! Join us as we talk about #76 on Kev's favourite films, 2008's Taken.

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0936501/

This week, we watch a director's passion project (Tarsem Singh, not as the DVD suggests David Fincher). We (try to) follow the story of a lover's betrayal told through the eyes of a 5 year via a land of fantasy. We marvel over the visual spectacle, and the artistic nature of the film. But wonder if it is really style over substance. Welcome to The Fall Quote:

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460791/

This week Kev and Andy invite a guest down to the store to watch 1980s classic comedy Airplane! They discuss if you can ever really have too many jokes happening at the same time and if this is not only the first satire film they saw as kids but the first one period! Surely there's going to be a pun in this description we hear you cry...there is, and (all together now!) Don't call us Shirley!

This week we go down a dark path, one where only 80s kids movies can be found. We see if we can change our guests view on fantasy movies...or is he just lost to The Nothing 😲 We learn that Al Pacino crafted his late acting style from this movie. And we cover the darkness and similarity to Total Recall and Alien, or Australia Kids movies as they are known down under 🦘

Quote: "Confronted by their true selves, most men run away screaming" IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088323/

This week, we watch the ultimate film of two halves. It's funny, powerful, sad, and tearful. We cover off the delicate balance it captures, whether, as a society, we can still cope with films about upsetting topics. Andy takes on another podcast duo. And finally one of Andy's films makes it onto Kev's list.
Join us, and always remember..."Life is Beautiful

This week we have a lot of questions about "video cover design aesthetic" and how it reflects on baseball and Brad Pitt specifically. How will our sports correspondent switch from football with Sly Stallone to baseball with Phillip Seymour Hoffman? Is this a baseball move or simply a Brad Pitt movie with a couple of baseball scenes? Does anyone care about the difference? Join us as we we take a walk through the data that brought us Moneyball! 💰⚾

Spend $30M in 30 days...that'll only take about 2 days in this cost-of-living crisis 😁 We dive into a good "old yarn" with one of the great comedy duos (no, not Kevin Hart & The Rock, or Brendan Fraser & Tom Cruise), Richard Pryor and John Candy. Welcome to Brewster's Millions 💲💰💵 Quote: "None of the above"

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088850/

This week we dive into a Korean serene meditative film 🧘‍♀️ Set on a lake surrounded by nature, animals, dogs, cats, frogs…But is all as it seems 👀 Does the lake bring peace and harmony, are there life lessons to learn that inner peace requires a lot of work and is not gifted...or is there something else more dastardly afoot??? Welcome to “Murderer's Camp” 🔪🩸 Sorry I mean "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter...and Spring" 🌼🌞🍂⛄🌼

This week we watch a film that Andy pitches as a top 10 comedy script and performance of all time, it's Clueless! 🧥👠🕶

How will we find someone who hasn't watched this to give us a fresh perspective, surely not a horror fan from Wisconsin?! Join us in the shop for a true 90s...possibly all time classic and (re) learn a whole new language!

This week we take a journey on an uneasy and unsettling road. We take a look at a satire, that is informative, uncomfortable and funny. We discuss, crows, lions, stereotypes, suicide bombers, and walking out of the cinema. We also discuss the potential for the podcast to never end and continue into perpetuity 🦁🦁🦁🦁

Welcome back down to the bar! Special guest Jim joins us to defend Die Hard as the ultimate "heartwarming" Christmas film. Over Lager Shandies and candy glass cocktails, we debate Bruce Willis’s everyman status, useless FBI agents, and read a "bonkers" alternate-reality review where Hugh Grant plays the villain.

Did John McClane survive Kev's leaderboard re-order? Take off your shoes, ball up your toes, and tune in.

This week we step back to a radical era of BMX bikes 🚲, walkie talkies, and gangs of goons.

Join us for a round of 80s Bingo, bikes in water slides, drinking milk with fries, and Power Rangers, as we go "Down Under" 🦘 and watch the Citizen Kane of all movies...BMX Bandits

Quote: "It's not the bike; it's the rider that really counts"

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085204/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

This week a very special guest drops by for our bonus Christmas episode. They help us cover off usual Christmas things like; partying on the moon, school at the cinema, mince pie croissant, GBBO, and the meta world. We then move onto the lesser topics like, what is the definition of a Christmas movie, and why aren't people watching Water Babies and American Psycho in December. We finish reminding ourselves how nice it is to have a bit of magic in the world...Merry Christmas Everyone 🎄🎁🤶🎅

This week we find out who wins the ultimate game of Jenga…but will the bankers play fairly? 🤷‍♂️ We cover off everything regarding the Credit Crunch (or GFC), to predicting COVID, and selling CDOs to aliens. This film is a rollercoaster, and you will probably feel angry. Just remember to write it all down in a 3 star review ⭐

This week Andy and Kev discuss just how intense a film can be by diving into whiplash. Kev is confused by the lack of Iron Man 2 references but that's the bad snacks talking! 🍫🍭

The title makes no sense, the romance makes no sense, the laws of physics don't seem to apply!! Andy takes Kev on an epic journey this week, but is he "with him...or without him" on this one? 😉

Is the "leather jacket = cool" streak broken? 🧥 Can a movie be made for $100K? Would it be an inderpendent gem, or a complete flop? All of these answers to come as this week Andy and Kev explore the glorious streets of Dublin with the movie 'Once' 🍀

Is it a Football film, is it a romantic comedy, is it a ganster revenge film...or is this just the inside of Eric Cantona's mind. We discuss these topics, along with how communities, friends, and families can play a part in helping us all on our mental helth journey

This week we cover off a deep film, hitting light hearted topics like, how we want to be buried, would we stay in the bathtub, whether all films should be shot from a kids perspective, and the harsh post apocalyptic climate change world where the real winners are people who can brew moonshine 😂

Andy opens the show with a pitch for possibly the best sounding film of all time so why is it at 96 on this list? We discuss the glory of a film set in the future that is now in the past and wonder what this film's (and Andy's) obsession with hats is.

Things get weird as we tackle the type of film Andy used to be known for recommending and discuss how closely the film matches the dynamics on the pod.

Dust off your VHS player and grab a Screwball, thisweek we’re at #78 with the 1989 comedy Major League. Trish joins the bar with a "fresh" perspective, mostly because she mistook it for A League of Their Own, and missed the key intro dialogue that sets up the premise of the movie 😁
We debate the questionable voodoo gags and Tom Berenger’s creepy stalking of Rene Russo, while wondering why Wesley Snipes only runs in slow-mo 😂There are cardboard cutouts, Charlie Sheen's new line of glasses, a bonkers WWII mashup. And a veto debate on the scoring 😱 Will we all survive for next weeks trip to a 1988 Christmas party that goes "explosively" wrong when a guest loses his shoes.

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097815/@longplayvideo

FInally Andy and Kev review a film they have both seen. But will it be as good as they remember, will there be arguments on it's position, and what's all this talk about leather jackets?

Andy continues informing us about his prior jet-setting lifestyle. While Kev works out if this is going to be the worst 100 weeks of his life 😲

We open the podcast with the first entry on Andy's top 100 favourite films list, The Artist, Oscar winer from 2011.

It has no colour or sound, will Kevin return for the second half of the pod after watching it...is the pod over before it has begun
