S05 E16 - Twisters12 Sep 202500:46:33

Is it better than Space Jam?

Yippie-yi-yay!! Yippie-yi-o!! 

Finally, you guys voted and the time is here!

Twisters!!

Jade has been pleading for us to cover this film on the podcast since we saw it in cinemas and after much delaying, it finally won the public poll for the next episode. 

Now, I didn't expect to enjoy this film as much as I did but what a blockbuster! Tornadoes are a subject of fascination in our household so I hope you're ready for a few science facts in this episode.

We chat about what we liked, how cool science is and that Glen Powell wet t-shirt scene as we ask;

Is Twisters Better Than Space Jam?

Two Tron movies coming your way soon, so stay tuned.

S05 E15 - War of the Worlds05 Sep 202500:49:46

Is it better than Space Jam?

The chances of getting a believable performance from Ice Cube are a million to one, he said...

We are very late to the party on this one but when we saw they made another adaptation of H.G. Wells' iconic story, this time with more Ice Cube, we scoffed and chose not to watch it. Then curiosity set in...

Filmed during lockdown when everyone was busy buying loo roll and shaving their heads, War of the Worlds comes at the source material with more of a conspiracy theory angle. It isn't executed well.

We chat about what we didn't like, our love for other adaptions and slag this one off big time as we ask;

Is War Of The Worlds Better Than Space Jam?

Finally, it's Twisters next week. We'll see you then.

S05 E14 - Cats & Dogs29 Aug 202500:38:44

Is it better than Space Jam?

Dogs and Cats living together; mass hysteria!!

We’re throwing it back in this episode to the early 00’s when CGI was a mixed bag and family films were…special.

This week’s episode is no exception. Cats & Dogs is a short and sweet movie about, well, cats and dogs, going at it like they have for centuries. The difference here? I don’t know, some spy stuff too. And Goldblum’s in it.

We chat about the film that spawned two more movies after this (which is insane), chat about what we liked, what we didn’t and we even spit some facts too as we ask;

Is Cats & Dogs Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you enjoy this episode. Tune in next week as we rip a certain film to shreds.

S05 E13 - Batman Forever22 Aug 202500:51:42

Is it better than Space Jam?

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.

We made it guys! We made it to the Batman film that features Kiss From A Rose!

The last of our episodes on the Dark Knight (for this season at least), we're finally looking at Batman Forever, a complete change in style from what came before and Kilmer's in the cowl!

As Batman faces off against three of his villains, Two-Face, The Riddler and angst, we chat about many things we like about this movie and a few things that just don't quite add up as we ask;

Is Batman Forever Better Than Space Jam?

We're joined again by our go-to Batman guy Jake from Claws & Webs Productions as he gives us his thoughts on this movie. Subscribe to their YouTube channel for more Caped Crusader Capers.

As always folks, thanks for listening and we'll see you next week.

S05 E12 - Batman Returns15 Aug 202500:46:47

Is it better than Space Jam?

You wanna get nuts again? Come on! Let's get nuts again!

Welcome to the episode where we talk about the Penguin and Catwoman and maybe, just maybe, the caped crusader might crop up every now and then to stop them.

This is Batman Returns and if you were to stop me in the street and ask which Batman movie was under-rated and secretly top tier, my answer would always be this.

Jade's first time watching this so strap in as we chat about DeVitos, Pfeiffers and Walkens (oh my) as we ask;

Is Batman Returns Better Than Space Jam?

Again, we're joined by Jake from Claws & Webs (the biggest Batman fan this side of Gotham) who'll give his two cents about this movie too. Follow them over on YouTube and Instagram.

See you next week for Batman Forever and ever and ever.

S05 E11 - Batman08 Aug 202500:53:57

Is it better than Space Jam?

You wanna get nuts? Come on! Let's get nuts!!

In response to a certain someone not having watched these all their life, we put it to a vote and now we're covering the Batman movies, all the way from '89 to '95 (we already covered Batman & Robin)

Tim Burton takes to the director's chair to give us a very stylish, dark and broody Dark Knight, played by Michael Keaton, as he takes on his greatest foe The Joker, played by Jack Torrance himself, Jack Nicholson.

A sign of things to come for the caped crusader, we chat about what we liked, didn't like and we're not alone. We're joined by our good friend Jake from Claws & Webs, the biggest Batman fan we know to give us his five cents too, as we ask;

Is Batman Better Than Space Jam?

Claws & Webs make great fan films over on YouTube and they have a new Batman feature coming out soon. Subscribe to their YouTube channel over at Claws & Webs for more information and we'll be checking in with Jake over the next couple of episodes so be sure to tune in.

We hope you enjoy this episode and we'll see you next week for Batman Returns, in which Batman...returns.

S05 E10 - Men in Black01 Aug 202500:40:51

Is it better than Space Jam?

It's the MIBs. Here come the MIBs!

We're back to watching movies at home now after a stellar run at the cinema and we're throwing it back to the 90's with a Sci-Fi banger, Men in Black.

Grabbing Will Smith from Bel Air and Tommy Lee Jones from Batman Forever, Hollywood threw them into an odd couple situation with some amazing looking alien effects, a rap song on the soundtrack and plenty of pug shaking to deliver a film that only entertained one of us...but which one?

Join us a we throw respect at the master Rick Baker, as we confess our love for Mr Tommy Lee Jones and as we still ridicule "The Slap" as we ask;

Is Men in Black Better Than Space Jam?

Not sure what film we'll be chatting about next week but we hope you enjoy this one.

S05 E09 - The Fantastic Four: First Steps25 Jul 202500:44:44

Is it better than Space Jam?

Fantastic Foooooooooouuuuuuurrr!!!

Spoilers begin at 28:38.

Our last blockbuster of the month (blimey, we've been spoilt haven't we?) and it's an absolute banger.

This marks the first time this podcast has stepped into the MCU. Not out of choice, we just personally thought the MCU was done putting out interesting content...until now!

Marvel's first family are back from limbo (the 20th Century Fox wasteland) and are given a very flashy vibe change and we're here for it.

Do we have problems with it? Do we like it? Is Pedro Pascal in too many movies? All of these questions are answered and, of course, we ask;

Is The Fantastic Four: First Steps Better Than Space Jam?

Back to reviewing blu-rays for a while now, unless a blockbuster comes out we just have to talk about.

Again, Spoiler Alert!!

See you soon,

S05 E08 - Final Destination: Bloodlines18 Jul 202500:37:48

Is it better than Space Jam?

Life is precious. Enjoy every single second. You never know when...Good Luck.

We hit a bit of a snag with our blockbuster marathon. We have to wait a week before the MCU releases their latest and while the dust has settled on the man of steel, we weren't sure what to talk about...until today!

Ladies & gentlemen, Final Destination: Bloodlines.

A soft reboot of sorts, it's time for the Final Destination franchise to rise from the dead and breath new life into New Line Cinema's other horror property. With new twists and turns and plenty of carnage, we chat about what we liked, the horror community as a whole and, of course, paid our respects to Tony Todd, as we ask;

Is Final Destination: Bloodlines Better Than Space Jam?

S05 E07 - Superman (2025)11 Jul 202500:27:00

Is it better than Space Jam?

If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a remake? Is it a reboot? No, it's Superman. He's back on the big screen after a few years off and the slate has truly been wiped clean.

With Mr James Gunn taking over this new universe, what better way to start than with the Man of Steel himself. A brand new cast, a brand new franchise and most importantly, a brand new colour palette (my gosh, is this film colourful), is this new Superman movie the jumping off point we deserve, or is it the one we need right now.

We chat about what we liked, what we weren't too keen on and ask the important question;

Is Superman Better Than Space Jam?

Tune in soon cos we have more superheroes on the way. Four of them, in fact.

S05 E06 - Jurassic World: Rebirth02 Jul 202500:35:19

Is it better than Space Jam?

Life, uh, finds a way...again...again...

After a short break we're back and so, it would seem, is the summer blockbuster. And who better to kick us off than Amblin Pictures?

Yes, this one is a massive love letter to Jurassic Park and Jaws but it's also a bit of a soft reboot for a franchise as stale as fossilized bread. Yet again, there's another island with big ol' reptiles on so hey, what could possibly go wrong?!

With Monsters and Rogue One director, Gareth Edwards, in charge, the dinosaurs are definitely bigger, but are they better? Tune in as we chat through what slapped, what sucked and "what the hell are they doing" as we ask;

S05 E05 - How To Train Your Dragon (2025)11 Jun 202500:29:16

Is it better than Space Jam?

Live action remake are like buses; You wait around and suddenly two come around at once.

Turning cartoons into less colourful, less energetic and all around dull movies has been a Hollywood trend for a while now but now Dreamworks has thrown their hat into the ring and it's taken flight.

Clearly an advertisement for Epic Universe (not a plug but if free tickets get sent our way, result!) How To Train Your Dragon is the first Dreamworks banger to get the real world treatment and honestly, it's quite good.

So join us as Jade & I chat about what we liked, disliked and didn't mind about the latest blockbuster as we ask;

Is How To Train Your Dragon Better Than Space Jam?

Let us be glad, let us be grateful!

Needless to say, last year Wicked was easily one of our favourite movies and luckily for us, the musical has been split into two parts. We’ve had our intermission drinks, eaten our ice cream and now finally, Act 2 is here…For Good!

In this episode, we hint at what’s been teased, how we think the film will improve on the story, what could be added and ask the important question;

S05 E03 - The Emoji Movie30 May 202500:33:11

Is it better than Space Jam?

💩

Not gonna lie to you folks, this was a difficult one to get through. From the heights of Spice World, we're fallen to a new low and this is probably the worst film we'll ever cover on the podcast; The Emoji Movie.

Art is dead and we killed it, The Emoji Movie is clearly a film that came out way too late and is written by writers who have no idea how teenagers (or even phones for that matter) work, but our job here isn't to get you to watch it. Our job is only to ask you a simple question;

How can James Corden keep getting work like this?

and also;

Another Disney remake? Gosh, we are lucky, aren't we?

This time, that little blue alien that you find on duvet sets in Primark gets the live action treatment. Originally planned as a Disney+ original, the powers that be decided that the trailer caused enough of a reaction to get it on the big screen, so here we are.

From dreadfully miscast aliens, to surfing in Hawaii and all the Elvis songs inbetween, join Jade & I as we chat about what we liked, disliked and hated about Lilo & Stitch and ask;

People of the world, Spice up your life!

Well, we took a very long, very unexpected break after season 4 ended with The Minecraft Movie but, like the changing of the seasons...the seasons have changed.

Welcome to The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast: A New Legacy Season 5!!

And we've picked a banger for you all. We're your hosts, James and Jade and this is Spice World.

The Spice Girls were all the rage back in the 90s and sometimes that meant you get a movie. Is it a product of the times? Absolutley, but what fun.

Join Jade and I as we chat about what we liked, what we didn't like and our Lord and Savior Alan Cumming as ask;

S04 E33 - A Minecraft Movie05 Apr 202500:34:50

Is it better than Space Jam?

As a child, I yearned for the mines. As an adult, not so much...

Right then, let's get this one out of the way. As time goes on, humans seem to get better and better at adapting video games. From the early Super Mario and Street Fighters to The Last of Us, Fallout and Sonic, we have mastered the formula, but every now and then, something comes along to take us right back to square one.

Welcome to this episode about A Minecraft Movie.

A film where we let Jack Black run around on a green screen for nearly two hours with a few of his new friends. A game about mining and crafting has been turned into this epic new adventure with memes and typical Jack Blackisms so let's chat about them.

We chat about the few things we liked, a lot we didn't and where we see this film going in terms of box office revenue as we ask;

Is it better than Space Jam?

I don't care what universe you're from, that's gotta hurt!

Welcome back folks as, yet again, we struggle to decide how to end a season. Luckily for us, Jack Quaid has answered our prayers by dropping a new action comedy, in cinemas now, so why not talk about it?

Jack Quaid plays Nathan Caine, an bank clerk who doesn't feel any pain due to a condition he has. That won't stop him on a quest for true love however as this fun little movie gives us some unique action and some genuine good vibes (with some gross scenes for good measure)

We chat about what we liked, nepotism in Hollywood and try not to spoil the movie for you as we ask;

We're not quite done with season 4 yet.

A few weeks ago, we announced our lineup for season 5 of our podcast but we forgot to check when films are being released and Disney, in their infinite wisdom, decided to drop Snow White so here we are to talk about it.

You'd be appy to know that this episode was recorded away from the press and the media and we only invited each other. We won't be talking about any of the stories that surround this new live action remake but we will chat about what we liked, what we didn't like and whatever Gal Gadot was doing as we ask;

Like the title suggests, this is indeed the third one.

The difficult third album. Shrek the Third had very big shoes to fill following the masterpiece that was Shrek 2. Does it deliver? Not even close.

It's interesting that the wheels have fallen off so suddenly with this franchise and there's a lot to unpack. Timberlake, Live & Let Die for no reason, weak villains and just a sense that the franchise is getting a little bit tired, but join us as we chat about the things we liked (there weren't many), things we didnt and finally get around to asking the question;

Freedom! Beauty! Space! Jam!

Happy belated Valentine's Day to you all and although last week we were still in the midst of a Sonic marathon, we made up for it this week with Moulin Rouge, a jukebox musical to rival all other jukebox musicals.

Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor lead us on this beautifully tragic tale about love overcoming all obstacles with some absolute bangers thrown in. It's an energetic blast of passion, directed by Baz Luhrmann and, in this episode, we chat about it, the bits that work and the bits that don't and as usual, we do get sidetracked too as we ask;

Here we are folks, at the film that made us drop everything and review the Sonic franchise because we wanted to talk about this movie so much.

Sonic 3 picks up where the second left off, however, a chaotic force is on the rise in the form of Shadow the Hedgehog, a darker version of Sonic, and it's up to our favourite blue friend to stop it.

Now, we do we get a bit off track in the episode, asking the important question "What the hell was the millenium dome?" but we do eventually get around to asking;

Now, I know what you're thinking. "Hey! This isn't the Homeward Bound episode you promised!" and you'd be right but why not dip our toes back into the world of Sega.

Sonic the Hedgehog probably wasn't the easiest film to make, what with Sonic's original design uniting fans across the world to reach out and express their distaste but the producers listened and we wouldn't be where we are now without it.

We're starting with Elf, a 2003 comedy about an Elf's journey to discover his true family and purpose.  Now, both of us have only seen this once before and we're not super fans. Sadly, our feelings towards the film haven't changed but join us as we chat about what we liked, what we don't and ask;

Is Elf Better Than Space Jam?

More Christmas episodes are on their way. We hope you tune in.

S04 E14 - The Rocky Horror Picture Show29 Nov 202400:53:40

Is it better than Space Jam?

One from the vaults!

Welcome back folks, and because we miscalculated when Wicked was going to be released, we had a gap that we needed to fill just before Christmas.  Consider your stockings full to overflowing.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a cult classic. Arguably, it is the first cult classic, and because we are the theatre kids we are, it's your latest episode of the podcast.

We chat about the film, dropping little nuggets of trivia as we chat about what we liked, what we loved and the main man Tim Curry, as we ask ourselves;

Is The Rocky Horror Picture Show Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you tune in, we could have talked about this film for much longer.

See you next week for Christmas!

S04 E13 - Wicked23 Nov 202400:54:21

Is it better than Space Jam?

Minor spoilers ahead in this one.

We finally made it folks. A film that literally everyone we know is talking about has finally arrived. Wicked is here!

Here at Biscuits & Blurays, we always think a filmed production is always better than a movie adaptation.  Luckily, that isn't the case here.  Split into two seperare movies, we find our seats, settle down, read the programme and let act one wash over us.  There's a lot to like here, but it's not without it's questionable decisions.

Join us as we chat about what we liked, what we loved, what we thought was a little bit off and ask;

Is Wicked Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you enjoy the episode and we hope you enjoy the movie.

S04 E12 - Tom & Jerry & The Wizard of Oz22 Nov 202400:48:41

Is it better than Space Jam?

Happy Wicked Week!

And because we can't quite review Wicked just yet, what better movie to talk about than The Wizard of Oz...and Tom & Jerry.

Yes, we didn't fancy chatting about the original classic, we feel like everything about that movie has already been said so we've decided to see what Tom & Jerry can bring to the table. (Spoiler Alert; It's not much)

We chat about what we liked, what we didn't like and what genuinely baffled us as we ask;

Is Tom & Jerry & The Wizard of Oz Better Than Space Jam?

Tune in for our Wicked episode coming soon.

S04 E11 - How To Train Your Dragon (Trailer Talk)20 Nov 202400:27:37

Is it better than Space Jam?

Sigh

Here we are again with another trailer talk episode. What a surprise that with Disney pumping out more live action movies than ever before that Dreamworks, a rival company, has decided that was a good business idea.

How To Train Your Dragon hasn't even left the general public's mind yet but of course, let's inject some life into it, literally.

Check out the trailer for yourself then join us as we chat about a few things we liked and a lot we didn't as we ask;

Will How To Train Your Dragon Be Better Than Space Jam?

S04 E10 - Showgirls15 Nov 202400:47:27

Is it better than Space Jam?

After a short break, we are back folks so why not chat about one of the worst films of all time.

Today, we chat about Showgirls, an infamous film that needs to be seen to be believed. From its excessive nudity, its ridiculous writing, its shoddy editing, its over the top performances and one hell of a pool scene, Showgirls is probably the most 90s movie you will ever watch.  Luckily for you, we've watched it for you.

We chat about all of the above and ask a very important question;

Is Showgirls Better Than Space Jam?

Thanks for your patience on our break. We hope you enjoy this episode.

S04 E09 - An American Werewolf in London26 Oct 202400:55:29

Is it better than Space Jam?

Stick to the moors, lads!

Our final Halloween flavoured episode of the year comes with a bite.  An American Werewolf in London is our weapon of choice and honestly, what a banger!

Werewolves don't get nearly as many movies as the likes of vampires, zombies and witches (oh my!) but it doesn't get much better than this one...or does it?

Join Jade and I as we chat what we like, what thrilled us and more behind the scenes information as we ask the ultimate question;

Is An American Werewolf in London Better Than Space Jam?

On to bonfire night next week, we'll see you then.

S04 E08 - Five Nights at Freddy's18 Oct 202400:46:10

Is it better than Space Jam?

Can't wait to meet you. So join the animatronic family.

Last year, this film came out and everyone asked if we'd talk about it so we did the only thing we could as responsible podcast hosts: We waited a whole year for the demand to die down.

Five Nights at Freddy's is this week's Halloween episode and we are just two fools who haven't played any of the video games, so why not chat about it.

We chat about what we liked, what we didn't like, horror as a genre and all the little bits as we ask the most important question to be asked this week;

Is Five Nights at Freddy's Better Than Space Jam?

Tune in, get in touch and enjoy.

More spooks on the way.

S04 E07 - Corpse Bride12 Oct 202400:41:12

Is it better than Space Jam?

Oooo who doesn't like a wedding special?!

As most of you know, Jade and I get married this weekend and seeing as it's the spookiest time of the year, what better film to merge Halloween and weddings together than a stop motion film that Tim Burton actually directed.

Corpse Bride is more of what you'd expect from Mr Burton. A gothic love story of sorts, it lends itself to this beautiful style of animation, so why not chat about it. As usual we chat about what we liked, what we didn't like and the occasional distraction as we ask;

Is Corpse Bride Better Than Space Jam?

S04 E06 - Young Frankenstein03 Oct 202400:46:40

Is it better than Space Jam?

Welcome to our Spooky Season!

We have four episodes this October and as it is the spookiest time of the year, we dip our toes into the horror genre and boy, do we start off light.

Young Frankenstein is our first spooky movie but it's easily the funniest we have in store. A love letter to those Universal monster movies, Mel Brooks is back in spoof mode with his frequent star Gene Wilder joining him in the writer's room.  Many think this is their best work together but let's see.

We chat about the film, dropping little nuggets of trivia, opinions and stories before we get to the big question;

Is Young Frankenstein Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you enjoy this episode and tune in throughout October as things get creepier and creepier.

S04 E05 - Back to the Future27 Sep 202400:53:35

Is it better than Space Jam?

Our last episode before we get spooky up in here!

Welcome back to The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast, and here on this podcast, we are big fans of Back to the Future so we thought "Hey! Let's talk about it."

As we chat about the film, we sprinkle in some facts that you may or may not know about this 80's classic whilst pushing the musical as much as we can. From drooling over the cast (we're both at it here) to chatting about the gripping finale we ask the very important question;

What is Crispin Glover?

But we always ask;

Is Back to the Future Better Than Space Jam?

Spooky season next week folks, we've some good ones lined up.

S04 E04 - Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi20 Sep 202400:45:16

Is it better than Space Jam?

We've nearly covered all the Star Wars movies now. Hurray!

Although to be fair, if you've been living under a rock since 2005, you may count this as the finale of the saga. Return of the Jedi is the final film from the original trilogy, so let's talk about it.

Your hosts, Jade and James, are here to chat about matte paintings, Frank Oz, what could have been and what was as we ask;

Is Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi better than Space Jam?

Feel free to let us know your thoughts on this one, as we may upset some Star Wars fans but, let's face it, that's not difficult to do.

More Star Wars soon. More movies next week.

Back on the Star Wars train! Choo choo!!

This week, we're taking about the ultimate sequel, The Empire Strikes Back, a film that cemented Star Wars as a franchise that cannot be stopped.  Obviously, this week, we heard about the passing of James Earl Jones, so we have a little chat about his career and his legacy as well.

Not only that, we had a little chat about Dreamcatcher, throwing popcorn all over the place and Harrison Ford's hair as we try our best to find an answer to that age old question;

Is Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you enjoy this week's episode.

S04 E02 - Beetlejuice Beetlejuice07 Sep 202400:36:50

Is it better than Space Jam?

Don't worry folks, it's spoiler free and if there are spoilers, they are minor.

Beetlejuice has cast aside his floral shirt and isn't going to Hawaii. Instead, he's back up to no good in a sequel that should have come out much sooner.

Everyone (well, almost everyone) is back for Tim Burton's latest cinematic release and we've specualted before as to whether this film would turn out to be any good.

Aside from a brief chat about cinema etiquette, we chat about what we liked, what we didn't like and what we just found bizarre as we ask;

Is Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Better Than Space Jam?

We're back folks!

After a tiny little break, The Biscuits & Blurays Podcast: A New Legacy is back. Now in our fourth season, what better film to talk about than the fourth film in the Skywalker Saga; A New Hope.

Personally, I always enjoy revisiting the world of Star Wars (not you, episode IX) and I've managed to talk Jade into revisiting it with me.  Because we are who we are, we do get a little distracted but we've filled this episode with some facts, opinions and stupid Obi-Wan impressions before we ask the ultimate question;

Is Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope Better Than Space Jam?

We hope you enjoy this episode and tune in throughout the season for some more bangers of films.

S03 E32 - Alien: Romulus *Spoiler Alert*17 Aug 202400:45:55

Is it better than Space Jam?

*Spoilers in this episode folks!!*

Our final episode is here!! We made it!!

We have picked an interesting film to close season three of the podcast, and thankfully it's a new release.  Alien: Romulus is the latest in the Alien franchise; a franchise that even with it's ups and downs, holds a place in my heart.

A reboot of sorts, Romulus unleashes fresh blood on the series with plenty of Alien action but is it too little, too late? How does the newest film hold up? and most importantly;

Is Alien: Romulus Better Than Space Jam?

Thank you to my wonderful co-host Jade for a spectacular season. Thank you to our many guests we've had on this season. You're all better than Space Jam. But the biggest thank you of all to you, our viewers. If you find yourself coming back to our podcast, please know that we are incredibly grateful and hope you have as much fun listening as we have recording.

See you next season!!
