This week we watch Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, a film so monumentally misguided that it managed to kill an entire company. Join us as we discuss high quality bad CGI, the concept of 'virtual actors', and what 3 things we would save on an asteroid.

Also apologies for the audio quality on this one - Sam had some sort of insane crackle on the recording and some shitty kid screaming outside, and chris' recording was inexplicably 20 minutes shorter than the rest so has had to be chopped back in, hopefully seamlessly! I blame the heat.

Next week it's Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome!

It's a bumper episode as we head back to a galaxy far, far away, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Episode I. Join us for a predictably in-depth discussion of the making of the film, how our opinion of the film has changed over a quarter of a century, what a genuine child thinks about the film, and much more!

Here is Jenny Nicholson's incredible 4-hour Galactic Starcruiser video which Sam mentions at some point

Next week it's Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within!

We return to discuss Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow! But first, Alex makes the executive decision to discuss other films, so we briefly discuss Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, Furiosa, Atlas, and You Can Call Me Bill. Then we sadly have to watch the film we're here to see. And it ain't great. But at least it's a good excuse for Alex to tell his story about his copy of Horton Hears A Who...

Here are the far superior cutscenes from Jedi Knight - Dark Forces 2

Next week, prepare for a bumper pod as we give Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace the full SFRS 2.0 scientific treatment.

This week we take a trip back to the Riddickverse (one of many verses) and watch Chronicles of Riddick! Join us as we marvel at two films existing at once, chart the rise and fall and rise of Vin Diesel, chat a lot about mongers monging, and alienate anyone who likes metal. Sorry.

Next week, it's Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, which we said last time, but it genuinely is this time!

This week we 'celebrate' the release of Alex Garland's Civil War by looking back at Annihilation. Join us as we discuss the perils of adapting a story you don't actually know, whether Natalie Portman can actually act, and a strange bear.

Next week, get your annoying steampunk tat at the ready - it's Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow!

Accidental post-apocalypse/Fallout season with Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. But first, Alex has a random newsblast? Join us as we take our usual detour into mourning the death of practical effects, ponder if this film invented the post apocalypse, and generally just enjoy a well-made film. We watch them occasionally.

(When Sam keeps saying 'The man with no name' he means A Fistful of Dollars, obvs.)

Next week, it's Annihilation!

This week, Alex picks his birthday film - it's Albert Pyun's Cyborg! Join us as we discuss JCVD's career, butcher's shops in the USA, double TKOs, missing contact lenses, and a quiz which, let's be honest here, Sam absolutely aces.

Next week, accidental Fallout apocalyptic season continues with Mad Max 2!

This week we watch Ghostbusters II, except Chris who got the wrong film. But first, we have a little bonus spoilercast about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, which unlocks a classic Chris Rant­. And then we watch the main feature, discussing the impact of The Real Ghostbusters, what you want from a sequel, the bad vibes that come from good vibes, and I think our third passionate defence of Peter Venkman.

Next week, it's Alex's birthday pick, Cyborg!
