15: Cinderella (2021)
This week we are talking about the Cinderella adaptation no one asked for. Which is appropriate because no one asked us to talk about it either! We've got a real mish-mash cast with Camilla Cabello at the head as Gen Z Cinderella in a completely undetermined time period, singing arbitrarily…

Bonus: Blooper Reel (Part 1?)
Just like when filming a movie, recording a podcast is bound to have some outtakes. So enjoy this little blooper of us realizing my 18 year old cat lit himself on fire, and the aftermath. For the record this has happened probably 4 times in his 18 years, he's like a moth to a flame.

09: Cruella
Disney has done it again, dedicating an entire movie to a psychopathic dog kidnapper (I would say dog killer but spoiler alert the dogs get away and live happily ever after, phew.) They said how can we have a quirky, spirited, rebellious lead and completely rewrite the unspeakable acts we know…

08: Rocketman
In this very special episode, we are talking about Sam's number one favourite movie to celebrate the first anniversary of her 29th birthday :) After watching the musical biopic of the legendary Elton John, we fawn over the music, the costumes, and the actors. Seriously, there's a lot of raving...

Episode 04: Star Wars A New Hope
May the fourth (episode) be with you. This week's movie is so far up Sam's alley, it's her home address. This week's movie is so distant from Maria's alley, its in a galaxy far, far away. The first installment of the movie series that changed generations of movie lovers, brought in literally...

03: The 41st Razzies Awards
