The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So are his co hosts: James Adamson, his imaginatively named son, and Alan Bayles, a sci fi author, fellow film nerd and fellow Sunderland fan. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we’re fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into classic films we haven't seen yet and overlooked hidden gems you need to see, ask remakes to justify their existence or be wiped from history and offer parole hearings to bad films that need to be remade to fix their flaws.

Issue 34 of the monthly magazine podcast the discerning film nerd continues, with the second weekly drop of our top film content. This week it's our regular features including: Classics and Recommended: James (no the other one) finally gets round to watching Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri having been put off for years by a previous bad experience with this director's work; Hidden Gem: We remind people that Tony Scott and Denzel Washington did another collaboration, the lesser known but striking and unusual sci fi thriller Deja Vu; The One That Got Away: in which we discuss how Frank Miller's bonkers graphic novel Elektra: Assassin was nearly made into a film by Oliver Stone, based on a Jim McBride script; And the Remake Hatewatch: where we ask why the 1993 version of The Three Musketeers was made at all, and also express our wish for someone to do a remake of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen only better this time. The first part of this month's episode is out already, and our final part the Big Conversation will be released next week.
