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.

Episode 38 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the regular Features and this month's animation theme. Our Classics and Recommended film is 1988's anime masterpiece Akira; the Hidden Gem is the Iron Giant which became a family favourite but was hardly seen on its theatrical release; the One That Got Away is the story of how A Princess Of Mars nearly became the first ever animated feature film; the Remake Hatewatch is of the execrable 1992 version of Tom and Jerry; and we also have a Remake Restoration where we suggest a film that needs a remake because it didn't work as well as it could have. Next week we bring you the Big Conversation about the Golden Age of Animated Films. The first part of this month's issue Double Reel Monthly is already available now.
