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 40 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with our regular Features episode. In our Classics and Recommended feature we look at the hugely influential 50s western Rio Bravo; our Hidden Gem is Tom Cruise's comparatively underseen American Made; The One That Got Away looks at British auteur John Boorman's failed attempt to make a live action version of Lord of the Rings in the 1970s; our Remake Hatewatch demolishes the execrable 2011 version of Conan the Barbarian; and to top it off we ask for Last Action Hero to be remade better this time.
Next week we'll bring you the latest Big Conversation, where we pitch ideas for the next big blockbuster. Our regular Double Reel Monthly for August is already available to download.
