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 47 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the Features, and for this issue we are focusing on East Asian cinema. Our Classics and Recommended is the notorious Takashi Miike psychological horror Audition, followed by our Hidden Gem the Korean cold war thriller Steel Rain. Our One that Got Away discusses how legendary filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai spent years nearly making international spy thriller The Lady From Shanghai with Nicole Kidman, and our Remake Hatewatch is the ill-advised US remake of Oldboy. As a treat at the end we discuss how we'd like to see a remake of one of the ninja films of the 80s.
Our latest Double Reel Monthly and Penalty Shootout Film Quiz are out now, and our Big Conversation will be out in a week's time.
