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 53 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with Classics and Hidden Gems. It's a 40th Anniversary edition in which our featured films are from 1984. For our classic it turns out Alan has never seen Footloose, to our great shock. We break down this iconic teen movie about Kevin Bacon changing the world through the medium of dance. Then for our Hidden Gem we shed some light on a science fiction sequel people need to see, 2010, the underrated sequel to Kubrick's 2001.
The latest Double Reel Monthly is out already for you to download, and next week we'll bring you the Remakes Tribunal where we put bad filmmaking on trial.
