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 brings you the Remakes Tribunal where we put bad filmmaking on trial. Continuing our 40th Anniversary edition of films from 1984, first up we ask whether a remake deserves to exist: (deep breath) Greystoke The Legend of Tarzan Lord of the Apes. Then we offer a Parole Board to a film which failed the first time, and ask if the disastrous big screen version of Supergirl could be redeemed with a remake.
The other two parts of this issue are already out: Double Reel Monthly and Classics and Hidden Gems, and we hope to bring you a Spotlight episode soon.
