Mad Men - ‘The Forecast’ review

A storm is coming - a storm of existential angst that is!

That’s right, WHINECAST is returning once again to the hallowed offices of Sterling Cooper Pooper Trooper and this week we’re dealing with an episode that’s firing on ALL the cylinders. Joan is preparing to go on a five year mission to seek out new lifeforms. Don is pondering where he’s been over the last ten years - and where he’s going. But. most importantly, we have the belated and much heralded return of Creepy Glenn, and this time he’s back to claim every last bit of Betty’s hair, presumably to weave some form of shield to protect him from VC bullets in his upcoming holiday in Vietnam.

Has Don ever been more than just a pretty face? Can Kieran Shipka get any more hilarious? Will Ted be able to finish his entire doughnut before rushing off to another casting couch? All these questions and many, many more will be answered, as we review ‘The Forecast’!

‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ review

Bloated. Overlong. Bursting with too many concepts and tangents.

But that’s not Jim Whedon’s ‘Age of Ultron’, it’s WHINECAST’s epic review of the greatly anticipated sequel that brings back together everyone’s favourite superhero team (for all of three years) - THE AVENGERS! Yes, the time is finally upon us and after a monster build up in which we’ve looked at every bloody instalment in the bloody Marvel Bloody Cinematic Universe it’s now time to sit down and take a good hard look at the second instalment in Marvel’s crown jewel franchise.

Can the film possibly live up to its universally admired predecessor? Will familiarity breed contempt? Or will Jim Whedon soar through the sky like Iron Man/War Machine/Thor/The Vison/Falcon/Other, rising to the occasion and delivering a follow up that makes us laugh, cry and have ALL the emotions? There’s only one way to find out, so strap on your colostomy bag for a review that could be charitably described as ‘comprehensive’!

Mad Men- 'Severance' & 'New Business'

Pow! Thwack!

It’s a 'Mad Men' double punch!

That’s right, due to holidays, illnesses and plain old-fashioned LIFE, we’d had to delay our reviews for the start of the newest and final-ist season of Matty Weiner’s sometimes 60s based drama. But these disgusting distractions are far behind us now, and we’re here with two commentary/reviews for episodes eight and nine of season 7 - ‘Severance’ and ‘New Business’.

Will Betty become Surgeon General? Will Ginsberg get that promotion? Will Salvatore announce the New Deal? All these questions and many more will be answered, or addressed, or not - as we dive back into the world of 'Sterling Cooper Draper Later Skater' for one final run of episodes - and we suspect it’s going to be quite a ride!

The Final Season Part 1 on Blu Ray!

The Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up - 'Guardians of the Galaxy'

So! The biggest A-holes in the galaxy bring the long running Mash-up to a close with their 'Guardians of the Galaxy' commentary. In the final entry in the Mash-up before Josie Windale brings us the runaway hit that will be 'Age Of Ultron' we discuss Marvel’s biggest risk to date (not counting the hiring of the most electrifying man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Robert Downey Jnr). With James Gunn at the helm would 'Guardians' be another triumph in Marvel's production line of hits, or the first stinker in the MCU?

With a line up including a Lord, a destroyer, a tree, a raccoon and an assassin whore, this film managed to surprisingly bring joy and excitement to our cinema screens, and after a parade of critical and financial success it’s the job of the WHINECAST boyz to work out whether this was just a flash in the pan or a true gem to marvel at for years to come.

So, for one last time, we strap ourselves in for a ride through the galaxy on that ever so comfortable barrel the Mr Feige has us over!
