The Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up - 'The Dark Knight Rises'

Mglepghh! Hmnuh! Bhmm!

Yes, it's true, a fire is rising beneath the Mash-up this month, as we skip away from Marvel's jovial barrage of primary colours and return to some of that DC dank despair - this time being stewarded by Chrissy Nolan as he attempts to conclude his take on The Bat Man.


Now, 'The Dark Knight Rises' is a big movie. Whichever way you look at it. Big ambitions, big set pieces, big running time. So it only seems appropriate that to deal with Chrissy Nolo's epic of epicness, WHINECAST ups the ante and delivers what we *think* is our longest podcast ever. May God have mercy on us all.


But hopefully, you'll think the length is justified, as there's frankly so damn much in this film to talk about, a thousand topics. But naturally, the key topic that we need to address, the question that needs to be answered, the one we've been asking ourselves since 2012 - is it any good? Aside from the hype, the expectation, the arses leaning over bikes - does the film actually work outside of its gargantuan release hoopla?

'Interstellar' review

It feels pretty damn strange for us to be doing a review not connected to a prior franchise at this point. The past few months have been a parade of entries assigned to long running franchises and it's kind of a relief to be reviewing something which isn't part of an established franchise.


Clearly Christopher Nolan feels the same way, as he's used his directorial clout to command a mighty budget - but will the audience be getting our money's worth?


Join us as we sit down to discuss one of the last big releases of the year, a film that's done everything it can to be as secretive as possible at every turn. Will this pay off? Will the film take us to infinity and beyond? Tune into the WHINECAST review to find out!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'Death in Heaven'

Inconceivable!

Yep, although it feels approximately ten minutes since we were sat in the cinema to watch the CAPALDO debut with Deep Breath, it's apparently 12 or so weeks later, because here we are at the finale!


Carrying on form the distinctly Murky Water seen in last week's cracking episode we're faced with an extended 55-minute conclusion to the first 'Master' story in five years. But will this extended running time result in the episode having more room to breathe than certain other Moffat conclusions (we're looking at you, 'Wedding of River Song')?


More importantly, will this be the cherry on the cake of a strong freshman year for CAPALDO, or an unfortunate conclusion to an otherwise enjoyable run? Will Clara (aka Wideface) survive the series? Will The Master have a plan that makes the least bit of sense?


Find out - in the new Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast- 'Dark Water'

Well!


That was an uneventful episode, wasn't it? LOLZ JK, it was totally action packed. With it being the first part of the two part finale, it's hard to know how careful to be on the old spoilers front, as we on the podcast would hate to be responsible for ruining any surprises for folk - but what we will say is that the podcast itself is as spoilerific as it comes, so for Lord's sake, don't listen to a word of our ramblings until you've seen the episode through to the very end (as if you would).

Spoilers aside, we had a hell of a part one to enjoy this week, with the show taking some chances in choosing to tackle some pretty horrific subjects head on, maybe more so than ever before.


How it will all play out is anyone's guess at this point (possibly including Moffat), but one thing's for sure, Capaldi's first series is having a conclusion to remember!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'In The Forrest of the Night'

If you go down to the woods to the woods tonight you're in a for a big surprise - because there's an eccentric Scotsman loudly enthusing about trees to anyone who'll listen!


Yep, it's the last episode of the series before the two part finale kicks off its inevitable fireworks and in the meantime, it's time for some housekeeping, as the Doctor has let them weeds get right out of hand! So, we're armed with a hell of a concept, more wavey hands than even Matt Smith would approve of and the terror that is inherent in dealing with both children AND animals!


We might be a bit late with our review this week (we have social lives, honest!), but we had a blast joining Capaldo and Wideface in the Night Garden, so we hope you'll brush the vines aside, find a spare patch of soil and help us uncover one mother of an insurance scam!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'Flatline'

Welcome back, Whovians!

Yep, CAPALDI's freshman year marches on relentlessly and this week we're treated to what is almost certainly the 'Doctor Light' episode of the year, but one that's executed in a particularly ingenious way. Though the question is did the unusual format lift this week's episode high, or did things fall FLAT?


One thing's for certain, if the episode didn't rock your boat, it's not for lack of content. We've got Clara taking on the role of The Doctor generating both LOLZ and pushing her towards her almost certain exit in the finale, we've got interesting visual effects coming out of our arse and we've got the world's most unpleasant man (The Twelfth Doctor) getting on his high horse about Wideface telling a few porky pies!


One more thing, listeners - please note that from around 45 minutes onwards we talk about the widely publicised presence of a certain villain in this year's finale. Now, although this information was all over the Internet and the BBC's own Who material, you may well not know about things, so please do proceed with caution!

The Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up - ‘The Avengers’

This is a big one, ladies and gentlemen!


Yep, the Mash-up has spent the last few months well and truly immersed in Marvel’s Cinematic Universe getting to know a whole new family of characters. In reality, the largest test a family gathering can endure is Christmas dinner, but this is The Fictions, so we’re going to be witnessing something almost as traumatic - intergalactic invasion!


Yes, the MCU’s Phase One is coming to an end with an almighty smash and the WHINECAST boys aren’t going to be shying away from the hard topics - do logic problems matter when you’re having a damn good time? Should Robert Downey Jnr be allowed to wield so much power? Could ScarJo’s hips get any more amaze balls?


Tune into this month’s Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up to get the answer to these burning questions - and many many more!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast- 'Mummy on the Orient Express'

All aboard!

Yes, it's time for yet another entry in the Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast and this time we are taking to the stars for Doctor Who's reimagining of 'Under Siege 2' - 'Mummy on the Orient Express'!



There's ALL kinds of stuff cracking off this week, from fabulous dresses, teleporting mummies, transforming trains and the most truly alarming villain a person can ever face - a mystery shopper.


But do all these cooks spoil the broth? Are we delivered a tasty stew or a salmonella soup? Most importantly, can Clara pull off a bob? Find out the answer to all these questions and several more - in this week's Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'Kill the Moon'

Is it Easter already? The answer, of course, is no. But it is time for another eggs-cellent adventure for Capaldo and Wideface as they take to space once again, this time deciding to bring a young girl with them, a girl who can't possibly give informed consent for the terrifying trials she's expected to take part in!


But, despite the obvious mega lolz inherent in that, things aren't all smooth sailing in the TARDIS. Indeed, rumours are swirling that Clara might think the Doctor is 'a bit of a prick'. So, is it true, or should Clara just stop running her mouth off and learn her place?


Join the WHINECAST boys as we take the TARDIS gang to couples counselling and ask - will they stay together for the kids?

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'The Caretaker'

Ah, school days are the best days of your life - or so they say - and that's clearly the case for well renowned time traveller Doctor 'The Doctor' Who , as he's chosen to go back there and fight the forces of evil with just his wits and a broom!


So, after last week's relatively disappointing episode, will Capaldo strike back to prove that he has ALWAYS been the caretaker here? Well, signs are on his side. He's teaming up with romantic duo Wideface and Pinko, he's wearing his horrible spangly jumper, and his laying down surveillance equipment with the enthusiasm that only an old loner maintenance man truly can.


But with all these positive signs, does the episode deliver? Are the LOLZ many and varied? Find out, with this week's Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast!
