Very sad. I had, only this week, revisited all the podcasts and was up to date the moment "goodnight goodnight" was released. I hope that the inference of there being "special event" episodes was not merely my hoping. Will endeavour to be more active in the forum. For every comment that made me scowl or scoff there were 10 that made me guffaw - thanks!

OK, I have an Excellent suggestion:

"Meet The Robinson's"(2007)

Not only is it some of the BEST animation to ever come out of Walt Disney Animation Studios,
but gives any Pixar film a run for its money(The Chrome and Paint on the Time Machine is insane)

The Characters are awesome, plenty of catch-it-or-you-miss-it humor, and a kick ass Time Travel
story.

It's hands down one of my all time Favorite Disney Movies.

when I first read this - mis read it and thought you meant 'Meet the Applegates' and got confused . . . . that might make for a good episode

Yes - that's the best thing to come from the book!

Dredd was good - Harry Potter too. Bizarrely I prefer it when you're all enthusiastic about a movie. The energy is palpable when it's positive. There's a lot to be said about the comms when you're not so happy. The last air bender comm made me try and watch the film, however, the thing that wasn't covered was what ultimately made me give up 20mins in. That was that the acting was utterly unconvincing. So much ham it was oinkbelievable!

The evaporating people were cool? I, personally, think a boring film made from a boring book (just my opinion) makes it an effective adaptation. The 50's film took the most compelling aspect of the book minus a few characters and concepts that I don't remember working very well anyway.

Quite enjoying American Horror Story at the moment. Just started firefly after 3 failed attempts - decided in the end to just skip the train robbery one and enjoying it much more.
