Spielbergpod - The Steven Spielberg Film Podcast

Recorded back in the summer over an afternoon drink or two, Paul and I discuss the follow-up film to 'The Force Awakens', Rian Johnson's 'The Last Jedi' (or 'Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi' to give it its full title).

In this solo episode I discuss the film 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'. In doing so I complain about the lack of Jeff Goldblume, I compare the film to 'The Lost World', I try to break down the character arcs of Owen and Claire and I rank the Jurassic films.

In this bonus episode, Kieran and I discuss the new Marvel blockbuster 'Avengers: Infinity War'. We break this chat into two halves, the first being spoiler free, the second talking about spoilers from the film - including our thoughts on what comes next. We also discuss the 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' trailer.

In this episode Kieran and I discuss the new Spielberg blockbuster - 'Ready Player One'. Our chat is divided in two halves, the first is spoiler free and the second we get a bit deeper and discuss some of the big reveals, etc. from the film. Along the way you can expect chat about Harry Potter, we desperately try to get M&Ms to sponsor the show, we talk about Alex Zane and much much more.

In this short, almost spoiler free episode (I do mention the final shots of the film), I discuss the new Steven Spielberg film, 'The Post' starring Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep and a million familiar faces from the world of TV. Along the way I discuss 'All the President's Men', attending the European premiere of the film (I know!), journalistic integrity in the 21st century and more. 

Several bottles of red wine later, long into the night, Paul, Kieran and myself sat down to discuss the films 'Prometheus' and 'Alien Covenant'. And we had a lot to discuss.

In this bonus episode Kieran and I discuss the 2016 musical romance, 'La La Land' starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. Along the way we discuss 'Whiplash', 'Grand Piano', The OC, The Glee Project (does anyone still remember Glee?) and we debut a new feature..... Masterclass.

On this episode Paul and I challenge each other to name our top five characters from films directed by beardy legend, Steven Spielberg. Expect quotes, impressions and two people who can't remember the name of the guy who played the policeman in Jaws.

In which Kieran and I discuss the idea of a Spielberg anthology TV series in the mould of the JJ Abrahams-Steven King show 'Castle Rock'. With mixed results.

In this episode me and Kieran discuss the possible forthcoming films of Steven Spielberg. Along the way we discuss the likes of Ready Player One, Robopocalypse, some film starring Jennifer Lawrence, The Post, Indy 5 and all manner of weird and wonderful possible movies. We also plug our other show 'Easy Riders Raging Podcasts' about the films of the 1960s. A podcast well worth your time and attention.

In this episode me and my friend Paul say farewell for now to Steven Spielberg as we discuss his most recent film to date, 'The BFG'. We also discuss the books of Roald Dahl (and the art of Quentin Blake), the Queen meeting James Bond back in the 2012 Olympics, the animated version of The BFG and compare this film to a tonne of Spielberg films from E.T to Schinder's List. Oh, and we preview my new film podcast- Easy Riders Raging Podcast. A podcast where we will be discussing the films of the 60's one at a time. Available now from iTunes and all good podcatchers everywhere.

In this episode me and my friend Campbell discuss the film 'Jurassic World'. Along the way we discuss Chris Pratt, celebrity sightings, Limp Bizkit, Westworld, 'heelgate', the brilliance of John Williams, what we have heard about Jurassic World 2 and much more.

In this episode me and my friend Paul discuss the Steven Spielberg film 'Bridge of Spies'. Along the way we talk about mob mentality, 20th century history (and events from this we'd like to see Spielberg tackle next), Mark Rylance, the Cold War, The West Wing (as ever) and much more. Oh, and that film we couldn't think of. It's 'J. Edgar' (which was directed by Clint Eastwood- and not Martin Scorsese).

MAYBE IT'S A RUSSIAN THING. In this festive bonus episode we complete our coverage of the Die Hard films with the fifth in that series: 'A Good Day to Die Hard'. Along the way we talk about the Police Academy films, different versions of this film, Bruce Willis' appearance in the TV show Friends, the films of Jai Courtney, along with what we want/ what we expect from Die Hard 6.

In this bonus episode me and my friend Jev continue our week of Die Hard coverage by discussing 'Live Free or Die Hard' (AKA Die Hard 4.0).

In this bonus episode we continue our festive romp through the Die Hard franchise as me and my friend Kieran discuss the film 'Die Hard With A Vengeance'. Along the way we talk about the best onscreen villains, the career of Samuel L. Jackson, we big up our German fans and we talk about eggs. And how they should/ shouldn't be consumed.  

In this seasonal bonus episode me and my friend Paul discuss the film Die Hard 2: Die Harder. Along the way we do impressions, talk terrible dialogue, we discuss Rene Harlin films, phoning in sick to work and get into an Amy Adams-off.

Happy Christmas Spielberg fans! To celebrate the season we're breaking precisous continuity and doing a week of episodes on the Die Hard series. To kick things off, me and my friend Jake discuss the classic- Die Hard. Along the way we discuss our favourite Christmas films, the career of Alan Rickman, musicals we have seen on the stage, chocolate bars, the biggest hits of the 90's (and ponder Bieber covering them) and much, much more. Expect quotes, impressions, singing and terrible (pun-based) spin-off ideas.
