"Eva!"
Antonio Banderas roared, bathed in a river of flowing water, dancing freely and celebrating the glory and majesty of María Eva Duarte de Perón.
Did Matt, Cass and James feel similarly towards the First Lady of Argentina and this film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Evita?
Does Madonna steal our hearts or only our time? When will Antonio Banderas' Oscar come? Why is Jonathan Price's hairpiece so bad?
This massive movie musical was a box office smash, listen in if we're wanting to smash it.

"I See You"
That's right, for our first episode of 2020, we're doing one of the biggest films of all time, the one that everyone forgot. Folks, welcome back to Pandora.
Matt, Cass and James not only waded into the hyper-blue depths of this 2009 juggernaut, we watched the extended cut, featuring more creatures, more Sigourney and the occasional dodgy CGI shot.
Were the trio charmed by the visit to the Hometree, or were we like Neytiri and we couldn't stop called Jake Sully skxawng (moron)? Listen to find out.

"Would you like to see me make the Jellicle choice?"
It's here Baguettes. The moment you've been waiting for, you've had your Christmas presents but there's one more waiting for you on your podcast feed. Our thoughts on the horrific Lovcraftian Phantasmagoria CATS (2019) by Tom Hooper.
Some of Hollywood's best performers (and Rebel Wilson) star in this nightmare fuel. Don't miss your opportunity to witness it yourself. Our guest, the terrific Patrick Barnes, has seen it twice already!
And remember, a cat is not a dog.

It's part two of our Christmas double with Lucas Neal! Lucas wanted to watch iconic Christmas movie, wholesome and loving with likeable characters and its heart in the right place.
Instead we watched The Family Stone.
The plot follows the Christmas holiday misadventures of the Stone family when the eldest son, (Dermot Mulroney), brings his uptight girlfriend (Sarah Jessica Parker) home with the intention of proposing to her with a cherished heirloom ring. Overwhelmed by the hostile reception, she begs her sister to join her for emotional support, triggering further complications.
Did the team like it or does the teaser poster sum up our thoughts on this movie? 🖕
Listen in to find out and happy holidays Baguettes!

**SPOILER WARNING**
Be warned, we spoil the hell out of Paul Feig's Last Christmas, starring Emilia Clarke and Henry Golding. And we're joined by special guest and Christmas connoisseur Lucas Neal!
Will A Simple Favour from Tom help Kate appreciate the true power of Christmas? Why does he always dress the same? Can you Name The Six?
We dig into this ode to George Michael, penned by Emma Thompson and her husband Greg as we ask ourselves, why isn't there more rom-coms based around Christmas time?

"Tina, pass me the axe."
Happy (belated) Halloween, Baguettes.
Is there anything more iconic that Faye Dunaway giving it her all as Joan Crawford? Matt, Cass and James didn't know because they had not yet witnessed the mesmerising train wreck that is Mommie Dearest (1981), based on Christina Crawford's tell-all memoir published a year after her mother's death.
Find out if they're biffing Crawford and Dunaway or keeping her for good. One things for certain:

To Infinity and beyond? With Nick and Norah and their playlist?
