006 Little Shop Of Horrors
21/09/2016 Duration: 01h07minJohnny has never seen Little Shop Of Horrors. Andrew has only seen it once. They buy tickets to a 70mm showing and show off about it.

004 Con Air

001 The Burbs
17/08/2016 Duration: 01h10minJohnny Ellis is adamant that he is 'Movie Mad', Andrew Jones is suspicious. In this series opener, Andrew is aghast that Johnny has never seen Joe Dante's satirical horror comedy The 'Burbs. What does Johnny even know about the Tom Hanks vehicle? And will he end up being mad that he watched the movie, or Movie Mad in our weakly constructed premise for movie viewing/discussion that leads to many rabbit holes as all good shows should.
