'The Dark Knight' commentary

This month, we welcome you to a world without rules, as it's finally time to return to the clutches of the DC family and into the filthy embrace of Chrissy Nolan, as we look back at 'The Dark Knight'.


It's hard to imagine Batman now without this film being in our consciousness, but we try and cast our minds back to 2008, when various parts of Gotham were blowing up like party poppers and mad laughter was echoing from theatre to theatre.


Obviously it's hard to think of this film without Ledger's Joker springing to mind, but the film is stuffed to the gills with great performances, interesting set pieces and barbecued flesh. What we advise is to sit yourself down, pour yourself a healthy amount of brown liquid and let the WHINECAST boys put a smile on that face!

'The Incredible Hulk' commentary

Well, we didn't like him when he was Ang Lee, so will we take to him this time?


Yep, the Mash-up is striking back this month as we cast our gaze towards the second film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the semi-oddity that is 'The Incredible Hulk'. Arguably the black sheep of the Marvel family, here we have a film that had significant disputes behind the scenes involving star Ed Norton, director Louis Leterrier and the bigwigs over at Marvel who, wishing to avoid the ponderous tone of the widely criticised 2003 'Hulk', wanted to bring home a lean, action packed adventure that would reinstate the Hulk in the minds of cinema goers en masse.


So, who won in the big dispute (I think you can guess) ? Does the film shake off the shackles of the Ang Lee/Eric Bana attempt? To put it simply, is it Hulk Smash...or Hulk Gash?

Find out - with the Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up!

WHINECAST- 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' review

We ALL know the Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up, right? Well, get ready for the Proper Amazing Casts Mash-up!


Yep, we've got critical darlings and box office goliaths spilling out all over the place this week, as the X-Men franchise returns to our screens with 'Days of Future Past', taking the beloved cast from the original trilogy and smashing them together with the Sex and Talent team that is the First Cast ensemble.


Combine that with the return of original director and alleged playa Bryan Singer, plus the adaptation of a much loved comics storyline and we've got the potential for something very special indeed. But can the film deliver? Is the huge cast ably serviced? Does the franchise continue its slow slog towards redemption? Will they explain why Xavier is alive?


SO many questions and, we can assure you, SOME of them will be answered in the below podcast!

WHINECAST - 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2 ' review

Hey there, Spider-friends!

Can it really be two years since Andrew Garfield first flew through the air with the greatest of ease, quipping and thwipping with the best of 'em, in the process delivering a reboot of the cinematic Spidey franchise that thrilled and bored various audiences in equal measure? Well, it must be, 'cos they've gone made another one! Imagine!



But, can returning director Marc Webb turn, what was for many, the 'pleasantly enjoyable Spider-Man' into the truly 'AMAZO' Spider-Man? Well, we can say one thing, he's certainly not going to be hanged for lack of ambition: we got ourselves some romance, some comedy, some bromance, some comedy, and an arguable roster of villains in the mix (and God knows that didn't hurt 'Spider-Man 3'...) - in other words, we got ourselves a stew, Baby.



But is it the kind of stew that sets up a whole cinematic universe of movies for Sony to ruthlessly pummel cinemas in the same way Marvel has carpet bombed the public into submission? Or the kind of stew that leaves you retching and gagging, shivering on the toilet and wishing you were dead?



There's only one way to know for sure and that's to let WHINECAST tell you how to think and feel!

'Iron Man' commentary

Goodness!

After almost a year of podcasting about the various antics of the caped crusader and that bloke of steel, we're finally ready to put some Marvel into this Marvel Vs DC Mash-up!



Yep, we're kicking off the next stage of the project by turning our eyes to the very first instalment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, when The Avengers was but a hopeful dream and we all had endured fewer Loki fangirls. But before we get there, we have the curious first entry, Jon Favreu's 'Iron man', a 2008 release that took a comparatively lesser known character like Tony Stark and brought him up to the very biggest of leagues, kicking off a series of films that continue to pummel us relentlessly.



So, sit down with a fine brandy, possibly a cigar, and get ready to fiddle about with things in your workshop until you've got yourself the makings of a leviathan cinematic franchise!

Goats in the Machine' turns their eyes skyward!

Good day to you!

The mash-up is about to leave behind ol' Supes for some time, but before we do, our good friends and possible alcoholics @RJBayley and @niallheseltine are going to be casting their eyes over Bryan Singer's 2006 entry 'Superman Returns'.

But they're not taking on this task alone, oh no! This time, they're bringing @EyesSkyward with them for the journey, a handsome, cultured chap who also coincidentally happens to be a real, genuine Superman-ologist!

Enough jibber jabber, press play on this bad boy and prepare to go Up, Up and Away!

'Superman Returns' Review

'Apparently Ranty' analyses what happens when a Superb Man returns!

Hey, Kids!

Our good friend @proroan is back to take a look at 2006's 'Superman Returns', the film that was intended to reignite an audience's love for the man of steel on a scale that would challenge Chrissy Nolan's rebooted Batman from just a year earlier.

Where did it succeed? Where did it fail?

Let @proroan tell you!
