Podcast 233: The Crow (1994)
by Mc on Apr.17, 2024, under Podcasts
Giving up any pretense of keeping up with current releases, Gavin and Iain delve into 1994’s The Crow on our latest podcast. Starring the late Brandon Lee and directed by Alex Proyas this is such a formative movie for us it’s amazing we’ve not covered it before. Having not seen it in a few years, can it possibly stand up to today’s modern movie standards?
Is there room for the original to be improved upon by the upcoming remake starring Bill SkarsgÃ¥rd (spoilers: that’s a big fat no!).
Join us as we discuss our feelings on the film, what makes it stand out to us today, our love of the mazing cast and a taste of what we might be doing in future.

Podcast 231: Johnny Mnemonic in Black and White
by admin on May.29, 2023, under Podcasts
McYapAndFries tries something a little different this week as we revisit 1995’s Johnny Mnemonic in Black and White!
After only hearing about this newish version of the cyberpunk “classic” recently, Iain and Gavin had to get their hands on a copy to check it out. And it was cheap!.
Join us on this week’s podcast as we revisit the nightmare cyberpunk future of…. 2021!??
Directed by Robert Longo, written by cyberpunk legend William Gibson and starring McYapandFries favourite Keanu Reeves as Johnny himself, we really didn’t know what to expect with this one but were pleasantly surprised!
Also on the show Gavin and Iain chat about Willow leaving Disney+, the latest shenanigans in Hollywood and we experience a little confusion over what actually happened at the end of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood before diving deep into the Keanu Reeves “Classicâ€.
If you enjoyed the show (or have thoughts on the movie, in color or Black and white) or have other VHS classics you’d like us to revisit(Brainscan! Surviving The Game) you can contact us via the usual social media networks:
