News & Reviews: The Platform

I don't even know what to say about this one, I guess Andy is cool and funny and I'm just an old stick in the mud.

Whoooosh!

Welcome to the thrilling conclusion of Feb-weather-uary, where we discuss the 1996 blockbuster 'Twister' in anticipation of the upcoming legacy sequel 'Twisters', we discuss what we like and what we don't like about the original as well as proposing what could possibly happen in the sequel and whether it's going to be a redo of Top Gun Maverick with no Tom Cruise. 

Watch out for that cow guys! 

We return to review action this week and finally the armistice has been broken (and perhaps then been renewed confusingly.

Reviews of the following recent and less recent releases are included 

The Iron Claw, My Friend Lanre, Lift, Orion and the Dark, Migration, Destroy All Neighbours & Wish

Welcome to Febweatheruary, the shortest (and stormiest) month of the year!

We kick off this month of weather based movie content with a whistlestop tour through a bunch of big weather based disaster movies and give our opinions of how we think we would be best equipped to survive the events within.

True insane energy to this episode so strap in!

Well well well, look what we have here... 

It's a bumper edition of News & Reviews with Even More Alex (TM), we bring you an almighty 8 reviews this week with Alex responsible for 7 of them solo. Andy's on his armistice (more on that in episode) and therefore the balance is shifted to mostly Alex with reviews of...  ghost story romance 'All Of Us Strangers', powerful drama 'The Zone of Interest', Oscar hopeful 'The Holdovers', satire 'American Fiction', science fiction black comedy 'Poor Things', 'Samsara' a meditation on life, death and new life, deadpan supernatural comedy 'The Civil Dead' & the DCEU's unflushable shit 'Aquaman 2'

Coming a week later than originally planned and in a much truncated format, it's the annual Dinosaur Man awards for the films of 2023!

We dish out an apology and then summarise why we didn't release this episode on time. Andy and Alex spend a little while talking about which films went home with our big prizes when we got together with Paul last weekend. 

As is now tradition, we return to action with  an early episode for this year being the annual Dinosaur Man Draft! We find out how well our picks from last year performed before selecting our choices for the forthcoming year. This episode has it all, indefinite delays, Madame Web blind faith, a discussion of which animated fourquel will perform best and much much more! 

Join in with the fun and select your choices for the upcoming critical and or commercial successes in this new year of movie making!

Alex is sick so its the perfect time for Andy to hand out his awards for games he has played this year. Are they games that came out in 2023? Mostly no. But did Andy play them in 2023? Yes.

So come see if you agree with the winners of such awards as "The Game I'm Definitely Coming Back To This Year"

Let us know on Twitter/X what wins your game of the year @DinosaurMan15

It's that most wonderful time of the year where we bring you a bumper review show packed full of all the releases we've caught during our winter break.

Covering such wide ranging films as 'The Plains', 'Knock At The Cabin', 'Gran Turismo' & 'Godzilla Minus One'. There really is something for everyone in this monster sized episode so let us welcome you into the new year with this final round up of 2023 releases.

Well this is Christmas... eve. We made it folks, another year down and we bring you a little stocking stuffer ahead of the new year starting. 

Andy puts to Alex the ultimate question, how would you survive the events of 'The Santa Clause'? If you're expecting a food heavy answer you're in luck! We bring you this final grab bag of nonsense before the last episode of 2023 next week. 

Happy holidays from the DinosaurMen to you and yours.
