Film Night Podcast

This week the lads are joined by returning guest, Matthew Philip Michael ‘Tepi’ Mclaughlin, as we review a film he has long requested, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. The boys also give their thoughts on whether the third instalment of Guardians of the Galaxy will be worth a watch and Richie lets us know if his opinion of Free Fire has changed on his most recent rewatch.

We’re getting to a point in which these violent rants about our hatred of the Inferi-Oscars, given alongside our own unoriginally quasi-ironic version of them, are reaching levels of hypocrisy that even our big words and pseudo-intellectuality can’t save us. Nevertheless, we really hate the Oscars. Please enjoy the Film Night Oscars 2022!
