In this episode we right some rather outrageous wrongs as three quarters of the cast had not seen Rob Reiner's classic. Not only that but one of us does not know the infamous Inigo Montoya quote!!!!!!!

​Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining.

On this episode we jump into our Movie Time Machine to the wild year of 1997 to take a look at a Luc Besson classic in The Fifth Element.

A film close to Alex's heart was a must dissect for us mostly just to see how he would defend this most odd of movies.Paul is along for the ride this week.

​Between them they manage to look at not only the films of Luc Besson but throw some random tangents in as well as some rather spiffing anecdotes.

​​​​Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining.

The Kingsman series returns after its stellar first outing. Mark Millar's comic series has shown it could make the jump to the silver screen with as much renown as his previous hit Kick Ass.

​​​Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining.

Tonight we begin to dissect one of the foremost trilogies in modern film, Christopher Nolan's take on Batman.

Expect spoilers and a rather impassioned discussion as we get to grips with this rather unique film in the superhero genre.

​Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining.

In this episode we take a look at The Expanse season 2 a recent arrival on to Netflix in the UK.

We previously covered the first season in episode 13 so feel free to listen there before venturing into our season 2 coverage.

As always we begin with a non-spoiler intro but from there on in things get a bit Portoish.

We hope you enjoy the show.

May all your Tangents be Entertaining.

Alex, Mark and Paul fall one person short this week as they are covering the awesome foursome that are the Defenders.

​

Mark and Paul discuss the first episode of the truncated Season 7 of Game of Thrones, Expect spoilers from the outset

In this episode we jump back into a focus episode though this time it looks at the stand out performances of one central character. This show is dedicated to the wonderful Sigourney Weaver and Amy, Mark and Paul bring their choices for her top showings in a myriad of films.

​Wait till the end and you will hear the dying cries of one of the hosts.

On this rather timely episode of Tangents Entertained Mark has literally just finished watching Spider-Man Homecoming and tries to talk Paul into going to see it.

This is basically a a fan of Spidey trying to convince a take it or leave person into why this is the film to go see this weekend.

At the start we will not utter a spoiler but will announce at the half way mark when the spoilers will begin. So sit back as the talk all things Spidey including Spider-Man Homecoming.

Today 3 become four as we have a special guest on the show in Amy. She joins us to talk all about the Harry Potter film series. Expect spoilers from the outset as we point out some of the reasons why we generally adore this series (apart from Mark that is).

The reasoning behind the episode choice was of course the 20th Anniversary of the release of Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone and the fact we ​generally adore this series (apart from Mark that is).

On episode 13 Alex has finally become one of us and is now a regular host. To celebrate this not only does he get to take the lead on the episode but he also chose the subject matter namely The Expanse.

The SyFy (why would you name a TV channel this)  production is an interesting watch and brings up some mixed opinions among the boys. So sit back and listen to their thoughts and as always we have a spoiler free 5 minutes at the start to give you our thoughts on whether to watch or not. So don't be worried about spoilers until we say.

On this weeks show we get to look at our favourite episodes of Game of Thrones. Alex, Mark and Paul have different choices and this leads to differing views on the merits of each episode however one thing they all have in common is a love what surely is one of the best TV shows of all time.

​Beware Spoilers throughout.

When it comes to films with a lot riding on them not many can compare to Wonder Woman. Not only was dealing with the dubious nature of recent DCEU movie outings but it is also the first Superhero film directed by and starring a woman. These topics are discussed throughout the episode as well as our thoughts on the film itself.

In keeping with our spoiler avoidance policy the first five minutes will be our overall thoughts on the film before we issue a spoiler warning so feel free to listen till that point then come back when you see the film.

​In this episode Paul and Mark delve into their guilty pleasures to bring four films that although they enjoy may be ones to avoid.

We tried to make the films a little obscure but as this was our first attempt at this format we did avoid going truly horrendous (though you may disagree with this statement) in our choices.

So without further ado it's time for our Guilty Pleasure episode take 1.

In this episode we start the first of our Director Focus where we try to judge and ultimately rank the work of \ single director. Today's focus is Robert Zemeckis.

As he has quite a catalogue we brought along a friend of the show Alex to help us dissect the films and come up with a slightly surprising top three.

Anyway we hope you enjoy the show and as always please feel free to leave your feedback on the contacts below.

Following on from Episode 6 Jon, Mark and Paul discuss Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2.

In the interest of fairness the first five minutes is spoiler free so you can listen to our overall impressions. From that point onward we go whole hog into the movie complete with spoilers and of course the obligatory Tangents flow aplenty.

Watch out for our first listener question as well supplied by James and if you have the answer please feel free to reach out on the twitter handles below.
