What happens when you bring together one of the most beloved films of all time, two rational fans and one arsey git? Episode 38 of Tangents entertained. (Poor joke from Paul the Arsey one of the episode) In truth though this is why we love films and TV shows that three people can sit in-front of the same piece and all take something different from the experience. As always for our Dissections we begin with a non-spoiler intro but from there on in things will get delved into in depth.

Everybody needs somebody to....Watch the Blues Brothers with. It's a short statement but honestly if you have someone or not then the Blues Brothers is a film you should watch NOW! To explain why Mark, Paul and James get around the Hangout that YouTube created and look back at this iconic film. Don't worry we don't give a free pass on everything. As always for our reviews we begin with a non-spoiler intro but from there on in things will get delved into in depth.

Thor is back and this time he's brought his work buddy James. Sorry by Thor I meant Mark. The two cinema amigos have been to see Thor three times between the tow of them and will now delve into the God of Thunder to see if it really is as good/bad as Mark said in his review. As always for our reviews we begin with a non-spoiler intro but from there on in things will get delved into in depth.

Prequels, Sequels and all that Jazz have had a bit of a mixed reception of late. The concern of this episode is however what reception did the TE team give to the return of Deckard in Blade Runner 2049? Alex and Mark are joined by our always welcome and special guest Jon (minus the jacket we all think he should buy) to cover all things Blade Runneresque. As always for our reviews we begin with a non-spoiler intro but from there on in things will get delved into in depth. Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining. ![]()

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!!!!!!! Anyway the world has been righted as Alex, Mark James and Paul talk about this classic from 1987 and dissect it from beginning to end so expect Spoilers from pretty early on. 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. James and Mark review the film after going to see the release with Alex joining to take a brief look back at the first film. Thank you for listening and as always may all your tangents be entertaining. ![]()

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. ![]()

Or just the three of us coming out of the film last Friday night?
You decide.
Ahead of one of the biggest releases of the year we thought it would be fun to look back at the first film and the impact it made. With the help of our Special Guest Jon, Mark and Paul chat Guardians of the Galaxy amongst other things as you probably have come to expect. So sit back and enjoy an hour of podcasting goodness. You can also listen standing up or doing anything you fancy. ![]()

In Episode 2 Mark (H) and Paul take on the recent run of DC Movies and talk about both the positives and negatives as they see them. It'a a lively chat as the two don't exactly see eye to eye. ![]()
