The Marvel Vs DC Movie Mash-up - 'The Dark Knight Rises'

Mglepghh! Hmnuh! Bhmm!

Yes, it's true, a fire is rising beneath the Mash-up this month, as we skip away from Marvel's jovial barrage of primary colours and return to some of that DC dank despair - this time being stewarded by Chrissy Nolan as he attempts to conclude his take on The Bat Man.


Now, 'The Dark Knight Rises' is a big movie. Whichever way you look at it. Big ambitions, big set pieces, big running time. So it only seems appropriate that to deal with Chrissy Nolo's epic of epicness, WHINECAST ups the ante and delivers what we *think* is our longest podcast ever. May God have mercy on us all.


But hopefully, you'll think the length is justified, as there's frankly so damn much in this film to talk about, a thousand topics. But naturally, the key topic that we need to address, the question that needs to be answered, the one we've been asking ourselves since 2012 - is it any good? Aside from the hype, the expectation, the arses leaning over bikes - does the film actually work outside of its gargantuan release hoopla?

'Interstellar' review

It feels pretty damn strange for us to be doing a review not connected to a prior franchise at this point. The past few months have been a parade of entries assigned to long running franchises and it's kind of a relief to be reviewing something which isn't part of an established franchise.


Clearly Christopher Nolan feels the same way, as he's used his directorial clout to command a mighty budget - but will the audience be getting our money's worth?


Join us as we sit down to discuss one of the last big releases of the year, a film that's done everything it can to be as secretive as possible at every turn. Will this pay off? Will the film take us to infinity and beyond? Tune into the WHINECAST review to find out!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast - 'Death in Heaven'

Inconceivable!

Yep, although it feels approximately ten minutes since we were sat in the cinema to watch the CAPALDO debut with Deep Breath, it's apparently 12 or so weeks later, because here we are at the finale!


Carrying on form the distinctly Murky Water seen in last week's cracking episode we're faced with an extended 55-minute conclusion to the first 'Master' story in five years. But will this extended running time result in the episode having more room to breathe than certain other Moffat conclusions (we're looking at you, 'Wedding of River Song')?


More importantly, will this be the cherry on the cake of a strong freshman year for CAPALDO, or an unfortunate conclusion to an otherwise enjoyable run? Will Clara (aka Wideface) survive the series? Will The Master have a plan that makes the least bit of sense?


Find out - in the new Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast!

The Doctor Who Rewatch Podcast- 'Dark Water'

Well!


That was an uneventful episode, wasn't it? LOLZ JK, it was totally action packed. With it being the first part of the two part finale, it's hard to know how careful to be on the old spoilers front, as we on the podcast would hate to be responsible for ruining any surprises for folk - but what we will say is that the podcast itself is as spoilerific as it comes, so for Lord's sake, don't listen to a word of our ramblings until you've seen the episode through to the very end (as if you would).

Spoilers aside, we had a hell of a part one to enjoy this week, with the show taking some chances in choosing to tackle some pretty horrific subjects head on, maybe more so than ever before.


How it will all play out is anyone's guess at this point (possibly including Moffat), but one thing's for sure, Capaldi's first series is having a conclusion to remember!
