This week the boys open up a can of whupp-ass on Disney's latest (but not last) live-action adaptation of a beloved animated property, Aladdin. This one is directed by Guy Ritchie and stars a whole bunch of nobodies and Will Smith, but is it any good? Well, the lads have decided not to bother with a non-spoiler section for this review, so you can probably take your cue from that ...
Time Stamps:
Aladdin SPOILER-FILLED review 0:00 - 16:30
Final Thoughts including potential spoilers: 16:30 - 17:45

This week the guys are pitting two legendary directors against one another: David Fincher and Christopher Nolan. Both have directed ten films, both are renowned for being selective with what they take on, and both have left their mark on film in the last 25 years. But who is the superior director? Wayne and Paul are prepared to make the call as they utilise their patented, completely objective, and in no way questionable scoring system to pick a winner based off their list of the top 10 films between both.
So tune in for many cross-ups, some howls of outrage (or "Loooow!" if you prefer), and some extra work from the mixer ... as The Countdown continues.

Something a little different this week as neither off the guys are into Pokemon, meaning they had to get creative with Detective Pikachu the only wide release on offer. As such, the guys went into their Patreon vault and drew out their review of the Martin Campbell directed, Daniel Craig superstar maker, Casino Royale. This was previously only available to Patrons of the show, but as a sample of all the extra content available to the show's supporters, here is this retro review for you to sample.
Can Wayne put aside his James Bond man-crush long enough to review the film objectively? And does Paul find a way to enjoy this one, having never been a big Bond fan? Find out as The Countdown continues ...

This week the boys are continuing their world tour of the best films by country ... by staying right at home to celebrate the Top 10 Aussie films! This is a topic they did when the show was first starting, but they're revisiting it four years later to see whether their initial views have changed, and what might have forced its way onto the list since that last discussion.
Has Wayne come round to realise that Australian films can be just as classy as those from other film industry in the world? And how many Mad Max films will wind up on Paul's list? Find the answers to these questions and so much more as The Countdown continues ...
Don't forget about the Epic Film Guys and their Livestream for the Cure event happening May 17th to 19th. Find out all about their efforts to raise $7500 to fight cancer and learn how you can donate to such an important cause at https://fundraise.cancerresearch.org/fundraiser/1947095

This week, the boys review the new Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron odd-couple comedy, Long Shot. It's counter-programming at its finest with Avengers: Endgame continuing to take ALL the money in the word, but can a rom-com with an uncouth edge somehow make a tidy profit in the current market? And just how gross does this Episode become when bodily fluids somehow become involved?
The real long shot however, is Paul somehow liking this rom-com more than Wayne. Can it possibly be? Find out as The Countdown continues ...
Time Stamps:
Long Shot NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 11:43
Long Shot SPOILER-FILLED Thoughts: 11:43 - 17:18
Final Thoughts including potential spoilers: 17:18 - 18:46

WARNING: Do NOT eat while listening to this Episode!
This week the boys re-define the depths of grossness as they go all out to test the boundaries of decorum and good taste (but, like, more than usual) as they countdown their Top 10 Gross-Out Comedies of all time!
Every kind of bodily secretion gets far more attention than any one hour of entertainment should allow. And to the surprise of both, it is Wayne who breaks hardest. In a Countdown Podcast first, listen in to learn which Paul chosen and detailed film breaks Wayne and has him declare he can't go on recording!
All this and so much more as The Countdown continues ...

The numbers are in and Avengers: Endgame is the biggest film to have ever opened in movie history! So, of course, the guys have seen it and have their perspectives on whether the film succeeds or falls short of the epic expectations it set for itself with the previous 21 films in the Infinity War saga.
Naturally, the boys have a difference of opinions with Wayne having seen it twice and Paul only just walking out of the cinema to record this review. But who is #Negatron this time around? Will Wayne continue his film hating ways, or will Paul steal back the mantle?
And find out what as#$*le deliberately spoiled the film for Paul ...
Time Stamps:
Avengers: Endgame NON-SPOILER Review: 0:00 - 10:02
Avengers: Endgame Spoiler-Filled Thoughts: 10:02 - 27:35
Final Thoughts: 27:35 - 28:37
