It is THAT time of year again. Wayne and Paul's Public Service Announcement where the very worst films of the preceding year are named and shamed, in the hope that YOU, dear listener, can be saved the pain and suffering that the boys endured in watching these massive POSs.
Just how angry will Paul get? Who or what will be the main subject of his ire? And does Wayne get on board the bagging-out train in a big way, or can he remain pure and chaste through this one? (Ha! This is Wayne we're talking about!)
Learn the answers to all these questions and more as The Countdown continues into 2020 ...

Gamers have been eagerly awaiting Netflix's The Witcher to arrive, so they can watch Geralt of Rivia strut his stuff on the small screen, while Wayne was just frothing at the mouth to see Henry Cavill back in the saddle (ie half naked in the bath) ...
Man-crushes aside, the boys this week aim to determine if the new streaming series is any good and worth the eight plus hours of your time. Is this an intriguing establishing first season? Or is it needlessly complicated for non-gamers and too slow to make its point?
Find out as The Countdown continues into 2020!

So it all comes to an end. After 42 years, the Skywalker saga comes to a close, with JJ Abrams entrusted to guide the saga through its conclusion, but can the man who made Star Trek cool again and wowed most with The Force Awakens stick the landing? Or was it a baffling move by Disney to re-hire him after he refused the offer to do Episode VIII and then clearly didn't like the choices Rian Johnson made in that film?
The boys answer these questions AND give their definitive ranking of all Star Wars films as The Countdown continues ...

The Rise of Skywalker SPOILER-FREE Review: 0:00 - 12:28

This week, the boys wrap up the Best of the Decade series of shows by inviting Gerald from Two Peas on a Podcast and Wesley from the Via VHS Podcast on to team up with their list of the Top 10 Sci-Fi Films of the 2010s. So it's North Carolina versus Australia, with the home ground advantage to The Countdown boys. But will it be enough? Both lists have some cracker films (and there is an extraordinary number of cross-ups, all things considered) with some critically important differences.
Is Blade Runner 2049 worthy of this list? Does Wayne shoehorn a Tom Cruise film onto this list? And can Paul find a way to include Mad Max: Fury Road AGAIN?
Learn the answers to all these questions and so much more, as The Countdown continues ...

BAAYHEMMMMM! Love him or hate him, Michael Bay has run off with a significant proportion of Netflix's budget for 2019 to produce a more nuanced and mature blockbuster for the streaming gia-BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Of course he hasn't! Michael Bay returns with more crass language, more ludicrous stunts, and way more death and violence than any Transformers movie! Of course it's NOT any good, but is it entertaining?

A tiny film called The Rise of Skywalker opens around the world today, so the Movie Mass Debaters got back together recently to put The Last Jedi to the test. Is it the crapfest a significant proportion of the fan-base believes, or is it a gem of a film which propelled the Star Wars universe in the direction of much-needed change? We Watched a Thing's B-Dizzle and Topher recruited Dean from The Movie Journey Podcast to take the side of light, while Dudi from Shaken Not Nerd turned Sam from Movie Reviews in 20 Q's and Paul to the Dark Side, all while Hendo (also from The Movie Journey podcast) presided over all to declare a winner.
So kick back with this ahead your viewing of The Rise of Skywalker, or maybe listen in while basking in the warm glow of the end of The Skywalker saga. Either way, enjoy this Aussie/Kiwi podcasting mash-up!
