The Midnight Run
From two movie obsessed brothers comes the ultimate celebration of cinema and the largely pointless yet magnificent joy of making lists about it. Opinions, Top 10’s, random facts and anecdotes all drawn from the brains of men who can quote Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, Zulu, The Princess Bride and yes, Midnight Run from beginning to end. Tell your friends, tell people you are slightly indifferent to, tell people you actively despise and remember, there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure.

Episode 30
Fresh from the success of their new play, our boys return with their long awaited 30th episode. The 2010s were a time where they admit to being less prolific in visiting the cinema. Did life get in the way, or did it seem like films became longer and we are talking generally and not specifically referring to The Irishman.
This was a decade that featured prominent whoppers like Get Out, Mad Max: Fury Road and Gravity. There were revivals for the Star Wars and Jurassic franchises and it was a great decade for superhero and animated films. We also reveal who we thought were the prominent actors and actresses of the time as well as our favourite performances and scenes (so many to choose from). Lots of different films appearing in our top 10s with none of the same in the top 5.
Matt has a quiz for Lewis, who has a box office quiz in return. One does significantly better than the other.
Do extras in battle scenes just fight it out between themselves, or do they know what they are supposed to do? What food would Matt like for his stag weekend and gravestones.
The 2010s were a decade that lost some of our enthusiasm for films, but is that true? Perhaps our minds are changed by the end of the episode. If not, after so many good films are in the spotlight, you will have your knives out for us.
