On this episode of Film Fans, Sam and Sean discuss the mid-season finale of The Walking Dead. Sean really enjoyed the intense ride of the episode, while Sam wasn’t as blown away.

They then move onto movie/tv rumours and discuss the casting call for Amazon, the newest adaptation of Wonder Woman from the CW, while also talking about the last failed attempt at a Wonder Woman TV show. But with Arrow, doing so well, they have hopes that someone might get it right. Well, hopes is a strong word. After that they look at discuss the new movie posters for both Star Trek into Darkness and Man of Steel, and share their feelings on the two films. They finish off the show by discussing Life of Pi, in the “Why You Should Watch…” segment of the show, and both agree that it is well worth the price of admission. Even though Honor Knight has reviewed the movie and questioned some of the narrative choices, Sam and Sean take a look at what he wrote and discuss the criticisms in greater detail.

This is a special episode of Film Fans where Sean, Nicole, Jay, and Jack discuss the Dark Knight Rises. It was originally set to air right after the film was released in theatres. However, during the great computer fiasco of July/August, a few episodes including this one was lost and our discussion on the film was not heard by anyone. Until now. Starting the podcast with their general opinions on the movie, the gang then goes into the previous films in the trilogy and discuss their favourite film, and Dark Knight moment. Afterwards, they jump right into the Dark Knight Rises and when Jack seems to be not as enthused about the film as the other three, he is grilled for his reasons why. Want to find out what Jack didn’t like about the film and what the others loved? Take a listen!

In this episode of Film Fans, Sean is joined by Word of the Nerd staff writers, Sam and Honor Knight (for the sake of the episode and Sean’s sanity, he is referred to as HK). They first discuss recent movie news, including the biggest news of that week, LucasArts being purchased by Disney. Especially the fact that there will be yet another Star Wars trilogy, if not more, starting with Episode 7 in 2015. The same year, in fact, that will also house the Justice League movie, as well as Avengers 2. They also delve into the rumour mill and discuss what company Disney has its eyes on next and how long it will be before they take over the world. They then discuss Bond movies, in an attempt to get ready for Skyfall – which was reviewed by our own Jack Chambers, and can be found here. They end the night with the usual Why You Should Watch segment, with each of them taking a different film to discuss; this week being Wreck-it-Ralph (HK), Cloud Atlas (Sam) and the Man with the Iron Fists (Sean).
