This week on the podcast, disgraced podcast hosts Dan and Simon discuss efforts by disgraced star Johnny Depp to mount a comeback with new movie Ebenezer (in cinemas). Then, Dan talks up the new Chris Rock movie Misty Green (on Netflix) – a film the world insists is a three star effort, but Dan will die on the hill that it's a three point five star film. And then there's also some chatter about Nobody Wants This (Netflix), You Can See Everything (in cinemas), and 12 12 12 (Apple TV).

This week on the podcast: Simon spent some time with the big guy in the new film Godzilla Minus Zero. He also poked around Easter Island with new film Wild Horse Nine. And had a little faith with the new George Michael concert doco.Dan stayed on the couch where he had a wild time in the old west with Bass X Machina, laughed along with famous old friends with the new SCTV doco, and was delightfully freaked out by economic circumstance with Dead End Job.

The Devils is an incredible 70s film that has just been re-released to cinemas in a never-before-seen version. It has h*rny priests. H*rny nuns.
