    #10 | Mary Poppins Returns and Fizzy Jelly Sweets

    Dust off those old kites and break out that tuppence you’ve been saving. A certain magical nanny is back, practically perfect in every way. The latest episode of Cinematters will go down without a spoonful of sugar, as Ella strays away from the big screen for a recommendation, and Dan’s inner musical fan rears its head. Returning 54 years after her departure into the clouds, Mary Poppins' new visit raises a lot of questions. Does Emily Blunt fill those black heels Julie Andrews tapped her toes in? Is Lin-Manuel Miranda’s accent just as bad as his predecessor? How is a 93-year-old Dick Van Dyke still dancing? We come bearing answers and admiration for a film that has nowhere to go but up.

    Breaking out of prison and into cinemas, The Old Man and the Gun opens with a wink and a tip of the hat. The Sundance kid is back on the big screen for possibly the final time – join Ella and Dan as they recommend foreign films, ponder directorial choices, and contemplate a life of crime for themselves. Whether you’re in the mood for a classic Sunday adventure or to see some guns blazing (finger guns, that is), Redford’s latest is sure to make you feel like a kid in a car chase. So stick on some smooth jazz, and relax into a tale of a gentleman, an old man who’s just talkin’ about living.

    Has two years obliviated your memory of an enchanted 1920s New York? Or have you been counting the days until the nifflers get loose again? This week, Cinematters turns its illuminated wand towards the continuing adventures of Newt Scamander, the magizoologist who’ll make you forget all about the boy who lived. Will the tenth film in the wizarding series be the movie that gives Ella Potter-fever, or finally says “Expelliarmus!” to Dan’s doubts about sequels? Join us as we mull over possible timeline discrepancies, revel in wizarding world fandom, and gawp at the visual splendour of those oh so fantastic beasts.

    Is this the real life? It's not just fantasy, it's a passionate Cinematters debate about the new biopic Bohemian Rhapsody. Telling the story of Freddie Mercury and Queen, it got Ella and Dan dancing even though the music doesn't always ring true. Featuring a roundup of our favourite moments, tune in for an explanation as to why the film feels all too similar to Mean Girls and Shark Tale. Factchecking Queen's history and celebrating the life of a legend while putting the Critics vs Fans debate back in the spotlight, join us for a short and sweet guide to the big screen moment that just about defines a generation.

    It was one small step for man, but a huge step for the Cinematters debate. With twinkly toes and stars in his eyes, La La Land director Damien Chazelle returns to direct Ryan Gosling as he takes on the role of Neil Armstrong in First Man. For this episode, Ella reveals what exactly makes the beautiful music really sound like aliens while Dan explains why Chazelle might still need to aim for higher skies. With some early awards speculation and plenty of warring opinions on Gosling's back catalogue and Claire Foy's emotional strength, there's an astronomical amount to question here. The definitive best space movie, though? There is a correct answer to that. Listen up to find out and put all doubts to rest.

    #5 | A Star Is Born and Salted Popcorn

    Hey, we just wanted to take another look at A Star is Born, this week's new release and the reason why we'll never love again. Back from a Summer hiatus, Ella and Dan celebrate the film on everyone's minds, and find time to recommend space operas and Netflix dramas while also contemplating assaulting police officers (only off-duty), all the while remaining very much far from the shallow, now. Join us as we marvel at Bradley Cooper's multitasking and Sam Elliott's unbelievably low register, and reveal why a third remake of an 81-year-old film is necessary, and actually good. If loving this movie is a bad romance then we don't care, we were born this way.
