Wes Craven and Christopher Nolan face off this week, as Adam and Becs give 2005's 'Red Eye' and 2010's 'Inception' the Film Club treatment.

'A Life Less Ordinary' (1997) or '28 Days Later' (2002): Which will emerge victorious this week?

1991's 'Father of the Bride' heads down the aisle with 2009's 'Rachel Getting Married' this week as we discuss the premises, promises and pitfalls of wedding movies. Along the way, we get perplexed by fonts, stressed by dishwashers and distracted by Sunday night TV.

We kick things off by each picking a movie gem based on a TV show, pitching 2009's 'In The Loop' against 1992's 'Wayne's World', and by discussing the reasons that shows rarely have a smooth transition from small to big screen.
