Tangent City

Barbenheimer.....without the Barbie.

Cecilia, Lewis and Kat set out to talk Barbenheimer but get stuck on Barbie.

Nic Roberts joins Lewis and Kat to talk Guardians of the Galaxy and head down a few rabbit holes (ok it's not a rabbit, it's a raccoon) to sprinkle some tangenty goodness on this bowl of morning cereal.

We're back and have Lee to talk Star Wars with Lewis and Kat.

Lewis, Cecilia and Kat catch up to talk about their recent binges.

Lewis, Cecilia and Kat talk seasonal viewing. Apologies for the audio - Kat chose the wrong sound device when she hit record!

Lewis, Cecilia and Kat take a look at televisions and television.

Cecilia, Lewis and Kat are joined by (funnily enough, from the other side of the WORLD) Nic Branch ostensibly to talk about Dominion but, well, you know how these things go.

Inspired by recently viewing The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Willy's Wonderland, we take a look at the highs, lows and strange purchases of Nicholas Cage.

After a bit of a gap in recordings, Katherine, Lewis, Cecila and Rachele get together with the intention to talk Nicholas Cage, but end up on an epic tangent adventure.

Kat, Lewis and Cecilia are joined by special guest and Batman knowledge-base, Jason, to spoil The Batman.

We bring in Lee and put him in charge of the spoiler bell so we can take a look at The Book of Boba Fett, AKA The Mandalorian season 2.5.

Spoiler cast, spoiler cast. Looks at what we viewed in the past.....See what we did there? Fancy some spoilerific chat about the latest Spider-Man installment: No Way Home? Don't adjust your screen, you've tuned into the right bat-channel...

Lewis, Cecilia and Kat visit the world of mukbang before getting stuck into a binge fest to swap some viewing ideas around (there's plenty) as well as what's coming up for release soon….and the inevitable conversation of just how many streaming services do we have or need?

In an interesting experiment, Cecilia, Lewis and Kat get spooky (well, kooky) and straight into announcing the show to take a look at spooky and scary movies and tv shows, particularly those based around the holiday known as Halloween.

We took a good old fashioned spoilercast look at Black Widow after we'd first viewed it.

Welcome to the Jungle Cruise!

Could it be that there's a comic book movie that's really entertained Cecilia?! Tune in to hear our unfiltered thoughts on James Gunn's foray into the DC universe (and how it kicked some serious butt!).

Some movies make you want to plan a trip to visit the locations they were filmed in, or the real places they were based in. Between us, we've done a fair amount of film-influenced travel. We do swear in this one….right from the outset. Sorry/Not Sorry.

With the first season of Loki done, Kat and Lewis sat down with fellow Marvel nerds Sam and Ashley to talk all things Loki. Well, all things except what the collective noun for Lokis might be.

In one of our most spectacular tangents, we end up talking about houses in movies rather than sport, which is what we set out to talk about. It's one of our most successful fails to date!

Cecilia had a hilarious moment waking up that took us through high school movies across time. What’s your favourite? Which movies did we forget!?

Waiting to do this episode nearly made Lewis and Kat’s heads explode…..but here it is the spoiler cast of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier in all of its six episode glory!

While you don't need every movie wrapped up in a bow, sometimes a film's ambiguous scenes or endings leaves things too open ended.  Catch up with us as we explore this...and maybe vent a little! But not in a clean way - this is a Tangent City/Unscripted co production so we had to watch our language. Double points if you can call the point where Kat swore.

Lewis and Kat take a break from Dis Down Under to take a spoilerific dive into the magic that was WandaVision.

Pack your bags, throw on your biggest pair of sunglasses and stick your thumb out to get a ride to Tangent City where we take a look at road trip movies….and what constitutes a road trip.

Be it by TARDIS, Delorian. phone box, superpower or hot tub….who wouldn’t want to be able to time travel to another place, another era, or to see if the 19th century really existed. Jump on board as we crack open a bottle of Juniper Estate’s Fiano and delve into what will surely become a timeless classic....or perhaps more likely a tangent classic.

The Director who we admire for her love of colour, sound and fashion as much as her love of Bill Murray.

Four straight people decide to take a look at the portrayal of the LGBTIQA+ community in TV and film.

We embrace our mates across the ditch with a look at the movies produced by an in the nation next to us, New Zealand. Warning: there's a who lotta accent action happening here.

We made Chris watch Hamilton. Have we converted him to love the musical genre and made him walk away humming those catchy tunes? Or did we waste 2 hours and 40 minutes of his life?

We get the lay of the land from the Tangent City crew on the home of the triple-threat, musicals. Chris joins us on this episode (and manages to stay awake the whole time!) that is dedicated to the genre, how (and if) we like to watch them and some of our favourite performances to date.

How could Cecilia be on this show and us not get to Stephen King!? We talk a delve into his works that takes a lovely tangent but gets back to the author who has given us so much creepy, weird and wonderful.

We decide to celebrate our 50th episode the only way we know how – with a raft of tangents, some deep conversations and talking about human actors turning 50 this year. Buckle up for this bumper episode, people!

With three weeks of sub-40 minute shows, we feel like we’ve redeemed ourselves a little so we thought we’d take a look at some of the redemption stories that have hit our screens.

Rachele brings a new game to the table and we play through eliminating the answers so we can decide What You Doing? After episode 47’s running theme, we were bound to bring sweat into this one!

August is the month of a big Perth running event, the City to Surf, so we thought we’d take a look at running movies, while Lewis keeps us in line for a super-quick, personal best show!

We continue on the second half of Rachele’s 30 day movie challenge, with a healthy number of tangents!

Rachele takes us on a journey through the 30 day movie challenge, which proves to be as interesting as it is difficult!

Cecilia leads us down the track of deconstructionism, which takes us on a winding path through parody laws and movie influences. We also learned a great lesson: don’t stand between Rachele and her chorizo!

We talk background music and the (sometimes underappreciated) people who create it in this episode with Cecilia, Lewis, Rachele and Katherine.

From movies we’ve seen where it’s a one and done, to movies that are just too long to revisit, and let’s not forget the movies that we plain hate and wanted our time back, we chat about movies we’re never watching again. Word of warning this was a pre-record designed to be played when Kat and Lewis were going to be away. It was done a while ago so we do talk about the corona virus in it’s very early days. 42 may be the answer to the ultimate question, but episode 42 is not the end of our understanding of this virus.

Lewis gives away America’s Arse, Rachele finds her movie journal from 2006 and shares some pearls of wisdom, and we get stuck into some comfort food movies. Anyone for mac and cheese!?

Turns out Lewis, Rachele and Kat were all raised in front of the TV, so a dip in the pool that was 80s and 90s animation and children’s television was inevitable.

Cecilia, Rachele, Kat and Lewis take a look at women in cinema on this international holiday. From Cinderella passing the Bechdel test to Deadpool acknowledging this internationally recognised day we manage to have a laugh and get up on our soap boxes.

Tangents happen, people. Without Cecilia’s guidance, we go completely off track bouncing from zoos to burlesque with a side serving of cricket and swimming.

We continue on from last episode with the second half of the Best Film nominations of the last decade. We’re not sure what the lapsed Catholics talking about va jim jam Christmas says for organised religion, nor our podcast.

With a new decade underway, and the Oscars on their way, we take a look at the last decade of Best Film nominations but not before getting a little hung up on the side effects of some chips.

With some amazing movies being produced bringing the sobering experience of the frontlines to our screens, we thought we'd touch on just some of the movies out there in the war genre. Oh! And if you need to exorcise the whistle tune ear worm, The Bridge Over the River Kwai is streaming on Amazon Prime.

The Unscripted crew have done their top ten and bottom five films of the year so we thought it’d be fun to hear across the generations and around the world about films people loved in 2019 and what they’re looking forward to in 2020 as we embark on a new decade!

Cecilia, Chris, Lewis, Rachele and Kat find out they're one degree away from Mark Ruffalo before getting on track (okay, track-ish) to take a look at movies based on real events, which is kind of a Tom Hank's retrospective when you think about it…
