In which our heroes are left behind by their families, defend their homes from burglars and pitch the next Home Alone adventure, and realise adventure is maybe too strong a word. We review the five (five!) Home Alone films, tick off all the possibly Home Alone films and miss the kids films of old. Jackson pitches his ideal return to the Home Alone franchise, Edgoose gets sad about giant gingerbread men and Gabe inexplicably rented the fourth Home Alone film.

In which our heroes rack up points, rack up kills, rack up stars and rack up an ideal Grand Theft Auto franchise. We reveal our parents didn't let us play video games, get into GTA late but really get in deep and drop some sick foreshadowing. Zammit likes listening to the radio, Adam gets so sad and Gabe pitches his ideal GTA adaptation. So sit back, listen to the ideal GTA movie and then forgot about it, and come bowling cousin.Want to get Gabe into games?

In which our heroes roll the dice, get a 20 and pitch the ideal Dungeons & Dragon movie. We get tricked into talking about Eragon, wrestle actors and don't go on any tangents. Zammit really wants to wrassle Jeremy Irons, special guest Adam does his best to lean into the camp and Edgoose just bullies them both. So sit back, pick your ideal class, roll the dice and hope for a natty 20. What's the worst that could happen?Want Adam to pitch even more D&D related films?

In which our heroes hear the voice of God, ignore it and try to get Zammit to watch Preacher. We draw lines in the sand and debate like champions. Handsome Tom and Edgoose try to convince Zammit that Preacher is the way to go, and Angry Carney staunchly disagrees. So sit back and hear friendships wither and die as we debate Preacher.Want Zammit to buy the box set?

In which our heroes make a billion dollars, become cat people and pitch their ideal Avatar. We clarify which Avatar we mean (Cat people not Shyamalan), wonder where Worthington went and marvel at how many sequels Avatar is actually getting (too many). Gabe doesn't know how he remembers the first one so well, Edgoose quizzes the others on Avatar trivia, Carney checks out early and Handsome Tom pitches the Avatar film you didn’t know you wanted. So sit back and join us as we try to get in James Cameron's head and figure out the best way to return to the world of Avatar.Want to see this movie made? By us?

In which our heroes boldly go where no one has gone before and sort out Star Trek: Beyond. We immediately retitle the film, are amazed at the single clapper and discuss if being a Trekkie is an all or nothing thing. Zammit is still mad about Into Darkness, Carney forgot about Idris and Handsome Tom pitches his ideal Frankensteined version of Star Trek: Beyond. So sit back, live long and prosper and travel with us at warp speed as we fix the latest Star Trek film.Want help us pay for Handsome Tom's re-education?

In which our heroes forget what movies are and set their sights on fixing the play/book Harry Potter and The Cursed Child. We get mad, get sad, think the Trolley Witch is great, praise how seamless time travel is and SPOIL EVERYTHING, you've been warned. Gabe tries to change who the cursed child is, Carney is still reeling from the book, Alyce tries to work out Voldie’s love timeline and Edgoose gets way too mad about Voldemort's junk. So sit back and solemnly swear you're up to no good as we tackle The Cursed Child. Not literally. Although that would be great. Want to send us to Hogwarts?

In which our heroes do a deal with the devil, catch fire and ride straight to hell creating the ideal Ghost Rider movie. We talk about the terrible ones we have, get distracted by zombies and learn how to say Zack Snyder's name. Zammit loves Rent (movie, not the thing you pay), Gabe reveals what turned him into a homophobe and Edgoose pitches his ideal Ghost Rider reboot.

In which our heroes are haunted by past decisions, live through nightmares and attempt to solve our hellish lives with arson while asking how did P!nk's house get so full of evil clowns? Join your favourite pop music fans as they attempt to understand a deeper meaning behind every single lyric, misunderstand the point of metaphors and discuss the royal you, royal we and the royal singular us. Jackson figures out the perfect amount of clowns to allow in your house, Zammit likes the idea of one person running from a thousand bulls and Duscher just wants to flaunt his university education. Buckle in for another top tier episode that everyone has been clamouring for! You're welcome fans. Want to help us investigate the clown rash phenomenon?

In which our heroes pull on their tights, affix their capes, and set out to protect the innocent as they discuss Superhero films. We guess at what causes sequels, remember the cinematic masterpiece that was Spawn, and give praise to James Spader. Gabe finds himself once again excited for a Spiderman film, Adam wants his Spiderman to be a bit more nerdy, and Zammit just wants Ant-Man 2 to be a Dark Avengers heist film. So promise films all the way into 2020, make some odd choices here and there, and sort of end up making the same film several times. Excelsior.Want us to fund our own superhero film?

In which our heroes return for the sequel they wished they didn't have to and continue to try and save Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. We point out why Marvel works, complain about comics being the dumbest things ever and talk about literally anything we can to avoid talking about BvS. Zammit delights in cousin's being okay, Gabe is still holding out hope for Hannibal to return and special guest Michael Shanks admires DC's chutzpah in sticking to Man of Steel for better or worse (worse). So sit back, hope that DC gets it right with Justice League as we come up with reasons for why a grown man wants to dress like a bat and punch a god in the face. Want us to buy DC? Head to http://www.patreon.com/sanspantsradio and for as little as $1 a month you can help us get this company do good films instead of crap ones.

In which our heroes cowl up, put their underwear on the outside and cram in as much foreshadowing for the future as they can for part 1 of the Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice Movie Maintenance. We give Zack Snyder his due, blame Christopher Nolan and would kill for a bit of good old fashioned boy-scout morality in our superheroes. Zammit doesn't get why Batman is a precog, Gabe didn't know or care who the Flash was and special guest Michael Shanks just thinks kids deserve a better Superman. So sit back and get lifted up by bats into the light as we fix BvS: DoJ. Or at least half of it.Want to fund a new DCU?

In which our heroes praise your friend Billy Zane (he's a cool dude) and give him another shot in Phantom 2: The Ghost Who Walks. We try to cheer up Russel Crowe, celebrate Australia's surprisingly deep love of Phantom comics and profess our undying love for the man they call Billy Zane. Sean pitches his perfect Phantom sequel, Gabe's a black hearted monster and Handsome Tom just wants to explore all possible options for Hitler. So sit back, wear the skull ring and carry on the legacy of The Phantom; The ghost who walks. Want to cast Adolf Hitler in Phantom 2?

See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
In which our heroes boldly go where they've gone before and decide they want to talk about Hannibal again for the 50th episode of Movie Maintenance! We talk about how we're feeling one year on, are shocked at how vaginal some scenes were and understand that this show is about romance, not horror. Seriously. Handsome Tom reveals he nearly gave up in the early days, Gabe gets grumpy about Patsy and Zoe just wants to ship Will and Hannibal just as hard as she can. So sit back, curse network television and cable television while talk about Hannibal. For the fourth time. Want to fund another season of Hannibal?
