10 years ago my wife and I got married in a small, intimate ceremony at a local hotel and today we celebrated a decade married by packing the kids off to school and going to play crazy golf, so yeah, that's a realistic portrayal of what marriage looks like for the uninitiated. I  bring this up because it's late and I'm drunk and I don't have an interesting, funny or relevant way to introduce this weeks Top 5, which was the Top 5 Box Office Bombs. Not the explosive kind, more the kind that lose hideous amounts of money and ruin reputations and careers for ever. If you haven't stayed abreast of the net losses of movies over the years - and let's face it if you haven't you're a moron - you might find some of the movies we mention a surprise.This weeks movie was Christian Rivers's 2018 MORTAL ENGINES, a film I was completely  unaware existed until just a couple of weeks ago. Based upon the YA novel of the same name by Phillip Reeve and produced by the visionary Peter Jackson, Hera Hilmar plays the vengeful Hester Shaw on the trail of Hugo Weaving's Thaddeus Valentine, who has a plan to eradicate so called static cities in pursuit of Municipal Darwinism. An extraordinary visual treat with more than a few nods and winks to cultural juggernauts like Star Wars and Lord Of The Rings, not all of the dads were enamored with this box office flop so proceed with caution.We finish up this weeks show with a look back at BOB THE BUILDER in a specially selected episode titled "Wallpaper Wendy". Expect many jokes about wallpaper paste and bukakke parties but also surprisingly raw and honest emotional confessions of DIY anxiety and ineptitude. This particular episode was selected on the grounds of it's huge controversy; Bob apparently raping and killing several members of his local community. No, I jest of course but there was some genuine issues with this episode with allegations of swearing directed at the tax dodging building contractor. We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. Try us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review or on our website baddadsfilm.com.Until next time, we remain...Bad Dads

It's the end of the world on this episode of It's Your Pic. Two post-apocalyptic visions enter, one post-apocalyptic vision leaves. Actually, it's not much of a contest; Furiosa could take Hester Shaw with one arm tied behind her back.

Hundreds of years after a cataclysmic event destroyed civilization, mysterious young Hester Shaw emerges as the only one who can stop the city of London -- now a giant predator on wheels -- from devouring everything in its path. Feral and fiercely driven by the memory of her mother, Hester joins forces with Tom Natsworthy, an outcast from London, and Anna Fang, a dangerous outlaw with a bounty on her head.

Mortal Engines Part 2Philip Reeve"It was a dark, blustery afternoon in spring, and the city of London was chasing a small mining town across the dried-out bed of the old North Sea."The great traction city London has been skulking in the hills to avoid the bigger, faster, hungrier cities loose in the Great Hunting Ground. But now, the sinister plans of Lord Mayor Mangus Crome can finally unfold.Thaddeus Valentine, London's Head Historian and adored famous archaeologist, and his lovely daughter, Katherine, are down in The Gut when the young assassin with the black scarf strikes toward his heart, saved by the quick intervention of Tom, a lowly third-class apprentice. Racing after the fleeing girl, Tom suddenly glimpses her hideous face: scarred from forehead to jaw, nose a smashed stump, a single eye glaring back at him. "Look at what your Valentine did to me!" she screams. "Ask him! Ask him what he did to Hester Shaw!" And with that she jumps down the waste chute to her death. Minutes later Tom finds himself tumbling down the same chute and stranded in the Out-Country, a sea of mud scored by the huge caterpillar tracks of cities like the one now steaming off over the horizon.In a stunning literary debut, Philip Reeve has created a painful dangerous unforgettable adventure story of surprises, set in a dark and utterly original world fueled by Municipal Darwinism -- and betrayal.Goodreads.com---This is Epilagers.

Des centaines d’années après qu’un évènement apocalyptique a détruit la Terre, l’humanité s’est adaptée pour survivre en trouvant un nouveau mode de vie. Ainsi, de gigantesques villes mobiles errent sur Terre prenant sans pitié le pouvoir sur d’autres villes mobiles plus petites. Tom Natsworthy - originaire du niveau inférieur de la grande ville mobile de Londres – se bat pour sa propre survie après sa mauvaise rencontre avec la dangereuse fugitive Hester Shaw. Deux personnages que tout oppose, qui n’étaient pas destinés à se croiser, vont alors former une alliance hors du commun, destinée à bouleverser le futur.

Following a cataclysmic conflict known as the Sixty Minute War, the remnants of humanity regroup and form mobile "predator" cities. Under a philosophy known as "Municipal Darwinism", larger cities hunt and absorb smaller settlements in the "Great Hunting Ground", which includes Great Britain and Continental Europe. In opposition, an "Anti-Traction League" have developed an alternative civilization consisting of "static settlements" in Asia led by Shan Guo (formerly China), protected by the "Shield Wall." A young girl named Hester Shaw works alongside a young historian to take down London, once and for all.  This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5939723/advertisement

Dans un univers steampunk post-apocalyptique où les villes sont mobiles, la vie de Tom se voit changée lorsqu’il croise Hester Shaw, une jeune femme qui veut se venger d’un certain Thaddeus Valentine. Le scénario de Mortal Engines, adapté d’une série de romans SF parue au début des années 2000, est bien co-signé par Peter Jackson, mais peut-être aurait-il du également prendre en charge la réalisation. En cherchant du positif, on trouve un très beau personnage de monstre, des cités roulantes qui renouvellent l’imaginaire et des effets spéciaux hallucinants pour un mini budget. Mais l’ensemble du film ne se tient pas, et l’accumulation des twists ratés aboutit à deux heures d’ennui poli. Peut-être ne fallait-il pas relancer le mouvement young adult cinq ans après son essoufflement. Animé par Thomas Rozec avec Julien Dupuy, David Honnorat, Stéphane Moïssakis et Perrine Quennesson.RÉFÉRENCES CITÉES DANS L’ÉMISSIONMortal Engines (Christian Rivers, 2018), Hugo Weaving, Braindead (Peter Jackson, 1992), King Kong (Peter Jackson, 2005), Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, John Carter, Spiderman New Generation, Le Hobbit (Peter Jackson, 2012), Georges Miller, Aquaman (James Wan, 2018), Mary Poppins (Rob Marshall, 2018), Jennifer Lawrence, Stephen Lang, Mad Max : Fury Road (Georges Miller, 2015), Junkie XL, Robert Sheehan, Misfits (Howard Overman, 2009 - 2013), Jupiter Ascending (Les Wachowski, 2015), Hunger Games, Twilight, Umbrella Academy, Hippocrate, Laputa : le Chateau dans le ciel (Hayao Miyazaki, 2003), Steamboy (Katsuhiro Otomo, 2002), Créatures célestes (Peter Jackson, 1994), Lovely Bones (Peter Jackson, 2009).

This is one set of YA novels that had passed us by, but they didn’t pass by Peter Jackson, who handed it over to his long-time storyboarder and special effects guy Christian Rivers to direct. The plucky heroine of this series is Hester Shaw, a scarred young woman hell-bent on avenging her mother’s murder. She’s joined by a blue-eyed angel in the form of Robert Sheehan as Tom, and Anna Fang, played by K-Pop star Jihae, who is worth the price of admission alone.

Mortal Engines is a new sci-fi fantasy film co-written and produced by Peter Jackson, based on the first in a series of young adult steampunk novels by Philip Reeve. In a post-apocalyptic future, mobile cities on huge caterpillar tracks roam the landscape, consuming smaller towns for their resources. Starring Hera Hilmar as Hester Shaw, the film is the directorial debut of long-time Jackson collaborator Christian Rivers. Katie Popperwell reviews.In a year when housing has risen up the political agenda, Richard Gregory, artistic director of Quarantine theatre company, and performance artist Grace Surman discuss Tenancy, part of a Manchester-led international project which explores the changing nature of cities by artists taking over a residential home for a year.The work of the Chinese photographer Ren Hang found admirers worldwide and was championed by Ai Weiwei, though the Chinese authorities were less enamoured. Almost two years after his death at the age of 29 and with the first show of his work in the UK premiering at Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool, Laura Robertson, critical writer-in-residence at the gallery discusses Ren Hang's significance. When Martin Jenkinson was made redundant from the Sheffield steel industry in 1979, it was the start of a four decade-long career as a professional photographer whose first subject was his adopted city. His pictures of the 1984 – 85 miners' strike were widely published in the national press. Years later they would catch the eye of Turner-prizewinning artist Jeremy Deller who worked with Jenkinson on his recreation of The Battle of Orgreave. Art critic Orla Foster reviews the new retrospective of Jenkinson's photographs at Weston Park Museum in Sheffield.Presenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Ekene Akalawu
