Tony & Matt get into the storylines, the characters, and what made Friends the biggest TV sensation of the 90's, as they wonder if the show has ever truly gone away...

We head across the world for some South Korean ultraviolence this week, as PICK A FLICK! focuses on the celebrated 'Vengeance Trilogy' which proved a landmark in Korean cinema. Paul Field hosts, alongside Andrew Brooker, as both take an occasionally filthy but always entertaining look at three Korean movies. SYMPATHY FOR MR. VENGEANCE, the first in the 'trilogy', the most famous OLDBOY (which was of course remade for US audiences), and finally SYMPATHY FOR LADY VENGEANCE, perhaps the least seen of the three - as nominated by Malfrey's Movie Madness & Kevin Wight. Also Paul & Brooker take a look at their own Top 5 Korean movies - what will their recommendations be?

Modern horror is the order of the day in this weeks PICK A FLICK! Our own horror maestro, Emma Platt, journeys over from her horror-dedicated podcast DEAD MEAT to host this creepy episode, alongside debutante Clint Thiele - popping in from the Geekdig Podcast. On the menu, they discuss Jennifer Kent's breakout 2014 horror hit, The Babadook, and also memorable found footage British creepster The Borderlands - one of those films with a celebrated twist in the tale. Also, amidst looking at these films, Emma & Clint discuss what makes a modern horror film, and what newer outings have scared them recently...

We pay a visit to the Master of Suspense this week as Chris Haigh, a long time lover of Alfred Hitchcock, steps up for his first attempt as host - joined by seasoned film podcaster Mike White, of The Projection Booth, and classic film blogger Ruth Kerr, both in debut appearances on PICK A FLICK! Films on the agenda are REAR WINDOW, Hitch's 1954 classic as nominated by WHIST? Podcast, and VERTIGO - nominated by FilmMeIn - a 1958 outing for Hitch, both starring James Stewart as two very different kinds of men. Chris, Mike & Ruth also explore in detail Hitchcock's career, delivering some fascinating information about the legendary director to boot. Join them for a foray into the very heart of fear...

How's this for a slice of fried gold? PICK A FLICK! tackles three (or should that be two?) modern classics this time around, with returning host Dave Bond (of Do You Expect Us to Talk?) joined by two show debutantes - Paul Hawkins (one half of the Blokebusters Podcast) and Andrew Dodderidge, in his first ever podcast experience - to talk the 'Cornetto Trilogy'. First, SHAUN OF THE DEAD--the first team up of old friends Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost--followed by HOT FUZZ, and finally THE WORLD'S END. Our trio examine each picture before theorising on what might make a good fourth Cornetto movie if they ever chose to make it. Dave also presents the results of a Twitter poll over what the best Cornetto film is - who reigns victorious. Join them and find out!

"Avengers... A--" The Earth's mightiest heroes are put under the spotlight for this experimental episode of PICK A FLICK! this week, as Tony "Stark" Black and "The Mighty" Andrew Brooker try and 'fix' 2015's epic Marvel sequel, Avengers: Age of Ultron. Nominated by Brooker to be fixed, he and Tony tackle the film in three stages: what they liked about it, where it went wrong, and finally how they could go about fixing it. On the eve of Captain America: Civil War being released, can they improve Joss Whedon's misfiring sequel? Join them and find out more!

PICK A FLICK! gives the middle finger to the Establishment and the whole of the Cannes Film Festival as we focus on the unique, hugely divisive and often difficult auteur this week that is Mr. Lars von Trier. Host Philip Sharman (1/3rd of the award-winning Wikishuffle podcast) is joined by friend Ruth Bradley and in her first time podcasting, Jane Douglas-Jones, undertaking the impressive 500 Days of Film project which she discusses at length. Nominated by Jane herself, they first examine von Trier's 2011 film MELANCHOLIA, take a deeper look at the director's work including his controversial Dogme manifesto, and finish up--nominated by The Comic Roast--with EUROPA, a film so hard to find Jane didn't even get to see it!

The 80's! Perm hair! Synthesizers! Tie-die t-shirts! Oh and a wealth of comedies from both sides of the Pond which PICK A FLICK! examine in this episode, hosted by Emma Platt of Dead Meat - joined by The Bottle Episode curator Matt Latham & film journalist & host of Failed Critics: Underground Nights, Paul Field. Nominated by Andy Moseley, they take a serious look, Shirley, at AIRPLANE! The Zucker brothers seminal comedy that opened the decade.

The Force is with the final episode of PICK A FLICK! for 2015, which sees Tony Black joined in her second appearance by Laura Rogers and in his debut appearance, film journalist Sean Wilson on loan from the Cultural Mirrors podcast, and they're off to a galaxy far, far away to examine STAR WARS...

Meeeeery Christmas, everyone! Yes it's that time of year. Finish that mince pie. Put down the glass of sherry. Turn off Downton Abbey. PICK A FLICK! brings you festive cheer to warm the cockles with host Tony Black joined by the Wikishuffle boys aka Jack Stewart, Chris Wallace & Phil Sharman, to talk Christmas movies. Well, one Christmas movie in Richard Curtis rom-com LOVE ACTUALLY, which Chris & Phil were looking forward to revisiting in advance - will they actually agree with Tony & Jack's lack of fondness for this beloved film? Elsewhere, nominated by Steph Gabb, they look at 1974's PAPER MOON from Peter Bogdanovich, which has a particular bittersweet resonance for Phil. Did they all love it? Plus the guys take a look at some of the best and worst CHRISTMAS FILMS out there, discussing a few personal favourites, before in QUESTION TIME Tony tests their festive film knowledge - which of the Wikishufflers will come out on top?

WEEEEEE HAAAAAVE THE POWEEEEEEERRRRRR!!! Ahem. Excuse me for that, but for the latest episode of PICK A FLICK! hosted by Tony Black, it seemed appropriate. Joined this time by on-loan podcasters Dave Bond (of Do You Expect Us to Talk?) and in his first appearance on the show, Owen Hughes (of Failed Critics), they discuss variously Sean Connery, He-Man, toys and zombies. Nominated by Lee Chrimes, MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE divides opinion - is it a load of rubbish or a fun slice of 80's popcorn kitsch? ZARDOZ, on the other hand, nominated by What the Craggus Saw, is agreed by all to be an extremely strange beast, but is John Boorman's 1974 oddity actually any good? Along the way, the trio talk childhood toys that became movies, before Owen attempts to take on the leaderboard in QUESTION TIME as he's tested on his chosen film, DAY OF THE DEAD.

Ten episodes old and may the odds be ever in our favour! Brave tributes Emma Platt, our returning host, and her guests Chris Haigh and PICK A FLICK! debutante Stacey Taylor--skipping over from her own STACEY'S POP-CULTURE PARLOUR--face the challenges and dangers of two fresh nominations. First up, courtesy of 'Robbo' McGovern, is THE HUNGER GAMES - they agree on the bravery of Effie Trinket and how great Jennifer Lawrence's arse is... This leads nicely into an overall discussion of DYSTOPIAN MOVIES, along with some great suggestions from you, the listener, on Twitter & Facebook. Lastly, nominated by Skip to the End podcast, the trio are gifted 1980's 'classic' MAC AND ME to enjoy. Stacey recounts how it traumatised her, and Emma just plain unleashes the fury! Finally, it's Stacey's turn in QUESTION TIME, this week about her chosen movie - how will she fare on the leaderboard. Give it a listen and you may catch fire!

The name's Critics. Failed Critics. Should you expect us to die during our James Bond special episode? No, you should expect us to talk! And that's exactly what we do for about 90 minutes, as hosts Steve Norman and Owen Hughes are joined by special guests Tony Black (from Pick A Flick) and Brian Plank. The main review this week is of course the latest adventures of Britain's (worst kept) secret agent in SPECTRE. Sam Mendes is back in the director's seat after his record breaking success with Skyfall, and Daniel Craig faces yet more peril with the rise of a shady organisation threatening the safety of the British people. To tie into the release of SPECTRE, we have a miniature version of our Corridor of Praise episodes as we induct 007 himself. Starting with Ian Fleming's original novels, right through to Daniel Craig emerging from the sea in Speedos, we cover the character's history from beginning to the modern day. There's also time for us to squeeze in Owen's review of the Columbo TV movie that Steve... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Swearing her way into the hosting chair for the first time on PICK A FLICK!, Emma Platt is reunited with Chris Haigh aka The Haighster, one of her two Chris-based partners in crime from Black Hole Cinema, and is joined by debutant Chris Wallace - seconded from his award-winning comedy podcast, WIKISHUFFLE. With Halloween on the horizon, the trio are all about the horror this week, with the first nomination from Emma’s other half Mike Abbott being LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, the kitsch 80’s curio — did they take to it? Emma also returns with the first solo DEAD MEAT of the show, this week focusing on Body Horror - prepare to lose control… PHANTASM, the strange late 1970’s horror classic, comes next thanks to nominee The Ginger Prince, but will any of them come out believing it’s a horror great? Then last but not least, Emma pits the two Chris’ head to head in a HALLOWEEN HORROR QUIZ - can they unseat Matt Latham at the top of the leaderboard?
