Redshirt Cinema Club

Rogue Time Lord Rob continues his daring journey across time and space (or more accurately: through Dr Who, chronologically) by showing bewildered human companion Dave perhaps our favourite single episode of the whole show - the David Tennant-starring 'Midnight'.

How will Dave take to having a new Doctor in the Tardis? Will he understand JUST HOW GOOD THIS EPISODE IS? And will it make Dave a Whovian? Let's find out!

SPECIAL NOTICE - we have our first ever Patreon-only bonus episode arriving this week on Wednesday 18th September, where we'll be watching the first appearance of the weeping angels in 'Blink'!

After the meticulous horror of Ridley Scott's Alien comes the muscular genre perfection of James Cameron's Aliens. Have we had two better films in a row yet on Redshirt Cinema Club? Ahaha, no, we have not.

Join us as we battle past simply enjoying the heck out of this movie and try to say something meaningful and worthwhile. How does Aliens expand the horizons of Alien while remaining consistent to its core ideas? What gives the film its slick momentum and intensity? And look - LOOK - at how cool everything is! Just look at it!

Are we still Alien fans? Yes we are, but join us anyway!

As January follows Christmas, so too does The Hobbit follow The Lord of the Rings. A thump of ice-cold reality after the festive high. It's 12 years since we saw The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - will the lens of hindsight impact our reaction? Or will the CG orcs, cartoonish action and that scene with the plates prove too great a burden?

Listen on to find out, and join us next week for The Desolation of Smaug before we tackle The Battle of the Five Armies on January 20th.
