Surprise!

Today on your fix of news, rumours and general whisperings regarding geekdom movies there is big news from Marvel. Also some Dr Who, DC, Will Smith, Willow, Lord of the Rings, Red Dwarf and Harry Potter.

*Edit

Since the recording of this podcast the 'huge' news from Snyder just turned out to be that he will be having a limited release of his three DC films at the cinema, so not that big and not really worth mentioning in the grand scheme of things.

The Gods must be crazy guiding Dave to show this film to Samantha! To be fair it is not exactly how Dave remembers it either and to the conversation goes off piste a bit, but that always seems to happen.

Very sorry Dave has himself a bit of a sore throat that he is milking for max sympathy so there is no News this week, but the Podblast will be back next week with The Gods Must Be Crazy.

Well maybe because of the intense acting or perhaps hunger but Dave loses control of the Podblast towards the end and Samantha goes rogue!

As usual the first fifteen minutes or so is the latest round of news and rumours from the internet regarding the things we dig - after that is Dave's fifteen minute review of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, which is full of spoilers! So remember to turn it off if you don't want to know what happens.

Jason is now on his own, mostly, in his very own spin off series in this very meta outing of Jason King. Samantha and Dave go off course a few times and again forget to score the episode out of 120%. In an effort to create drama and cliffhangery you'll have to wait two episodes till Man in a Suitcase when the scores will be revealed (if they remember).

It's the news and it's slightly late. Well you'll have to let Dave off he's been doing them far too early on Wednsdays and a Friday release fells much more even keeled.

One of Dave's favourite series but not the strongest episode, broadcast in 1969 Department S follows an agent, a computer scientist and an author as they solve the unsolvable for Interpol. Towards the end of the episode things almost turn political but it's narrowly dodged.

Another round up of the latest news, rumours and outright fantasy from the web. I bit of news that broke just before this Podblast was edited and sent is the leaking of the Ant-Man 3 complete script! Personally I don't think Dave and Samantha are going to try read it before seeing the movie themselves.

It's 1972 again and another half hour series, like The Protectors, so you can probably guess which way the wind blows on this. Like The Baron, The Adventurer is about a man working for the government almost at his own leisure using his status as an 'In' for spy work all around the globe.

This week Samantha is exposed to the power of Harry Rule when Dave shows her the first episode of The Protectors. This 1972 classic is still (at the time of recording) aired in the afternoons here in the UK. As usual the first fifteen minutes is taken up with what they have been Watching, Listening and Playing. Oh and for the first time in a good while there's some mild swearing.

From now on the news section of the Podblast will be separate to the main episode in an attempt to be a little more up to date.

Today it's mainly about the DCU and the rumblings from Gunn.

The Zoo Gang Episode 1 Revenge Post Dated

With a week off due to ill health, which is addressed in episode, we're back with a winner! Samantha is all over this short lived classic ITC show and needs more.

As always we start with what Dave and Samantha have been watching, listening, playing and reading and then gives a news update, having a go at genre fans that need to start going the movies to support their corner.

About half an hour in the main review starts.

We've been asked about the dodgy pictures for each episode, Dave has been editing himself and Samantha into each of them for a while now (he's not very good at it but it makes him happy).

In a change to the schedule Samantha and Dave got a chance to visit the cinema when it was nice and quiet. At the end of the episode Dave asks if all our listeners would be kind enough to rate and comment on the Pilots Podblast through through Apple as it keeps them in the charts, thank you so very much.

After a few days off due to a dodgy moon cake Dave reconsiders the direction of the PodBlast. "It is time to go back to basics" he says and so it shall. With missing a week there is plenty of news to catch up with for now and with its 'ad hoc' nature this PodBlast does contain a couple of errors from Dave, Baron Zemo being one of them.
