Episode 66: SUMMER OF SHARKS 2 #2 - Sharknado 3

Episode 66 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are your guides to an ongoing trek through  films of any year, any genre and any quality.
The Summer Of Sharks continues and this episode continues with the threequel motif from the last episode. It's time to jump back into the waters of The Asylum's finest as Hayley and Darren get caught up in SHARKNADO 3: OH HELL NO!
Expect talk of stunt casting, ridiculous action set-pieces, fish-related character names and THAT ending, which led to a Twitter poll that one of your hosts participated in.

It's time for another SUMMER OF SHARKS! Over the next few episodes Hayley and Darren will be wading into dangerous waters as they discuss another batch of flicks featuring their favourite aquatic menace!
To open the second summer of shark-based shenanigans, it's threequel time as your hosts head off to Sea World for JAWS III! There's no Martin Brody but there's lots of things being poked into your face, 3-D version or not! Does this Scheider-free sequel have the necessary bite?

Episode 64: A Good Day To Die Hard

Episode 64 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell discuss films of any genre, any year and any quality (they don't just pick the good ones).
In this episode, it's time to bid farewell to the Die Hard franchise as your hosts take a look at the final movie in the series, A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD! John McClane takes a trip to Moscow, intending to patch things up with his son, but soon he's involved in the usual destructive shenanigans that seem to follow him around.
How does this one stack up in relation to the other Die Hard movies and what's that all-important overall ranking of each film in the series? Only one way to find out (other than pestering the hosts on social media and even then they might not give out the answer)...

Episode 63: LISTENER’S CHOICE #2 - Watership Down

Episode 63 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are your hosts guiding you on a continuing journey through movies of any genre, any year and any quality.
This time, it's back to a Listener's Choice episode! We asked you to send in your picks for animated movies that we should cover and the one that was drawn from the HD hat was WATERSHIP DOWN as suggested by Charlie Brigden (@filmsonwax on Twitter).
It's a first watch for Hayley and a rewatch for Darren. How does the film work for Hayley as an adult and how does Darren get past the childhood trauma caused by his initial viewing of this? All will be revealed...

Episode 62: Die Hard 4.0

Episode 62 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Your hosts Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren are your guides to a continuing journey through movies of any year, any genre and any quality.
In this episode, Hayley and Darren continue their trawl through the Die Hard franchise and they've reached 2007's DIE HARD 4.0 (or Live Free Or Die Hard if you're in the US), which sees an older, grumpier John McClane facing cyber terrorists threatening the entire country!
Does a less sweary, less violent Die Hard mean less entertainment? Of course we're not going to reveal that here, you're just going to have to listen...

Episode 61: Kazaam...and the Mandela Effect

Episode 61 of the The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are your hosts on this continuing odyssey into movies of any year, any genre and any quality.
In this episode, mystery and confusion reign supreme as Hayley and Darren talk 90s Shaq genie movie KAZAAM! But why are they not also covering the Sinbad genie movie SHAZAAM (or SHAZAM)? There's a fascinating story surrounding this one and you'll want to stick around to see where the chat goes...
Is the music on The HD Movie Podcast written and performed by Mitch Bain or is it a hoax? Of course it's real and Mitch is @whoelsebutmitch on Twitter, evertheoptimitch on Instagram.

Episode 60: Last Night In Soho/A Boy Goes Cycling

Episode 60 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Your hosts Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are here to talk movies of any year, any genre and any quality.
In this landmark sixtieth episode, it's time to go back to the Swinging Sixties with two very different titles. First up, it's Edgar Wright's LAST NIGHT IN SOHO in which fashion student Eloise (played by Thomasin McKenzie) finds herself in a waking, time-travelling nightmare! It was Hayley's top horror film of 2021 but does she still think this was and does Darren share her enthusiasm?
In stark contrast to the dazzling visuals of Last Night In Soho, the supporting feature is a somewhat more muted portrayal of the era. A BOY GOES CYCLING features a boy, er, going cycling as he and his mates try to pass that pesky Cycling Proficiency Test, complete with Johnny Morris voiceover!

Episode 59: Bad Moms

Episode 59 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Your hosts Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are here once more with their take on movies of any year, any genre and any quality.
It's a Mother's Day Special as Hayley (who's a mum herself) and Darren (who's been called a mother several times but isn't actually one) talk 2016's BAD MOMS starring Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn. Treat your mum to a bunch of flowers, a nice Sunday lunch and this podcast episode.
Is it fair to describe the film as a female version of The Hangover? How come Hollywood expects us to accept that schlubby blokes will cheat on amazing women? And will Darren manage to get through the episode without professing his love for the aforementioned Ms Hahn? Spoiler on that last one: he doesn't.

Episode 58: Die Hard With A Vengeance

Episode 58 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Your hosts Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell are ready, willing and able to take a look at films of any year, any genre and any quality.
It's back to the Die Hard franchise this week as Hayley and Darren hit the third out of five movies with the New York antics of DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE! Who nearly played Zeus Carver? What happened in the alternative ending? Who was the 21st President of the United States? All the above questions - well, two of them - will be answered in this very episode!
