Just An Extended Toy Commercial Episodes

Ok, I was really hoping that Reegs would have written some notes, but alas that hasn't happened! We opted for a violent theme for this week's content. Nothing brings out ones violent tendencies more effectively than a family get together. That theory forms the basis of our Top 5 for this week - family fights. Earlier on this year we reviewed Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen. As I recall that movie split opinion down the middle of our dad based panel. We've returned to the filmography of Mr Ritchie ...

Just like most of the world’s population I'm hopelessly addicted to my smartphone, whether it be used to avoid talking to my family by playing a pointless grindy mobile game or to earn a small fortune by selling my exclusive Only Fans vegetable videos. But all talk of iPhones and Androids is off the table this week as we look back at the Top 5 Telephones in movies. If you’re a fan of the corded landline telephone like we are you'll enjoy reminiscing about those cabled beauties as they graced the...

It may not be obvious to our listeners but we do usually put quite a lot of thought into our choices for each weeks podcast, whether it's to link the main feature and kids tv programme thematically or to ensure we have an even distribution of the types and genres of movies we review. That same level of planning is often true of the Top 5 category, although this week I heard Sidey say something in the midweek mention and thought 'that will make a great top 5' so here we are with the Top 5 Title D...

We love money at Bad Dads, almost as much as we love a good old-fashioned armed robbery so we were very excited to discuss this weeks Top 5 Memorable Movie Bank Jobs. With elaborate heists and capers firmly off the table for discussion but no universal agreement on what that really means it's a fascinating and often riveting discussion. And I mean 'riveting' as in it is almost like the exact sensation of experiencing metal being banged into yet more metal. When a wealthy crime novelist apparent...

Have you guys heard about this thing called the internet? Well now we have too and having decided to take up residence there , you can experience more of our mediocre content at www.baddadsfilm.com - check it out! Whether it’s born of passion or a promise of death there’s nothing quite like a kiss in a scene to set our collective tongues wagging, as this week we discuss the Top 5 Memorable Movie Kisses. Perhaps your favourite snog made the list? After promising that we’d finished our seasonal ...

It takes time, money and meticulous planning to make a film but you wouldn't know it from some of the ridiculous goofs we discuss in our Top 5 Movie Continuity Errors. Some gaffs are more trivial than others but it seems like no film is safe from the perils of human error, from Hollywood blockbuster to indie darling and everything in between. Our main feature is Guy Ritchie's 2019 Amazon Prime release The Gentlemen. Featuring a return to the criminal underworld that brought Ritchie so much succ...

Hi everyone and thanks for tuning in. We start this weeks episode with quotes from Federico Fellini as we seek out and consider the truth of the artistic experience. It's not long before Reegs is gaslighting Howie though so don't worry that we have gone all highbrow and intellectual on you. I'm sure you were very worried about that. Our top 5 this week is about movie cameos and after 45 minutes of talking around the subject we still couldn't agree what a cameo actually was. Does the actor need...

The sweltering heat of the man cave has the Bad Dads sweating in places we'd rather not mention as we start this weeks session with a Top 5 about Smashed Windows. Was this everything it's cracked up to be? Was it a pane for us to compile? Will my Dad jokes get any worse? So many questions, and like glass coffins, remains to be seen. Our main feature this week is the 2017 Australian post apocalyptic horror/drama Cargo, directed by Ben Howling and Yolanda Ramke. Available on Netflix now, this mov...

In perhaps our most intellectual episode yet, the Bad Dads discuss such topics as class, Korean cinema, and consumerism. And what better place to start this cultural odyssey than the bathroom as we begin this weeks podcast with a toilet-scene themed Top 5. Urine for a treat as Peter reveals shocking secrets, Dan discusses proper bidet etiquette and Reegs confronts the other dads over a blatant lack of personal hygiene. Oh and there's some movie chat too. This weeks main feature was the 2019 Sou...

Peter Andre dropped by for a chat this week. Which was nice. We made a list of our favourite time travel movies. We kinda cheated this week too, you'll have to tune in to find out how. Reegs nominated another horror film for us to watch. Peter and Dan were thrilled by the prospect of watching a movie from behind the sofa! Was it scary though? Was it even a horror? The real horror this week was the kids TV nomination - Winx Club. This was truly something to behold. Do you think we'd recommend ...

Sometimes whilst making a podcast the stars align and everything comes together perfectly. This was so very nearly the case for us this week! We had missed making lists, so first up me discussed the best femme fatales. Have a listen and help us complete it. Our main feature this week was the 2013 Scarlett Johansson movie, Under the Skin. Not only was this a cracking movie, but we were extremely fortunate to be joined for a chat, by one of the stars of the film Mr Adam Pearson. We are very grat...

As lock-down fever catches up with us, we once again had a virtual meetup to discuss all things movies and kids TV. Top 5 topic of discussion this week was worst movie children. This one certainly had Dan stumped! The movie this week was nominated by James Ward Byrkit, director of Coherence. He very kindly nominated I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore. It's a real pain to type that title, just so you know. Also nominated by Mr JWB was our kids entertainment, Octonauts. JWB's son is a b...

Wow! What a week this was for the Bad Dads. With Dan reeling from a lack of Easter chocolate, we managed to get in a solid amount of tv viewing. Inspired by this week's main feature, we made a list of our favourite low budget movies. Cast your minds back a fortnight, we asked you guys to vote on this week's movie nomination. Coherence was the winner and so we obliged by watching it! Not only will you hear what we thought, but the actual bona fide director of the movie stopped by, via LA, for...

With all the miserable news coverage we have decided to lighten things up a bit. We compile our list of the most memorable movie deaths. There were some difficult choices to make there! The it's off to rural Sweden for a lovely folk tale of life in the countryside... Finally we take a journey to Equestria, where we endure the season 3 finale of My Little Pony. Can it stand hoof to hoof with Spirit? Listen in to find out... Get in touch to help us complete or list of movie deaths. And to argu...

No plastic dolls or giant mutant super pigs were harmed in the making of this episode! This week sees the Bad Dads in contemplative mood as we take on some heavier material with subjects such as corporate responsibility, veganism, battery farming, consumerism and materialism all discussed during our reviews of 2020 Best Picture winner Bong Joon Ho's OKJA and Netflix's BARBIE: LIFE IN THE DREAMHOUSE. We also attempt to list our top 5 Directors Debut's, thankfully Michael Bay's Bad Boys doesn't ...

The Bad Dads reconvened after Christmas to visit a galaxy far, far away... Like the rest of the world we've been to see The Rise of Skywalker. Listen in to see if we liked it. Unlike the rest of the world we watched Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure. Find out how the magic of Star Wars looks on screen when no one cares... Sidey then provides a dissertation on why Star Wars has been bad for cinema. See if he can dodge the punches aimed from the other Bad Dads. Finally, we running a real l...

The Bad Dads met at Anonymous Meeg's man cave to discuss the finer points of Kevin Smith's TUSK. In honour of national ninja day we discuss our top 5 Martial Arts movies, plus in a new feature we discuss the latest movie trailers and tv programmes that have grabbed our collective attention. Sadly we then subject ourselves to Mia & Me, Reegs's eldest child's favoured viewing material, following which Meeg explains just why he loves movies that have an ending. Finally, watch out for our new cus...

This weeks podcast features the 2014 Jon Favreau feelgood movie, Chef. After that we discuss merchandising behemoth and viral ear worm phenomenon, Paw Patrol, featuring an exclusive rendition of the theme tune by Kim Jong Il for some reason! A surprising contender emerges in the Top 5 Movies with a twist discussion and we finish with a diatribe from Reegs against the most evil director in Hollywood today. Feel free to argue with us on the social medias...

All aboard the Disney bandwagon!! Just like everyone else we've been to see Frozen 2 at the local multiplex. So don't worry about formulating your own opinion, just listen to ours!
