Welcome to the At The Flicks early Summer review show.\n\nEarly Summer I hear you say, as everyone prepares for Halloween.\xa0\xa0Ah, but the At The Flicks team are like fine wine, we age well (other than referring to someone in the present tense who passed away after we completed the show!).\xa0\xa0And just to compound that delay, this is only half of the show! The other half will be released tomorrow.\n\nTrust me, there is method behind the madness of that split.\xa0\xa0With our extended team of excellent reviewers (and Jeff), we are having more in-depth discussions on our chosen movies these days.\xa0\xa0We tried to edit them down, however, to be honest we just didn\u2019t know what to cut out.\xa0\xa0Although we all panicked when Graham started brandishing one of Elijah\u2019s excellent swords!\xa0\xa0But we argued, we just cannot drop a two hour review show on our listeners.\xa0\xa0Not even Jeff\u2019s wife wants to hear him whittering on for that length of time.\xa0\xa0So, we had to come up with another solution.\xa0\n\nThe answer is to split these shows in two now and in the future.\xa0\xa0\n\nIn future the format will be\n\nShow one - A topical movie discussion then two film reviews (and from next time a special something just for listeners).\n\nShow two -\xa0\xa0three in depth reviews.\xa0\n\nAnd we promise you that show two will always be released the day after show one.\xa0\xa0There\u2019s too much stress in the world as it is, we don\u2019t want to keep you waiting any longer than we have to for you to hear your favourite reviewer.\xa0\xa0Now that\u2019s an idea, maybe we can have a poll to decide who that is \u2013 no, strike that, Graham will just get his extended family to vote for himself multiple times.\n\nNow that\u2019s sorted, let\u2019s talk about our \u201ctopical\u201d discussion from a couple of months ago as featured in this edition.\xa0\xa0Since the recording, an aspect of the discussion is now out of date.\xa0\xa0Mainly because the director we referenced, William Freidkin, has sadly passed away since we recorded this episode.\xa0\xa0A great loss to cinema \u2013 and certainly to 1970\u2019s cinema.\xa0\xa0The Exorcist, The French Connection and the incredibly under rated Sorcerer \u2013 three of the best films of the decade.\xa0\xa0A magnificent talent, a sad loss.\n\nComing back up to date as this recording will allow, there are two extended reviews for you here, and they couldn\u2019t be more different\n\nAir : The story of the Michael Jordan shoe.\xa0\xa0Now in the previous review extravaganza, Darren blew everyone\u2019s mind with his alternate take on Tar.\xa0\xa0This time he does it again with Air.\xa0\xa0Listen to what he says and how everyone reacts to that. We have all had to watch this superior movie again.\n\nFast X : Jeff, the ultimate Fast and Furious fan leads this review.\xa0\xa0Is he mocked by the rest of the reviewers (wouldn\u2019t be the first time) or do they humour him as he calls it one of the best action films of all time? Check out our review to find out.\xa0\xa0Don\u2019t judge to harshly, remember he is still receiving treatment\n\nTomorrow, we release the second half of the show which has reviews of Guardians Of The Galaxy 3, Spiderman Across The Spider Verse and The Swimmers.\n\nFind out what the team think of that motley crew.\xa0\xa0See you then.\n\nBye for now.
