  • EP#156-Crimson Tide 1995
    2025/04/04

    In this episode, to honour the late, great Gene Hackman, Charlie and George are taking a deep dive on Crimson Tide!

    There's a lot to discuss, it's a Tony Scott film (so expect slick, sweaty visuals), two of the greatest actors squaring off in a confined space and a booming Hans Zimmer soundtrack, paving the formula for future Simpson/Bruckheimer productions.

    As usual, there's some juicy behind-the-scenes insight and some interesting alternative casting in Coulda Woulda Shoulda.

    It's that wonderful time of year again—Christmas! And what better way to celebrate than with a festive favourite film? This time, we're diving into a sequel to one of the biggest movies of the '80s: 1992's Batman Returns!

    Charlie and George take a deep dive into the superhero sequel where everything is ramped up - the villains, production design, classic Tim Burton weirdness and well, horniness.
