Episode 88: Top 10 Fantasy Films / Underworld: Blood Wars / Allied

This week crack out your wands, sharpen those double-handed broadswords, and get ready to ride a dragon or three, because the guys are counting down their best ever fantasy films! With nary an AD&D reference, Paul and Wayne manage to pinpoint a working definition of a fantasy film before launching into their lists - and for a time it looks like all the controversy will be limited to Wayne's #10. But oh no. Wait until you hear what he has in store as his all time favourite fantasy film. And don't forget to let the guys know what you think of his choice... There's also two new release reviews for this week, with the Robert Zemeckis film Allied and the fifth in the Underworld series, Underworld: Blood Wars both being put through their paces. And, well, one of them is bad enough for #Negatron to finally get his own theme (It shouldn't be hard to guess which one!) And finally, as per the discussion in this Episode, leave us a positive rating on iTunes to MAKE WAYNE WATCH THE GODFATHER SERIES! Help Paul right a huge wrong by submitting a rating (and review if you have the time), and once five more have been collected, Wayne has to watch The Godfather. Seven and he's also in for The Godfather 2. Hell, let's get 10 and make him sit through The Godfather 3 as well - that'll learn him! You can find the show on iTunes @ https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/countdown-movie-tv-reviews/id979577413?mt=2 #PodernFamily promos played this week are for Dan and Caleb at the @netflixnswill podcast and for Dan and Kenton at the @media_nerds podcast - which also happened to featur Paul in its latest Ep talking the best Christmas films of all time.
