Posted on by

 

Do You Expect Us To Talk? is back to move on to the longest series since Bond. We finally begin to take on the might of Marvel that started its expanded universe ten years ago and still going strong. We start with the film that started it all and brought Robert Downey Jr a new crack of stardom. Iron Man sees eccentric playboy arms maker Tony Stark, get captured by terrorists using his own weapons. Waking up with a magnet on his chest drawing fragments away from his heart, he’s ordered to make more weapons while being held hostage in a cave, Stark decides to fight back building his own suit to escape. With a new found aspect of his life and the weight of responsibility, Stark takes his company in a new direction to rout of the evil within his company while working on a new suit.

Join Becca, Chris and Dave as we discuss the rise of Downey Jr career, where Gwyneth Paltrow had been prior to this film, Jon Favreau’s directing style, Jeff Bridges, cheeseburgers, is this film better than its remembered and disappointing last acts.

Ep 111 Goldeneye Commentary : Do You Expect Us To Talk?

Posted on by

It’s that time again when Do You Expects Us to talk regenerates to a new series, but before we do, we go back to Bond with a commentary. This time its Becca’s choice and it’s a firm Bond favourite starring everyone’s favourite clothes horse, Goldeneye. Hot off the success of the action classic’s Taffin, Live Wire and Death Train, Pierce Brosnan takes on his first outing as James Bond that resuscitated the franchise from the dead. The story sees Bond investigating a missing electromagnetic pulse satellite in Russia while stumbling into the plot and into the arms of a Bond Girl with no established relationship with one another before the action starts.

Listen to Becca, Chris and Dave as we discuss why everything is in the wrong order, what’s up with Q, the plot hole of how Alec Trevelyan faked his own death, Sean Bean getting second billing after already been killed off, Dave explains his frustrations with EON, how Dalton would have come back and Chris enjoyment of whisky after a strenuous exercise session.

This is the first episode in a while in what is some-what of a reboot of the podcast. The main format is very simple and strip back conversation between a guest and myself on anything film related. Tangents will happen of course as anything is open for discussion.

In this episode fellow co-host of Do You Expect Us To Talk, Dave Bond talks to me about how we started DYEUTT, thoughts on the new Logan film that contains some spoilers as well our feelings on the current news of The Matrix remake. Chris also makes sure that he’ll never get a chance to interview Ellen Page, what scares us as kids and we discuss what a load of old bollocks The Oscars are.

Hold on listeners… we’re going for ride. It’s our review of the second India Jones adventure, The Temple of Doom. This film is strangely a prequel (and we discuss as to why) and sees Indy escape from a Chinese crime boss and land himself in village in northern India, being asked to free its children from a cult practising black magic.

Starring Harrison Ford and Kate Capshaw as possibly the most annoying heroin in Hollywood movie history, Willie Scott. Also starring an equally annoying kid sidekick Short Round played by Jonathan Ke Quan. There’s also get side tracked with a tangent that may happen more often as this podcast continue.
