In this episode, Leslie and Matthew are joined by the host of Random Top Five, the hilarious Randy California.   Together, they talk about their favourite time travel movies and what would happen if, through slipstream paradoxes and science, characters from different time travel movies were to meet.

This week, Leslie and Matthew take a break from talking about the most critically acclaimed movies of all time to instead gaze over two of Vin Diesel’s own efforts, in order to create their own monster of an action blockbuster.   Listen as Leslie introduces Matthew to some rad stunt sequences and Matthew takes some time out of his backside to actually enjoy what some critics called ‘a movie’.   0:00 - Intro 4:53 - Our thoughts on Furious 7 29:43 - Our thoughts on XXX: The Return...

Eat Pray Love! Game Night! Entourage! None of these movies feature in today’s episode!   This week, Leslie and Matthew discuss the Internet Movie Database’s favourite movies.

In this week’s episode, Leslie and Matthew talk about what they think would happen if The Gang from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia happened to bump into the six friends from that show… I can’t remember what it’s called, it’s about this group of twenty-somethings, they’re all friends, some of them become boyfriends and girlfriends, sometimes they stay as friends, sometimes the ones who were a couple go back to being just friends and… that’s what it’s called! JUST FRIENDS.   0:00 -...

This week, Leslie and Matthew veer away from sequels. They’re focusing on the two-word, one-hyphen combo that’s guaranteed to pay off creatively: spin-off!

This time, they decide to drop Weird Al Yankovic into A Star Is Born. What will happen? Will Leslie and Matthew be able to come up with lyrics for parody songs off the top of their heads? And would a Daft Punk/Bradley Cooper sequel work?   Answers The plot of the movie, but with Weird Al. No. Oh, undoubtedly. 0:00 -...

This week on Chatting Pitch, Leslie and Matthew try something a little different. It’s a recasting, but it’s a different kind of recasting.
