4th Wall Breakers - The Big Short

Scary Non-Horrors - Return to Oz

Jack loves a horror film. Des hates a horror film. Paul doesn't really care about horror films. As a compromise to get a bit of a horror fix Jack has challenged his fellow FUDs with picking a scary non-horror! We're off to see the wizard... wait... no we're not. The yellow brick road has been left to ruin, the land of Oz looks like the wastelands of Mad Max and Dorothy is very likely a schizophrenic child suffering major delusions. We're not in Kansas anymore as Jack has chosen "Return to Oz" for us to watch! As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.

4th Wall Breakers - Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Oh hello there... I know usually you just read this in a passive voice and the fact that the blurb has become somewhat self aware is perhaps freaking you out... but fear not my intrepid FUD... we are simply breaking the 4th wall with our theme choice from Des. With Johnny Gossamer... there's always two cases that seem unrelated, then they come crashing together. Paul's film choice Kiss Kiss Bang Bang brings up several mysteries that may or may not be connected... Will Des ever not bring up age gaps? Will Jack ever not nitpick over logic and rules... and will Paul ever not argue over the stupidest critiques... The answer is no, and that's why you listen! As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.

4th Wall Breakers - High Fidelity

Oh hello there... I know usually you just read this in a passive voice and the fact that the blurb has become somewhat self aware is perhaps freaking you out... but fear not my intrepid FUD... we are simply breaking the 4th wall with our theme choice from Des. If there was an all time top 5 films that feature top 5 lists, our next pick from Jack would have to be somewhere in that conversation. High Fidelity takes us on an exploration of Rob's messy relationship situation and we decide to delve into our own relationship history and everything in between. Sub Question... Is this the most tangents in a single episode!? Yes... the answer is yes... As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.

4th Wall Breakers - The Big Short

Oh hello there... I know usually you just read this in a passive voice and the fact that the blurb has become somewhat self aware is perhaps freaking you out... but fear not my intrepid FUD... we are simply breaking the 4th wall with our new theme choice from Des. Now look, we all know that breaking the 4th wall is a bit of a fun and frivilous gimmick, but it can be used to great effect in serious and downright rage inducing films which are based on true stories, such as our first choice, also from Des... The Big Short! By the way... did you know Jack hates capitalism? As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.

The Bad Guy Wins - Inside Man

We're wrapping up the final film from our second "Fud's of Future Past" special. All of our partners used to be part of our film club! And they have some ideas for what we should talk about on the podcast... Jack's partner has decided to lead us down a dark cinematic path with a rare movie phenomenon... a film where the bad guy wins! Des has chosen Spike Lee Joint... Inside Man and the debate rages as to who the bad guy is, if they won and if it's actually ok to steal nazi gold. Jack even questions if it fits the criteria of the theme! As always prepare for some hot takes, deep film analysis, someone losing the plot, a bit of banter, a few good taglines, an existential crisis question, a wee quiz and our final scores.
